Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of photovoltaic technology, and in particular, to a method, device, equipment, and storage medium for adjusting the inclination angle of a flexible photovoltaic support. Background Art

[0002] A flexible photovoltaic support is a large-span photovoltaic module support structure designed based on a tension structure system and using cables as component support members. Compared with traditional rigid supports, it has the characteristics of "large span, high clearance, and long row spacing", which enable the flexible support to adapt to more complex and diverse installation environments. The structure of the flexible photovoltaic support uses prestressed chords (steel wires) tensioned between two fixed points at both ends, and the two fixed points use a rigid structure and an outer stay cable to provide support force, adapting to situations such as mountain undulations and increased vegetation. Only by setting a foundation at a suitable position and tensioning the prestressed steel strands or steel wires can a structure of rigid columns, foundations, and flexible supports be realized in lakes and fish ponds under the condition of constant water level.

[0003] Currently, the inclination angle adjustment method for flexible photovoltaic supports is usually directly determined by the empirical method, and the determination methods are diverse and not unified. Specifically: in the Northern Hemisphere, the optimal installation angle of the photovoltaic panel is approximately between 30 degrees and 40 degrees because the altitude angle of the sun in the sky in the Northern Hemisphere is relatively low, while in the Southern Hemisphere, the optimal installation angle of the photovoltaic panel is approximately between 50 degrees and 60 degrees; the inclination angle of a fixedly installed photovoltaic solar panel is usually set between 28 degrees and 35 degrees; if equipped with an adjustable installation system, the inclination angle in summer can be set between 20 degrees and 25 degrees, and in winter it can be adjusted to 45 degrees to 50 degrees; the inclination angle of a fixed solar panel is generally between 20 degrees and 30 degrees, which can balance the daily average receiving efficiency of the solar panel and adapt to the changes in the photovoltaic power output under different seasons and weather conditions. Generally speaking, the optimal photovoltaic inclination angle under different latitudes is the local latitude plus 5 degrees to 10 degrees.

[0004] As can be seen from the above, the entire process of adjusting the inclination angle of the flexible photovoltaic support is set by artificial subjective experience, resulting in the introduction of subjective experience errors. Not only can different inclination angles not be customized for different regions, but the standards set by artificial subjectivity are not unified, further amplifying the errors, resulting in insufficient utilization of light resources, and further leading to an unsatisfactory power generation efficiency of the flexible photovoltaic array. Summary of the Invention

[0068] An electronic device includes a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, and the memory stores program instructions executable by the processor; when the processor executes the program instructions stored in the memory, the above-mentioned tilt angle adjustment method is implemented.

[0069] To achieve the above object, the present application also provides the following technical solutions:

[0070] A storage medium stores program instructions therein, and when the program instructions are executed by a processor, the above-mentioned tilt angle adjustment method can be implemented.

[0071] In this application, the initial service length of the upper chord cable is adjusted several times within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the upper chord cable with a preset adjustment length. Based on each adjustment, the real-time tilt angle of each photovoltaic panel, the real-time service length of the upper chord cable, and the real-time tensile stress of the upper chord cable are obtained once; the initial service length of the lower chord cable is adjusted several times within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the lower chord cable with a preset adjustment length.

This application utilizes the characteristic that the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel of the flexible photovoltaic support can be adjusted by retracting and releasing the upper and lower chord cables. By analyzing the linear relationship between the lengths of the upper and lower chord cables of the flexible photovoltaic support and the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel, the relationship between the behavior of changing the retracting and releasing length and the behavior of changing the tilt angle is clarified, providing a quantitative basis for adjusting the tilt angle according to the solar radiation distribution subsequently. Then, the solar high-radiation habitual area is defined according to the extreme value distribution in the solar radiation distribution. Finally, the tilt angle is adjusted according to the distance between the photovoltaic panel and the center of the solar high-radiation habitual area, realizing that the farther the photovoltaic panel is from the radiation center, the larger the tilt angle, so that the panel of the photovoltaic panel can face the radiation center with a larger area, thereby improving the light-receiving efficiency. Compared with the manual subjective experience setting in the prior art, this application provides a tilt angle adjustment method with a unique standard, quantifiable, and relatively accurate, without the need for manual participation throughout the process, avoiding the tilt angle adjustment error caused by the previous manual subjective experience.

