Question
The solar panel measurements give parameters that directly apply to a Norton model. However, a Thévenin model will simplify the analysis process. Perform a source transformation on the solar panel and redraw the full circuit, with the Thévenin equivalent model included.
Using a circuit analysis technique of your choosing, calculate the mesh currents and power balance of the system at midday when the solar panel and the wind generator both deliver their rated currents. Show all working. Comment on the effectiveness (calculate percentages) of the power transfer from the solar panel and wind generator to the battery and radio repeater. What power is dissipated in the wiring?

What is the area covered by the solar panels (in square meters)? How much solar power is coming to the solar panels? (state your assumptions) Assume each solar panel is rated for about 100 W of generating capacity. What is the total generating capacity of the whole solar garden? How much power is being generated each day during this period? (based on the table below) What does that indicate about the efficiency of these panels in converting solar energy into electricity? Compare to your answers for B and C.
