Example one
Hereinafter, for convenience's sake, the embodiment that is divided into 4 regions and adopts four groups of color sensitive sensors to position with Jing Chang describes.But, should be appreciated that and the invention is not restricted to this, but Jing Chang can be divided to any number of regions, and adopt the color sensitive sensor with respective number to position.
First, adopt the present invention to utilize multiband artificial light sources to carry out the System Implementation schematic diagram of heliostat location shown in Figure 1.This Jing Chang is the Jing Chang of tower type solar energy thermal power generation, receives tower 101 and is positioned at mirror field edge, receives tower top heat absorbing units 102 is installed.In mirror field, on ground, lay some heliostat unit 103, wherein heliostat unit can have two degree of freedom, can be rotated and rotate and pitch rotation, to can flexibly hot spot be reflexed to heat absorbing units 102.Heliostat unit can be existing common heliostat, can be also the heliostat assembly of realizing the various improvement of heliostat function.
Because the heliostat quantity of Jing Chang is huge, for the ease of carrying out scheduling and the management of heliostat unit, Jing Chang is divided into equal-sized A, B, C, tetra-regions of D, be shown as in the drawings 106a, 106b, 106c, 106d.In each edges of regions, the one different-waveband artificial light sources of (or claiming different colours) is set.This example is selected 3 kinds of wave band light sources of red, green, blue and this visible all band light source of white light, but is not limited to above-mentioned four kinds of colors.As shown in Figure 1, at 106a region division 104a red light source, 106b region division 104b green light source, 106c region division 104c blue-light source, 106d region division 104d white light source.Light source can be selected HID high-voltage gas discharging light, and monochromatic source can be selected the gas-discharge lamps such as krypton lamp, helium lamp, neon lamp, and the optical filter that also can install 3 kinds of colors of red, green, blue outside the light source that produces white light additional produces monochromatic light.As selection scheme, can use and can produce other monochromatic light sources such as orange, yellow, cyan, purple.In the present invention, preferably adopt pointolite shape, but light source form is not limited to this, also can adopts line source and other can conveniently detect the light source of light spot shape.105a, 105b, 105c, 105d are the color sensitive sensor array boards that is used for detecting hot spot color and light spot shape size in the present invention, it is corresponding 106a, 106b, 106c, tetra-regions of 106d respectively, and every color sensitive sensor array board only detects the hot spot that the heliostat unit from corresponding region reflects back.In fact, in order to improve correction efficiency, increase the quantity of each heliostat unit of simultaneously proofreading and correct, heliostat field can be divided into more region, as 6 regions, 8 regions, then the artificial light sources of 6 kinds or 8 kinds different colours is set, is receiving tower employing 6 or 8 color sensitive sensor array boards.
Wherein, the employing example that color sensitive sensor array board is sensing device, sensing device can be realized the sensor that detects facula position and band class information for other, or the combination of several sensors.Such as, sensing device comprises the sensor that detects facula position and the sensor that detects band class information.The sensor that detects facula position can adopt traditional spot detection array.Also it should be noted that, sensing device of the present invention can be only one, can be also a plurality of, if a plurality of words, the number of sensing device is identical with a region of dividing, and like this, each sensing device detects the region that the heliostat unit in corresponding fields reflects back.In addition, the number of sensing device also can be identical with a region of dividing, and each sensing device detects specifies the region that in field, heliostat unit reflects back.In this example, sensor setting, below reception tower, also can be arranged on other position, if be arranged on other position, the bracing or strutting arrangement of support column and so on need to be additionally set, and therefore, sensor setting is for cost-saving below reception tower.
For the ease of controlling, the heliostat in each region is carried out to two dimension numbering, as shown in Figure 2.For example, A (i, j) refers to that in mirror field, a-quadrant, i is capable, the heliostat unit of j row.When carrying out the location of heliostat unit, this heliostat unit, four sides of A (i, j), B (i, j), C (i, j) and D (i, j) positions operation simultaneously.
Introduce in detail the principle of work of heliostat location below.The location of heliostat unit is by utilizing multiband artificial light sources to obtain many groups location sample, then estimating to realize by sample parameter.
Utilize the schematic diagram of multiband artificial light sources acquisition heliostat location sample as shown in Figure 3.
