Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of photovoltaic heating, and in particular to a multi-circuit variable voltage cogeneration system and a control method. Background Art
[0002] The affordable price of photovoltaic panels makes them potentially suitable for widespread deployment and application. Combining off-grid solar photovoltaic systems with resistive heating terminals can reliably address the heating needs of distributed buildings in extremely cold regions. However, off-grid solar power systems are subject to local meteorological conditions, resulting in fluctuating and random power generation. When used with resistive heating terminals, the random voltage fluctuations, without utility power, can easily cause variations in the heating temperature of the resistive heating terminals. When solar power is abundant and power generation capacity is high, the resistive terminal operates at a high voltage and generates a high temperature. When solar power weakens and power generation capacity decreases, the voltage and temperature decrease. Due to the varying quality of thermal energy, when the temperature is below or close to the indoor ambient temperature, the thermal energy quality decreases significantly, rendering indoor heating ineffective (here, the heat generated when the resistive terminal temperature is below a certain indoor temperature setpoint is considered low-quality heat).
[0003] To address the issue of thermal energy quality variations caused by temperature fluctuations at the terminals in heating systems combining off-grid solar photovoltaic power generation systems with resistive terminals, this application proposes a multi-circuit, variable-voltage cogeneration system and control method. This system utilizes a multi-circuit solution to elevate the surface temperature of the resistive heating terminals when the off-grid solar photovoltaic power generation system is operating at low power generation capacity, maximizing the output of high-quality thermal energy. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present application provides a multi-circuit variable voltage cogeneration system and control method. By considering that the photovoltaic array in the cogeneration system will change the output voltage due to the influence of solar radiation intensity, a reasonable heating terminal circuit control strategy is formulated to improve the thermal energy quality of the resistive heating terminal.

Figure 2 Schematic diagram of a multi-circuit variable voltage cogeneration system provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0048] Figure 2 In the example, the combined heat and power system includes an off-grid photovoltaic power generation system, a heating terminal, and a household power terminal. The control device is the system control cabinet in the off-grid photovoltaic power generation system. The off-grid photovoltaic power generation system includes: a photovoltaic array 1, a system control cabinet 2, an irradiator 3, a temperature recorder 4, and a battery 5. The system control cabinet 2 is connected to the photovoltaic array 1, the irradiator 3, the temperature recorder 4, and the battery 5 respectively. The heating terminal includes a terminal control switch 6 and a resistive heating terminal 7. The system control cabinet 2 is also connected to the household AC power terminal 9 and the external power grid 10 via an inverter control box 8. In some cases, the external power grid 10 can be a mains power grid.
[0049] Specifically, the photovoltaic array 1 consists of m groups of photovoltaic panels of the same specifications and number, with each group containing n photovoltaic panels. The photovoltaic panels within each group are connected in series, and the m groups of photovoltaic panels are connected in parallel. The system control cabinet 2 includes functions such as current confluence, maximum power point tracking, and data acquisition and analysis. The confluence device within the system control cabinet 2 integrates the power input from the photovoltaic array 1 and outputs the system operating voltage through maximum power point tracking technology. System control cabinet 2 converts the power signal , the solar radiation intensity of the inclined surface collected hourly by irradiator 3 , Indoor temperature monitored by temperature recorder 4 and resistive heating terminal temperature Signal, battery 5 power signal Collect data and control the system according to the working strategy.
[0050] The heating terminal is composed of a terminal control switch 6 and a resistive heating terminal 7; other power terminals are composed of an inverter control box 8, a domestic AC power terminal 9, and a mains power grid 10.
[0051] Specifically, the resistive heating terminal 7 is internally composed of x heating circuits, and each circuit has y resistive heating modules. The terminal control switch 6 controls the on and off of the heating circuits in the resistive heating terminal 7 by receiving signals from the system control cabinet 2. That is, during the heating period, the system control cabinet 2 commands the terminal control switch 6 to control the number of heating circuits started according to the system signal. During the daytime, when photovoltaic power generation is used for heating, the heating terminal 7 has no mains power to supplement it, and relies 100% on solar power generation for DC heating. At this time, its working voltage changes with the fluctuation of power generation capacity. In the non-heating season or when heating is not required, the system control cabinet 2 switches the circuit according to the system signal and supplies power to the domestic AC power terminal 9 through the inverter control box 8; when the photovoltaic power supply system is damaged or under maintenance, the mains power grid 10 can supply power to the domestic AC power terminal 9 through the inverter control box 8. Specifically, the inverter control box 8 includes functions such as inverting the DC input into AC and merging it with the mains power, and counting power.
