Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a photovoltaic panel parameter determination method, in particular to a photovoltaic panel irradiance coefficient and temperature coefficient determination method based on an open-circuit voltage model. BACKGROUND

[0002] As the core component of a solar power generation system, the power generation efficiency of a photovoltaic panel (a common name for a photovoltaic cell assembly) is directly subject to environmental factors, among which the influence of irradiance and working temperature, two key parameters, is the most critical. These two parameters are crucial for the design, power generation prediction, performance evaluation, and fault diagnosis of a solar power generation system.

[0003] In the prior art, the determination of the irradiance and working temperature of a photovoltaic panel has the following defects: the acquisition of the irradiance coefficient usually depends on natural weather changes, and it is necessary to wait for stable sunny days with different irradiance intensities, which is a long process and is limited by season and region; the determination of the temperature coefficient requires a laboratory temperature control box or waiting for natural temperature rise / drop of the environment, which is a long cycle and is difficult to completely match the actual working conditions on site. The independent testing method of these two coefficients not only consumes time and effort, is costly, but also easily introduces environmental fluctuation interference (such as irradiance transients and temperature drifts) due to the large time span of the test, which leads to poor data synchronization and difficulty in ensuring measurement accuracy, seriously restricting the efficiency and reliability of on-site evaluation of photovoltaic systems.

[0035] The present application provides a method for determining the irradiance coefficient and the temperature coefficient of a photovoltaic panel based on an open-circuit voltage model, comprising the following steps:

[0036] S1. Cleaning the photovoltaic panel to be tested;

[0037] S2. Arranging the photovoltaic panel at a set position;

[0040] S5. Constructing a model of the relationship between the open-circuit voltage of the photovoltaic panel and the temperature coefficient and the irradiance coefficient, and substituting the data in steps S3 and S4 into the model, and then using linear fitting software to obtain the irradiance coefficient and the temperature coefficient. The linear fitting software is, for example, Origin fitting software, etc. to obtain the irradiance coefficient and the temperature coefficient. Through the above method, the irradiance coefficient and the temperature coefficient of the photovoltaic panel can be quickly and accurately determined in an outdoor environment, which improves the accuracy of parameter determination, effectively avoids passive dependence on environmental factors, shortens the parameter determination process, and provides accurate and reliable data support for subsequent design of photovoltaic power generation system, power generation prediction, etc.

[0041] In this embodiment, in step S4, the model of the relationship between the open-circuit voltage of the photovoltaic panel and the temperature coefficient and the irradiance coefficient is specifically:

[0044] In this embodiment, in step S1, the surface cleaning of the photovoltaic panel to be tested specifically includes:

The deionized water can effectively remove stains on the surface of the photovoltaic panel, and can also avoid corrosion of the photovoltaic panel. In addition, one-way wiping can avoid secondary pollution to the surface of the photovoltaic panel.

[0046] In this embodiment, step S2 specifically includes:

[0053] The environmental humidity of the set position is between 40-60%, which can reduce the particle charge on the surface of the photovoltaic panel. When the humidity exceeds the set value, a particle blower is started to neutralize the charge on the surface of the photovoltaic panel.

[0058] The end voltage of the photovoltaic panel is sampled at 1 kHz to prevent 50 Hz power frequency interference.

[0059] In the embodiment, the AM1.5G neutral standard filters with different light transmittances are respectively vacuum-covered on the photovoltaic panel, specifically comprising:

[0060] The AM1.5G neutral standard filters with light transmittances of 75%, 50% and 25% are vacuum-covered on the photovoltaic panel in descending order of light transmittance, and after each AM1.5G neutral standard filter is removed, the next AM1.5G neutral standard filter is covered again after 5 minutes; the interval of 5 minutes can make the photovoltaic panel fully heat dissipation, and the descending order arrangement of the filters can effectively avoid the thermal shock damage to the photovoltaic panel caused by temperature fluctuation.

[0061] The air gap between the AM1.5G neutral standard filter and the photovoltaic panel is less than 0.1 mm.

[0062] In the embodiment, when the temperature of the photovoltaic panel is lower than 25℃, the deionized warm water with a set temperature is used to spray and heat the photovoltaic panel until the set intervention temperature, and when the ambient temperature is higher than 25℃, the deionized ice water is used to spray and cool the photovoltaic panel to the set intervention temperature, specifically comprising:

[0063] When the photovoltaic panel is heated, the set intervention temperature is the ambient temperature plus 15 degrees Celsius;

[0066] The distance between the spray nozzle and the photovoltaic panel is kept at 30cm;

[0067] After the photovoltaic panel is heated and cooled, the non-woven fabric is used for one-way wiping to make the area of the residual water film ≤5% of the photovoltaic panel surface area.

[0068] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limiting. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the purpose and scope of the present application, and they should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
