Abstract

Purpose of this study to improve the heliostat sun tracking system behavior by using various control system are used to tune the system. Proportional Integral Derivative controller (PID) and the Fractional order PID (FOPID) controller are used to improve the pervious result, which are get in [1]. Analysis and control system applied are used to provide to check the precision of heliostat tracking system angle by tracing the sun’s rays. The fractional order (FOPID) uses proportional integral derivative controller which are provide more immense merits over the conventional PID controller like straightforward design, improved set point tracking, strong disturbance dismissal, and increased capacity to manage model linear or nonlinear in case real time applications. Mainly heliostat system has vital role in Concentrated solar power (CSP) system, especially when evaluate the efficiency of overall system. CSP technology uses a heliostat system to concentrate the sun's beam energy using mirrors to a solar receiver which are convert it into heat energy, subsequently delivered to a conventional power cycle. High precision solar tracking systems are used to improve the effectiveness of energy conversion, Heliostat accuracy mainly relies on the speed to reach system's acceptance angle with minimum error.
