Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic power generation technology, specifically to a method for optimizing the number of photovoltaic modules, electronic equipment, dielectric materials, and program products. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic modules are the core component of photovoltaic power plants. The main function of photovoltaic modules is to generate direct current (DC) using solar energy. Through connection with the DC side of an inverter, the inverter converts the DC power into alternating current (AC) power, thereby providing electricity.

[0003] Calculating the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series and in parallel is one of the fundamental tasks in photovoltaic power plant design. This step has a significant impact on the overall layout of the photovoltaic power plant, the design of the supporting system, and the selection of the capacity ratio. In order to ensure that the photovoltaic power plant takes into account both economy and safety, it is necessary to reasonably determine the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series and in parallel on the DC side of the inverter.

[0004] Currently, when calculating the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series in a photovoltaic power plant, in order to ensure the safe operation of the photovoltaic power plant, the calculation is usually based on various parameters of the photovoltaic string under extreme temperature conditions, for example, in the following way:

[0005]

[0006] Where N is the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series in the photovoltaic string, and V mpptmax V is the maximum voltage at the inverter's maximum power point. mpptmin V is the minimum voltage at the inverter's maximum power point. pm K is the operating voltage of the photovoltaic module, t is the extreme low temperature value under the operating conditions of the photovoltaic module, t′ is the extreme high temperature value under the operating conditions of the photovoltaic module, and K′ is the maximum operating voltage of the photovoltaic module. v相对 This represents the relative temperature coefficient of the operating voltage of a photovoltaic module.

[0007] However, this method typically uses the operating voltage of the photovoltaic modules provided by the manufacturer for calculation. Since the parameters of photovoltaic modules can change when affected by the environment, the operating voltage of the photovoltaic modules provided by the manufacturer is only applicable to standard environments and is not accurate in actual environments.

[0055] In the prior art, the calculation of the range of the number of photovoltaic modules in series in a photovoltaic string does not take into account the correction of relevant parameters.

The number here is not limited to the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series in a photovoltaic string, but also includes the number of photovoltaic strings connected in parallel.

[0063] In one optional implementation, the irradiance at the location corresponding to the photovoltaic module includes, but is not limited to: the maximum irradiance within a preset time period, the average irradiance within a preset time period, the median irradiance within a preset time period, and the real-time irradiance.

These correction coefficients can be obtained based on historical experimental data, which may include the correspondence between the operating voltage and the variables in the above formula.

[0071] In an optional implementation, the formula for calculating the open-circuit voltage correction value of the photovoltaic module based on the standard values ​​of the photovoltaic module's operating temperature, irradiance, and open-circuit voltage, as well as the operating temperature and irradiance, is as follows:

[0072]

[0073] Among them, V oc V is the open-circuit voltage correction value. oc,STC Here, T represents the standard open-circuit voltage, and T represents the operating temperature. STC G represents the standard operating temperature, and G represents the irradiance. STC β4, β5, and β6 are the standard values ​​for irradiance. The correction coefficients can be obtained based on historical experimental data, which may include the correspondence between open-circuit voltage and the variables in the above formula.

[0074] In an optional implementation, the formula for calculating the open-circuit voltage correction value of the photovoltaic module based on the standard values ​​of the photovoltaic module's operating temperature, irradiance, and open-circuit voltage, as well as the operating temperature and irradiance, is as follows:

[0075]

[0076] Among them, V oc V is the open-circuit voltage correction value. oc,STC Here, T represents the standard open-circuit voltage, and T represents the operating temperature. STC G represents the standard operating temperature, and G represents the irradiance. STC Here, a1, a2, a3, and a4 are the standard values ​​for irradiance, and a4, a2, a3, and a4 are correction factors. These correction factors can be obtained based on historical experimental data, which may include the correspondence between open-circuit voltage and the variables in the above formula.

[0077] In an optional implementation, the first range of the number of photovoltaic modules in series in step S2 is determined as follows:

[0078]

[0079] Where N is the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series in the photovoltaic string, and V mpptmax V is the maximum voltage at the inverter's maximum power point. mpptmin V is the minimum voltage at the inverter's maximum power point. pm K' represents the corrected operating voltage value for the photovoltaic module, t represents the extreme low temperature value under the operating conditions of the photovoltaic module, t′ represents the extreme high temperature value under the operating conditions of the photovoltaic module, and K′ represents the extreme low temperature value under the operating conditions of the photovoltaic module. v相对 T is the relative temperature coefficient of the operating voltage of a photovoltaic module. STC This is the standard operating temperature value. Preferably, T... STC =25℃.

[0080] In an optional implementation, the second series quantity range in step S3 is determined as follows:

[0081]

[0082] Where N is the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series, and V dcmax V is the maximum input voltage of the inverter. oc Here, K represents the open-circuit voltage correction value, t represents the extreme low temperature value under the operating conditions of the photovoltaic module, and K represents the low temperature value. v相对 T is the relative temperature coefficient of open-circuit voltage.

