Abstract: | Solar panel technology system utilizes solar radiation to generate electricity, and it is
very important to absorb and capture maximum energy output. This study aims to find
the yearly optimal tilt angle to maximize the cumulative energy output. This study was
conducted in Cyprus, and the solar panel true in the south, because Cyprus is in the
Northern Hemisphere, and the solar panel should be in the south. During the research,
several methods considering different conditions such as clearness index, extraterrestrial
radiation on a tilted surface, ground reflection were discussed, and then the results of each method based on Cyprus latitude is observed. The Rhino 3D program and the
Grasshopper plug-in program have been used to find maximum solar radiation and the
optimum tilt angle. The data for this study were collected from the Energy Plus
Weather data website. The data are used to calculate and evaluate the beam and diffuse
and ground-reflected solar radiation and total solar radiation for different tilt angles
between 0
º
and 90º
and the value of 180º
for azimuth angle by Tilt and Orientation
Factor component inside the Grasshopper. By using the program, the total maximum
solar radiation is about 2075 kWh/m2,
and the optimum tilt angle is approximately 29º

Güneş enerjısi teknoloji sistemleri güneş ışığını kullanarak elektrik enerjisi üretirler.
Azami enerji çıktısı içın Güneş enerjısi yakalayabilmek çok önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın
amacı yıllık toplam enerji çıktısının azami olabılmesi için gerekli optimal panel açısını
belirlemektir. Bu çalışma Kıbrıs için yapılmıştır. Güneş paneli gerçek güneye bakacak
şekilde sabitlenmiştir. Araştırma sırasında, netlik endeksi, eğim yütyine düşen güneş
ışığını, zemin yansıması gibi faktörler ele alınmıştır. Rhino 3D programı ve
Grasshopper program eki kullanılarak gerekli hesaplamalar yapılmış, optimal eğim
açısı bulunmuştur. Bu çalışmanın verileri "Energy Plus Weather" veri web sitesinden
toplanmıştır. Yerden yansıyan, direk ve dağınık güneş ısığı 0º ile 90º derece eğim
açıları ve 180º azimuth açıları için hesaplanmıştır. Bu çalışma neticesinde en çok enerji
çıktası alınabilen (2075 kwh/m2) panel eğim açısının yaklaşık 29º olduğu
hesaplanmıştır.