As shown in Figure 3 a, intending to the heliostat unit A (i in a-quadrant, in situation about j) positioning, first by accurate GPS measurement mechanism, record coordinate, the 105a color sensitive sensor array board center point coordinate of 104a red light source, the nominal coordinate of heliostat unit A (i, j).Nominal coordinate herein refers to the coordinate figure of the heliostat installation marking in the design drawing of mirror field, and this coordinate figure can obtain by Query Design storehouse.The Control Server that is positioned at master-control room utilize these 3 groups of coordinate datas can calculate heliostat unit A (i, j) by the dot projection of 104a to the needed angle configurations in 105a color sensitive sensor array board center then control heliostat unit A (i, j) rotation to this angle.But, in practice, owing to having error in manufacture, installation, measuring process, so hot spot differs, be projected to surely the center of color sensitive sensor array board, hot spot handling procedure guiding heliostat unit that this just need to be by color sensitive sensor array board is the central point to color sensitive sensor array board by dot projection.After finding array board central point, record the now angle configurations of heliostat A (i, j)
Like this, the current angle configurations of 104a red light source coordinate, 105a color sensitive sensor array board center point coordinate, heliostat A (i, j) these 3 groups of parameters form one group of location sample of heliostat A (i, j), and are stored in the storage server in master-control room.Meanwhile, as shown in Figure 3 a, heliostat unit B (i, j) utilize 104b green light source and 105b color sensitive sensor array board to obtain one group of location sample, heliostat unit C (i, j) utilize 104c blue-light source and 105c color sensitive sensor array board to obtain one group of location sample, heliostat cells D (i, j) utilizes 104d white light source and 105d color sensitive sensor array board to obtain one group of location sample.
Four sides heliostat in four regions the heliostat in four regions and four groups of artificial light sourcess are matched again, but the corresponding relation of four regions and four groups of color sensitive sensor array boards remains unchanged after respectively obtaining one group of location sample.As shown in Figure 3 b, heliostat unit A (i, j) utilize 104b green light source and 105a color sensitive sensor array board to obtain one group of location sample, heliostat unit B (i, j) utilize 104c blue-light source and 105b color sensitive sensor array board to obtain one group of location sample, heliostat unit C (i, j) utilize 104d white light source and 105c color sensitive sensor array board to obtain one group of location sample, heliostat cells D (i, j) utilizes 104a red light source and 105d color sensitive sensor array board to obtain one group of location sample.The result of pairing is that every heliostat unit can obtain 4 groups of location samples like this.
The color sensitive sensor array board that shown in Fig. 4 a, positioning system adopts in implementing above.Four groups of sensor array strakes arrange towards Jing Chang, and array board is shaped as rectangle, orthogonal arrangement between array board, tetra-groups of regions of A, B, C, D of the corresponding Jing Chang of difference, but between array board, to keep up and down enough remote, so that projected spot discrimination is larger, be convenient to detect.It is appropriate that want array board installation site, and setting height(from bottom) is not wanted too high with convenient for maintaining but keep again that suitably height is so that heliostat carries out reflective projection, and in this example, preferably adopting is highly 2/3 of reception tower height degree.Sensor array strip has the light shield 401 that can crispatura up and down, and under positioning states, light shield is opened, and under non-positioning states, light shield blocks color sensitive sensor array board.Such as, light shield was fallen and was sheltered from color sensitive sensor array board daytime, opened light shield while positioning operation evening.Fig. 4 b is the structural representation of single color sensitive sensor array board, and array board is arranged and to be formed according to dot matrix by a plurality of color sensitive sensors, and each dot matrix is that each color sensitive sensor can be experienced irradiation being with coloured hot spot and producing corresponding current value thereon.In order to improve its anti-interference, should select wider range, and particular color hot spot causes the color sensitive sensor that pin output current value is larger, in this example, adopt CLS9032 color sensitive sensor.
The hot spot processing flow chart of color sensitive sensor array board is shown in Figure 5.The arrangement angles extremely calculating according to nominal coordinate at heliostat finite element rotation afterwards, if hot spot is not projected to color sensitive sensor array board, i.e. now not output of sensor array strake, controls heliostat unit and rotates to an angle and produce output current until array board is experienced illumination towards any direction, the color of judgement hot spot.If hot spot color conforms to the corresponding calibration light source color of current array plate, continue location spot position, and then by comparing deviation, obtain the adjustment correction angle of heliostat.If do not meet, continue to control heliostat finite element rotation until the dot projection of the color that conforms to this array board.
Fig. 6 is the schematic diagram that color sensitive sensor array board detects hot spot color and center search.
Shown in Fig. 6 a, be the panchromatic color sensitive sensor CLS9032 schematic diagram that the present invention adopts, this sensor has 2 PN junctions connected vertically, the method for using the logarithm current ratio between 2 photodiodes to process as signal.By the current output value of 3 pins of comparison colours dependent sensor (R, G, B), determine the color of hot spot, if hot spot is red, R pin output current is obviously greater than G, B pin; If white light, 3 pin electric currents are more or less the same.Utilize this principle can judge effectively reliably color.
