Calculate the number of modules required in the Photovoltaic array. Photovoltaic system feeds a DC motor to produce 2 HP at the shaft with motor efficiency of 75 %. Solar cells are arranged in 9x4 matrix with 21% cell efficiency and its size is 0.155 x 0.155 m. Assume global radiation incident to the panel as 1kW/square metre.
