Its installation layout directly affects the power generation efficiency and economy of the system, among which the installation spacing is the key parameter of photovoltaic array layout. Reasonable installation spacing can not only ensure that photovoltaic modules receive sufficient solar radiation, but also improve land utilization, which has an important impact on the overall benefits of photovoltaic power stations.
[0003] In the prior art, the methods for determining the installation spacing of photovoltaic arrays mainly include: empirical formula method, minimum shadow shielding method and power generation optimization method. Among them, the empirical formula method mainly calculates the installation spacing based on latitude and component size; the minimum shadow shielding method determines the installation spacing by calculating the minimum solar altitude angle on the winter solstice; the power generation optimization method optimizes the calculation based on the consideration of shadow shielding, combined with power generation and economy. These methods have been applied to a certain extent in actual engineering.

[0072] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S2 includes:
[0073] The latitude is divided into three regions according to the range, namely low-latitude region, mid-latitude region and high-latitude region;
[0074] According to the latitude of the installation location Determine the region to which it belongs and its characteristic parameters a i and b i , i = 1, 2, 3, where i = 1 represents the low-latitude region, i = 2 represents the mid-latitude region, and i = 3 represents the high-latitude region;

[0078] Among them, the value range of the geographical spacing coefficient K1 is 1.0-2.0. If the calculated K1<1.0, K1=1.0 is taken; if the calculated K1>2.0, K1=2.0 is taken.
[0079] In this embodiment, the characteristic parameter a i and b iThe specific value of needs to take into account local lighting conditions and climate characteristics, and can be fine-tuned and optimized through field test data.
[0080] Specifically, this embodiment provides a value reference, as shown in Table 1.
[0081] Table 1 Latitude region division and corresponding characteristic parameter values
[0082]
[0083] In this embodiment, the characteristic parameter a is introduced i and b i , a quantitative relationship between latitude value and spacing coefficient is established, so that the calculation results can accurately reflect the impact of different latitudes on the installation spacing of photovoltaic arrays. At the same time, by setting the value range of the coefficient, the rationality and practicality of the calculation results are ensured.
[0084] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S3 includes:
[0085] First, define the sun position parameters: solar altitude angle α: the angle between the sun's rays and the horizontal plane; solar azimuth angle γ: the angle between the projection of the sun's rays on the horizontal plane and the south direction, which is negative in the east and positive in the west.
[0086] Calculate the solar declination:
[0087]
[0088] Where n is the nth day of the year (January 1 is the 1st day); 23.45° is the inclination of the Earth.
[0089] Calculate the local hour angle:
[0090] ω=15°×(t-12)
[0091] Where t is solar time (hours).
[0092] Calculate the sun's altitude angle:
[0093]
[0094] in, is the latitude of the installation location, δ is the solar declination angle, and ω is the local hour angle.
[0095] During the period from 8:00 to 16:00 on the winter solstice (n=355), the solar altitude angle is calculated every 30 minutes, and the minimum value is taken as α min . Usually, to ensure the calculation accuracy, α min Should not be less than 10°.
[0096] The calculation formula for the solar azimuth is:
[0097]
[0098] When the sun is in the Eastern Hemisphere, γ is negative; when it is in the Western Hemisphere, γ is positive.
[0099] The actual solar altitude angle needs to take into account the influence of atmospheric refraction, and the correction formula is:
[0100]
[0101] Corrected solar altitude angle: α′=α+Δα.
[0102] When the installation site is located in a mountainous area or has obstructions, it is necessary to consider the impact of terrain obstruction on the sun's position parameters: use a digital terrain model (DTM) to analyze the obstruction angle; calculate the effective sunshine time; and correct the minimum sun altitude angle.
[0103] Verify the accuracy of the calculation results through solar position calculation software, such as SPA, and compare the calculation results with the measured data to ensure that the error is within the allowable range: the solar altitude angle error should be less than 0.5°; the solar azimuth angle error should be less than 1.0°.
[0104] The calculated minimum solar altitude angle α min The solar azimuth angle γ is stored in the system database as an important parameter for the subsequent calculation of the basic installation spacing. At the same time, a solar trajectory diagram is generated to intuitively display the changes in the sun's position throughout the year, providing a reference for the layout of the photovoltaic array.
