A solar panel is consisting of solar cells to generate electricity. The output of the panel relies upon on different factors like semiconductor utilized in manufacturing of solar cell, type of solar cell, tilt angle of the solar collector, environmental factors like wind, dust, shading etc. in this document characterization of the solar panel and its behavior at various tilt angles is studied. For a fixed installed solar panel, it is very essential to mount a panel at an angle in which the

... ctor will receive the maximum radiations. Therefore the tilt angle primarily based overall performance of the panel is checked. While automation is introduced, a solar panel can be made to rotate in direction of the sun called solar tracker. Subsequently a solar tracker usually tries to adjust its position in perpendicular to the sun. A water pumping application is designed for remote place where grid connected supply is not available. This report offers information about characterization and behavior of solar panel at different tilt angles, overall performance of solar tracker to increase the output of the panel and pumping application that can be designed for agriculture or household use. https://journalnx.com/journal-article/20150165
