Pemanfaatan Cahaya Matahari untuk membangkitkan Energi pada Pompa Penyiraman Tanaman Pekarangan dengan Penambahan Cermin Reflektor

ABSTRACT


Installation of mirrors on solar panels at an angle of 90 for watering the yard to optimize the use of solar energy. Using the mirror on the panel to charge the 7.5 Ah battery 2 hours faster than the mirrorless charging. The result of using a mirror on a solar panel affects the voltage increase every hour by 0.7%. Power is used to operate the DC pump for watering plants, with a 24 watt power requirement of 1 day. The excess power on the battery can be used for 3 days of watering without charging. The mirror on the panel, there is an increase in the surface temperature of the panel by 1.0%, but it does not have a significant effect on the increase in panel tension. Another factor that dominantly affects the output panel, which is based on the weather based on the BMKG of 94.1%.
