[0028] Photovoltaic modules refer to the basic components of photovoltaic power generation systems. Photovoltaic modules include multiple cells (solar cells). These cells are connected together in a specific way and connected to other components through current leads and junction boxes to form independent photovoltaic power generation modules.
[0029] An embodiment of the present application provides a method for inspecting photovoltaic components based on a drone. Figure 1 This is a flow chart of an embodiment of a photovoltaic module fault detection method of the present application. The photovoltaic module fault detection method includes steps S110 to S130.
[0030] In step S110, a first inspection is performed on the photovoltaic components to obtain the first coordinates of the faulty components.
[0031] In some embodiments, a camera assembly carried by a drone is used to perform a first inspection of a photovoltaic assembly to obtain a first image set, wherein the first image set includes a first infrared image and a first visible light image. A fault of the photovoltaic assembly is identified based on the first image set to obtain a faulty assembly and a first coordinate of the faulty assembly.
[0032] The camera assembly is, for example, a pan-tilt camera assembly. The camera assembly may include an infrared image acquisition device and a visible light image acquisition device. The infrared image acquisition device is used to acquire infrared images, and the visible light image acquisition device is used to acquire visible light images.
[0033] In one example, the first inspection is for photovoltaic components of the entire photovoltaic power station. In other optional embodiments, the first inspection may be for photovoltaic components of a target area in the photovoltaic power station.
[0034] In step S120, the first coordinate is used as a first inspection point, and a first inspection path is planned based on the first inspection point; and according to the first inspection path, a drone is used to obtain an electroluminescent image set corresponding to the faulty component.
[0035] In step S130, fault identification is performed based on the electroluminescent image set to obtain a second fault type of the target faulty component, wherein the flight altitude of the drone during the first inspection is greater than the flight altitude of the drone during the first inspection path.
[0036] According to the fault detection method of the photovoltaic component of the embodiment of the present application, the photovoltaic component is successively inspected for the first time and the inspection of the first inspection path is performed. The flying altitude of the drone during the first inspection is greater than the flying altitude of the first inspection path. Therefore, the flying altitude is high when the first inspection is performed, the field of vision is large, and the first coordinates of the faulty component can be efficiently obtained. When flying the first inspection path, the flying altitude is low, and the electroluminescent image set corresponding to the faulty component can be obtained at this time. The fault identification based on the electroluminescent image set has a high recognition accuracy, and the fault type and cause can be identified. When planning the first inspection path, the first coordinate is used as the first inspection point, and the first inspection path is planned based on the first inspection point. Therefore, when performing fault identification based on the electroluminescent image set, the blindness of the inspection can be reduced, and the fault type and cause of the fault can be obtained in a targeted manner for the faulty component, thereby ensuring the accuracy of fault identification while ensuring high-efficiency inspection, efficiently and accurately discovering the cause of the faulty component, improving the efficiency of photovoltaic component operation and maintenance, and facilitating the improvement of the power generation of photovoltaic components.
[0037] In some embodiments, according to the first inspection path, the drone is directly used to obtain the electroluminescent image set corresponding to the faulty component. In some other embodiments, according to the first inspection path, the drone can be further used to obtain the electroluminescent image set corresponding to the faulty component after at least one inspection.
[0038] Figure 2A flowchart of using a drone to obtain an electroluminescent image set corresponding to a faulty component according to a first inspection path in an alternative embodiment of a fault detection method for a photovoltaic component of the present application. In some embodiments, the step of using a drone to obtain an electroluminescent image set corresponding to a faulty component according to the first inspection path further includes steps S121 to S125.
[0039] In step S121, a second inspection is performed on the faulty component according to the first inspection path by using the camera component carried by the drone to obtain a second image set, wherein the second image set includes a second infrared image and a second visible light image.
[0040] In step S122, fault identification is performed on the faulty component based on the second image set to obtain second coordinates and the first fault type.
[0041] In step S123, the target fault point is screened out from the second coordinates according to the matching degree between the second coordinates and the first coordinates.
[0042] In step S124, the third coordinates corresponding to the target fault point are obtained, and a second inspection path is planned based on the third coordinates.
[0043] In step S125, according to the second inspection path, the UAV is used to obtain the electroluminescent image set corresponding to the faulty component, wherein the flight altitude during the execution of the second inspection path is lower than the flight altitude during the second inspection.
[0044] In some embodiments, the flight height during the second inspection is less than or equal to the flight height during the first inspection.
[0045] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned step S123 of screening out the target fault point from the second coordinate according to the matching degree between the second coordinate and the first coordinate includes: taking the second coordinate identical to the first coordinate as the target fault point. At this time, the faulty components having the same coordinates as the first inspection and the second inspection are screened out as the target fault point, and then after fault identification is performed according to the electroluminescent image set, multiple fault types of the target fault point can be identified, such as hot spots, hidden cracks, broken pieces, broken grids and other faults. That is, at this time, the step S130 of performing fault identification according to the electroluminescent image set to obtain the second fault type of the target faulty component may include: performing faulty component identification according to the electroluminescent image set to obtain the third coordinates and the second fault type of the faulty component, wherein the second fault type includes: hot spots, hidden cracks, broken pieces, broken grids.