[0079] As Figure 1 shown, this embodiment provides an embodiment of a method for adjusting the tilt angle of a flexible photovoltaic bracket. In this embodiment, the tilt angle adjustment method is applied to a flexible photovoltaic bracket that has been deployed in a preset area. The flexible photovoltaic bracket includes two steel beam frames fixed to the ground, an upper chord cable and a lower chord cable arranged between the two steel beam frames, and a plurality of photovoltaic panels installed on the upper chord cable and the lower chord cable.

[0080] Preferably, two anchoring cables are also required to fix the upper chord cable and the lower chord cable. One end of each anchoring cable bypasses the steel beam frame and is anchored to the ground, and the other end of each anchoring cable is fixedly connected to the upper chord cable or the lower chord cable. The upper chord cable, the lower chord cable, and the anchoring cables are all made of steel strands with a diameter of 15.2 mm. Then, the photovoltaic panels are installed on the upper chord cable and the lower chord cable. The two steel beam frames are "1-span", and the site selection methods in the following text of this embodiment are all based on the midpoint of the "1-span" for site selection. Generally, 16 photovoltaic panels are installed in each span, the interval between the photovoltaic panels is 30 mm, and the interval of the photovoltaic panels at the mid-span position is 300 mm. The length of a single photovoltaic panel is 2278 mm, the width is 1134 mm, and the thickness is 30 mm.

[0081] Specifically, the tilt angle adjustment method includes the following steps:

[0082] Step S1, within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the upper chord cable, adjust the initial use length of the upper chord cable several times with a preset adjustment length, and obtain the real-time tilt angle of each photovoltaic panel, the real-time use length of the upper chord cable, and the real-time tensile stress of the upper chord cable once for each adjustment.

[0083] Step S2, within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the lower chord cable, adjust the initial use length of the lower chord cable several times with a preset adjustment length, and obtain the real-time tilt angle of each photovoltaic panel, the real-time use length of the lower chord cable, and the real-time tensile stress of the lower chord cable once for each adjustment.

[0084] Preferably, the maximum allowable tensile stress of the upper chord cable and the lower chord cable can be directly obtained from the manufacturer or measured by oneself.

[0085] Step S3, analyze the mutual relationship between all real-time tilt angles and the real-time use lengths of all upper chord cables, the real-time tensile stresses of all upper chord cables, the real-time use lengths of all lower chord cables, and the real-time tensile stresses of all lower chord cables through multiple linear regression to obtain the relationship formula between the tilt angle and the chord length.

[0086] Preferably, LASSO linear regression is preferred in this embodiment.

[0087] Step S4, obtain all the maximum values of the solar radiation distribution in the preset area, and the minimum covering circle of all the maximum values.

[0088] Step S5, define a length interval from zero to the radius length based on the radius length of the minimum covering circle.

[0089] For example, if the radius of the minimum covering circle is 3 km, the length interval is [0, 3 km], where 0 is at the center of the circle and 3 km is at the circumference.

[0090] Step S6, obtain the maximum tilt angle of each photovoltaic panel based on the relationship formula between the tilt angle and the chord length, and define an angle interval from zero degree to the maximum tilt angle.

[0091] For example, the maximum tilt angle of a certain type of flexible photovoltaic support can reach 45 degrees, and the tilt angle during normal use is 15 degrees to 20 degrees. Then the angle range is [0, 45°].

[0092] Step S7: Obtain the horizontal distance between the flexible photovoltaic support and the center of the minimum covering circle, as well as the data position corresponding to the horizontal distance in the length interval.

[0093] For example, if the horizontal distance between a certain flexible photovoltaic support and the center of the minimum covering circle is 1.5 km, then the corresponding data position is 1.5 km / 3 km = 0.5, that is, the 50% data position.

[0094] Step S8: Based on the data position, obtain the same data position in the angle range, which is the optimal tilt angle of the flexible photovoltaic support.

[0095] For example, if the data position of the above flexible photovoltaic support is 50%, then it corresponds to the 50% data position in the angle range [0, 45°], that is, 22.5°.

[0096] Step S9: Substitute the optimal tilt angle into the relationship between the tilt angle and the chord length to obtain the optimal use length of the upper chord cable and the optimal use length of the lower chord cable.

[0097] For example, substituting 22.5° into the relationship of a certain type of flexible photovoltaic support, the use length of the upper chord cable is 31.33 m, and the use length of the lower chord cable is 35.71 m.

[0098] It should be noted that the use length is the length of the steel cable between two steel beam frames. Since the steel cable will definitely present a catenary state and cannot be a straight line, in this embodiment, the specific relationship is calculated through linear regression.

