Solar Panels Evaluation Through a ۳D Simulation

This is a study of a solar panel structure placed in a periodic flow field. The solar panel in question is located inside a regularly spaced array of panels subjected to an oncoming strong wind. The model solves for the flow around the panel and the structural displacement due to the fluid load. It is assumed that enough panels are positioned both upstream and downstream of the panel for periodic flow conditions to be applicable in the streamwise direction