[0046] In some other embodiments, the step S123 of selecting the target fault point from the second coordinate according to the matching degree between the second coordinate and the first coordinate includes: taking the second coordinate that is the same as the first coordinate and the first fault type is a hot spot or a fragmentation as the target fault point. That is, at this time, the specific hot spot and fragmentation target fault points are selected as the fault points that need to be further detected. At this time, the step S130 of performing fault identification according to the electroluminescent image set to obtain the second fault type of the target fault component may include: performing fault component identification according to the electroluminescent image set to obtain the third coordinate and the second fault type of the fault component, wherein the second fault type includes: hot spot and hidden crack.
[0047] In some embodiments, the inspection method of photovoltaic components based on a drone further includes: obtaining a corresponding fault cause according to a corresponding relationship between the second fault type and the first fault type.
[0048] When the first fault type obtained in the second inspection is a hot spot, the cause of the fault can be further known based on the correspondence between the second fault type and the first fault type obtained later.
[0049] In one example, the step of obtaining the corresponding fault cause according to the corresponding relationship between the second fault type and the first fault type includes: for the target fault component, when the first fault type is a hot spot and the second fault type is a hidden crack, the photovoltaic component corresponding to the third coordinate is used as the target fault component, and the corresponding fault type is hidden crack; when the first fault type is a hot spot and the second fault type is no fault, the photovoltaic component corresponding to the third coordinate is used as the target fault component, and the corresponding fault type is an external cause. The external cause is, for example, obstruction caused by external causes such as dust accumulation and bird droppings.
[0050] When the first fault type obtained in the second inspection is fragmentation, the cause of the fault can be further known according to the correspondence between the second fault type and the first fault type obtained later. In this embodiment, the fragmentation fault is the fragmentation of the battery cell.
[0051] In one example, the step of obtaining the corresponding fault cause based on the correspondence between the second fault type and the first fault type includes: for the target faulty component, when the first fault type is fragmentation and the second fault type is hot spot, determining that the target faulty component is slightly fragmented; when the first fault type is fragmentation and the second fault type is fragmentation, determining that the target faulty component is severely fragmented.
[0052] According to the fault detection method of the photovoltaic module in the above embodiment, the corresponding fault cause is obtained according to the corresponding relationship between the second fault type and the first fault type, so that when the photovoltaic module is found to have hot spots, fragmentation and other faults, the specific fault cause can be further known, so that the operation and maintenance personnel can eliminate the fault according to the specific fault cause, thereby further improving the efficiency of the operation and maintenance of the photovoltaic module and facilitating the improvement of the power generation of the photovoltaic module.
[0053] The present application also provides a photovoltaic module inspection system. Figure 3 1 is a schematic diagram of a photovoltaic module inspection system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The photovoltaic module inspection system includes a drone 110 and an image processing device 120. The image processing device 120 is in communication connection with the drone 110.
[0054] The drone 110 is used to perform a first inspection on the photovoltaic components, obtain the first coordinates of the faulty components, and acquire a set of electroluminescent images corresponding to the faulty components according to a first inspection path, wherein the flight altitude of the drone during the first inspection is greater than the flight altitude of the first inspection path.
[0055] The image processing device 120 is configured to use the first coordinate as a first inspection point, plan a first inspection path based on the first inspection point, perform fault identification according to the electroluminescent image set, and obtain a second fault type of the target faulty component.
[0056] The inspection system of photovoltaic components according to the embodiment of the present application includes a communication-connected drone 110 and an image processing device 120. The drone 110 performs a first inspection on the photovoltaic components and an inspection along the first inspection path. The flight altitude of the drone 110 during the first inspection is greater than the flight altitude of the first inspection path. Therefore, the flight altitude is high when performing the first inspection, and the field of view is large, so the first coordinates of the faulty component can be efficiently acquired. When flying the first inspection path, the flight altitude is low, and the electroluminescent image set corresponding to the faulty component can be acquired at this time. The fault identification based on the electroluminescent image set has a high recognition accuracy, and the fault type and cause can be identified. When planning the first inspection path, the image processing device 120 uses the first coordinate as the first inspection point, and plans the first inspection path based on the first inspection point. Therefore, when performing fault identification based on electroluminescent image sets, the blindness of the inspection can be reduced, and the fault type and cause of the faulty component can be obtained in a targeted manner, thereby ensuring the accuracy of fault identification while ensuring high-efficiency inspections, efficiently and accurately discovering the causes of faulty components, improving the efficiency of photovoltaic component operation and maintenance, and facilitating the improvement of photovoltaic component power generation.
