Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaic panels, and in particular to an online monitoring method and system based on the health of solar photovoltaic panels. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic panels, also known as solar PV panels, are devices that convert sunlight directly into electrical energy. Photovoltaic panels consist of multiple photovoltaic cells, which are usually made of silicon. When sunlight shines on a photovoltaic cell, the energy of the photons excites electrons, which generates an electric current. This process of converting light energy into electrical energy is called the photovoltaic effect. Photovoltaic panel health monitoring refers to the real-time monitoring of the performance, status, and working environment of photovoltaic panels to ensure their normal operation and efficient power generation.

[0003] In the current traditional photovoltaic panel health monitoring system, the single variable evaluation method often leads to misjudgments and missed judgments, especially in extreme weather conditions, when the performance of photovoltaic panels may change significantly. Due to the lack of comprehensive consideration of environmental factors such as temperature, the existing system may issue false alarms when the photovoltaic panels are actually operating well, or fail to detect potential problems in the photovoltaic panels in a timely manner. These misjudgments and missed judgments will lead to increased maintenance costs and even affect the overall efficiency and stability of the photovoltaic power generation system.

Finally, the multivariate health index calculation module further comprehensively considers the temperature influencing factor Tf to conduct an in-depth assessment of the multi-dimensional health of the photovoltaic panel. By comparing with the historical health threshold L, the system can more comprehensively analyze the health status of photovoltaic panels under different environmental conditions and provide more operational maintenance suggestions and strategies for operation and maintenance personnel. This comprehensive evaluation not only improves monitoring accuracy and fault diagnosis capabilities, but also significantly improves the operating efficiency and long-term stability of the photovoltaic system, bringing users more reliable and efficient energy supply services.

The integration of these modules enables the photovoltaic panel operation health monitoring system to achieve intelligent management of the entire process from real-time data acquisition to refined feature extraction. Compared with traditional periodic inspection methods, this system significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of fault detection, reduces maintenance costs and risks, and improves the stability and long-term reliability of photovoltaic systems, bringing users a more reliable and efficient energy production and utilization experience.

[0075] Example 3

[0076] This embodiment is explained in Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 ,Specifically: the health status index calculation module includes a photovoltaic instantaneous efficiency calculation unit, an ,electrical performance calculation unit and a comprehensive calculation unit;

[0077] The instantaneous efficiency calculation unit is used to calculate and obtain the instantaneous efficiency S(t) of photovoltaics based on the extracted operating feature set, and to analyze the energy conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic panel at the current working point;

[0078] The instantaneous efficiency S(t) is obtained by the following algorithm formula;

[0079]

[0080] Where A represents the area of ​​the photovoltaic panel.

[0081] The electrical performance calculation unit is used to calculate and analyze the electrical performance of the photovoltaic panel by analyzing the voltage V of the photovoltaic panel when it is open circuit and the current I when it is short circuit, and obtain the fill factor FF;

[0086] Example 4

[0087] This embodiment is explained in Example 3, please refer to Figure 1 Specifically: the comprehensive calculation unit is used to perform dimensionless processing on the instantaneous efficiency S(t) and the fill factor FF, and then calculate and obtain the health index HI to comprehensively analyze the health status of the photovoltaic panel;

[0088] The health index HI is obtained through the following algorithm formula;

The specific assessment scheme is as follows;

[0092] When the health index HI> the first health threshold J, it means that the current photovoltaic panel is healthy;

[0093] When the health index HI ≤ the first health threshold J, it indicates that the current health status of the photovoltaic panel is abnormal, and further detailed evaluation is performed.

[0094] In this embodiment, the system obtains the health index HI by comprehensive calculation through the comprehensive calculation unit after dimensionless processing of the instantaneous efficiency S(t) and the filling factor FF.

By constructing a temperature impact algorithm formula and combining it with the temperature parameter T detected in real time by the temperature sensor deployed on the photovoltaic panel, a correlation calculation is performed to obtain the temperature impact factor Tf;

[0099] The temperature influence factor Tf is obtained by the following algorithm formula;

[0100]

[0101] In the formula, T(t) represents the temperature parameter T detected by the sensor at time t, α represents the temperature coefficient, which reflects the influence of temperature on efficiency, and Topt represents the optimal operating temperature;

[0102] The multivariable calculation unit is used to perform correlation calculation based on the obtained health index HI and the temperature influence factor Tf analyzed during the operation of the photovoltaic panel to obtain the multivariable health index HI2;

The specific evaluation scheme is as follows;

[0107] When the multivariate health index HI2> the historical health threshold L, it means that the photovoltaic panel is in a healthy state. At this time, the first warning information is generated to prompt the relevant staff to perform regular maintenance on the current photovoltaic panel;

[0108] When the multivariate health index HI2 ≤ the historical health threshold L, it indicates that the photovoltaic panel is in an unhealthy operating state. At this time, a second warning message is generated to prompt relevant staff to repair the current photovoltaic panel immediately.

[0109] In this embodiment, the system effectively enhances the in-depth analysis capability of the health status of the photovoltaic panel through the collaboration of the temperature variable calculation unit and the multivariable calculation unit through the multivariable health calculation unit. When the health index HI evaluates an abnormality, the temperature variable calculation unit uses the temperature parameter T detected in real time to calculate the temperature influence factor Tf through the temperature influence algorithm. This factor reflects the actual impact of temperature changes on the performance of the photovoltaic panel, enabling the system to more accurately evaluate the health status of the photovoltaic panel under different working environments. Secondly, the multivariable calculation unit combines the health index HI and the temperature influence factor Tf to calculate the multivariable health index HI2. The multivariable health index HI2 comprehensively considers the comprehensive influence of multiple variable factors such as the instantaneous efficiency S(t) and fill factor FF of the photovoltaic panel and the temperature influence, providing more comprehensive and accurate health assessment data for operation and maintenance personnel. This comprehensive assessment not only helps to identify potential problems in a timely manner, but also guides the formulation of system optimization and maintenance strategies, thereby minimizing the risk of failure and maintenance costs. The comprehensive assessment unit further uses the mean of the historical health data of the photovoltaic panel to construct the historical health threshold L. Through a secondary comparative evaluation with the multivariable health index HI2, the system generates a corresponding early warning strategy. When the multivariable health index HI2 exceeds the historical health threshold L, the system issues a first warning message to prompt the operation and maintenance personnel to perform regular maintenance; and when the multivariable health index HI2 is lower than the historical health threshold L, the system issues a second warning message to require immediate repair. This warning mechanism based on multivariable results effectively improves the accuracy and response speed of system fault prediction, helping to ensure the long-term stable operation and performance optimization of photovoltaic panels.
