Performance comparison of the sun tracking system and fixed system in the application of heating and lighting

الملخص EN

In this work, a sun tracking system application is used for water heating and street lighting in Van.

The solar photovoltaic system is designed for a house whose power is 5 kilo-Watts.

An experimental setup is carried out for 183 Watts.

An optimal variant is chosen with respect to stiffness and lightness conditions.

A sun tracking device was used for rotating the solar still with the movement of the sun.

A comparison between fixed and sun tracked solar stills showed that the use of sun tracking increased productivity by around 29 %.

It can be concluded that the sun tracking system is more effective than the fixed system and is capable of enhancing productivity.
