The Components Of An Automatic Weather Station
Automatic weather stations are extensively used to collect data from sites and locations which are remote, difficult to access or even from other locations to save the human labor and avoid human error.
Automatic Weather Stations (AWS) For Farms And Other Agricultural Applications
Crop produce around the world is largely dependent on local weather conditions. Other than few crops which are cultivated in greenhouses or controlled environments, most of the agricultural activity is very closely
Why Do Solar Power Plants Need Weather Monitoring Station (WMS)?
Weather Monitoring Station (WMS) is one of the most crucial instruments installed in Solar PV Power plants. A weather monitoring station can be immensely helpful in monitoring the efficiency and performance of any solar power plant
How To Find Out Correct Number Of Weather Monitoring Stations For a PV Solar Plant?
One of the most common questions that our clients ask us is what is the number of WMS that they need to install so as to satisfactorily monitor the complete plant. The number of WMS required to properly
How and Where One Should Install the Weather Monitoring Station on the Solar Plant?
Location of the weather monitoring station significantly affects the data gathered and reported by it. It is observed that many times, WMS is installed at such locations that it gives incorrect data about the various parameters, killing the entire purpose of installing a weather monitoring station.
Sun Tracking Solutions For CSP And PV Solar Plants For Improved Efficiency
To generate maximum power from the solar PV modules, the solar panels must be pointed in the right direction so as to capture most of the energy from the sun rays. A solar panel collects the maximum solar radiation when the sun rays strike it exactly at 90 degrees. Any misalignment will lower down the energy being captured by the modules.
Gyroscopes And Their Types
Gyroscopes are the most important part of an inertial navigation system or any guidance system. Gyroscopes were invented a century ago and have been used as references to know the inertial state of a moving body. From Kettering bug to the Apollo spacecraft,
Role Of Tilt Sensors In Solar Tracking
Tilt sensors significantly impact the output of solar power plants (CSP) and hence, are commonly used for solar tracking. Though the importance of solar tracking and the boost in production due to it is proven, there is a lot of confusion around how this systems works and what are the expected gains out of it.
Inclinometers: Solution For Leveling And Alignment Applications In The Construction Industry
Professionals like architects, engineers, surveyors, and contractors working in the construction industry always keep with them a comprehensive toolkit for carrying out different measurements on site. Of all the parameters that need to be measured on site during design as well as construction phases, alignment and level are very critical ones.
Calibration Of A Digital Magnetic Compass
A digital magnetic compass is an indispensable part of any ship or vessel sailing in the sea. A digital magnetic compass consists of a magnetometer which relies on earth’s magnetic field to indicate the direction. The output of the magnetic compass is susceptible to
