Detailed Description
In order to clearly understand the technical contents of the present invention, the following examples are given in detail.
The invention relates to a method for analyzing a solar module with failed reliability, which is characterized in that the solar module is subjected to high temperature and electric injection treatment, if an EL test and a power test of the failed module are both stably recovered to be normal (initial states), the failed module is judged to be a battery piece failure, and the failure is unrelated to a packaging material of a photovoltaic module. The misjudgment of technicians is avoided, an accurate direction is provided for the technicians to find the failure problem, the failure analysis time and cost are saved, and the trouble of separating the battery piece from the packaging material is avoided.
The method for analyzing the solar module with the failed reliability specifically comprises the following steps:
s0: sorting out solar modules which fail in the reliability test, cleaning front glass for standby, and knowing corresponding EL test results and power test results of the failed modules before the reliability test, wherein the corresponding EL test results and power test results are used as EL test results and power test results of the failed modules in the initial state;
s1: placing the glass surface of the failed component on the table top of a laminating machine in a downward mode to perform electric injection in a high-temperature and dark-light environment;
s2: performing EL test and power test to obtain processed EL test results and power test results;
s3: comparing the results, and judging whether the failure component is a battery piece failure or other failures;
s4: and verifying the failed component analyzed as the failed battery piece.
In step S0:
the sorted failure components must not contact hair and plastic, preventing the melting from adhering to the surface after high temperature treatment.
Step S1 specifically includes:
horizontally placing the glass surface of the failed component on the table board of a laminating machine in a downward mode, then paving a laminated sheet (playing a role in heat preservation) on the back surface of the failed component or wrapping the failed component by using a laminated pad, and connecting the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the failed component into the positive electrode and the negative electrode of a direct-current power supply box;
setting the electric injection current to be 6A-10A and 5A-9A, setting the table top of the laminating machine to be at 150 ℃, for example, introducing constant forward current of 6A or 9A, and monitoring the actual temperature of the primary failure component and the condition of the introduced current for 1h, wherein the temperature of the surface of the actual failure component is 85-130 ℃ and 110-130 ℃, when the forward current of 6A is introduced, the actual test is monitored for 5.9A-6A, and the power supply power is about 600W at most;
wait for 4h, take out, cool to 30 ℃.
In step S2:
the EL test can use a full-automatic EL tester, an infrared camera with resolution ratio is used for shooting images, and component defects are obtained and judged; the power test may use a component tester to measure the relevant electrical performance parameters.
In step S3:
if the EL and the power can be recovered to the initial state and are stabilized in the initial state, the failure component is the failure caused by the battery plate;
if the EL or the power can not be recovered to the initial state, the failure component is failure caused by packaging materials or battery slurry contact, the problem of battery body attenuation is at least quickly eliminated, the battery process comparison is not needed any more, and the failure direction is reduced to two, namely, the battery slurry contact problem or the packaging material problem.
The packaging material comprises a frame, glass, an EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) adhesive film and a back plate, wherein the EVA adhesive film is the most important material, the solar module is easy to generate fatal defects due to improper use, and initial sample sending is required to be tested and verified to be available, so that the influence of the material is easy to lock quickly.
If the packaging material fails, water vapor generally enters the surface of the solar cell, and then whether the water vapor enters the surface of the solar cell or not is observed, so that judgment can be made.
And after the packaging material is removed from failure, only the battery slurry is left to contact, so that the batteries with different slurries can be quickly selected for verification once, and the conclusion can be obtained by repeated tests.
Step S4 specifically includes:
in order to confirm whether the power of the failed component is in a stable state, the failed component is placed in an outdoor environment for exposure for 60kwh, then the power difference value of the actual power of the failed component after exposure to the sun and the initial state is tested, and if the power difference value is within an acceptance range, the power of the failed component can be recovered to the initial state and is stable.
As shown in fig. 3, the present invention also provides a corresponding apparatus, comprising a lamination station 1 for placing the failed component and providing a high temperature environment; the laminated pad 2 is used for wrapping the failure component 3 to provide a dark light environment and avoid the influence of other indoor light sources; a dc power supply device 4 for providing electrical injection to the failed component and a cover plate 5. In particular, the device can accommodate large size solar modules, e.g., 1650 × 992 × 35mm and 1960 × 992 × 40 mm.
Wherein, the laminated pad is high temperature resistant, and is spread on the solar cell panel or wraps the failure component to play the roles of heat preservation and light shielding.
Example 1
S0: sorting out failure components with power attenuation more than 5% after DH1000 and HF10 tests, cleaning front glass for standby, and taking corresponding EL test results and power test results of the failure components before DH1000 and HF10 tests as EL test results and power test results of the initial state of the failure components;
s1: placing the glass surface of the failed component on the table top of a laminating machine in a downward mode to perform electric injection in a high-temperature and dark-light environment;
s2: performing EL test and power test to obtain processed EL test results and power test results;
s3: compared with the results, the power level of the initial state can be recovered, and the EL test shows that the battery piece which is originally darkened and blackened also recovers the normal light-emitting state;
s4: after outdoor insolation, the power does not decrease.
The above steps are shown in fig. 2, and thus, it can be clearly determined that the above failed component is a cell failure in combination with the steps of S3 and S4, and the failure can be recovered and stabilized.
Table 1 below is a record of experimental data for the entire process described above, and fig. 1 is a corresponding EL plot.
Figure BDA0002066856630000051
The results in table 1 and fig. 1 show that the solar module with power (PMPP) decreased by 8.5% after DH1000 was tested and left standing for 6 days, the partially blackened cell was treated by electro-injection to recover power to 309.6W, the originally darkened or blackened cell recovered to emit light, and the left standing process and the outdoor exposure process were both stable.
The method provided by the invention can find out the failure reason of the solar component in a short time, and the solar component can be recovered as before through the methods of electric injection and high temperature, so that the use is not influenced, and the consumable material is saved.
In this specification, the invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments thereof. It will, however, be evident that various modifications and changes may be made thereto without departing from the broader spirit and scope of the invention. The specification and drawings are, accordingly, to be regarded in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense.
