Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of photovoltaic performance prediction. More specifically, the present invention relates to a device and an implementation method for predicting the power generation performance of a photovoltaic power generation system. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of photovoltaic technology and the gradual decline of the cost of photovoltaic power generation, solar power generation has become the clean energy with the fastest growth rate. In recent years, the global photovoltaic installed capacity has maintained a stable upward trend. Since photovoltaic power stations are strongly correlated with meteorological factors, they have large fluctuations. In order to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the power system, it is crucial to accurately predict the output power and power generation of photovoltaic power stations.

[0003] At present, prediction models can be established through methods such as the above-mentioned multiple linear regression method, artificial neural network method, and support vector machine method to predict the output power of a photovoltaic power generation system. Photovoltaic power prediction can improve the utilization efficiency of solar photovoltaic power generation resources. The above prediction methods are all based on historical meteorological data of the same cycle and the same day type.

[0004] Currently, the influence of dust accumulation on solar panels is rarely considered in most prediction models. In many prediction models, since it is difficult to collect the on-site dust accumulation situation in a timely manner and match it with the meteorological data collected in real time, for the consideration of dust accumulation in the prediction method, the number of dust accumulation days and the cleaning time or rainfall are often combined to obtain a value as a training set through correction or other means for training the prediction model. The Chinese patent with the authorization announcement number CN113393046B discloses a photovoltaic power prediction method and its application device. After determining the rainfall from the current moment to the target prediction moment, the initial power prediction value of the photovoltaic power station at the target prediction moment, and the cleaning information of the cleaning robot at the current moment, it determines the dust accumulation duration of the photovoltaic power station at the target prediction moment and determines the dust accumulation rate of the photovoltaic power station based on the rainfall and the dust accumulation duration. Finally, it corrects the initial power prediction value based on the dust accumulation rate to obtain the final power prediction value of the photovoltaic power station at the target prediction moment. The Chinese patent with the authorization announcement number CN108880470B discloses a method for calculating the influence of dust accumulation on the output power and power generation of photovoltaic modules. According to the relationship between different environments and the dust accumulation rate, it establishes the relationship between the environment and the surface cleanliness of the module and proposes a model for calculating the dust accumulation loss of the module based on the step method; the above two methods are applicable to photovoltaic fields that are often in a natural dust accumulation situation, but in the case of large sand and dust amounts and complex sand and wind conditions, it is difficult to calculate the dust density on the panel area based on the rainfall time and cleaning time, and the above devices and methods cannot be used.

[0005] In summary, dust density is an important factor affecting photovoltaic performance. Since it is difficult to obtain the actual situation in real time, dust density is often used as an input layer parameter of the photovoltaic prediction model through indirect parameters such as the time the panel is not cleaned. It is involved in the photovoltaic performance prediction. In complex wind and sand conditions, this method is difficult to be accurate. Therefore, it is urgent to propose a photovoltaic power generation performance prediction device and implementation method. Summary of the invention

[0023] such as Figures 1 - 6As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a photovoltaic power generation performance prediction device, which is arranged in a photovoltaic power generation field and includes: a meteorological acquisition device 4 that records various meteorological data in the photovoltaic power generation field in real time; a dust accumulation degree acquisition module, which includes a dust accumulation degree measurement box 2. The dust accumulation degree measurement box 2 is a closed box body. A partition plate 21 is arranged inside the dust accumulation degree measurement box 2. The inclination angle of the partition plate 21 is equal to the support angle of the photovoltaic panels in the photovoltaic power generation field. A partition hole 210 is opened in the middle of the partition plate 21. The partition plate 21 divides the inside of the dust accumulation degree measurement box 2 into a first dark room 201 and a second dark room 202. A direct illumination light source 23 is installed in the first dark room 201. One side wall of the dust accumulation degree measurement box 2 in the second dark room 202 is an opening and closing structure 25; a same-condition glass plate 1, the inclination angle and orientation of the same-condition glass plate 1 are the same as those of other photovoltaic panels in the photovoltaic power generation field; a first silicon photovoltaic cell 24, which is fixed on one side of the partition plate 21 in the first dark room 201, and the first silicon photovoltaic cell 24 is located above the partition hole 210; a second silicon photovoltaic cell 11, which is fixed on the side of the same-condition glass plate 1 facing the ground; wherein, when the same-condition glass plate 1 is close to the partition plate in the second dark room 202, the second silicon photovoltaic cell 11 is aligned with the center of the partition hole 210, and the illumination range of the direct illumination light source 23 can cover both the first silicon photovoltaic cell 24 and the second silicon photovoltaic cell 11 at the same time.