[0083] In an optional implementation, step S4 is followed by:

[0084] S5. Determine the range of the number of photovoltaic strings to be connected in parallel based on the current value of the photovoltaic strings and the maximum input current of the inverter. The inverter is used to electrically connect to the photovoltaic strings.

[0085] The specific calculation method is as follows: the product of the number of photovoltaic strings connected in parallel and the current value of the photovoltaic strings should not be greater than the maximum input current of the inverter.

[0086] S6. Optimize the number of photovoltaic strings in parallel based on the range of the number of photovoltaic strings in parallel.

[0087] In one optional implementation, step S6 includes, but is not limited to, the following methods:

[0088] During the construction phase of a photovoltaic power station, if the number of photovoltaic strings connected in parallel can be dynamically adjusted, a higher number of parallel strings can be selected within the range of parallel strings to construct the photovoltaic power station, so that after the photovoltaic power station is completed, it can be dynamically adjusted within a larger range.

[0089] During the construction phase of a photovoltaic power plant, if the number of photovoltaic strings connected in parallel can be dynamically adjusted, the irradiance can be obtained in real time, the range of the number of parallel strings can be calculated, and the maximum value within the range can be selected as the number of photovoltaic strings connected in parallel, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic power plant.

[0090] In an optional implementation, Figure 2 This is a photovoltaic module quantity adjustment circuit. The number of photovoltaic modules connected in series in a photovoltaic power station can be dynamically adjusted by the quantity adjustment circuit. In addition, the number of photovoltaic modules connected in parallel can also be adjusted by the quantity adjustment circuit. Those skilled in the art can also make adaptive settings according to practice.

[0091] In the quantity adjustment circuit, each photovoltaic module is connected in parallel with a short-circuit switch. When it is necessary to reduce the number of photovoltaic modules in series, the corresponding number of short-circuit switches are closed. When it is necessary to increase the number of photovoltaic modules in series, the corresponding number of short-circuit switches are opened.

[0092] Furthermore, in the quantity adjustment circuit, each photovoltaic string is electrically connected to the inverter through a selection switch. When it is necessary to reduce the number of photovoltaic strings in parallel, the corresponding number of short-circuit switches are opened; when it is necessary to increase the number of photovoltaic strings in parallel, the corresponding number of short-circuit switches are closed.

[0093] In an optional implementation, refer to Figure 3 A flowchart of step S1 is provided, wherein step S1 specifically includes:

[0094] S13. Obtain the ambient temperature, humidity and wind speed of the photovoltaic module.

[0095] S14. Based on the standard value of irradiance of photovoltaic modules, ambient temperature, ambient humidity, wind speed and irradiance acquisition operating temperature.

[0096] S15. Obtain the working voltage correction value and open circuit voltage correction value of the photovoltaic module based on the working temperature.

[0097] In one alternative implementation, ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed can be acquired either through sensors or through meteorological information related to these parameters, such as networks. Specifically:

[0098] The acquisition of ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed through sensors includes, but is not limited to, the following: acquiring the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed at the location of the photovoltaic modules before the photovoltaic power station is built, specifically acquiring the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed at the planned installation location of the photovoltaic modules, or acquiring the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed at the planned location of the photovoltaic power station; acquiring the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed at the location of the photovoltaic modules after the photovoltaic power station is built, specifically acquiring the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed at the actual location of the photovoltaic modules, or acquiring the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed of the photovoltaic power station where the photovoltaic modules are located.

[0099] Meteorological information is used to obtain ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed, including but not limited to the following: obtaining the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed of the area where the photovoltaic power station is located before its construction; obtaining the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed of the area where the photovoltaic power station is located after its construction.

[0100] By obtaining the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed before the photovoltaic power station is built, the number of photovoltaic modules can be optimized based on this method. This optimized quantity allows for a more optimized layout design of the photovoltaic modules within the power station. Similarly, by obtaining the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed after the photovoltaic power station is built, the number of photovoltaic modules can be optimized based on this method, allowing for dynamic adjustments to the layout of the photovoltaic modules within the power station. The quantity here is not limited to the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series within a photovoltaic string, but also includes the number of photovoltaic strings connected in parallel.

[0101] In one optional implementation, the ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed at the location of the photovoltaic module include, but are not limited to: the maximum ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed within a preset time period; the average ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed within a preset time period; the median ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed within a preset time period; and the real-time ambient temperature, humidity, and wind speed.

[0102] In an optional implementation, the calculation formula for obtaining the operating temperature based on the standard value of irradiance of the photovoltaic module, ambient temperature, ambient humidity, wind speed, and irradiance is as follows:

[0103]

[0104] Where T is the operating temperature, T amb For ambient temperature, G represents ambient humidity, and G represents irradiance. STC V is the standard value for irradiance. w Let x be the wind speed, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, and h be correction coefficients, and x be a correction constant. Preferably, x = 273.15 and h = 1 / 3.