[0105] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S4 includes:

[0112] Among them, G is the annual total light intensity, l i is the solar radiation intensity at the i-th moment, α i is the solar altitude angle at the i-th moment, and Δt is the time interval.
[0113] When there is a terrain slope β at the installation site, the actual inclination angle θ r calculate:
[0114] θ r =θ t ±β
[0115] Among them, when the slope direction is consistent with the optimal direction, a minus sign is taken; when the slope direction is opposite to the optimal direction, a plus sign is taken.
[0116] According to the terrain orientation γ t The deviation from the ideal orientation γ0 introduces the orientation correction factor K γ :
[0117] K γ = cos(γ t -γ0)
[0118] Corrected inclination:
[0119] θ m =θ r ×K γ
[0120] This embodiment can also optimize the inclination angle, and the process is as follows:
[0121] Establish the optimization objective function: F(θ) = G(θ) × η(θ); where: G(θ) is the annual average total light intensity; η(θ) is the photoelectric conversion efficiency function. Constraints: 15°≤θ≤45°; |θ-θ m |≤10°.
[0122] Use the golden section method to search for the optimal solution within the constraints: a. Initial search interval [θ min ,θ max ]; b. Calculate the golden section points θ1, θ2; c. Compare the values of F(θ1) and F(θ2); d. Narrow the search interval; e. Repeat steps bd until convergence.
[0123] Verify the calculation results through PVsyst; compare and analyze with empirical values; consider the actual engineering construction requirements and round off the calculation results to integer values.
[0124] The calculated optimal inclination angle θ is stored in the system database as an input parameter for the subsequent calculation of the foundation installation spacing. At the same time, an inclination optimization report is generated, including: theoretical calculation value; correction process; final determination value; expected power generation gain.
[0125] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S5 includes:
[0126] Calculate the foundation installation spacing based on the optimal inclination angle, minimum sun altitude angle and geographic spacing factor:

[0134] In the comprehensive correction coefficient, the calculation formula of each coefficient is as follows:
[0135] K GSI =w1×S+w2×R+w3×E
[0136] K MCI =T×w T +H×w H +V×w V
[0137]
[0138] Where S is the geological stability factor; R is the soil type factor; E is the groundwater level factor; w1, w2, w3 are the corresponding weight coefficients, and w1+w2+w3=1; T is the temperature factor, T=(T max-T min ) / T0,T max , T min is the annual maximum temperature and annual minimum temperature, T0 is the reference temperature difference; H is the humidity influence factor, H = RH / RH0, RH is the annual average relative humidity, RH0 is the reference relative humidity; V is the wind speed influence factor, V = (v / v0) 2 , v is the maximum wind speed at the installation site, v0 is the reference wind speed; w T 、w H 、w V is the corresponding weight coefficient, and w T +w H +w V =1; h is the installation site altitude; h0 is the reference altitude; ρ is the ground reflectivity; ρ0 is the reference reflectivity; μ1 and μ2 are adaptive coefficients.
[0139] In this embodiment, the quantitative standard of the geological stability factor S is: S = 1.0: excellent geological stability; S = 0.9: good geological stability; S = 0.8: average geological stability; S = 0.7: poor geological stability; S < 0.7: not recommended for installation. Its value is based on the comprehensive evaluation of the following indicators:
[0140] Evaluation Project Weight Scoring criteria (0-1 points) Foundation bearing capacity 0.3 <200kPa:0.3;200-300kPa:0.6;>300kPa:1.0 earthquake intensity 0.3 >7 degrees: 0.3; 6-7 degrees: 0.7; <6 degrees: 1.0 Surface stability 0.4 Soft soil / liquefaction: 0.2; General soil: 0.6; Rock: 1.0

[0144] The quantification process of the groundwater level influencing factor E is: E = 1-0.1×e (-d / 2) ; where d is the depth of groundwater level (m).
