[0002] In the context of global response to climate change and energy transformation, the use of renewable energy has received widespread attention. As a clean and renewable energy source, solar energy has developed rapidly in photovoltaic power generation technology. Photovoltaic air conditioners have emerged as the times require. They combine solar photovoltaic power generation with air conditioning systems, convert solar energy into electrical energy through photovoltaic panels, and provide power for the operation of air conditioners, thereby reducing dependence on traditional power grid electricity and reducing carbon emissions. Photovoltaic substrates are the core components of photovoltaic systems in photovoltaic air conditioners, and their performance directly affects the power generation efficiency. However, photovoltaic substrates face challenges from a variety of environmental factors during actual use; in addition, photovoltaic substrates also face the risk of mechanical damage. During installation and use, they may be impacted by natural disasters such as hail and sandstorms, as well as the risk of mechanical damage. In summary, in order to improve the performance and service life of photovoltaic substrates in photovoltaic air conditioners and ensure the stable operation of photovoltaic air conditioners, it is very necessary to develop a photovoltaic air conditioner with a perfect substrate protection function. This protection function should not only be able to cope with the influence of various environmental factors, but also have an intelligent monitoring and protection mechanism, so as to give full play to the advantages of photovoltaic air conditioners and promote the effective application of renewable energy in the field of air conditioning.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN103486682B discloses a photovoltaic air conditioning system, including a photovoltaic cell array, an air conditioning unit, a converter unit, and a DC bus. A converter unit is provided between the public power grid and the inverter unit.

The air conditioning unit is provided with an inverter unit as a standard component of the unit. The DC power emitted by the photovoltaic cell array and the DC power emitted after rectification by the converter unit are supplied to the inverter unit to power the unit. It can be seen that the photovoltaic air conditioning system has the problem of inaccurate monitoring of the influence of the ambient temperature or the heat dissipation temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit on the operation of the photovoltaic air conditioner and the interference of the heat dissipation water droplets discharged from the air conditioner of other users above the air conditioner on the heat dissipation of the air conditioner downstairs, which leads to the problem of reduced operation stability of the photovoltaic air conditioner. Summary of the invention

[0063] The photovoltaic substrate support 5 is connected to the photovoltaic substrate 7 and is used to fix the position of the photovoltaic substrate 7 .

[0064] In practice, the photovoltaic air conditioner of the present invention converts the direct current generated by the photovoltaic substrate 7 into alternating current by setting up a photovoltaic power generation unit, thereby overcoming the problem that the electric energy generated by the photovoltaic substrate 7 cannot be adapted to electrical equipment or cannot interact with the power grid, thereby improving the versatility of the power generated by the photovoltaic air conditioner.

[0066] A lithium battery pack (not shown), which is connected to the photovoltaic substrate and is used to store the electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic substrate 7;

[0067] The inverter is connected to the lithium battery pack and is used to convert the direct current of the lithium battery pack into alternating current for the air conditioner host.

[0072] The power supply modes include power supply from the power grid to the air conditioner host alone and power supply from the power grid and the photovoltaic power generation unit to the air conditioner host in coordination.

[0073] Those skilled in the art can understand that there is no limitation on the type of switch, as long as the power supply mode of the air conditioner host can be controlled, and those skilled in the art can make adaptive adjustments to the type of switch in actual applications.

[0074] In practice, the photovoltaic air conditioner of the present invention overcomes the problem of unstable grid operation caused by unbalanced load of power allocation by setting up a grid interaction unit and accurately measuring the power transmitted from the photovoltaic substrate 7 to the grid, thereby improving the stability of the operation of the photovoltaic air conditioner.

[0075] Specifically, the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate is the ratio of the output electric power of the photovoltaic substrate to the surface solar radiation power of the photovoltaic substrate.

[0076] In implementation, the surface solar radiation power of the photovoltaic substrate 7 is the product of the solar radiation power density measured by a solar radiometer and the area of ​​the photovoltaic substrate 7 .

[0077] Specifically, the solar radiation power density is the actual radiation power density measured by a solar radiometer, with the unit of watts per square meter.

[0078] Specifically, the grid interaction unit is connected to the second temperature sensor 6, the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the energy storage unit respectively, so as to obtain the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7, and calculate the linear fit between the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 at several sampling moments;

[0079] If the linear fit is greater than a preset linear fit, the compensation control unit determines that the influence of the ambient temperature on the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 does not meet the requirements, and adjusts the energy storage power ratio of the energy storage unit.

[0080] In implementation, a number of sampling moments are selected at equal time intervals and the linear fit between the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 at the number of sampling moments is calculated.

[0081] Specifically, the linear fit is a conventional technical means well known to those skilled in the art, so the calculation process of the linear fit is not described here in detail.

[0082] Optionally, the preset linear fit value range may be [1.3, 1.6];

[0083] Preferably, the preferred embodiment of the preset linear fit degree is 1.5.

[0084] In a specific embodiment, the linear fit is 1.7, which is greater than the preset linear fit. The compensation control unit determines that the influence of the ambient temperature on the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 does not meet the requirements. For every 0.1 increase in the linear fit over the preset linear fit, the energy storage power ratio of the energy storage unit increases by 2% compared with the current energy storage power ratio. The current energy storage power ratio is 60%, and the increased energy storage power ratio is 60+(1.7-1.5) / 0.1×2=64%.