[0052] The control method of the heat and power combined supply system with multiple circuits and variable voltage operation can be applied to the system control cabinet 2. The steps of the method may include:
[0053] S1. Collect system operating data of the combined heat and power system.
[0054] The system operation data of the combined heat and power system may include the output voltage of the photovoltaic array 1 , indoor temperature , Resistive heating terminal temperature , solar radiation intensity on the inclined surface of photovoltaic panels and battery charge signal The resistive heating terminal 7 is a heating device in a combined heat and power system that converts electrical energy directly into thermal energy. Its core principle is to generate Joule heat by passing current through a resistive material to achieve heating.
[0055] When the combined heat and power system is built, the following parameters are entered into the system by default and are known parameters: Rated output voltage of PV array 1 额 (V); the total number of circuits x in the resistive heating terminal 7, the number of resistive heating modules y in each circuit; the resistance R (Ω) of a single heating module; the resistance of photovoltaic panels and other components in the combined heat and power system (Ω); Thermal efficiency of resistive heating terminal 7 ; Resistive heating terminal 7 laying area (m 2 ); thickness δ (m) from the resistive heating terminal 7 to the indoor wall; thermal conductivity λ (W / (m·K)) from the resistive heating terminal 7 to the indoor wall; indoor set temperature or indoor heating temperature T set (℃); photovoltaic panel installation area (m 2 ); Photovoltaic power generation efficiency ; The upper limit temperature of room temperature is T set (℃).
[0056] S2. Establish a first relationship model between the system operating voltage and the resistive heating terminal temperature based on the system operating data, and establish a second relationship model between the inclined surface solar radiation intensity and the resistive heating terminal temperature based on the first relationship model.
[0057] For example, the first relationship model includes:
[0058]
[0059] in, is the system operating voltage, is the end temperature of resistive heating, is the air temperature outside the resistive heating terminal 7, that is, the indoor temperature, is the thermal conductivity of the resistive heating terminal 7 to the indoor wall, The thickness from the resistive heating terminal 7 to the indoor wall, is the surface heat transfer coefficient of the resistive heating terminal 7, is the resistance of a single heating module in a resistive heating terminal, and Respectively represent the total number of circuits in the resistive heating terminal 7 and the number of heating modules in each circuit, The area of the resistive heating terminal is 7, is the resistance of the photovoltaic array 1 and other components in the combined heat and power system, is the number of heating circuits running in the 7 resistance heating terminals, It is the thermal efficiency of the resistive heating terminal 7.
[0060] For example, the method of establishing a first relationship model between the system operating voltage and the resistive heating terminal temperature based on the system operating data includes: obtaining the current terminal heating power according to the collected data and the known component information of the system, and combining the terminal heat transfer mechanism to derive the relationship between the system operating voltage and the resistive heating terminal temperature.
[0061] 1. Determine the heating power per unit area of resistive heating terminal ( ):
[0062] Resistive heating terminals typically refer to heating devices that generate heat by passing current through a resistor, such as resistance wire heaters, electric heating films, and electric blankets. Ignoring the effect of temperature on resistance in the circuit, resistive terminals obey Ohm's and Joule's laws. Therefore, the electrical power and heating value can be calculated based on the voltage and current across the terminal.
[0063] The number of heating circuits in operation in the resistive heating terminal 7 is z ( ). When z heating circuits are running, the voltage at the end of the resistive heating circuit is: ; The current is ; Heating power is: When z heating circuits are running, the heating power per unit area of the resistive heating terminal is: , where The installation area of the resistive heating terminal is in m 2 ; It is the heat conversion efficiency of the resistive heating terminal.
[0064] 2. Determine the heat transfer capacity of the resistive heating terminal ( ) and temperature ( ) is:
[0065] When a resistive heating terminal is installed in a room for heating, the heat transfer of the heating terminal is closely related to the building envelope parameters, ventilation conditions, indoor and outdoor temperatures, etc. The heat transfer from the heating terminal to the room includes heat conduction, heat convection, and heat radiation (negligible). The heat transfer process is expressed as: Where, The heat exchange rate per square meter of the heating terminal, W / m 2 ; and are the resistance heating terminal temperature and the air temperature outside the resistance heating terminal 7 (considered as the indoor air temperature), °C; is the surface heat transfer coefficient W / (m 2K), surface heat transfer coefficient when indoor air flow changes slightly h Can be considered a constant and in the built system δ、 Parameters such as λ are fixed, then and( ) is proportional to.
