Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of heat pump control systems. Specifically, it particularly relates to a heat pump direct current (DC) direct drive method and system based on dual-channel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and bidirectional energy storage. Background Art

[0002] Currently, there are mainly two types of technical routes for photovoltaic direct drive heat pump air conditioning systems:

[0003] For the first type of AC-coupled system, a photovoltaic inverter is used to convert solar DC power into 220V / 230V AC power, and then it is secondarily converted into DC power through an AC / DC rectification device inside the heat pump to drive the compressor. This architecture has significant energy losses: Experimental data shows that the double-stage energy conversion (DC-AC-DC) causes the overall system efficiency to decrease by 18%-25%, and the high-frequency harmonics generated in the inversion link will exacerbate the electromagnetic interference problem.

[0004] For the second type of DC direct connection system, although the DC-DC converter is used to directly match the heat pump bus voltage (usually 280 - 350V DC), it has the following technical defects:

[0005] Energy dynamic imbalance: It is difficult to match the photovoltaic output power and the heat pump load demand in real time. When the photovoltaic power generation exceeds the load demand, the excess energy is forced to discard light due to the lack of an energy storage link; when the irradiance suddenly drops, the system needs to urgently switch to the AC power grid for power supply, resulting in a risk of interruption of power supply continuity (the switching delay can reach more than 500ms).

[0006] Control islanding: The existing system does not establish a real-time communication link with the heat pump host, and cannot dynamically adjust the power supply strategy according to the operating conditions of the compressor. When the heat pump operates at part load, the case where the photovoltaic utilization rate is lower than 40% accounts for more than 60%. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Aiming at the problems in the related technologies, the present invention proposes a heat pump DC direct drive method and system based on dual-channel MPPT and bidirectional energy storage to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the existing related technologies.

[0008] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0009] The present invention provides a heat pump DC direct drive method based on dual-channel MPPT and bidirectional energy storage, including the following steps:

[0010] S1. Control the photovoltaic power generation system to capture and generate electricity through an integrated dual-channel independent MPPT controller;

[0011] S2. Obtain the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system and the heat pump load power, and compare the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system and the heat pump load power;

[0012] S3. When the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system is greater than the heat pump load power, the photovoltaic power generation system supplies power to the heat pump through the bidirectional DC-DC converter, and at the same time stores the excess electric energy in the energy storage module through the bidirectional DC-DC converter. When the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system is less than the heat pump load power, the photovoltaic power generation system and the energy storage module simultaneously supply power to the heat pump through the bidirectional DC-DC converter.

[0013] Further, it includes an integrated dual-channel independent MPPT controller, a photovoltaic power generation system, a bidirectional DC-DC converter, an energy storage module, and a heat pump;

[0014] The integrated dual-channel independent MPPT controller is used to control the photovoltaic power generation system to capture light and generate electricity;

[0015] The bidirectional DC-DC converter is used to deliver the electric energy of the photovoltaic power generation system to the energy storage module and the heat pump, and can also deliver the electric energy of the energy storage module to the heat pump;

[0016] The energy storage module is used to store the excess electric energy of the photovoltaic power generation system.

[0017] Further, the photovoltaic power generation system is connected to the heat pump through a 315V DC bus, and the bidirectional DC-DC converter is connected and installed on the 315V DC bus, and the bidirectional DC-DC converter is connected to the energy storage system through a 51.2V DC bus.

[0018] Further, the energy storage module is a lithium battery pack, and the bidirectional DC-DC converter establishes communication with the BMS of the lithium battery through CAN communication and charges the lithium battery using the SOC charging strategy.

[0019] Further, the bidirectional DC-DC converter is connected to the control system of the heat pump through CAN communication.

[0020] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. In the present invention, a dual-bus architecture of 315V DC on the photovoltaic side and 51.2V DC on the energy storage side is constructed, and bidirectional energy flow is realized through the bidirectional DC-DC converter. When the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system is greater than the heat pump load power, the photovoltaic power generation system supplies power to the heat pump through the bidirectional DC-DC converter, and at the same time stores the excess electric energy in the energy storage module through the bidirectional DC-DC converter. When the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system is less than the heat pump load power, the photovoltaic power generation system and the energy storage module simultaneously supply power to the heat pump through the bidirectional DC-DC converter; through the bidirectional flow and delivery of electric energy, the problem of energy dynamic imbalance in the existing photovoltaic direct-drive heat pump system can be effectively solved, the system stability and photovoltaic utilization rate can be improved, and at the same time, the dependence on the power grid can be reduced.

[0022] 2. In the present invention, the photovoltaic power generation system is controlled by integrating a dual-channel independent MPPT controller, which can improve the photovoltaic capture efficiency compared with a single-channel system, thereby enhancing the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic power generation system.

[0023] 3. In the present invention, a CAN communication protocol is established for data interaction with the heat pump control system to achieve millisecond-level coordinated control of the power supply strategy and the heat pump load, further improving the stability of the heat pump operation.

[0024] Of course, it is not necessary for any product implementing the present invention to achieve all the above-mentioned advantages simultaneously. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0034] S3. When the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system is greater than the heat pump load power, the photovoltaic power generation system supplies power to the heat pump through the bidirectional DC-DC converter, and at the same time stores the excess electric energy in the energy storage module through the bidirectional DC-DC converter. When the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system is less than the heat pump load power, the photovoltaic power generation system and the energy storage module supply power to the heat pump through the bidirectional DC-DC converter at the same time.

[0035] Among them, through the bidirectional flow and transmission of electric energy, the problem of energy dynamic imbalance in the existing photovoltaic direct-drive heat pump system can be effectively solved, the system stability and photovoltaic utilization rate can be improved, and at the same time, the dependence on the power grid can be reduced through the bidirectional flow and transmission of electric energy.

[0041] Specifically, the photovoltaic power generation system is connected to the heat pump through a 315V DC bus, and the bidirectional DC-DC converter is connected and installed on the 315V DC bus. The bidirectional DC-DC converter is connected to the energy storage system through a 51.2V DC bus; when the power generation power of the photovoltaic power generation system exceeds the heat pump demand, the excess electric energy is converted into 58.4Vdc by the bidirectional DC-DC converter and stored in the energy storage module.
