Étape 1 - Sizing : moment of inertia measurement

We set two axis for our module:

one axis Oz perpendicular to the module plane (vertical when the module is flat) and one axis Ox paralelle to the module plane (horizontal when the module is flat)

Caractéristics of the module:

mass: m=21,2 kg

Length: L=1,8m

Width: 1m

Wikipedia theory tells us intertia moment along Oz axis is :

Jdelta=1/12*m*L

Jdelta=1/12*1,8*21,2=3,18Nm

Nb: we suppose the module is a bar because here the rotation axis is the axis paralell to the plane of the rectangle formed by the module and not the perpendicular axis

We now experimentally verify:

Center the module on the plate lifter and put it horizontally

verify there is no wind

check the level on which the mast of the plate lifter is put

fix a horizontal lanmark at the bottom of the module

set a 500g mass at the extremity of the module

measure the distance between the position at equilibrium and the position with the mass

We have:

Jdelta=d*F

with d distance in meter to the axis of rotation

F force applied to the solid (here mg with m solid mass in kg and g gravitational constant)

We then have

Jdelta=0,9*0,5*9,8=4,41Nm

We measure the rotation: in our case, the distance of rotation at the extremity of the module varies between 3 and 10cm. The important variations

are due to frictions on the axis that can force or slide more freely

The order of magnitude of the inertia momen is verified

For the moment of inertia along axis Ox, it is more difficult to verify experimentally, because the axise of the plate lifter doesnt allow

to have a position at equilibrium with the module mass (which will finish on the stop under its own weight)

Therefore, we will accept the theory:

The theory says

Jdelta=1/12*m(b²+c²) with m mass of the module, b lenght of the short side of the module and c length of the long side of the module

Jdelta=1/12*21,2*(1,8²+1²)=7,49NM

This theoretical result is strongly lower than the weigth of the module, so we will size based on the necessary force to lift the weigth of the module (the axis being submitted to the weight):

F=mg=21,2*9,8

In order of magnitude 200Nm (1m of lever arm in order of magnitude)

We have now the caracteristics to size the engines of our module along two rotation axis

But the trackers have a consequent wind exposure

If we want to take into account the resistance to the wind, we must measure the force applied to the module according to wind speed:

Fp​=1/2*ρ*v²*S*Cp

With ​ρ air density equal to 1,2 kg/m3 in order of magnitude for standard temperature and pressure conditions

v wind speed in m/s

S object surface in m²

Cp pressure coefficient without dimension égal to 2 for a rectangular metal plate

We have:

Fp=1/2*1,2*1,8*2*v²=2,16*v²

Chatgpt can give us the abacus of wind speeds in km/h and their conversions in m/2 and the generic name in meteorology

Calm: Less than 1 km/h (Less than 0.3 m/s)

Very light breeze: 1-5 km/h (0.3-1.5 m/s)

Light breeze: 6-11 km/h (1.6-3.0 m/s)

Gentle breeze: 12-19 km/h (3.4-5.4 m/s)

Moderate breeze: 20-28 km/h (5.5-7.9 m/s)

Fresh breeze: 29-38 km/h (8.0-10.7 m/s)

Strong breeze: 39-49 km/h (10.8-13.8 m/s)

Moderate wind: 50-61 km/h (13.9-16.9 m/s)

Near gale: 62-74 km/h (17.2-20.6 m/s)

Gale: 75-88 km/h (20.8-24.4 m/s)

Strong gale: 89-102 km/h (24.7-28.3 m/s)

Storm: 103-117 km/h (28.6-32.5 m/s)

Hurricane: At least 118 km/h (At least 32.8 m/s)

So we have a Force Fp that can vary from

An order of magnitude of 20N for a ligth breeze

to

An order of magnitude of 2000N for a storm

(NB: the gravity force of 1kg is approximately 10N so the force of 2000N corresponds in order of magnitude to the gravity force of 200kg).

The inertia moments on the axis are of the same order of magnitude (20Nm and 2000Nm) because the dimensions of the module are an order of magnitude of 1 m

If you want to build a tracker that can resist to storm conditions, it is advised to size the tracker consequently

On the one hand with sufficient ties in the ground, and on the other hand with an adapted frame -see caravan tips at the end of this stage-, and deactivate

when there are stronger winds.)