[0066] 3. Determine the system operating voltage ( ) and the terminal temperature of resistive heating ( ) is:
[0067] Heating terminal heat exchange per unit area Heating power at the heating terminal If they are equal, we can get the first relational model: By simplifying the first relationship model, the system operating voltage can be obtained and the terminal temperature of resistive heating Functional relationship: , where k Represents the proportional coefficient and is a positive value. k The value is related to the system configuration and the size of the z value. From the formula, we can get: and( ) are positively correlated.
[0068] When the system operating voltage When the temperature of the resistive heating terminal 7 is low, The heat energy quality will also decrease accordingly. Once the end temperature of the resistive heating Close to room temperature Or lower than the indoor setting value , the resistive heating terminal 7 will not have the effect of heating.
[0069] Furthermore, the second relational model is:
[0070]
[0071] in, is the solar radiation intensity on the inclined surface, is the photovoltaic panel installation area, is the power generation efficiency of PV array 1 in the combined heat and power system, 额 is the rated output voltage of PV array 1, It is the solar radiation intensity value when the photovoltaic array 1 reaches the rated output voltage.
[0072] For example, since the power generation capacity of the photovoltaic power generation system will show randomness and fluctuation with the change of solar radiation intensity, the system working voltage output when the solar radiation intensity is weak Reduce the surface temperature of the resistive heating terminal 7 Therefore, the method of establishing the second relationship model between the solar radiation intensity of the inclined surface and the terminal temperature of the resistive heating based on the first relationship model may include:
[0073] 1. Solar radiation intensity on inclined surface ( E i ) and system operating voltage ( ) relationship:
[0074] First, the calculation formula for the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic array 1 is: , where is the area of photovoltaic panels, m 2 ; is the solar radiation intensity on the inclined surface of the photovoltaic panel, W / m 2 ; The photovoltaic power generation efficiency is related to the power generation characteristics of the photovoltaic panel itself, the temperature of the photovoltaic panel, the ambient temperature and humidity, and other factors. The value range is between 10% and 25%.
[0075] It should be noted that under strong solar radiation conditions, the photovoltaic modules reach the rated output voltage 额 When the output voltage no longer increases with the increase of light intensity, the solar radiation intensity value is set to , , so the relationship between the solar radiation intensity on the inclined surface and the photovoltaic output voltage can be obtained as follows:
[0076]
[0077] 2. Determine the system operating voltage ( ) and the terminal temperature of resistive heating ( ) relationship:
[0078] Solar radiation intensity E i With system operating voltage U 1,i Substitute the relationship into the system operating voltage U 1,i and the terminal temperature of resistive heating The solar radiation intensity on the inclined surface is obtained from the relationship E i and the terminal temperature of resistive heating Relationship:
[0079]
[0080] In the formula λ 、 δ 、h、 、 ,R,r0, η 0. The parameters are positive. Simplifying the above formula we can get:
[0081]
[0082] Where, ε 、 k is a constant.
[0083] S3. Determine a solar radiation intensity control point according to the second relationship model, and start a multi-loop control strategy when the real-time radiation intensity is lower than the solar radiation intensity control point.
[0084] The process of determining the solar radiation intensity control point according to the second relationship model includes:
[0085] The lowest effective value for setting the terminal temperature of resistance heating is According to the second relational model, the light intensity is When the resistive heating terminal predicts the working temperature and ε 、 、 Because ε, k are all positive values, Satisfaction at the moment , but the smaller the solar radiation intensity, and The closer they are, the less ideal the heating effect will be.
[0086] Set the indoor heating temperature to T set In order to ensure the heat exchange effect between the heating terminal and the room, It should be greater than a certain value of indoor heating temperature, that is:
[0087] T set
[0088] Among them, p is the temperature difference threshold parameter, which represents the minimum effective temperature difference between the terminal temperature of the resistive heating and the indoor set temperature. It can generally be set to 5~10°C to ensure effective terminal heating.
[0089] when T set The corresponding solar radiation intensity at this time is Defined as the solar radiation intensity control point E set (0 E set ),exist The multi-loop control strategy is started at this time.
