The paper presents comparative experimental research of the aerodynamic processes and forces occurring due to airflow moving past by concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) modules assembled on a flat and a stair-step frame. The subsequent analysis of the aerodynamic properties of these design schemes has revealed the significant advantages of stair-step arrangement of CPV modules over the flat ones concerning smaller wind loads affecting the platform. In order to calculate the value of the forces operating on full-size solar installations, values for aerodynamic resistance for different schemes of module arrangement have been obtained. Detailed research of various solar installation models utilizing a wind tunnel and aerodynamic scales is carried out for the first time.
