Sun Tracking Solar Panel Project Using 8051

This paper gives the design and construction of 8051 microcontroller for solar panel tracking system to produce solar energy.

Sun tracking solar panel project using 8051.

Solar energy is a very large inexhaustible source of energy. This project orients the solar panel toward the sun so that it can utilize with higher accuracy. If intensity on one side of solar panel is greater than the other side of panel then dc motor is turned on to rotate the solar panel. This article describes about circuit that rotates solar panel.

In this method we rotate the solar panel with the help of stepper motor with the direction of sun light. With the exhaustive use of non renewable energy we have finally landed on a platform of using renewable sources. Index terms microcontroller 8051 stepper motor ldr sensor solar panel sun tracking software. For flat panel applications trackers are.

The sun tracking system is designed in this project offers a reliable and affordablemethod of aligning a solar panel with the sun on single axis. The demand for energy is increasing day by day. Objective the aim of our projects is to utilize the maximum solar. This project measures and displays light intensity of sun.

System sends this data to a computer through serial port. Embedded c or assembly. The power from the sun intercepted. This project is based on microcontro ller 8051 with a simple circuit and sun tracking software.

Lcd displays this value. Keywords renewal non renewable solar energy microcontroller signal tracker. The sun trackers are all weather reliable and affordable tracking and positioning instruments. Solar tracking system produces more energy since the solar panel remains aligned to the sun.

So solar panel should continuously rotate in the direction of sun. What if we can optimize the usage of this energy too. Solar tracking system using 8051 microcontroller 1. The sun tracking solar panel consists of two ldrs solar panel and a servo motor and atmega328 micro controller.

Here is an innovative idea of using solar energy to it s best possible extent. Solar tracking system using 8051 microcontroller 1 2. Sun solar tracking system. Principle of sun tracking solar panel.

Sun tracking solar panel the hardware and software requirements of the sun tracking solar panel project include 8051 series microcontroller dummy solar panel stepper motor voltage regulator diodes relay driver ic transformer keil compiler and languages.
