Abstract

The invention discloses a sunlight tracking sensor, which comprises a tubular housing, the tubular housing is elongated, the top of the tubular housing is provided with a light-transmitting panel 2, and the center of the light-transmitting panel 2 is arranged There is a square light-shielding film, and the light-shielding film is projected on the square shadow area in the center of the circuit board at the bottom of the tubular housing, and the midpoints of the four sides of the square shadow area are each mounted with a photosensitive tube that coincides with the four sides. The photosensitive tube and four voltage comparators form a working circuit. The invention has the advantages of simple structure, low cost, less than ±0.05 degree of tracking accuracy, small cross-section, and less shading of three points and one line with the reflector heat collector, and is especially suitable for sunlight tracking of heliostats.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to precision sunlight tracking sensor technology and belongs to the technical field of new energy applications. Background technique [0002] Because the earth can use less and less energy, and solar energy is an inexhaustible energy. As a clean and pollution-free new energy source, solar energy has been widely concerned and used in recent years. Sun tracking can increase the utilization rate of solar energy by 40%. In order to further improve the utilization rate of solar energy, the third generation of concentrated photovoltaic cells has come out. For applications, the tracking accuracy of sunlight is required to reach ±0.1°, while the heliostat for solar thermal power generation requires higher tracking accuracy for the reflected light of the sun. At present, the existing technical solutions include "GPS positioning" and the general "four-quadrant photoelectric type". It is also impossible to meet this requirement. Contents...