Wind resistance sizing is one of the reasons trackers are expensive et less generalized than standard photovoltaic installations

The step motors and servomotors that have an adequate torke to resist to important winds are expensive, et that can be understandable for motors designed for step precision

(For example here: https://www.distrelec.fr/fr/automatisation/moteurs-et-entrainements/moteurs-pas-pas-et-servocommandes/c/cat-L3D_525513 )

For hydraulic cylinders, the driving force is generally in orders of magnitude fitting to resist to storms.

For our low-tech tutorial, we know that core drilling machines have torque in an order of magnitude fitting to resist to storms (1W corresponds to 1 N multiplying 1 meter per second, so a core drilling machine of 2000W should have an adequate torque of more or less 2000Nm).

After verification on the technical caracteristics of drills, impact screwdriver, and after a manual verification of resistances (brake,clutch) when the engine is not powered, this type of engine doesnt fit.

To size a resistance to winds between the storm and hurricane we will proceed differently:

We find on aliexpress a affordable prices (70€) step motors or endless screw motors with torque in an order of magnitude of 20Nm(200kgcm). We will use thi engine with two reductors 1:10 to get a resisting torque of 2000Nm.

Recall: the torque expressed in Nm is a rotation force produced by the motor that can be computed with the same principle of the inertia moment: the force in newton x the distance to the rotation axis

Belt or chain transmission permit to reduce this torque, and that can be calculated very easily

C1=(R1/R2)*C2

With C1 torque on pulley 1

R1 pulley 1 radius

C2 torque on pulley 2

R2 pulley 2 radius

The radius is directly proportional to the number of teeth of a gear wheel (a bike cog or a motorcycle cog for example), we can easily calculate the transmission reduction by dividing the number of teeth of the big cog by the number of teeth of the little cog (verify they have the same teeth standards)

Therefore a transmission 80 teeth/10 teeth (80T/10T) will produce a reduction of 1:8, like here on amazon for an electric bike ("Keenso Kit Chaîne et Pignon 80T 25H 34mm 3 Trous Pignon 10T H Trou Chaîne Pignon 146 Maillons Chaîne") for 30€.

We will notice that a standard bike transmission have a maximum transmission reduction of 50 teeth/11 teeth so a reduction of 1:5, which is not enough for efficient reduction witouth multiplying pulleys

It is difficult to find transmissions with reduction of 1:10, but we find some on aliexpress and we will easily adapt a bicycle drive on which we will weld cogs, which will allow us a reduction of 1:100 with only one axis added in addition to the principal axis and the engine axis

So we will use an engine step motor or an endless screw engine (resistance unpowered test at reception) commanded by a raspberry pi (but the plate lifter has wheels, so we will take the precaution to put away the tracker when there's a storm ;))

Carvan tips: to size the width of the metal frame, modern norms dont seem to be really made on scientific basis but on commercial basis. We will therefore measure the width of old material (made in the 70s). For example, the frame of this old caravan accredited on its registration document for a 750kg weigth has a metal frame of 5mm width. On can then make a rule of 3 to verify the width of our frame fits.

This is rustic style (strenght of material calculs is rigorous and complex), but it allows to have a firest approximation "a visto de nas" as we say in gascon

Étape 3 - Sizing: measurement of angles and displacement

We will first look at the solar trajectory

We measure typically the sun position along two coordinate systems:

the equatorial system with coordinates expressed in:

right ascension equivalent to terrestrial longitude measured in hours minutes seconds

declination equivalent to terrestrial latitude measured in degrees minutes seconds

The horizontal system with coordinates expressed in:

azimut degree

altitude degree or height

The solar trajectory abacus (for example available here https://www.astrolabe-science.fr/diagramme-solaire-azimut-hauteur ) give us the sun trajectories in a day (generally several typical days of several seasons) expressed in horizontal degrees.

