Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of inverters, in particular to a high-efficiency heat dissipation component of a string inverter. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing popularity of distributed energy, string inverters have become particularly important due to their advantages in multi-string parallel connection in photovoltaic power plants and distributed power generation systems. This type of inverter can convert the direct current generated by multiple photovoltaic modules or wind turbines into alternating current that can be connected to the power grid. However, under continuous operation and high load conditions, the power devices inside the inverter will generate a lot of heat. If the heat cannot be dissipated in a timely and effective manner, it will cause the device to overheat, affect the efficiency of the inverter, and even cause failure or reduce the service life. This problem is particularly prominent in high temperature environments or places with poor heat dissipation conditions.
[0003] The patent with publication number CN211183818U discloses a string inverter with both dustproof and excellent heat dissipation performance, including an inverter box, a string inverter element installed in the inverter box, a dustproof plate provided on the inner wall of the inverter box near the bottom, a U-shaped mounting plate provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the inverter box, three groups of symmetrically distributed high-speed silent fans provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the U-shaped mounting plate and near the edges on both sides, a plurality of air inlets arranged at equal intervals are provided at the bottom of the inverter box, and symmetrically distributed triangular air outlets are provided at the top of both sides of the inverter box. The string inverter with both dustproof and excellent heat dissipation performance can blow air into the inverter box to dissipate heat through a high-speed silent fan, accelerate the heat dissipation of the inverter element, and prevent dust from entering the inverter box through the dustproof plate.
[0004] The above-mentioned prior art realizes heat dissipation in the inverter box through a high-speed silent fan and uses a dustproof plate to block dust. However, in harsh outdoor environments with a lot of dust, the limitations of this design become obvious. The fan is easy to be damaged, which affects the heat dissipation efficiency; the dustproof plate and the filter plate are easy to be blocked, which not only reduces the operating stability of the system, but also increases the maintenance cost. Fan damage and reduced dustproof performance will cause the temperature inside the box to rise, thereby accelerating the aging process of electronic components, seriously affecting the overall performance and service life of the string inverter. In view of this, we propose an efficient heat dissipation component for the string inverter. Utility Model Content