[0085] Specifically, the linear fit between the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is the degree of influence of the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 on the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 per unit time. The calculation method of the linear fit between the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is an existing technology well known to those skilled in the art, so the calculation method of the linear fit will not be elaborated here.

[0086] In practice, the photovoltaic air conditioner of the present invention sets a preset linear fit, obtains the ambient temperature and power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7, and combines these two key factors to determine the energy storage power ratio of the energy storage unit, thereby overcoming the problem of excessive or insufficient storage of electricity due to ambient temperature or weather conditions. Excessive storage may cause self-discharge losses in the energy storage device, while insufficient storage may not be able to meet electricity demand during subsequent peak electricity consumption or poor light periods, thereby improving the efficiency of the coordinated operation of the entire photovoltaic power generation unit and the energy storage unit.

[0087] Specifically, the energy storage capacity ratio of the energy storage unit is the ratio of the current storage capacity of the lithium battery pack to the maximum storage capacity of the lithium battery pack.

[0088] Specifically, the fluctuation amplitude of the photovoltaic power generation voltage is the difference between the maximum power generation voltage and the minimum power generation voltage of the photovoltaic substrate within a number of sampling periods.

[0089] Specifically, the compensation control unit is respectively connected to the photovoltaic substrate 7, the energy storage unit and the grid interaction unit, and is also used to obtain the fluctuation amplitude of the photovoltaic power generation voltage and the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7;

[0090] Under the condition that the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is within the preset ambient temperature range and the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 is less than the preset power generation efficiency, if the fluctuation amplitude of the photovoltaic power generation voltage is greater than the preset fluctuation amplitude, the compensation control unit determines that the stability of the power grid does not meet the requirements, and starts the power grid to compensate the voltage of the air conditioner;

[0091] The compensated voltage of the air conditioner is determined by the difference between the fluctuation amplitude of the photovoltaic power generation voltage and a preset fluctuation amplitude.

[0092] Optionally, the preset ambient temperature range may be in the range of [20° C., 27° C.], the preset power generation efficiency may be in the range of [17%, 25%], and the preset fluctuation amplitude may be in the range of [1V, 4V].

[0093] Preferably, the preferred embodiment of the preset ambient temperature range is [23° C., 25° C.], the preferred embodiment of the preset power generation efficiency is 20%, and the preferred embodiment of the preset fluctuation amplitude is 2V.

[0094] In a specific embodiment, the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is 24°C, the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 is 20%, and the fluctuation amplitude of the photovoltaic power generation voltage is 3V, which is greater than the preset fluctuation amplitude. The grid starts to compensate the air conditioner for the voltage. For every 1V that the fluctuation amplitude of the photovoltaic power generation voltage is greater than the preset fluctuation amplitude, the grid increases the voltage compensation for the air conditioner by 0.6V compared with the current voltage compensation. The current voltage compensation is 2V, and the increased voltage compensation is 2+(3-2)×0.6=2.6V.

[0095] In practice, the photovoltaic air conditioner of the present invention sets a preset fluctuation amplitude, and the compensation control unit obtains the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the fluctuation amplitude of the photovoltaic power generation voltage to determine whether to start the grid voltage compensation for the air conditioner, thereby overcoming the problem of unstable voltage received by the photovoltaic air conditioner due to power peaks and power equipment failures, reducing the problems of frequent starting and stopping of the photovoltaic air conditioner and poor cooling or heating effects due to voltage abnormalities, and improving the safety and stability of the operation of the photovoltaic air conditioner.

[0096] Specifically, the compensation control unit is connected to the photovoltaic substrate 7, the first temperature sensor 2 and the heat dissipation unit respectively, and is also used to obtain the heat dissipation temperature of the heat dissipation motor, and calculate the difference between the decrease in the heat dissipation temperature of the heat dissipation motor and the increase in the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7.

[0097] If the difference is less than a preset difference, the compensation control unit determines that the influence of the heat dissipated by the heat dissipation motor on the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 exceeds an allowable range, and increases the rotation speed of the heat dissipation motor.

[0098] Optionally, the preset difference value may be in the range of [5°C, 8°C];

[0099] Preferably, the preset difference is 6°C.

[0100] In a specific embodiment, the difference between the decrease in the heat dissipation temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit and the increase in the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is 5°C, which is less than the preset difference. For every 1°C that the difference between the decrease in the heat dissipation temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit and the increase in the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is less than the preset difference, the speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit increases by 10% compared with the current speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit. The current speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit is 2000r / min, and the increased speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit is 2000r / min.

[0101] In implementation, the photovoltaic air conditioner of the present invention sets a preset difference, and the compensation control unit determines whether to adjust the rotation speed of the heat dissipation motor by obtaining the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the heat dissipation temperature of the heat dissipation motor, thereby overcoming the problem that the heat dissipation temperature of the external unit increases due to long-term operation of the air conditioner, thereby causing the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 to increase, and then causing the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 to decrease, and reducing the risk of system failure caused by mutual influence between equipment.
