Thank you for your advise and I know that these will I face but want to know that if anyone have tried it with their mining rigs or not. I first want to know from the experience of other that how is it running in the time when it is sunlight and the solar panels are working. I want to know that how much is it possible.

Actually, he already answers what you need if you talking about how long the miner will run with solar panels it depends on your solar panel how much can produced and battery if how much can store.

If you want a diagram and how to calculate a mining setup with solar I suggest you check this PDF file below

Take note this is an off-grid setup

Also check this thread to get some idea for on-grid setup https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5337081.0

The laid-out study is really nice and in detail. However, felt bad after realizing that they are still asking everyone to check their own results in the conclusion. They still think there might more factors that can affect the way solar-based mining can work. Though the study is carried out on E9 antminer and probably geolocation is the major factor in everything, OP shall also take note of where they live. The amount of sunlight they receive, the night cycles and everything must be precise to have a stable mining protocol.

There are no guarantees with regard to the financial analysis set out in this paper. Prima facie,
for the case study performed for setups in New Zealand, the Antiminer E9 setup appears to be
the most attractive in terms of its payback period, which is a good measure of its relative
profitability and its exposure to the risk from volatility. However, there are several factors that
we believe aspiring solar miners should consider before embarking on a solar mining venture
in New Zealand

The rest of the analysis is just based on how reactive the market is and earnings can change as the volatility changes, price dips or ups, etc. The usual factors. This is worth reading research for a person like OP who is going to get into it. However, the odds of success are really less when it comes to solar energy mining.