To read this type of grap

If we follow the graph inserted in this tutorial and from the link above, when we follow for example the red curb for paris, we can read :

The 21st of december, when we look at the south, the sun follows a trajectory that starts at -50° azimut (along the East on the horizontal axis) at dawn, then when the sun goes west during the day (we follow the red curb), it takes height until it reaches 17° height (on the vertical axis) at noon (position 0° azimut on the horizontal axis) and then goes down again to 0° height when it sets (along the West on the horizontal axis)

For Paris, we have:

One degree azimut varying from -130° to +130° according to the hour and the season

One degree altitude or height varying from 0° to 64° according to the hour and the season

For our tracker,

To calculate our horizontal displacement (along the Oz vertical axis if the module is put down on the ground), on don't really have constraints on the plate lifter used since the axis turns 360° without problems.So we can follow the sun from -130° azimut to +130° azimut without problem.

To calculate our vertical displacement (along the Ox horizontal axis if the module is put on the ground), we have a constraint on the maximal angle.

I dont have a decimeter at hand, so I will use pythagore (see photo):

64cm*150cm*134cm

socatoa:

sinus phi=opposé/hypothenus

sinus phi=134/150

sinus phi=134/150

phi=1,1046 rad

phi=1,1046*180/pi=63°

We have a constrainte for our plate lifter accepting angles along the Ox axis from 0° to 63°

When the tracker is at its maximum angle (63°), we are perpendicular to the sun when the sun is at an angle phi of phi=180-63-90=27°

When the sun has an angle lower than 27°, the tracker can not follow and keep being perpendicular to the sun

We see however that the stop is guaranteed by the spring (on the photo we sse the mark on the paint). We can win a bit of amplitude on the stop by drilling and making a notch in the jib).

The manual measurement of the displacement between the tube axis on which is fixed the crank handle and the back of the module when the plate lifter leans at its maximum angle gives us 42cm. (see photo)

Étape 4 - Install the hydraulic cylinder on the horizontal axis

We will fix a jib on the fix part of the plate lifter that turns with the vertical axis, so we can fix a rod on which we will fix the hydraulic cylinder which will be able to turn with the vertical axis so it can adjust the angle on the horizontal axis.

We begin by fixing the metal jib welding to the fix part regarding the vertical axis. It requires to sand the paint before the welding is done (see photo). We do arc welding here.

Then we drill a metal rod we will screw to the jib (see photo).

We drill et we fix a metal rod we screw to the mobile part that allows to adjust the angle on the horizontal axis, ie the arm that permits to carry the plate or the photovoltaic module (see photo).

We then fix the hydraulic cylinder to the two metal rods. The hydraulic cylinder is equiped with fixing that adjust to the angle taken by the rods on which it is fixed (see photo)

Notice we have a metal rod with a right angle that avoid this fix is totally free. It will stop on a part of the rod, which permits then to calibrate more precisely the hydraulic cylinder amplitude).

We then test the course of the hydraulic cylinder. We will pay attention, because the stop of the plate lifter corresponds to a 40cm course for the hyrdaulic cylinder and it can extend up to 50cm. (see photos)

Étape 5 - Raise the plate lifter maximum angle

After observing the critical elements, we will modify the jib to avoid a stop when the sun has a altitude degree lower than 27°.

To do so, we will:

-let the spring go by scooping the jib (to avoid the spring be a stop)

-raise the angle by lowering the fix of the spring drilling the jib

-raise the angle cutting the edges of the jib

See photos:

1/2: observation top/below

3/4: jib disassembly

4/5 : observation dessous, angle max à l'equerre

On arrive ainsi à un angle maximum de quasi 90° et on peut donc suivre le soleil sous tous les angles!

Étape 6 - Tester les commandes du verin et du moteur rotatif

Pour controller le verin, on va utiliser un raspberry pi, l'ordinateur monocarte le plus répandu. Il est doté de d'une série 40 pins, qu'on peut connecter à divers appareils, appelés "controlleur GPIO".

A first reading of a few tutorials and available libraries to use it a some time taken to test wrong hypothesis to install correctly using the good versions leads me to talk a few possible options:

-operating system:

Archives and operating systems versions usefull for retrocompatibility (every reader caring for low tech computer is encouraged to keep local copies of these archives and to share them in torrent!):

NB: ChatGPT gives us the following rapsberry release dates:

  1. Raspberry Pi Model B : 29 february 2012
  2. Raspberry Pi Model A : 4 february 2013
  3. Raspberry Pi Model B+ : 14 july 2014

  13. Raspberry Pi Pico : 21 january 2021
  14. Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W : 28 october 2021

We hope this is true (it comes from chatgpt), but you can verify on what's written on the pcb of your card.

