1. Introduction Roof mounted photovoltaic (PV) panel systems are widely used in modern society. The natural flow of wind effectively reduces the elevated temperature and the direction of wind flow plays a very prominent role in heat evacuation for PV panel systems (Agrawal et al 2021).
Kopp (2014) investigated wind load on Multi-row solar panels by adopting building with height ranging from 7.3 m to 21.9 m, influence of building height, aspect ratio and panels tilt angle on wind effect on panels are studied. Results show that wind loads do not obviously depend on tilt angle, for arrays with tilt angle of 10° and above.
Wang et al (2018) studied the effects of parapet height on wind loads of solar panels on flat roof, and found that most critical positive peak pressure coefficients generally decrease with increase of parapet height. Meanwhile, Banks (2013) and Kopp (2014) claimed that conical vortices of buildings play a key role on wind effect of solar panels.