Fig. 6 b is the schematic diagram that spot center is searched principle.Center white mark part is the central area of color sensitive sensor.Every group of color sensitive sensor array board has 3 characterising parameters, i.e. current detection color category, corresponding region and color sensitive sensor array point current state.Wherein current detection color category is set by master-control room Control Server, the generation cycle synchronisation of its change cycle and heliostat location sample; Corresponding region is every group of corresponding heliostat packet zone of color sensitive sensor array board, and in this example, this corresponding relation is fixed, and in fact if obtain more sample size, this corresponding relation changes; Color sensitive sensor array point current state is described as follows: on color sensitive sensor array board, each sensor is regarded an element of matrix as, and original state is all defaulted as 0, and when having irradiation to sensor array, the sensor states of experiencing illumination is set to 1.Like this, when having illumination to sensor array strake, can utilize matrix description sensor array state, i.e. a hot spot state.In fact, when positioning action, need to demarcate the output current of every group of color sensitive sensor array board.Calibration value of each group mainly contains 5: light shield is opened but unglazed total output current value I of array board while impinging upon on array board 0; The red output end current value of color sensitive sensor I when ruddiness all impinges upon the central area of color sensitive sensor array board rmin; The green output end current value of color sensitive sensor I when green glow all impinges upon central area gmin; The blue output end current value of color sensitive sensor I when blue light all impinges upon central area bmin; The total current value I of three ends while all impinging upon central area with white light wmin.Take Fig. 6 b as example, and in upper figure, ruddiness has only shone a color sensitive sensor in the upper left corner, and now the total output valve of sensor array strake ruddiness end is very little, although system has detected red hot spot, and the red output end current value I of central area r=0.In Fig. 6 b figure below, although central area can detect current output value, be still less than I rminand by the arrangement pitches of matrix state and color sensitive sensor, can be obtained the distance at current spot center distance arrays plate center, so deviation data is given the Control Server of master-control room through fiber optic network passage after by the microprocessor processes after array board, by Control Server, calculate angle that heliostat should adjust to hot spot is thrown to the center to array board.Color sensitive sensor array also comprises color sensitive sensor array board treatment circuit (referring to Fig. 6 C), described color sensitive sensor array board treatment circuit comprises dot matrix processing unit 41 and the microprocessor 42 that is connected computer control subsystem, each dot matrix processing unit 41 comprises multistage amplifying unit 401, filter unit 402, the A/D converting unit 403 that connects corresponding color sensitive sensor, multistage amplifying unit 401, filter unit 402 and A/D converting unit 403 connect successively, and A/D converting unit 403 output terminals connect microprocessor 42.Because the actual output current value of color sensitive sensor is very little, therefore need to amplify through 3 grades of amplifiers.In addition, consider the impact of the noise current that the on-the-spot interference noise diffusing and sensor itself exist, need to after amplifying circuit, add filtering circuit.In order to realize quick filter, the present embodiment adopts median filtering algorithm, then data is carried out to deliver to microprocessor after A/D conversion and carries out data processing.Microprocessor is mainly used in storing 3 characterising parameters of color sensitive sensor array board, judges the color of hot spot and the approximate location of current hot spot, and these information is delivered to the Control Server of master-control room.
After obtaining many groups location sample, the work that next will carry out is the parameter estimation of carrying out sample.Due to the existence of manufacture and alignment error, except centre coordinate X, Y, Z, horizontal angle θ and position angle outside, the characterising parameter of heliostat unit also comprises Eulerian angle α, β, γ, the non-perpendicular degree ω bringing due to reference coordinate system difference.The number of heliostat cell parameters has determined the minimum number of required location sample.But because sample itself also can produce uncertainty, such as the inaccuracy of measurement of coordinates, the interference of detecting sensor array board noise etc., the uncertainty existing in sample will cause the uncertainty of heliostat cell parameters, so can only roughly estimate heliostat cell parameters, and can not accurate Calculation out.In general, obtain the uncertainty that more location sample can reduce estimation parameter.For this reason, can take following method: by pairing mutually between four regions, four groups of light sources, four groups of color sensitive sensor array boards, thereby can obtain at most 16 groups of location samples.Another kind of feasible method is exactly the color category that increases light source.Sample estimate to adopt error minimize method, chooses error function, utilizes the least square method estimation error function of sening as an envoy to reach the heliostat cell parameters of minimum value.
