Calculate the angle of incidence for the PV panel installed in
Brampton, at 3:00 p.m. July 10, facing due south with a tilt angle
same as the latitude. If the solar insolation at this point is 1000
W/m2 ,calculate the insolation collected by the panel.
To find the solar insolation collected by the PV panel we need to know the panel efficiency and area of the panel. Otherwise it may be equal to the value of incident solar insolation as it fall normally on the surface of the panel.
