There are two angles to consider: North-South direction and inclination up from horizontal. For best performance, face the solar panel generally south at an inclination of 15 to 30 degrees up from horizontal. This will point the face of the panel nearly directly at the sun. Don't stess over the exact angle, you should be fine as long as its close. Hope this helps... In terms of angle, I have read that you should tilt the panel at an angle equal to your latitude geographically. So, LA is 34 degrees LAT, therefore tilt the panel 34 degress for year round installation. If possible it should be tilted accordingly for seasons. I found a web site with the acronym RSPEC (Reduce Swimming Pool Energy Costs) that suggests the following: The collectors should (ideally) face due south and should be angled based upon your latitude. For heating in the summer months subtract 10-15 degrees from your latitude. For heating in the winter months add 10-15 degrees to your latitude and for year round heating install at your latitude.

What does triangle symbolize?
Upright triangle: spirit, divinity According to ancient beliefs, an upright equilateral triangle, with one point at the top and two at the base, is a male and solar symbol representing spirit, divinity, fire, life, prosperity and harmony. In contrast, the reversed triangle is female and lunar, representing mother earth, water, rain and grace. In Christianity and Judaism, a triangle is often used as a symbol for God and the holy trinity, and in magic it was seen as representing the element fire (with a downward meaning water). When upright and downward triangles are put together, they form the Star of David and symbolize balance and knowledge. Having the symbol in your life can be used to denote a connection with, or interest in, spirit and the spiritual realm. Upside down triangle: The alchemical/magical symbol for water is an inverted triangle, symbolizing downward flow. The downward pointing triangle is an ancient symbol of femininity, being a representation of female genitalia.
What are the contribution of georg von purbach to trigonometry?
He made his observations with very simple instruments, using an ordinary plumb-line to measure the angles of elevation of the stars. He also introduced a mathematical innovation by using Hindu-Arabic numerals in his sine tables, the first transition from the duodecimal to the decimal system.
How does the angle of the solar panel affect how far the solar car goes?
The panel should be at a 90 degree angle to the sun at all times to achieve maximum efficiency.
At what angle and direction should a solar panel face if you live in the Southern hemisphere?
They should face north.
What is the correct angle for installing a solar panel?
60
What angel should solar panels be on?
The angle of the solar panel should be equal to the latitude of the location. So if you live in California at say 40 degrees latitude the panels should be at 40 degrees.
If I am looking to power an AC electric heater with a solar panel solar power being DC how do I determine the size of panel I will need?

Why do you put your solar panel on an angle?
On an angle to what? Presumably you mean the Earth's surface. They should not be at an angle to the Sun (although as the Sun moves during the day you'd need to motorise the solar panel to get it to keep accurately square to the Sun's rays). Anyway, the reason for this to make sure you get as much radiation onto the panel as possible. If you were to tilt the panel so that the rays hit it only obliquely then the heating effect would be reduced.
Can solar energy heat objects?
If you use a solar panel which you would hook up to a heater the answer would be yes
Does the angle of the sun affect how much electricity a solar panel produces?
yes it does
How does power vary on a solar panel at different angles?
The power varies depending on the angle the solar radiation hits the panels. At angles closer to 90 degrees, the solar panel generates the most energy.
Can I connect my Gyeser brand water heater to solar panel and battery?
Yes, if your solar panel and battery system is able to provide the required power that the water heater needs (voltage, current, etc.). If it cannot do that, the water heater won't work. Whether you will also need an inverter between the solar panel and battery system and the water heater is another issue that can only be determined by checking the specification of the water heater (which will be available from any Gyeser Dealer).Note: the name of this company is Gyeser, not Geyser.
If a solar panel cracks does it still work?
If a solar panel cracks it may still work. If solar panels are cracked down the seam they should still work.
