Summary

Making a Solar Panel

The goal of this project is to make a tilted support for solar panels.

I consider that motorize my "small" panel will be against production.

Nevertheless, which orientation to choose?
This project is here to answer your question.

This model is quite good for my location ( error <0.15° for Azimuth )

I want a global solution, so enter your GPS coordinate in customizer and get your part for your location

You can use this project for educational purpose too

Be aware that make iteration to calculate correct angle is quite long if you want precise result.... :-) ( about 1-30 minutes )

You shouldn't output your part from customizer online, you may need to use openScad to get more precise model

I' m Waiting for ASA / PETG filaments to print my part,

Hope you enjoy with my project,
Please report me any bug or suggestion :-)

update :
18/12/03 add simulation view of oneDayOptimisation and dailyYearOptimisation
18/12/01 upgrade for some fail location