To verify the version of your raspberry under raspberry pi os if you dont know what version it is (see photo):

sudo usermod -a G gpio pi
pinout

Adjust with the operating system that you think is relevant based on your relevancy filters. You have a list of old os versions of dietpi and raspberry pi os in case new versions would now ork anymore (and i repeat: every reader caring of low tech computer is encouraged to download and keep local copies of these archives and share them in torrent!)

To install, as usually, download balenaetcher, flash a usb key with the donwloaded image, boot. The default login/password on dietpi are root/dietpi and for raspberry pi os pi/raspberry (take care to the default qwerty on raspberry pi os at boot). To configure keyboard, locales, timezone and wifi, do:

sudo dietpi-config
under dietpi and
sudo raspi-config
under raspberry pi.

  • RPi.GPIO(dev independant) ou RPi.GPIO2(dev redhat, repo recent)

Essais infructueux avec pip et le depot pypi (erreur de compilations etc.). Installer en passant en root avec la commande

sudo -s 

le plus simple est alors d'installer une version déjà compilée avec apt:

sudo apt install python3-rpi.gpio

faire un test pour voir si ca fonctionne bien (toujours en etant utilisateur root):

python3
import RPi.GPIO

See the sourceforge documentation, more explicit than the pypi one: http://sourceforge.net/p/raspberry-gpio-python/wiki/Home/


  • gpiozero

under dietpi do

sudo apt install python3 python3-venv python3-pip
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install lgpio gpiozero

The first point to understand is the numbering of the pins: The pins have all a number that goes from 1 to 40 following an order from bottom to top and from left to right, and each pin has also a gpiio number which is different from the pin number.

Pour cela on peut chercher les infos sur internet: https://wiki.lowtechlab.org/wiki/Serveur_orangepi-raspberry_nextcloud_en_photovolta%C3%AFque_autonome ou taper les commande suivantes dans raspberry pi os (voir image)

sudo usermod -aG gpio votre_user
pinout

Dans ce tuto, que ce soit avec gpiozero ou RPi.GPIO, on utilisera la numerotation GPIO et pas la numérotation pin

On branche les GPIO 2 et 4 (alim +5V) aux deux fiches +5V du HBrdige On branche les GPIO 6 et 7 (Ground, la terre) aux deux fiches GND du HBrdige On branche les GPIO 23 et 16 à l'interrupteur 3 du HBridge Pour tester le "enable" du HBridge, on branche les GPIO 20 et 21 au ENA du HBridge

On utilise ensuite les scripts suivants :

Update 31.05.24 : vous l'attendiez, voilà l'update du jour avec le hbridge made in europe, ca roule, voir vidéo! :) Update de l'étalonnage rapidement à reception d'un truc pour mesurer les angles un peu pratique.

Remarquez que les fiches 20 et 21 ne sont pas branchées au hbridge. Le "pwm" (pulse width modulation) n'est pas utilisé pour "activer" (enable dans le code) le moteur car des cavaliers placés sur les deux fiches ENA du hbridge suffisent (ici on n'a pas besoin de moduler la vitesse du moteur).


Étape 7 - Verin hydraulique pour la rotation d'axe vertical

Fixer les poulies et la transmission 1:100 pour le moteur rotatif

On commence par récupérer deux pédaliers sur des vélos d'occasion à l'ébarbeuse en prenant soin de garder une tige du cadre.


On va venir y souder les pignons 92T (92 dents).

On soude ensuite les pignons 8T (8 dents) dessus.

On soude un pignon 8T sur un pignon avec une clavette qui s'adapte à l'axe du moteur.

On découpe une tige en fer et on soude un aplat le long de l'axe du lève plaque sur lequel on va venir fixer avec des boulons les tiges découpées dans les cadres de vélo qui prolongent le pédalier ainsi qu'une tige sur laquelle on va fixer le moteur.

On assemble et on boulonne.

Update à réceptiond de la 3eme chaine et en attendant de réfléchir à un moyen de régler les tensions de chaine.


