Last week the solar team and I decided to improve the design of the solar panel system on the Spartan Superway. The current design incorporates a tracking system, that tracks the position of the sun. The team and I realized that having a tracking system might be difficult to incorporate in the real world. We had to keep in mind the track would stretch for miles, and installing tracking systems would be too difficult. Also, we thought about the maintenance and other issues that might occur in the future.
Ron Swenson showed us a solar panel from last years solar team, that was flexible. We thought that if we are able to form a curve on the solar panel, we would not need a tracking system. All we had to do was design a mount that can support the panel as well as, easy to install. We learned that the flexible solar panel was not very efficient and further examination it looked that the flexible solar panel would be difficult to mount. The flexible solar panel had a protective layer, if the layer is breached water can destroy the solar panel.
