Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plant screening, in particular to a method for screening desert windbreak and erosion-resistant plants used in photovoltaic arrays. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of photovoltaic power generation technology, the deployment of large-scale photovoltaic power plants in desert areas has become an important way to meet energy needs. However, strong winds and high concentrations of sand and dust in desert environments pose significant challenges to the operation of photovoltaic arrays, including the following issues:

[0003] Dust coverage and equipment loss: The movement of wind and sand will cause a large amount of dust to settle on the surface of photovoltaic panels, reducing their photoelectric conversion efficiency. At the same time, dust particles hitting the equipment surface at high wind speeds will cause wear and tear, shortening the service life of the equipment.

[0004] Limitations of traditional protection measures: While currently widely used physical barriers (such as windbreaks) and chemical sand fixation agents can partially reduce wind-blown sand erosion, they are complex to construct, costly, and environmentally unfriendly. Furthermore, these methods lack specificity to the dynamic dispersion characteristics of specific dust sources.

However, traditional plant screening methods rely heavily on empirical judgment and lack scientific evaluation standards.

[0091] S21, Sensor Deployment and Calibration: Deploy multispectral laser scattering sensors in the target photovoltaic array area. The sensors are installed at a height of 1-2 meters above the ground to ensure they can capture the energy dynamics of actual wind-blown sand. The sensors are calibrated for sensitivity across the optical wavelength range (400-1000 nm) to accommodate the strong scattering characteristics of the dusty environment.

[0092] S22, wind and sand kinetic energy measurement: The density change of dust flow is detected by the light scattering intensity of the laser beam and dust particles, and the wind speed data is obtained in real time in combination with the wind speed sensor;

[0093] The sensor collects wind speed and kinetic energy intensity data at a set sampling frequency of 10 times per second. Based on the monitoring data, it generates a time-series change curve of the kinetic energy intensity distribution of dust in the target area, analyzes the high-intensity areas, transition areas and low-intensity areas of kinetic energy intensity, and provides a direct basis for reconstructing the dynamic diffusion path of dust flow in the photovoltaic array.

[0101] S32, input of dust kinetic energy intensity: input the kinetic energy intensity of dust per unit volume Converted into corresponding dust flow load , as input parameters for fluid dynamics simulation;

[0102] S33, Turbulence Modeling: Based on the wind field data and dust kinetic energy intensity of the target PV array area, a turbulence model is used to simulate the diffusion behavior of dust particles in the wind field. Boundary conditions (such as the geometry of the PV array equipment and the ground friction coefficient) are set to reconstruct the velocity and concentration fields of the dust flow.

[0103] S34, dynamic diffusion path simulation: Through computational fluid dynamics simulation of the dynamic diffusion path of dust particles in the wind field, the movement trajectory of dust in the wind field is reconstructed to generate a diffusion path map. The diffusion path includes the main direction of dust, high concentration area, sedimentation area and dust return flow area.

[0104] The computational fluid dynamics modeling in S33 is a macro-level calculation, focusing on the motion state of dust as a whole fluid; the continuity equation and momentum conservation equation describe the velocity field, pressure field, and density distribution of the airflow and dust flow in the entire flow field; the global flow characteristics of the dust diffusion path are output, defining the flow law of dust in the wind field and providing global background information for particle trajectory calculation.

[0105] The dynamic diffusion path calculation in S34 is a micro-level calculation based on the macroscopic flow field. It performs detailed modeling on the movement of a single or a group of dust particles, describes the movement of a single particle in the wind field, and takes into account the influence of specific forces such as resistance and gravity; it outputs the actual movement trajectory of the dust particles, showing how the particles are carried, settled, or refluxed in the flow field.

[0106] In other words, S33 provides a "global map" of dust diffusion (flow field and concentration distribution), and the dynamic diffusion path calculation is refined to particle behavior, describing how these particles move specifically along this "map".

[0107] Specifically, the logic of this part of dynamic diffusion path reconstruction is described as follows:

The spatial and temporal distribution of these data constitute the initial wind field model. The initial model describes the overall dynamic characteristics of the wind field, captures the macroscopic characteristics of the wind field, and provides a basis for the next step of analysis.

[0109] (2) The kinetic energy intensity is further converted into the impact force of dust on unit area (i.e., dust flow load). This process takes into account how the kinetic energy of dust acts on the photovoltaic array or the ground. The dust flow load describes the direct physical effect of dust on the photovoltaic array, and its spatial and temporal distribution is used as the input boundary condition of the fluid dynamics model.

[0110] (3) Based on wind field data and dust flow loads, a turbulence model is used to simulate the diffusion behavior of dust flow in the wind field. The model describes the global dynamic characteristics of the wind and sand flow through the continuity equation and the momentum conservation equation. The output results include the velocity field, pressure field and concentration distribution of the dust. These results reflect the global movement law and spatial diffusion characteristics of the dust in the target photovoltaic array area.

[0111] (4) Further analyze the motion trajectory of individual dust particles, simulate and consider various forces such as resistance and gravity on the particles, and calculate the actual path of the particles in the wind field, including how the particles are carried, settled or refluxed. The dynamic diffusion path refines the microscopic characteristics of the dust flow and can clarify the movement behavior of particles at different positions. The results are visualized as a diffusion path map and an impact force distribution map.

[0112] Dust flow load is the impact force of dust kinetic energy on unit area, which is calculated as:

[0113] ,in, is the dust flow load, is the unit area, is the action time, The spatial and temporal distribution of dust is used as the external input boundary conditions for computational fluid dynamics simulation to represent the dynamic force of dust on the target photovoltaic array area.

[0114] The turbulence model in S33 calculates the diffusion range of dust in the wind field. The key equations of the turbulence model include:

[0115] Continuity equation (conservation of mass): ;

[0116] Momentum conservation equation (Navier-Stokes equation):

[0117] ;

[0118] in, is the velocity field vector, is the fluid density, It's a pressure field. is the fluid dynamic viscosity coefficient, is the dust flow load, Represents the gradient operator, which is used to describe the changes of velocity field and pressure field in space.

[0119] The motion trajectory of the reconstructed dust in the wind field in S34 is expressed as:

[0120] ,in, is the dust particle position vector, is the drag coefficient, is the relative velocity vector of the dust particles, which is the current velocity of the dust particles minus the initial wind velocity field get, is the acceleration due to gravity, is the cross-sectional area of the particle, is the air density.

[0121] The simulation results are output and visualized as a dust dispersion path map, showing the main flow direction, high concentration areas, sedimentation areas and backflow areas of the dust flow.