[0024] In this technical solution, the meteorological acquisition device 4 is approximately equivalent to the combination of an anemometer, an atmospheric sensor, a dust sensor, and a solar radiation sensor in an existing photovoltaic power generation field. It collects data in real time and sends the data to an existing or specially made photovoltaic prediction system. The photovoltaic prediction system uses neural network calculation software, takes the data provided by the meteorological acquisition device 4 as a sample set, and trains a prediction model for short-term solar radiation. When making a prediction, the solar radiation intensity in the prediction period can be inferred only based on the period data provided in the meteorological report. The same-condition glass plate 1 has the same size, orientation, and stacking angle as the photovoltaic panels used. The same-condition glass plate 1 accumulates dust, gets rained on, and is cleaned together with other photovoltaic panels in the field. Each time a short-term photovoltaic performance prediction is carried out, the same-condition glass plate 1 is pushed into the dust accumulation degree measurement box 2 manually or mechanically to complete the detection of the dust accumulation density. Then, the efficiency of the photovoltaic panel can be corrected according to the dust accumulation density, and the power generation amount or power of the photovoltaic power generation is calculated using the corrected efficiency of the photovoltaic panel and the predicted solar radiation intensity. The dust accumulation degree measurement box 2 in this technical solution can be added to an existing photovoltaic power generation field, and the collected dust accumulation density is used for correcting the efficiency of the photovoltaic panel instead of being used as data in the sample set, solving the problem of data loss when the dust accumulation density is used as a neural network model due to the lack of continuous data on the dust accumulation density before.

[0025] In this technical solution, the direct illumination light source 23 is an LED surface light source or a xenon lamp source that is easily obtainable in the market. The first silicon photocell 24 and the second silicon photocell 11 are finished components that are easily obtainable in the market. Optionally, the first silicon photocell 24 and the second silicon photocell 11 can also be photoelectric induction sensors. The principle is that under the same illumination conditions, the first silicon photocell 24 receives the light that has not been scattered by the dust accumulation layer 13, while the second silicon photocell 11 receives the light that has been scattered by the dust accumulation layer 13. As the dust accumulation degree continuously increases, the voltage ratio generated by the two silicon photocells increases or decreases accordingly. Therefore, the dust accumulation density on the same-condition glass plate 1 at this time can be compared by the voltage ratio of the two silicon photocells. Before the dust accumulation degree measurement box 2 and the same-condition glass plate 1 are installed in the photovoltaic power station, since the dust accumulation components and particle sizes of each photovoltaic power station are different, and the performance of the silicon photocells also varies slightly, it is necessary to calibrate the first silicon photocell 24 and the second silicon photocell 11. The dust samples obtained from previous sampling are evenly spread on the surface of the same-condition glass plate 1 from low to high. At this time, the arrangement of the first silicon photocell 24 and the second silicon photocell 11 is the same as above. Through multiple groups of illumination experiments, the voltage ratio values of the two silicon photocells at each dust accumulation density are obtained, and a fitting curve of dust accumulation degree - voltage difference is fitted using a computer program. In the subsequent measurement process, this dust accumulation degree - voltage difference fitting curve is used as the basis for calculating the dust accumulation degree. The obtained dust accumulation degree data is used as a calculation parameter for calculating the efficiency of the dust-bearing photovoltaic panel.

