Análisis dinámico y diseño estructural de una plataforma de acceso para un FPV sobre el embalse de Mazar.

Abstract

El sistema de anclaje demuestra ser estable para varios escenarios de carga. Finalmente, este trabajo realiza un diseño estructural preliminar de los componentes principales, incluyendo los sistemas de acceso, poleas, ejes y pontones. The increasing demand of energy has increased from the second half of the twentieth century, which has lead to exploitation of fossil fuels. Nowadays, we try to compensate this demand alternative sources, e. g. solar energy, using photovoltaics systems (PV). PV systems have limitations on large areas for their deployment and overheating. To solve these issues the industry has proposed the use of hybrid and floating solar photovoltaic (FPV) systems. The FPV has the advantage of using available sheltered seas and reservoir areas, however, water evaporation cools down the solar panels. The anchor systems used in the applications are suitable for constant water levels, however, there are useless for large level variations such as that of Mazar. This work proposes a solution for FPV systems with large water level variations. The proposed system is composed of anchor lines, pulleys and suspended masses that counteract wind, wave and current forces. The anchor system proves to be stable for various load scenarios. Finally, this work conducts a preliminary structural design of main components including access systems, pulleys, shafts and pontoons.
