Dynamic Modeling and Energy Optimization of Solar Tracking Systems Using Lagrange’s Equations of Motion

The data set contains 20 sheets documenting a solar-tracking system study. It combines metadata, literature comparisons, mechanical and geometric parameters, generalized coordinates, dynamic variables, inertial, aerodynamic, irradiance, and control parameters. It also includes simulation scenarios and time-series outputs for solar position, trajectory tracking, torque, motion, wind response, actuator power, and net energy gain. Key results compare a proposed dual-axis tracker with a fixed baseline, showing PV energy capture, tracking-energy consumption, net useful energy, and improvement percentages. Sensitivity sheets examine inertia and wind effects, while validation data compares tracking accuracy, disturbance recovery, torque, and energy performance with published studies.