[0026] In this technical solution, the size of the same-condition glass plate 1 is basically equivalent to that of a complete photovoltaic panel. Compared with the current conventional same-condition dust accumulation equipment, it can better simulate the dust accumulation effect. By using the silicon photocell to measure the dust accumulation density, the problem of untimely collection of dust accumulation density data is avoided. The data can be timely fed back and collected and can be involved in the prediction of photovoltaic performance. The collected dust accumulation density data can be used not only as calculation data for the efficiency of the photovoltaic panel, but also, after a certain period of collection and when the dust accumulation density data obtains sufficient data density, as meteorological parameters for the training sample set of the neural network model directly predicting the photovoltaic power generation and power generation.

[0027] In another technical solution, a six-degree-of-freedom device 22 is installed in the first darkroom, and the direct light source 23 is installed on the movable part of the six-degree-of-freedom device 22. There are at least five partition openings 210 on the partition plate 21, and each partition opening 210 corresponds to a first silicon photocell 24 and a second silicon photocell 11. In this technical solution, the same glass plate 1 under the same conditions is tested by a five-point sampling and averaging method. At this time, the position and angle of the light source need to be adjusted, and the direct light source 23 needs to be close to the first silicon photocell 24 and the second silicon photocell 11 to be illuminated. The six-degree-of-freedom device 22 is a manipulator or other device that can control the direct light source 23 to move in the X, Y, and Z axes and rotate in the XY, XZ, and YZ directions. Optionally, the six-degree-of-freedom device 22 is a Stewart structure composed of six actuators and universal joints at both ends. The six-degree-of-freedom device 22 controls the displacement and angle change of the direct light source 23.

[0028] In another technical solution, a linear drive device 10 is provided under the dust accumulation measuring box 2 and the same condition glass plate 1, and the linear drive device 10 includes a servo motor 101 and a sliding seat 102 connected thereto by transmission, and the same condition glass plate 1 is located outside the opening and closing structure 25, wherein the servo motor 101 enables the sliding seat 102 to drive the same condition glass plate 1 to move from the outside to the second darkroom 202 until it is close to the partition plate 21 through a matching screw rod. In this technical solution, in order to save manpower, a linear drive platform can be used to complete the transfer of the same condition glass plate 1, the servo motor 101 is connected to a rotating screw rod, and the sliding seat 102 is driven on the rotating screw rod and several guide structures. When the servo motor 101 drives the rotating screw rod to rotate, the sliding seat 102 drives the same condition glass plate 1 to complete linear motion. In order to avoid the linear drive device 10 being affected by wind and sand, such as Figure 1 As shown, the driving device base 100 adopts a semi-sealed structure with plates wrapped around all sides, and the top plate is provided with a through groove so that the sliding seat 102 can pass through the vertical plate structure fixed upward, and the sliding seat 102 is connected to the driving plate 103 on the upper side of the driving device base 100 through the vertical plate structure. Under the same conditions, a glass plate fixing box 12 can be set under the glass plate 1 to be installed on the driving plate 103.

[0029] In another technical solution, the inner wall and partition plate 21 of the dust accumulation measuring box 2 are painted with black light-absorbing paint. In this technical solution, in order to avoid scattering of the test light of the direct light source 23, the inner wall and partition plate 21 of the dust accumulation measuring box 2 are painted with black paint, and the inside of the glass plate fixing box 12 is also painted with black paint.

[0030] In another technical solution, the meteorological data collection device 4 includes a hygrometer, a barometer, a dust sensor, a wind speed sensor, and a thermometer. The meteorological data collected by the meteorological data collection device 4 includes parameters such as relative humidity, wind speed, PM2.5 concentration, PM10 concentration, temperature, air pressure, and solar radiation value.

[0031] In another technical solution, the photovoltaic power generation performance prediction device further includes: a dust accumulation degree test module 3, which is electrically connected to the first silicon photovoltaic cell 24 and the second silicon photovoltaic cell 11 and records the voltage ratio of the two under the same-source light illumination, and calculates the corresponding dust accumulation density on the same-condition glass plate 1 according to the voltage ratio; a short-term power generation prediction module 5, which includes a model training unit 51, an information receiving module 52, and a power generation prediction unit 53. The short-term power generation prediction module 5 is communicatively connected to the meteorological data collection device 4 and the dust accumulation degree test module 3, and can receive external meteorological forecast data. The model training unit 51 can store the data collected by the meteorological data collection device 4 periodically, and uses the meteorological data collected by the meteorological data collection device 4 as a training set through a neural network learning calculation software to obtain a solar radiation amount prediction model. The information receiving module 52 is used to obtain the meteorological forecast data for the prediction period and the current dust accumulation density data obtained by the dust accumulation degree test module 3. The short-term power generation prediction module 5 calculates the power generation for the prediction period according to the solar radiation amount prediction model, the meteorological data for the prediction period, and the dust accumulation density data in sequence.

