These days many solar ship projects exist such as TURANOR PlanetSolar, Solar Voyager, Solaris, SoelCat 12 and the Helios yacht [1-4], which use solar energy obtained from solar panels mounted on their deck or from solar sails. For this reason, each of these solar ships needs a good quality battery to power its engine and accessories when sunlight is not available. This article compares the stability of usable solar heat flux incident on horizontally and vertically mounted solar panels surface based on the season and latitude at which they are supposed to be used. This article also compares two different ways to charge the ships’ batteries throughout the day, which are maximizing the power gathered from sun regardless the power peaks at specific times of the day and optimizing the power output of the panels to be as smooth as possible throughout the day. All simulations were calculated using the ANSYS simulation software.
