[0028] In this embodiment, a method for cleaning a photovoltaic panel is provided. Figure 2 is a flow chart of a photovoltaic panel cleaning method according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps S202-S206:
[0029] Step S202: collecting pollutants from the photovoltaic panel and analyzing the collected pollutants to obtain pollutant collection results;
[0030] Step S204: performing a weather forecast on a target area to obtain a weather forecast result for the target area in a first time period, wherein the photovoltaic panel is located in the target area;
[0031] Step S206: determining a photovoltaic cleaning strategy for cleaning the photovoltaic panel according to the pollutant collection result and the meteorological forecast result, and cleaning the photovoltaic panel according to the photovoltaic cleaning strategy.
[0032] Through the above steps, pollutants are first collected from the photovoltaic panels, and the collected pollutants are analyzed to obtain pollutant collection results; then, a meteorological forecast is conducted on the target area where the photovoltaic panels are located to obtain the meteorological forecast results for the target area in the first time period; finally, the most appropriate photovoltaic cleaning strategy is intelligently determined in combination with the pollutant collection results and the meteorological forecast results, and the photovoltaic panels are cleaned using the photovoltaic cleaning strategy; the above scheme is used to intelligently adjust the cleaning strategy in combination with the actual meteorological conditions and the pollution situation of the photovoltaic panels, thereby saving energy while ensuring the cleanliness of the photovoltaic panels; thereby solving the problem in related technologies that traditional photovoltaic cleaning methods lack intelligence, which may lead to excessive cleaning or untimely cleaning, resulting in energy waste or reduced power generation efficiency.
[0033] In an exemplary embodiment, pollutants are collected from a photovoltaic panel, and the collected pollutants are analyzed to obtain pollutant collection results, including: collecting pollutants from the photovoltaic panel through a collection component, and obtaining the pollutants collected by the collection component; performing category detection on the pollutants to obtain the pollutant category of the pollutants, and performing weight detection on the pollutants to determine the accumulation degree of the pollutants; determining the pollutant collection results according to the pollutant category and the accumulation degree.
[0034] The process of collecting and analyzing pollutants includes: first, using a collection component to collect pollutants from the photovoltaic panel and collect the collected pollutants; on the one hand, the pollutants are classified and determined; on the other hand, the pollutants are weighed and the degree of accumulation of pollutants is determined. The types of pollutants include dust, dirt, bird droppings, etc.
[0035] For example, the collection component can be understood as a self-sampling module, including a sticky brush. The center wheel and drive wheel of the sticky brush are equipped with torque sensors. The self-sampling module is also equipped with a self-weighing instrument and a small camera to view the surface of the sticky brush. The sticky brush rolls along the surface of the photovoltaic panel for multiple circles. The sticky brush can judge the type and accumulation degree of pollutants based on the friction torque and driving torque feedback, as well as the weighing changes after bringing back the pollutants and the image of the sticky brush attachments, such as the accumulation degree of dust, dirt, bird droppings and other pollutants.
[0036] Optionally, a weather forecast is performed on the target area to obtain a weather forecast result for the target area in a first time period, including: obtaining historical weather data of the target area in a second time period, wherein the first time period is later than the second time period; processing the historical weather data through a time series model to obtain the weather forecast result for the target area in the first time period, wherein the weather forecast result includes at least one of the following: whether it will rain, the amount of rainfall, and the air quality.
[0037] Weather forecasting for the target area can be accomplished through a weather forecast module, which collects weather data (i.e., the above-mentioned historical weather data) from the past year (the data is used only as an example, and can also be other times) in advance, such as rainfall, wind speed, humidity, temperature, and sandstorms, etc., and predicts the weather for the next 24 hours (the first time period) based on the LSTM model (time series model), especially the rainfall. The forecast results include whether there will be rainfall in the future, the amount of rainfall, whether there will be sandstorms, etc.
[0038] Optionally, a photovoltaic cleaning strategy for cleaning the photovoltaic panel is determined based on the pollutant collection result and the meteorological forecast result, including: when the pollutant collection result indicates that the first pollution level of the photovoltaic panel is less than a first threshold value, and the meteorological forecast result indicates that there is rainfall in the target area within the first time period, determining to prohibit cleaning of the photovoltaic panel; when the pollutant collection result indicates that the first pollution level is greater than the first threshold value, and the meteorological forecast result indicates that there is no rainfall in the target area within the first time period, determining to clean the photovoltaic panel by a cleaning device.
[0039] The work of determining the photovoltaic cleaning strategy can be completed by the cleaning strategy control module. The cleaning strategy control module will formulate a reasonable photovoltaic cleaning strategy based on the meteorological forecast results and self-sampling data (i.e., the above-mentioned pollutant collection results), such as the pollution level threshold, rainfall waiting time, etc. If it is predicted that there will be rainfall in the future, and the current pollution level of the photovoltaic panel is relatively light (i.e., the first pollution level is less than the first threshold), you can choose to wait for the rainfall to clean naturally, without actively cleaning the photovoltaic panel; if it is predicted that there will be no rainfall in the future, and the pollution level of the photovoltaic panel is relatively heavy (i.e., the first pollution level is greater than the first threshold), the cleaning equipment is started for cleaning.