[0145] In this embodiment, the reference temperature difference T0 is set to 40°C, the annual temperature difference reference value is 25°C-35°C, the reference relative humidity RH0 is set to 65%, the suitable relative humidity range is set to 45%-75%, the reference wind speed v0 is set to 25m / s, the safe wind speed threshold is set to 30m / s, the reference altitude h0 is set to 500m, the high altitude correction starting point is 1000m, the reference reflectivity ρ0 is set to 0.2, the typical ground reflectivity range is 0.1-0.3, the altitude adaptation coefficient μ1=0.05×(1+h / 1000), where h is the altitude of the installation site (m); the reflectivity adaptation coefficient μ2=0.1×(1+ρ / 0.2), where ρ is the ground reflectivity.
[0146] In this embodiment, w1, w2, and w3 are determined as w1=0.5, w2=0.3, and w3=0.2. T 、w H 、w V Set to w T =0.4, w H =0.3, w V =0.3.
[0147] In step S5, the calculation formula for optimizing the installation spacing is as follows:

[0153] Specifically, this embodiment introduces a coupling function f(K GSI ,K MCI ) is used to deal with the interaction between geological conditions and microclimate, and its value range is limited to between 0.9 and 1.1, indicating that this is a fine-tuning factor. The purpose of this coupling function is to supplement the calculation of the mutual influence between the two factors.
[0154] In the formula for optimizing installation spacing, D base is the basic calculation value, K represents the comprehensive linear influence, f(K GSI ,K MCI ) represents the nonlinear interaction effect, What is considered is the influence of wind speed and snow accumulation, because wind load and snow accumulation are additional stresses on the structure, these stresses will have an exponential impact. If the installation site is in an area where it does not snow, the value of s is 0, and only the influence of wind speed is considered.
[0155] The environmental impact index k adopts a dynamic weight calculation method:
[0156]
[0157] Where k0 is the basic environmental index, T max , T min are the annual maximum temperature and the annual minimum temperature, RH is the annual average relative humidity, RH0 is the benchmark relative humidity, UV is the annual average ultraviolet intensity, UV0 is the benchmark ultraviolet intensity, ω1, ω2, ω3 are dynamic weight coefficients, and ω1+ω2+ω3=1, where the dynamic weight coefficient is adjusted dynamically according to the season.
[0158] In this embodiment, k0 takes a value of 0.001 and UV0 takes a value of 2000 W / m 2 .
[0159] The rules for dynamically adjusting the dynamic weight coefficient according to the season provided in this embodiment are as follows:
[0160] Seasonal adjustment of temperature weight (ω1), humidity weight (ω2), and ultraviolet weight (ω3):
[0161] season <![CDATA[ω1]]> <![CDATA[ω2]]> <![CDATA[ω3]]> spring 0.3 0.4 0.3 summer 0.4 0.3 0.3 autumn 0.3 0.4 0.3 winter 0.4 0.4 0.2
[0162] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, step S6 includes:
[0163] S61, establish a three-dimensional model of the photovoltaic array, import the geographical location, meteorological data, component parameters and photovoltaic array layout plan;
[0164] S62. Perform hourly shadow distribution simulation throughout the year in the simulation software, including calculating static shadow coverage area and occlusion rate, simulating dynamic shadow change trajectory throughout the year, and analyzing shadow maps during key periods;
[0165] S63, performing system power generation analysis, including calculating theoretical power generation based on irradiance data, predicting actual power generation considering system loss factors, and calculating system performance ratio PR value;
[0166] S64, set optimization target indicators: shadow loss rate is not greater than τ1; area utilization is not less than τ2; performance ratio PR value is not less than τ3;
[0167] S65. Optimize the spacing based on the simulation results: when the shadow loss rate exceeds the standard, gradually increase the row spacing and record the data; when the area utilization is insufficient, reduce the row spacing while meeting the shadow loss rate; when the performance ratio PR value does not meet the standard, analyze the various losses and adjust the layout parameters accordingly.
[0168] In a specific example, PVsyst is selected as the main photovoltaic simulation software, and the geographical location data are prepared: longitude, latitude (accurate to 4 decimal places), altitude (meters), terrain slope (degrees), site topographic map (CAD format); meteorological data: Meteonorm meteorological database, NASASE data; measured data of the nearest meteorological station (≥3 years), including: hourly irradiance data, ambient temperature, wind speed data, snowfall data; component parameters: component specification, component size, temperature coefficient, power attenuation coefficient, IV characteristic curve; system layout plan: preliminary spacing calculation results, component arrangement method, bracket design parameters.