Described computer control subsystem further comprises:
Heliostat cell location sample obtains device, and it further comprises:
First angle configurations unit: for calculating according to the coordinate of current selected artificial light sources, current sensing device coordinate, current heliostat unit coordinate and indicating current heliostat unit to adjust angle information;

Heliostat cell parameters evaluation unit: for carry out the parameter estimation of current heliostat unit according to sample information; Correction calculation unit: sunshine hot spot is accurately projected to the angle configurations information that receives tower heat absorbing units for calculating according to heliostat cell parameters.
Above-mentioned its can be logical block, can be also physical location.If logical block, Control Server that can be by similar master-control room etc. is realized.
Utilize said system device, can complete the location to heliostat unit according to following steps simultaneously.A solar energy thermal-power-generating heliostat localization method based on alternative light source, comprising:
Heliostat field is divided into a plurality of regions, and at least two artificial light sourcess of different-waveband are set in mirror field;
The adjustment information of computer control subsystem controls one heliostat unit, make sensing device this heliostat unit be detected and reflect selected artificial light sources hot spot and be positioned at its central area, after the information that comprises this adjustment information is stored as to the sample information of this heliostat unit; Can be: computer control subsystem first calculates and indicates current heliostat unit to adjust angle information at interior nominal coordinate according to the coordinate of current selected artificial light sources, current sensing device coordinate, current heliostat unit coordinate; Computer control subsystem calculates and indicates current heliostat unit to adjust angle information, makes sensing device the corresponding hot spot of current selected artificial light sources be detected and is positioned at central area, and preserve this residing angle information in heliostat unit as a sample information.
Adjustment comprises that different wave length artificial light sources is the information of current light source, obtains a plurality of sample informations.Adjustment comprises that different wave length artificial light sources is that the information of current light source further comprises: adjusting different wave length artificial light sources is current light source, or to adjust different wave length artificial light sources be current light source and to adjust different sensing devices be current sensing device.
Estimate the parameter of this heliostat unit;
According to the calculation of parameter of this heliostat unit, go out heliostat unit angle configurations when sunshine hot spot is accurately projected to central authorities and receives the heat absorbing units on tower rotation heliostat, to this angle, makes dot projection to the heat absorbing units receiving on tower, thereby completes the correction of this heliostat unit.
Refer to Fig. 7, it is an example of the present invention.
Step 1, first four regions, four groups of artificial light sourcess and four groups of color sensitive sensors are matched: (region 106a, red light source 104a, color sensitive sensor array board 105a), (106b, 104b, 105b), (106c, 104c, 105c), (106d, 104d, 105d).In the present embodiment, every heliostat unit gathers four groups of samples, so the combination of four regions and four groups of color sensitive sensor array boards is fixed, be the fixing corresponding 105a of 106a, 106b fixes corresponding 105b, and 106c fixes corresponding 105c, and 106d fixes corresponding 105d.
Step 2: the mirror rotation that respectively four sides will be located is to the angle calculating (i=1,2,3,4, expression is positioned at the four sides mirror in four regions respectively).This angle calculates according to current calibration light source coordinate, color sensitive sensor array board central area coordinate, heliostat central point name coordinate, if there is not error in heliostat,, when rotating to this angle, hot spot should drop on sensor array strake central area just.
Step 3: start array board hot spot handling procedure, guiding heliostat by dot projection to array board central area.When array board output terminal produces over certain threshold current, first judge hot spot color, if color conforms to the color that current array plate will detect, carry out the search of spot center point.If do not conform to, the heliostat that rotation will be proofreaied and correct rotates arbitrarily until array board produces respective color output according to a fixed step size.After color conforms to, by introducing array board sensor states matrix, judge current spot center and array board central area distance, simultaneously comparator array plate central area current output value I and calibration value I minlarge I judge now whether Yi center of hot spot.
Step 4: when hot spot has been projected to color sensitive sensor array board central area, record heliostat angle configurations now four sides heliostat is proofreaied and correct to the current angle configurations of light source coordinate used, color sensitive sensor array board center point coordinate, heliostat these 3 groups of parameters form one group of location sample of heliostats, and by this Sample preservation in the storage server in master-control room.
Step 5: whether the sample size that judges every heliostat is greater than N, wherein the estimation sample number value of N for calculating according to positioning accuracy request.If be less than N, four regions and array board and four groups of artificial light sourcess are matched again, as (106a, 104b, 105a), (106b, 104c, 105b), (106c, 104d, 105c), (106d, 104a, 105d).Notice that now the combination in 106 territories, mirror place and 105 array boards does not change.If require sample size to be greater than 4,106 and 105 also can combine pairing.