[0099] Preferably, since the steel cable will definitely present a catenary state, strictly speaking, there are slight differences in the tilt angles of each photovoltaic panel. When the computing power of the computer permits, the linear regression relationship can be calculated once for each individual photovoltaic panel.

[0100] Further, in step S9, substitute the optimal tilt angle into the relationship between the tilt angle and the chord length to obtain the optimal use length of the upper chord cable and the optimal use length of the lower chord cable. After that, the following steps are further included:

[0101] Step S10: Keep the midpoint position of the upper chord cable stationary based on the relative positions of the two steel beam frames.

[0102] Step S20: Based on the two steel beam frames, simultaneously relax or tighten the upper chord cable within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the upper chord cable through an external pulling member to achieve the optimal use length of the upper chord cable.

[0103] Step S30, keep the midpoint position of the lower chord cable stationary based on the relative positions of the two steel beam frames.

[0104] Step S40, based on the two steel beam frames, simultaneously relax or tighten the lower chord cable within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the lower chord cable through an external tension member to achieve the optimal service length of the lower chord cable.

[0105] Preferably, in this embodiment, by simultaneously retracting and releasing both ends of the steel cable, it is ensured that the photovoltaic panel is relatively stationary in the vertical plane, preventing the photovoltaic panel from hitting the steel beam frame.

[0106] Once again, it is stated that the service length is the length of the steel cable between the two steel beam frames, and the steel cable parts outside the two steel beam frames are not included.

[0107] Further, in step S3, through multiple linear regression, analyze the mutual relationships between all real-time tilt angles and the real-time service lengths of all upper chord cables, the real-time tensile stresses of all upper chord cables, the real-time service lengths of all lower chord cables, and the real-time tensile stresses of all lower chord cables, and obtain the relationship formula between the tilt angle and the chord length. The specific steps are as follows:

[0108] Step S31, perform normalization processing on all real-time tilt angles, the real-time service lengths of all upper chord cables, the real-time tensile stresses of all upper chord cables, the real-time service lengths of all lower chord cables, and the real-time tensile stresses of all lower chord cables.

[0109] Step S32, define the current real-time tilt angle as a dependent variable.

[0110] Step S33, define the real-time service length of the upper chord cable, the real-time tensile stress of the upper chord cable, the real-time service length of the lower chord cable, and the real-time tensile stress of the lower chord cable corresponding to the current real-time tilt angle as a set of independent variables.

[0111] Step S34, define the linear regression relationship between the current dependent variable and the current all independent variables through multiple linear regression.

[0112] Preferably, the multiple linear regression is shown as the following formula:

[0113]

[0119] Where, is the estimated value of β j , j = 1, 2, …, m, X is the matrix of all independent variables, X T is the transpose matrix of matrix X.

[0120] Preferably, since this embodiment lists four independent variables, then m = 4. If additional independent variables need to be added, they can be directly added.

[0121] It should be noted that the above additional content is only for principle explanation, and the symbolic meanings of the above additional content are not interoperable with those in other parts of this embodiment. If there are repeated symbols in the additional content at different positions, please understand them separately and do not relate them to each other.

[0122] Step S36: Substitute all the solved regression coefficients into all the linear regression relationships to obtain the relationship between the tilt angle and the chord length.

[0123] Preferably, the residual sum of squares of the linear regression can be used to judge the fitting effect of the model by comparing its magnitude.

[0124] Preferably, the judgment criterion for the residual sum of squares is that the smaller the better. That is, the smaller the residual sum of squares, the closer the predicted values of the model are to the actual observed values, and the better the fitting effect of the model; on the contrary, if the residual sum of squares is large, it indicates that there is a large deviation between the predicted values of the model and the actual observed values, and the fitting effect of the model is poor.

[0125] Furthermore, step S4: Obtain all the maximum values of the solar radiation distribution in the preset area, and the minimum covering circle of all the maximum values, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0138] Preferably, the preset intensity threshold can be set to two-thirds or three-fourths of the maximum light intensity in the preset area. The larger the preset intensity threshold, the fewer the number of maxima, and the smaller the minimum covering circle of the maxima. Conversely, to ensure that the site selection area of this embodiment is neither too large nor too small, relatively moderate values can be selected for the above two thresholds.

[0139] Preferably, the light intensity distribution can be directly queried from public channels or measured independently.

[0140] For example, the light intensity distribution in this embodiment can be obtained through various methods, including using professional equipment, software, and meteorological data platforms.