[0090] Determine the solar radiation intensity control point E that meets the minimum effective value of the temperature based on the minimum effective value of the terminal temperature and the second relationship model set :
[0091]
[0092] Furthermore, the multi-loop control strategy may include:
[0093] The control function based on multi-objective constraints determines the number of circuit startups at the heating terminal, and dynamically adjusts the number of circuits at the heating terminal to maintain the temperature of the heating terminal above the set temperature threshold.
[0094] Specifically, the control logic of the multi-circuit voltage control strategy is: E set When , all the circuits at the heating terminal start to heat the room; E set When the multi-circuit voltage control strategy is activated, the terminal temperature is increased by changing the circuit. E set The reason why the heat energy quality of the resistive heating terminal 7 is improved is that when the solar radiation intensity is constant, reducing the number of operating circuits of the resistive heating terminal 7 will cause the voltage of the resistive heating terminal 7 to increase, thereby increasing the terminal temperature. At this time, the voltage of the resistive heating terminal always satisfies: 额 , E set The voltage at the end of the resistive heating is always lower than the system voltage under rated conditions. When, you know , expand and simplify to get: , the physical meaning of this inequality is expressed in E set At this time, the maximum power of photovoltaic power generation is always less than the electric power of the resistive heating terminal 7 under rated conditions.
[0095] The goal of the multi-circuit variable voltage control strategy is to increase the temperature of the resistive heating terminal 7, that is, to increase the ) The thermal energy quality of the terminal. On this basis, the larger the number of 7 circuits of the resistive heating terminal, the better the heat transfer effect. Considering the safety and comfort of the heating temperature, the maximum temperature constraint of the resistive heating terminal is ( ). Generally speaking, for °C. The multi-objective function can be expressed as:
[0096]
[0097] within a certain period of timeh 、 、 The equal value can be regarded as a fixed value. The user selects the weight of the resistance heating terminal temperature and the resistance heating terminal operation area according to the demand, and optimizes the calculation of the optimal number of circuits z ( , ).
[0098] Furthermore, in the method provided in the present application, when the real-time radiation intensity is higher than the solar radiation intensity control point, all circuits of the heating system are started, and the start and stop of the cogeneration system are controlled according to the indoor temperature. The step of controlling the start and stop of the cogeneration system according to the indoor temperature may include:
[0099] If the indoor temperature The upper limit temperature T of the heated object is greater than room temperature. set , then the combined heat and power system is controlled to stop running;
[0100] If the indoor temperature Less than the indoor set temperature T set , the combined heat and power system is started; if there is excess electricity, the battery of the combined heat and power system is charged based on the excess electricity. In the non-heating period, the electricity of the combined heat and power system is output to the end of life;
[0101] The storage battery of the cogeneration system is controlled to discharge when there is insufficient sunlight, and to switch to connection with the external power grid 10 for charging when the power level is lower than a power threshold.
[0102] For example, the solution provided in this application mainly involves two aspects: heating and power supply. The overall control logic is: photovoltaic power generation for heating during the heating period, excess electricity during the day is stored in battery 5, and battery 5 is used for heating at night; and during the non-heating period, the system only provides power for AC loads.
[0103] The control method can collect data hourly based on the system control cabinet 2, including the output voltage of the photovoltaic array 1 , solar radiation intensity on inclined surface , indoor air temperature , actual heating terminal temperature The room heating temperature is , the solar radiation intensity control point is E set After the system is put into trial operation, the terminal temperature of the resistive heating Calculated and measured values Compare and get the corrected ε, k value.
[0104] During the heating period:
[0105] When the heating system is fully operational, all circuits are activated and the room temperature control system starts and stops according to the room temperature setting. Greater than T set +M, the heating system stops running; when Less than T set The heating system starts when the power is on, and so circulates. In addition, at this moment, the illumination is sufficient, and the unnecessary electric energy is charged to the storage battery 5, and is fully stopped.
[0106] When the multi-circuit voltage control mode is started: according to the current 、 The optimal number of heating circuits z ( , ) value, the resistive heating terminal 7 starts z circuits for heating until the end of the time step.
[0107] At night, the battery 5 and the mains electricity can be used to supplement the power. If the battery 5 power is less than 10%, the mains electricity is used for heating; if the battery 5 power is not less than 10%, the remaining power of the battery 5 is used for heating until the battery 5 power is less than 10%, and the battery 5 heating switch is disconnected and the mains electricity is used.
