UTILIZATION OF ROBOTICS FOR SOLAR PANEL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Öz:
In this study, a portable and low-cost solar panel cleaning robot with a functioning to blowaway dust was designed and built to incur labor costs.The robot is service effective, environmentallyfriendly, energy independent, self-automated, long durable, and cost-effective. After cleaning operation,output voltage and current in solar panel increased by 8.02% and 18.78%, respectively. Moreover, theimage processing with the photos taken by a camera fixed on the robot made classification according tocolor changes in the solar panel. Therefore, it can be concluded that the automated and multifunctionalrobot may facilitate the solar panel surface cleaning and be an applicable maintenance method throughremote monitoring of the surface conditions.

Güneş Paneli Temizliği ve Bakımı için Robotik Sistemin Uygulanması

Öz:
Bu çalışmada, taşınabilir, düşük maliyetli ve toz üfleme işlevine sahip bir güneş paneli temizleme robotu tasarlanmış ve üretilmiştir. Robot servis etkin, çevre dostu, enerji bağımsız, kendinden otomatik, uzun ömürlü ve uygun maliyetlidir. Temizleme işleminden sonra, güneş panelinin çıkış voltajında ve akımında sırasıyla %8,02 ve %18,78 artış görülmüştür. Ayrıca, robot üzerindeki kamera ile çekilen fotoğraflara uygulanan görüntü işleme, güneş panellerindeki renk değişimlerine göre sınıflandırma yapmıştır. Dolayısıyla, çok fonksiyonlu otomasyon robotun güneş panellerinin yüzey temizlenmesini kolaylaştıracağı ve yüzey koşullarının uzaktan izlenmesi suretiyle bakımına olanak sağlayan uygulanabilir bir yöntem olacağı sonucuna varılabilir.