[0169] Modeling is performed in a three-dimensional environment, including terrain modeling and array modeling. Terrain modeling includes: importing terrain data: importing CAD terrain maps, setting the site coordinate system, and establishing terrain surfaces; setting surface parameters: surface reflectivity, surface roughness, and obstacle information. Array modeling includes: component layout: setting component type, defining installation inclination, setting azimuth, and inputting calculated spacing; bracket modeling: defining bracket type, setting installation height, and establishing bracket structure.
[0170] The shadow distribution simulation is carried out hourly throughout the year in the simulation software. The process is as follows:
[0171] 1. Static shadow calculation: Shadow coverage = shadow area / total component area × 100%; occlusion rate = number of occluded components / total number of components × 100%.
[0172] 2. Select key time periods, such as the winter solstice, summer solstice, and spring and autumnal equinoxes, and select the time from 8:00 to 16:00 for hourly analysis to simulate shadow trajectories: generate a shadow dynamic change map, record the shadow position at key moments, and count the occlusion duration throughout the day.
[0173] 3. Generate shadow map.
[0174] Annual shadow distribution map: horizontal shadow distribution, inclined shadow distribution, and shadow overlapping area identification.
[0175] Shadow map during critical periods: generate iso-illuminance lines, mark shadow boundaries, and calculate effective area.
[0176] To perform system power generation analysis, the process is as follows:
[0177] Irradiance calculation:
[0178] B total =B direct +B diffuse +B reflected ; Among them: B total is the total radiation exposure; B direct is the direct radiation; B diffuse is the scattered radiation; B reflected is the reflected irradiance.
[0179] Theoretical power generation:
[0180] P theory =η×Area×B total ×(1-λ temp );where: η is the module efficiency; Area is the total area; λ temp is the temperature loss coefficient.
[0181] Analyze the system losses, including optical losses, component losses, and environmental losses, and adjust the system losses to obtain the actual power generation.
[0182] Calculate the performance ratio PR value:
[0183] PR=P actual / (P theory ×η STC );where: P actual is the actual power generation, η STC Efficiency under standard test conditions.
[0184] Set the optimization target indicators: the shadow loss rate is not greater than τ1; the area utilization rate is not less than τ2; the performance ratio PR value is not less than τ3; specifically, τ1 is 3%, τ2 is 85%, and τ3 is 80%.
[0185] Optimize the spacing based on the simulation results: when the shadow loss rate exceeds the standard, gradually increase the row spacing and record the data; when the area utilization is insufficient, reduce the row spacing while meeting the shadow loss rate; when the performance ratio PR value does not meet the standard, analyze the various losses and adjust the layout parameters accordingly. The specific process is as follows:
[0186] When the shadow loss rate exceeds the standard, the initial spacing is increased by 0.1m, and then the shadow loss is recalculated. The optimization formula is: Dnew=Dold+ΔD; ΔD=0.1×(actual shadow loss rate / target shadow loss rate).
[0187] When the area utilization is insufficient, the initial spacing is reduced to 0.05m, the shadow loss rate is verified, and the new area utilization is recalculated. The optimization conditions are: IF (shadow loss rate ≤ τ1) AND (area utilization < τ2) THEN execute spacing reduction ENDIF.
[0188] When the performance ratio PR value does not meet the standard, analyze the factors affecting PR: check temperature loss, estimate shadow loss, analyze system loss, and take corresponding optimization measures: adjust the bracket height, optimize the string mode, and improve ventilation conditions.
[0189] In this embodiment, the optimization process of the overall spacing is: record the initial parameters, perform simulation analysis, evaluate the optimization index, adjust the optimization parameters, repeat the simulation verification, and record the optimization results. The optimization is terminated when all the following conditions are met: shadow loss rate ≤ τ1, area utilization ≥ τ2, PR value ≥ τ3, and the change between two optimization results ≤ 0.1%. The optimal spacing value is output.
