Abstract: In order to study the rational value of the wind load type coefficient on solar photovoltaic panels in the existing codes,the wind field of solar photovoltaic panels with the inclination of 39 degrees was numerically analyzed by Computational Fluid Dynamics（CFD）method. Compared with the results of wind tunnel test,the CFD method is proved to be high accuracy and reliability. On this basis,the numerical simulation of wind field at four wind directions from 0° to 180° with interval 45° was carried out. The pressure coefficient of photovoltaic panels,shape coefficient,drag coefficient,lift coefficient and overturning moment coefficient were calculated. A new model of wind pressure distribution was proposed. The results show that the maximum values of wind pressure and lift force were obtained in the wind direction of 180°,and the maximum value of overturning moment was obtained in the wind directions of45° and 135°. The calculation model accounting trapezoidal distribution was reasonable. Finally,the value of wind load shape coefficient was suggested,which can be helpful for wind-resistant design of solar photovoltaic panels.