[0105] The following is an example of applying this method: If the operating voltage V of the photovoltaic module pm The relative temperature coefficient K′ of the operating voltage of the photovoltaic module is 29.2V. v相对 The value is -0.43% / ℃, and the standard operating temperature T is... STC The extreme low temperature t under photovoltaic module operating conditions is -30℃, and the extreme high temperature t′ under photovoltaic module operating conditions is 65℃; the maximum voltage V at the maximum power point of the inverter. mpptmax The minimum voltage V at the maximum power point of the inverter is 850V. mpptmin It is 420V.

[0106] In the existing technology, without correcting the operating voltage, the range of the first series connection quantity can be obtained based on the above parameters:

[0107]

[0108] If the open-circuit voltage V of the photovoltaic module oc The voltage is 36.7V, the absolute temperature coefficient of the open-circuit voltage of the photovoltaic module is -0.123V / ℃, and the relative temperature coefficient of the open-circuit voltage of the photovoltaic module is -0.45% / ℃; the maximum input voltage of the inverter is 1000V.

[0109] In the existing technology, without correcting the open-circuit voltage, the range of the second series quantity can be obtained based on the above parameters:

[0110]

[0111] By using the first series quantity range and the second series quantity range, when configuring the number of photovoltaic modules in a photovoltaic power station, any number can be selected from the intersection of the first series quantity range and the second series quantity range, i.e., 17.37≤N≤21.84.

[0112] In practice, sensors cannot directly obtain the operating temperature of photovoltaic modules; what they usually obtain is the ambient temperature of the photovoltaic modules.

[0113] If the obtained irradiance G is 600 W / m2 Ambient temperature T amb The temperature is 18℃ and the ambient humidity is [missing information]. 80%, wind speed V w Given a velocity of 4 m / s, a = 3.941, b = 281.7, c = 0.01088, d = 269.1, e = 0.0056, f = -0.1761, g = 275.9, x = 273.15, and h = 1 / 3, the operating temperature T can be obtained as:

[0114]

[0115] Based on T = 27.54℃, if β1 = -0.488, β2 = -0.001, and β3 = 2.47568, the working voltage correction value can be obtained as follows:

[0116]

[0117] (The result is approximately two decimal places) or,

[0118] If b1 = -0.009, b2 = 1.9, b3 = -0.0764, and b4 = 0.0362, the working voltage correction value can be obtained:

[0119]

[0120] (The result is approximately two decimal places)

[0121] Based on T = 27.54℃, if β4 = -0.498, β5 = -0.001, and β6 = 2.368, the open-circuit voltage correction value can be obtained as follows:

[0122]

[0123] or,

[0124] If a1 = -0.01, a2 = 1.9, a3 = -0.09, and a4 = 0.04, the open-circuit voltage correction value can be obtained:

[0125]

[0126] (The result is approximately two decimal places)

[0127] Based on the working voltage correction value V pm =27.81 (28.06 can also be used, depending on practical needs), which can be used to calculate the range of the first series connection quantity:

[0128]

[0129] Therefore, based on the obtained working voltage correction value, compared with the first series number range calculated in the prior art, the calculation result is corrected from 17.37≤N≤23.54 to 18.23≤N≤24.72.

[0130] Based on the corrected open-circuit voltage V oc =35.31 (34.61 can also be used, depending on the actual situation), which gives the range of the second series quantity:

[0131]

[0132] Therefore, based on the obtained open-circuit voltage correction value, compared with the second series quantity range calculated in the prior art, the calculation result is corrected from N≤21.84 to N≤22.71. Furthermore, combined with the corrected first series quantity range of 18.23≤N≤24.72, the ideal value range of N can be determined as: 18.23≤N≤22.71, which is more accurate than the value range of 17.37≤N≤21.84 determined in the prior art.

[0133] By using the aforementioned range of series connection numbers, when dynamically adjusting the number of photovoltaic modules in a photovoltaic power station, the number of photovoltaic modules connected in series in a photovoltaic string can be increased to 22. This can improve the voltage after series connection, reduce DC line loss, and thus improve the efficiency and capacity ratio of the photovoltaic power generation system. Furthermore, since the inverter needs to reach a certain input voltage and power level to start up, if the voltage of the photovoltaic string is higher, the inverter can start up earlier even when the sunlight is weak in the morning. Similarly, when the sunlight gradually weakens in the evening, the higher voltage allows the inverter to delay its shutdown time, thereby increasing the inverter's operating time and improving the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic power station.

[0134] This disclosure embodiment considers the actual situation of the photovoltaic module and calculates the operating temperature. Based on the operating temperature, the operating voltage and open-circuit voltage of the photovoltaic module can be further corrected, resulting in operating voltage correction values ​​and open-circuit voltage correction values ​​that are closer to the actual state of the photovoltaic module.