Update du 11.6.24: les contraintes de l'axe du leve plaque font qu'on ne peut y fixer un grand pignon pour bénéficier d'un rapport de réduction favorable sur la derniere chaine de transmission. Malgré les réductions des transmissions des autres poulies, le lève plaque n'est pas entrainé en rotation (voir vidéo).

update du 16.6.24: réception du verin supplémentaire, date livraison estimée : 28 juin-2juillet


On va donc entrainer la rotation avec deux verins. Update à réception des verins fin juin (en stage et non dispo pour update ces prochaines semaines)

La tension de chaine etant mauvaise, on remplace les transmissions par un verrin hydraulique permettant de faire la rotation mais sur un angle réduit (environ 70° faute de verrin telescopique à plusieurs brins)

Étape 8 - Etalonner les moteurs

Le code mis à jour est le suivant: on définit des dictionnaire qui associe chaque angle recherché à un temps d'activation du moteur (à tester à la main et à mesurer)

Étape 10 - Coder le tracking avec une IA

On va maintenant coder une "IA lowtech" pour le côté pédagogique (du ML pour machine learning, comme utilisé massivement depuis une quinzaine d'année dans de nombreux secteurs d'activité, cad pas l'ia au sens chatgptesque du terme en 2024). On pourrait dire que l'ia lowtech est l'ia dont les résultats ne relèvent pas de la pensée magique, dont les data et le code sont open source, non volés, dont les data sont à nous, par nous et pour nous et sur laquelle on a la main (ce dernier point est essentiel mais l'expérience de sortir du rang me pousse au pessimisme à ce sujet car la vérification s'il y a interférence ou pas dans les résultats du machine learning est assez difficile à détecter)

On branche une webcam, on enregistre les images comme données d'entrée, on traite l'image pour en faire un tableaux de chiffres correspondant à des variables avec lesquelles on va chercher à corréler avec un signal positif ou négatif (tourner le moter dans un sens ou moteur à l'arret).

Ici, les données d'entrées sont uniquement les 640*480*3=921600 variables des pixels des images de la vidéo (921600 colonnes/variables par lignes, à partir desquelles on cherche une corrélation avec le signal positif 1 ou 0 de la dernière colonne).

Pour faire fonctionner le tracker, ca ne fonctionnera pas bien, il faudrait faire du "feature engineering" (nom compliqué pour dire rajouter des colones de variables plus proabablement corrélées au signal positif) en rajoutant la luminosité et/ou la date et l'heure, sur des échantillons de vidéos couvrant toutes les saisons sur plusieurs années.

Si vous voulez apprendre les bases sur lesquelles reposent ce code, je recommande le cours "Applied Data Science with Python" de l'université du michigan dans lequelvous apprendrez des bases de python,pandas, et machine learning "no bullshit".

Conclusion: Voilà, maintenant que vous savez coder une IA, vous pouvez la critiquer d'autant mieux,et promouvoir les lowtech en connaissance de cause.

Vous noterez que les algorithmes d'ia sont open sources et assez faciles à utiliser en tant que développeur "simple utilisateur".

Et aussi que sans data, l'ia ne sert absolument à rien.

C'est pour cette raison que les géants de la tech veulent toujours plus de données et emploient des gens dans des conditions proches de l'esclavage dans de nombreux pays pour les traiter avant d'entrainer leurs modèles.

Tout comme pour les "données personnelles", la question clé des ia repose sur les données.

Voir l'excellente conf de benjamin bayart " Géopolitique de la data (Benjamin BAYART) " sur youtube ou en vidéo ici.

Vous pouvez aussi faire un tracker lowtech, mais aussi adapter le code pour créer un véhicule autonome lowtech avec 4 datasets/signaux positifs distincts pour entrainer l'activation de "tourner à gauche","accélérer", "tourner à droite", "freiner". C'est ce qu'a fait George Hotz en proclamant qu'il suffisait d'une trentaine d'heures de vidéos de conduite en enregistrant avec des capteurs pour avoir les signaux positifs correspondant aux images enregistrées pour que le machine learning fonctionne.

Evidemment, on espere qu'il n'y aura pas de hack ou que le système n'a pas de controle commande à distance sur ce type d'algorithme.
