Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of construction engineering, in particular to a modular photovoltaic glass curtain wall system with a cooling structure. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the photovoltaic industry, more and more construction projects choose to add photovoltaic components to the facade curtain wall. Photovoltaic power generation can not only solve its own power consumption problem, but even achieve "surplus power storage", effectively achieving low-carbon environmental protection. The modular curtain wall has the highest degree of industrialization among all curtain wall categories. The professional contracting unit of building curtain walls can reasonably arrange the customized production of panels according to the on-site construction progress, and complete diversified building curtain walls at a relatively low cost.

[0003] In the current application scenarios of solar photovoltaic buildings, i.e., building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), the combination of photovoltaic components and the facade curtain wall has relatively little impact on the building effect. Considering the indoor effect, the photovoltaic panels are more inclined to be used in the interlayer position. However, there is a problem of heat generation in the closed interlayer of the modular photovoltaic glass curtain wall. Once the temperature is too high, not only will the photovoltaic efficiency decrease, but there may also be safety problems. From the perspective of the power source, the cooling measures for photovoltaic panels can be divided into active cooling and passive cooling. Active cooling uses pumps or fans to circulate the heat transfer fluid through the photovoltaic panels, and the cooling efficiency is relatively high, but the cost itself is relatively high; passive cooling relies on three heat transfer mechanisms: natural convection, heat conduction, and radiation, and its maintenance cost is relatively low. However, how to design a passive cooling structure for easy installation and maintenance is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently at present. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a modular photovoltaic glass curtain wall system with a cooling structure, which is different from natural ventilation or mechanical exhaust. On the premise of ensuring the facade effect, it well solves the problem of overheating of the modular photovoltaic glass curtain wall panels and is convenient for installation and maintenance.

[0005] To achieve the above object, an embodiment of the utility model provides a modular photovoltaic glass curtain wall system with a cooling structure, including a curtain wall column, a curtain wall cross beam, and a photovoltaic unit. The photovoltaic unit includes photovoltaic glass; the system further includes: a buckle plate fixed on the curtain wall column and the curtain wall cross beam; a cooling structure fixed on the buckle plate and arranged side by side with the photovoltaic unit to cool the photovoltaic glass.

[0006] In some embodiments, the cooling structure includes: a temperature control box fixed on the buckle plate and arranged side by side with the photovoltaic unit; a phase change material filled in the temperature control box for cooling the photovoltaic glass.

[0007] In the above technical solution, by adding a buckle fixed on the curtain wall column and the curtain wall cross beam, and a cooling structure fixed on the buckle and arranged side by side with the photovoltaic unit, the photovoltaic glass can be cooled, and the overheating problem of the prefabricated photovoltaic glass curtain wall with a cooling structure is well solved. Different from natural ventilation or mechanical exhaust, on the premise of ensuring the facade effect, the overheating problem of the prefabricated photovoltaic glass curtain wall panel is well solved, and it is convenient for installation and maintenance.

Specifically, the cooling structure 14 cools the photovoltaic glass 191 by a passive cooling method.

[0018] In this embodiment, the buckle plate 13 is an aluminum alloy buckle plate and is fixed on the curtain wall column 11 and the curtain wall cross - beam 12 by screws 131, as Figure 4 shown.

[0019] In this embodiment, the cooling structure 14 is fixed on the buckle plate 13 by a plug - in method.

[0020] In this embodiment, the cooling structure 14 includes: a temperature - regulating box 141 and a phase - change material 142; the temperature - regulating box 141 is fixed on the buckle plate 13 and is arranged side by side with the photovoltaic unit 19; the phase - change material 142 is filled in the temperature - regulating box 141 and is used to cool the photovoltaic glass 191. Specifically, the phase - change material 142 cools the photovoltaic glass 191 by a passive cooling method. Specifically, the phase - change material 142 does not fill the temperature - regulating box 141 completely, so as to allow the temperature - regulating box 141 to accommodate the volume change of the phase - change material 142 after heat absorption and avoid deformation of the temperature - regulating box 141.

[0021] Continuing with the above - mentioned embodiment, the temperature - regulating box 141 is an integrally - formed aluminum box and has an opening (not shown), and the phase - change material 142 can be injected into the temperature - regulating box 141 through the opening. Specifically, the integrally - formed aluminum box can be drilled at the installation construction site to inject the phase - change material.

[0022] Continuing with the above - mentioned embodiment, the opening is located at the top of the temperature - regulating box 141, and there is a gap 140 between the injection height of the phase - change material 142 and the top of the temperature - regulating box 141. Specifically, the height H1 of the gap 140 is greater than or equal to 3 cm, as Figure 5 shown.

[0023] In some embodiments, the phase change material 142 is liquid paraffin. That is, a waxy (Paraffin Wax) phase change material is used, such as liquid Paraffin C19.

[0024] In this embodiment, the curtain wall cross beam 12 is arranged at the interlayer position, and the extending direction of the curtain wall cross beam 12 is substantially perpendicular to the extending direction of the curtain wall column 11.

[0025] In this embodiment, the photovoltaic unit 19 is arranged at the interlayer position and a fixing unit is adopted to ensure the connection reliability of the photovoltaic glass 191; the joints between adjacent photovoltaic units 19 are sealed with a sealant 101, and the joints between the photovoltaic unit 19 and the adjacent conventional curtain wall unit 10 are sealed with the sealant 101. Specifically, the photovoltaic glass 191 is arranged near the outdoor side, and the cooling structure 14 is arranged behind. The glass of the conventional curtain wall unit 10 can be laminated insulating glass or photovoltaic glass. In other embodiments, the photovoltaic unit 19 can also be arranged on all the outer facades of the system to enhance the photovoltaic power generation capacity.

[0026] The following gives an installation example of the present utility model to further explain the gap of the component photovoltaic glass curtain wall system with a cooling structure. First, the interlayer is designed to fix the photovoltaic unit to ensure the connection reliability of the photovoltaic glass. During installation: first, nails are driven on the curtain wall columns and the curtain wall cross beams to fix the aluminum alloy buckle plates; then, holes are opened at the top of the integrally formed aluminum box (temperature control box), and after injecting liquid paraffin (phase change material), the aluminum box is fixed on the aluminum alloy buckle plate by plugging, and then fixed on the curtain wall columns and the curtain wall cross beams; finally, the photovoltaic glass of the photovoltaic unit is closely installed against the aluminum box, and the liquid Paraffin C19 in the aluminum box is used to cool the photovoltaic glass by passive cooling. Among them, at the installation construction site, micro-holes can be opened at the top of the integrally formed aluminum box before installing the aluminum box, and then liquid paraffin is injected; the injection height of the liquid paraffin is at least 3 cm away from the top of the aluminum box to facilitate the injection of the liquid paraffin and accommodate the volume change after the liquid paraffin absorbs heat, avoiding deformation of the aluminum box.