These devices have their own characteristics and are suitable for different measurement scenarios and requirements. For example, pyroelectric detectors have a fast response speed and are suitable for measuring pulsed lasers; CCD / CMOS cameras can capture the intensity distribution image when the laser beam passes through a specific plane.

These platforms usually integrate solar radiation data from multiple international institutions and provide data query services on a monthly, daily, or even hourly basis.

The front camera and light sensor of the mobile phone are used to measure the light intensity and display the current light intensity value. Although this method is relatively simple and easy to operate, its measurement accuracy and range may be affected by the mobile phone configuration and measurement environment.

[0147] Step S492: Obtain any two coordinate points p 1 and p 2 from all the projected coordinate points, and obtain an initial circle C 1 with the line segment p 2 p 2 as the diameter, where the subscript 2 of the initial circle C 2 represents the number of projected coordinate points inside the initial circle.

[0148] Step S493: Traverse each projected coordinate point in sequence, and determine whether the i-th projected coordinate point p i is located inside the first iterative circle C i-1 .

[0149] Step S494: Obtain a second iterative circle C 1 with the line segment p i p i as the diameter.

[0150] Step S495: Determine whether the j-th projected coordinate point p j is located inside the second iterative circle C i , where j < i. If the j-th projected coordinate point p j is not located inside the second iterative circle C i , then execute Step S496.

[0151] Step S496: Obtain a third iterative circle C 1 with the line segment p j p j as the diameter.

[0152] Step S497: Determine whether the k-th projected coordinate point p k is located inside the third iterative circle C j , where k < j < i. If the k-th projected coordinate point p k is not located inside the third iterative circle C j , then execute Step S498.

[0153] Step S498: Connect p i , p j , p k to form a triangle, and obtain the circumcircle of the triangle. The circumcircle is the minimum covering circle of all valid elevation coordinates.

[0154] Step S499, substitute the minimum covering circle of all valid elevation coordinates into Step S5.

[0155] Further, in Step S9, substitute the optimal tilt angle into the relationship between the tilt angle and the chord length to obtain the optimal usable length of the upper chord cable and the optimal usable length of the lower chord cable. After that, the following steps are also included:

[0156] Step S100, generate a visual digital model based on the preset area and the flexible photovoltaic support.

[0157] Step S200, mark the optimal usable length of the upper chord cable, the optimal usable length of the lower chord cable, and the optimal tilt angle at the position adjacent to the flexible photovoltaic support in the visual digital model to form a marked visual digital model.

[0168] In this embodiment, the initial service length of the upper chord is adjusted several times within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the upper chord by a preset adjustment length. Based on each adjustment, the real-time tilt angle of each photovoltaic panel, the real-time service length of the upper chord, and the real-time tensile stress of the upper chord are obtained once. The initial service length of the lower chord is adjusted several times within the maximum allowable tensile stress range of the lower chord by a preset adjustment length. Based on each adjustment, the real-time tilt angle of each photovoltaic panel, the real-time service length of the lower chord, and the real-time tensile stress of the lower chord are obtained once. The mutual relationships between all the real-time tilt angles and the real-time service lengths of all the upper chords, the real-time tensile stresses of all the upper chords, the real-time service lengths of all the lower chords, and the real-time tensile stresses of all the lower chords are analyzed through multiple linear regression to obtain the relationship formula between the tilt angle and the chord length. All the maximum values of the solar radiation distribution in the preset area and the minimum covering circle of all the maximum values are obtained. A length interval from zero to the radius length is defined based on the radius length of the minimum covering circle.

The optimal tilt angle is substituted into the relationship formula between the tilt angle and the chord length to obtain the optimal service length of the upper chord and the optimal service length of the lower chord. This embodiment utilizes the characteristic that the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel of the flexible photovoltaic support can be adjusted by retracting and releasing the upper and lower chords. By analyzing the linear relationship between the lengths of the upper and lower chords of the flexible photovoltaic support and the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel, the relationship between the retracting and releasing length change behavior and the tilt angle change behavior is clarified, providing a quantitative basis for adjusting the tilt angle according to the solar radiation distribution in the future. Then, the solar high-radiation habitual area is defined based on the extreme value distribution in the solar radiation distribution. Finally, the tilt angle is adjusted according to the distance between the photovoltaic panel and the center of the solar high-radiation habitual area, realizing that the farther the photovoltaic panel is from the radiation center, the larger the tilt angle, so that the panel of the photovoltaic panel can face the radiation center with a larger area, thereby improving the light receiving efficiency.
