Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of photovoltaic module testing, and in particular to an experimental platform for testing the combustion behavior of photovoltaic modules. Background Art

[0002] Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is a technology that integrates photovoltaic products into buildings, which can effectively reduce the use of fossil energy and accelerate the urban carbon neutrality process, and has received extensive attention and application around the world. However, the layout of the photovoltaic system will significantly increase the fire load of the building itself, and it is prone to cause serious building fire accidents.

[0003] When a short - circuit fault occurs in the photovoltaic system or the "hot spot" effect occurs, the photovoltaic module will spontaneously combust and the fire will spread. At the same time, the fire will also ignite the external thermal insulation materials of the building or the waterproof layer on the building roof, which is extremely likely to cause the expansion of the fire. In addition, in order to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the photovoltaic system, there is a gap between the photovoltaic system and the outside of the building. The gap will have a significant impact on the "chimney" effect, thereby affecting the flame spread rate and the smoke entrainment volume, and triggering more serious building fire accidents.

[0004] In the field of photovoltaic fire safety technology, there is currently a variable - angle solar panel heating test system and method (application publication number CN 119086642 A). This patent can conduct heating tests on various types of photovoltaic modules with different inclination angles, and analyze the fire performance of photovoltaic modules under the influence of different radiation heat sources. However, this patent does not consider the interaction relationship between the building and the photovoltaic module, nor can it simulate the photovoltaic fire scenarios of actual photovoltaic curtain walls or roofs. Its main function is the heat - resistance performance test of photovoltaic modules. Therefore, an experimental system that can simulate the fire of building integrated photovoltaics has been developed, which can observe and analyze the occurrence and development law of photovoltaic system fires under the coupling of multiple factors, clarify the fire hazards of different types of photovoltaic modules, and provide an experimental platform and data support for the forefront research of building photovoltaic safety.