[0032] In another technical solution, the implementation method of the photovoltaic power generation performance prediction device includes the following steps: S1. Calibrate the photovoltaic power generation performance prediction device: In the laboratory, manually dust the upper side of the same-condition glass plate 1 equipped with the second silicon photovoltaic cell 11 evenly from scratch. After dusting, attach the same-condition glass plate 1 to the lower side of the partition plate 21 equipped with the first silicon photovoltaic cell 24, and use a direct light source 23 to irradiate the first silicon photovoltaic cell 24 and the second silicon photovoltaic cell 11 simultaneously from the upper side of the partition plate 21, record the output voltage ratio of the two, and establish a fitting curve of the dust accumulation density and the voltage ratio in this device; specifically, in this technical solution, the dust used for manual dusting can be taken from the dust accumulated on the photovoltaic panels collected during the previous cleaning operations of this power plant. Before each test, the surface of the same-condition glass plate 1 needs to be cleaned, and manual uniform dusting is carried out step by step at a density of 1 g / ㎡ or less, and the voltage ratios generated by the first silicon photovoltaic cell 24 and the second silicon photovoltaic cell 11 at different dust accumulation densities are collected, and a dust accumulation density - voltage ratio fitting curve is drawn for all the data using a computer program.

[0034] S3. Establish a solar radiation prediction model: Use the historical meteorological data collected by the meteorological acquisition device 4 as the sample set data to construct a solar radiation prediction model. The solar radiation prediction model adopts a BP neural network including an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer; Specifically, in this technical solution, the solar radiation prediction model is built based on the BP neural network model. The BP neural network is a multi-layer feedforward network, and the three-layer neural network with a hidden layer is relatively commonly used. Research shows that any three-layer BP neural network can approximate any non-linear continuous function and can achieve any accuracy; The input layer of the BP neural network model includes multiple input neuron nodes. There are multiple hidden neuron nodes set on the hidden layer. Each input neuron node is respectively connected to each hidden neuron node; the hidden neuron nodes are all connected to the output layer. The relative humidity, wind speed, PM2.5 concentration, PM10 concentration, air temperature, air pressure, etc. are used as the input values of the input neuron nodes, and the output result is compared with the corresponding solar radiation amount. The BP neural network model is optimized according to the PSO algorithm to obtain the solar radiation prediction model; The six parameters of relative humidity, wind speed, PM2.5 concentration, PM10 concentration, air temperature, and air pressure can be used as influencing factors. The total number of parameter types is used as the number of neuron nodes m, and the solar radiation amount is used as the only output value, that is, the number of nodes in the output layer c = 1, and the number of nodes in the hidden layer c1 is , where a is a random constant between 1 and 10; Perform normalization processing on the sample set data, and its mathematical expression is: Among them, represents the sample data of the influencing factor, , are respectively the minimum and maximum values in the sample data, is the dimensionless processed influencing factor data; Initialize the mapping relationship between the population particles and the weights and thresholds of the BP neural network, including particle dimension, initial velocity, population size, learning factor, and inertia weight; Input the normalized input variables and output variables into the BP neural network model, calculate the fitness function value of the particles, and obtain the historical optimal fitness and global fitness of the particles. The fitness function value of the particles is the mean square error of the calculation result, and its function expression is: Among them, represents the predicted value of the i-th sample, is the true value of the i-th sample, and n is the total number of calculation results of the neural network; perform iterative calculation on the particle fitness, and update the historical optimal fitness and the global fitness according to the preset update conditions until the preset iteration end condition is met. Subsequently, update the weights and thresholds of the preset BP neural network model to obtain an optimized BP neural network model for calculating the current solar radiation amount.

[0035] S4.