[0040] Optionally, before determining to clean the photovoltaic panel by a cleaning device, the method further includes: determining a type of the cleaning device according to the first contamination level, wherein the cleaning device includes: a high-pressure water gun, a robot, and a drone.
[0041] Furthermore, after determining that the photovoltaic panels need to be cleaned by cleaning equipment, you can further select cleaning methods of different intensities according to the degree of contamination. The different cleaning methods specifically include: high-pressure water gun cleaning, brush cleaning, robot cleaning, drone cleaning, etc. You can choose the cleaning method of corresponding intensity according to the specific degree of contamination to achieve the best cleaning effect.
[0042] Optionally, after determining that the photovoltaic panel is cleaned by the cleaning device, the method further includes: cleaning the photovoltaic panel by the cleaning device; collecting pollutants from the photovoltaic panel by a collection component, and acquiring the pollutants collected by the collection component; performing weight detection on the pollutants to determine the accumulation degree of the pollutants, and determining a second contamination degree of the photovoltaic panel based on the accumulation degree; when it is determined that the second contamination degree is greater than a second threshold, re-cleaning the photovoltaic panel by the cleaning device.
[0043] Optionally, the photovoltaic panel cleaning system provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes a re-checking module. After determining that the photovoltaic panel is cleaned by the cleaning equipment, or after waiting for natural cleaning by rainfall, the re-checking module will re-check the cleaning effect of the photovoltaic panel through the self-sampling module. If the cleaning effect is not achieved (that is, the second pollution level is greater than the second threshold), it is necessary to call the cleaning equipment again for cleaning to ensure that the photovoltaic panel can be completely cleaned.
[0044] The method described in the above embodiment can be carried out as follows Figure 3 The photovoltaic panel cleaning system shown is implemented as Figure 3As shown, the system specifically includes: a weather forecast module 32, a self-sampling module 34, a cleaning strategy control module 36, a re-checking module 38, and a cleaning control system software 40. The functions of each module are introduced below:
[0045] Weather forecast module 32: By collecting weather data from the past year, such as rainfall, wind speed, humidity, temperature, and sandstorms, the weather, especially rainfall, of the next 24 hours is forecasted based on the LSTM model. The forecast results include whether there will be rainfall, rainfall amount, and whether there will be sandstorms.
[0046] Self-sampling module 34: A sticky brush can be set in the vertical and horizontal directions of the photovoltaic panel. The center wheel and the driving wheel of the sticky brush are equipped with torque sensors. The self-sampling module is also equipped with a self-weighing instrument and a small camera to view the surface of the sticky brush. The sticky brush rolls along the surface of the photovoltaic panel for multiple circles. The sticky brush can detect the type and accumulation degree of pollutants based on the friction torque and driving torque feedback, as well as the weighing changes after pollution and the image of the sticky brush attachment, such as the accumulation degree of dust, dirt, bird droppings and other pollutants.
[0047] Cleaning strategy control module 36: According to the meteorological forecast results and self-sampling data, formulate a reasonable photovoltaic cleaning strategy, such as pollution level threshold, rainfall waiting time, etc. If it is predicted that there will be rainfall in the future and the current pollution level of the photovoltaic panel is relatively light, you can choose to wait for rainfall for natural cleaning; if it is predicted that there will be no rainfall in the future and the pollution level of the photovoltaic panel is relatively heavy, start the cleaning equipment for cleaning. The cleaning equipment can choose different cleaning methods according to the pollution level, such as high-pressure water gun cleaning, brush cleaning, robot cleaning, drone cleaning, etc.
[0048] It should be noted that the above only illustrates two simple examples of optional cleaning strategies. In actual application, different situations can be subdivided more finely according to the amount of rainfall, wind speed and degree of pollution, and different cleaning strategies can be formulated. For example, when the rainfall is small, low-power cleaning equipment can be used to assist in cleaning, and the cleaning effect can also be achieved. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0049] Re-check module 38: The self-sampling module can be used to repeat the cleaning effect check (i.e., the pollutant collection and analysis process). If the cleaning effect is not achieved, the cleaning equipment is called again for cleaning.
[0050] Cleaning control system software 40: Intelligent control of the entire cleaning process, including dust-related meteorological forecast models, torque, image, and weighing information collection and diagnosis of the self-sampling module, start, stop, and operating parameter adjustment of the automated cleaning equipment, etc. At the same time, the system can conduct self-learning and optimization according to actual conditions, and continuously improve the accuracy and effectiveness of the cleaning strategy.
[0051] Through the above system and method, on the one hand, through weather forecasting and self-sampling technology, the cleaning needs of photovoltaic panels can be timely and accurately determined, avoiding unnecessary cleaning operations and improving cleaning efficiency. On the other hand, keeping the photovoltaic panel clean can improve its light transmittance, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel.
[0052] Through the description of the above implementation methods, those skilled in the art can clearly understand that the method according to the above embodiment can be implemented by means of software plus a necessary general hardware platform, and of course by hardware, but in many cases the former is a better implementation method. Based on such an understanding, the technical solution of the present application, or the part that contributes to the prior art, can be embodied in the form of a software product, which is stored in a storage medium (such as ROM / RAM, magnetic disk, optical disk), and includes a number of instructions for a terminal device (which can be a mobile phone, computer, server, or network device, etc.) to execute the methods of each embodiment of the present application.
