The wind tunnel test examines the wind force using gable roof house models with Japanese roof tiles, which is not included in JIS C8955 as the design standard for photovoltaic panels. The test results show the maximum peak wind force for the panels on Japanese roof tiles in all wind directions is within that for the panels on flat surface roof in JIS C8955. On the other hand, the peak wind force on a panel on Japanese roof tiles is greater than that on the panel on flat surface roof in specific wind directions.
