[0074] In the implementation, the photovoltaic air conditioner overcomes the problem of unstable grid operation caused by unbalanced power allocation load by setting a grid interaction unit and accurately measuring the power delivered to the grid by the photovoltaic substrate 7, thereby improving the stability of the photovoltaic air conditioner operation.
[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 the implementation, the surface solar radiation power of the photovoltaic substrate 7 is the product of the solar radiation power density measured by a solar radiation meter and the area of the photovoltaic substrate 7.

[0084] In a specific embodiment, the linear fitting degree is 1.7, greater than the preset linear fitting degree, the compensation control unit determines that the degree of influence of the ambient temperature on the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 does not meet the requirements, and the energy storage capacity ratio of the energy storage unit is increased by 2% for each 0.1 increase in the linear fitting degree greater than the preset linear fitting degree. When the current energy storage capacity ratio is 60%, the increased energy storage capacity ratio is 60+(1.7-1.5) / 0.1*2=64%.
[0085] Specifically, the linear fitting degree of the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the ambient air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is the degree of influence of the ambient air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 on the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 per unit time.

[0086] In implementation, the photovoltaic air conditioner of the present application determines the energy storage capacity ratio of the energy storage unit by setting a preset linear fitting degree, obtaining the ambient temperature and power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7, and comprehensively considering these two key factors, thereby overcoming the problem of excessive storage or insufficient storage of electrical energy caused by ambient temperature or weather conditions. Excessive storage may cause self-discharge loss of the energy storage device, and insufficient storage may not meet the electricity demand during subsequent peak electricity consumption or poor light periods, thereby improving the efficiency of the cooperative 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 range 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 plurality of sampling periods.
[0089] Specifically, the compensation control unit is connected to the photovoltaic substrate 7, the energy storage unit, and the grid interaction unit, and is also used to obtain the fluctuation range of the photovoltaic power generation voltage and the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7.
[0090] Under the condition that the ambient 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 range of the photovoltaic power generation voltage is greater than the preset fluctuation range, the compensation control unit determines that the stability of the grid does not meet the requirements, and starts the 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 range of the photovoltaic power generation voltage and the preset fluctuation range.
[0092] Optionally, the preset ambient temperature range can be [20℃, 27℃], the preset power generation efficiency can be [17%, 25%], and the preset fluctuation range can be [1V, 4V].
[0093] Preferably, the preferred embodiment of the preset ambient temperature range is [23℃, 25℃], the preferred embodiment of the preset power generation efficiency is 20%, and the preferred embodiment of the preset fluctuation range is 2V.
[0094] In a specific embodiment, the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is 24℃, the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 is 20%, and the fluctuation range of the photovoltaic power generation voltage is 3V, which is greater than the preset fluctuation range. The voltage compensation of the power grid to the air conditioner is started, and the voltage compensation of the power grid to the air conditioner is increased by 0.6V for each 1V that the fluctuation range of the photovoltaic power generation voltage is greater than the preset fluctuation range. The current voltage compensation is 2V, and the increased voltage compensation is 2+(3-2)×0.6=2.6V.
[0095] In implementation, the photovoltaic air conditioner described in the present application overcomes the problem of unstable voltage received by the photovoltaic air conditioner due to power peak and power equipment failure by setting the preset fluctuation range, and the compensation control unit acquires the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7 and the fluctuation range of the photovoltaic power generation voltage to determine whether to start the voltage compensation of the power grid to the air conditioner. The problem of frequent start-stop of the photovoltaic air conditioner, poor refrigeration or heating effect due to voltage abnormalities is reduced, and the safety and stability of the operation of the photovoltaic air conditioner are improved.
[0096] Specifically, the compensation control unit is connected to the photovoltaic substrate 7, the first temperature sensor 2, and the heat dissipation unit, and is also used to acquire the heat dissipation temperature of the heat dissipation motor and calculate the difference between the decrease of the heat dissipation temperature of the heat dissipation motor and the increase of 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 dissipation of the heat dissipation motor on the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 exceeds the allowed range, and increases the speed of the heat dissipation motor.
[0098] Optionally, the preset difference can be [5℃, 8℃];
[0099] Preferably, the preferred embodiment of the preset difference is 6℃.
[0100] In a specific embodiment, the difference between the decrease of the heat dissipation temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit and the increase of the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7 is 5°C, which is less than the preset difference value. For each 1°C less than the preset difference value, the rotation speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit is increased by 10% than the current rotation speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit. When the current rotation speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit is 2000 r / min, the increased rotation speed of the heat dissipation motor of the air conditioner outdoor unit is 2000 + 2000 × [(6-5)] × 10% = 2200 r / min.
[0101] In the implementation, the photovoltaic air conditioner described in the present application sets a preset difference value. The 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, which overcomes the problem that the heat dissipation temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit increases due to long-time operation of the air conditioner, which leads to the increase of the air temperature around the photovoltaic substrate 7, and further leads to the decrease of the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic substrate 7. The system failure risk caused by the mutual influence between devices is reduced.
