Effect of tilt angle of building-integrated wind turbine and photovoltaic fa�ade on wind pressure and solar radiation

This study investigated the potential impacts of wind pressure and incident solar radiation on a building tilted fa�ade installed with micro wind turbine and photovoltaic panels as a second skin fa�ade for generating electricity. The wind pressure will affect wind turbine rotation and solar radiation will affect energy produced by the photovoltaic. The study used simulation modelling software to analyse the wind pressure and solar radiation received on the tilted fa�ade. The research found that the pressure received by the tilted fa�ade is larger than that received by the 90� tilted fa�ade. The smaller the tilted angle of the fa�ade, the more radiation received by the PV panel. Conversely, the larger tilted angle of the building fa�ade, the less radiation received by the photovoltaic, despite the wind pressure received by the wind turbine being higher than that received by the 90� tilt fa�ade. However, the more radiation received by the fa�ade, the more heat received by the building.
