All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without making any creative effort based on the embodiments in the present invention, belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
The method for identifying the physical position of the photovoltaic module disclosed in this embodiment is applied to a host in a module monitoring system, the module monitoring system further includes monitors deployed on each photovoltaic module, each monitor may be deployed on each photovoltaic module in one photovoltaic group string, or may be deployed on each photovoltaic module in more than one photovoltaic group string, and each monitor corresponds to at least one photovoltaic module, that is, one photovoltaic module may correspond to one monitor, or there may be a case where two or more photovoltaic modules share one monitor.
The monitor has the function of detecting the parameters of the components, and the host is in communication connection with each monitor, and can adopt wired or wireless connection. The monitor can be a component monitor, a shutoff device, an optimizer and the like with a pure monitoring function, and can also be directly integrated on the photovoltaic component to form an intelligent component together with the photovoltaic component. The host machine can be a separate device or can be integrated in the inverter.
Each monitor has a unique identifier, and after each monitor in the component monitoring system is deployed on each photovoltaic component, the host computer can acquire the related parameter information of the photovoltaic component where each monitor is located, which is sent by each monitor, but does not know the physical position of the photovoltaic component, and in order to solve the technical problem, the invention provides a method for automatically identifying the physical position of the photovoltaic component, referring to fig. 1, the method comprises the following steps:
s101: under the condition that the system enters an identification mode, sending a parameter acquisition instruction to each monitor to control each monitor to continuously acquire a preset parameter value of the photovoltaic module, and recording the sampling time of the preset parameter value;
because the control is every watch-dog and is lasted the collection place photovoltaic module predetermine the parameter value to the purpose in of the sampling time of predetermineeing the parameter value is recorded: the method comprises the steps of collecting preset parameter values and sampling time of the photovoltaic module under normal conditions, collecting the preset parameter values and the sampling time of the corresponding photovoltaic module after disturbance is applied, and further determining the corresponding sampling time of the photovoltaic module to which the monitor is applied when the disturbance is applied according to data collected by the monitor. Therefore, the preset parameters are parameters of the disturbed image, such as voltage, and if the system is in a grid-connected mode, the preset parameters can also include parameters such as current and power besides the voltage for reference, so that the accuracy of determining the time when the disturbance is applied to the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located is improved.
The monitor may or may not have a clock function.
If each monitor has a clock function, sending a parameter acquisition instruction to each monitor specifically comprises: and sending a parameter acquisition instruction for instructing to start a clock function and continuously acquiring the preset parameter value of the photovoltaic module to each monitor so as to control each monitor to record the sampling time of the preset parameter value through clock time.
If each monitor does not have the clock function, sending a parameter acquisition instruction to each monitor specifically comprises the following steps: and sending a parameter acquisition instruction for instructing to start a counting function and continuously acquiring the preset parameter value of the photovoltaic module to each monitor so as to control each monitor to record the sampling time of the preset parameter value through the time represented by counting.
The mode of sending the parameter acquisition instruction can be a mode of sending an enabling zone bit in a group broadcasting mode so as to control each monitor to continuously acquire the preset parameter value of the photovoltaic module according to the preset logic and record the sampling time of the preset parameter value.
S102: after determining that each photovoltaic module is subjected to disturbance according to the sequence of physical positions, acquiring a preset parameter value acquired by each monitor and sampling time of the preset parameter value;
the disturbance may be applied in various manners, such as applying the disturbance to each photovoltaic module by making a moving shadow over each photovoltaic module in order of physical position, applying the disturbance to each photovoltaic module by disposing a barrier at the head or tail of a string of each photovoltaic module, and the like, and is not particularly limited herein.
When disturbance is applied to each photovoltaic module in a mode of manufacturing moving shadows above each photovoltaic module according to the sequence of the physical positions, after a disturbance application completion instruction sent by a user is received, it is determined that each photovoltaic module is subjected to disturbance according to the sequence of the physical positions.
When disturbance is applied to each photovoltaic module by arranging a shielding object at the head or the tail of a photovoltaic module string consisting of each photovoltaic module, the system enters an identification mode after starting up, because the disturbance mode is that shadow generated on the photovoltaic module is moved by illumination, the disturbance application time is long, a preset time length needs to be set, such as 12 hours, and when the time length for the system to enter the identification mode reaches the preset time length, the disturbance applied to each photovoltaic module according to the sequence of physical positions is determined.
S103: and determining the relative physical position of the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located according to the sequence of the corresponding sampling time when the preset parameter value acquired by each monitor fluctuates.
Taking a photovoltaic string as an example of the system structure, please refer to fig. 2, after the system enters the recognition mode, a moving shadow is artificially created from the very tail of the string, and the shadow is sequentially moved from the tail of the string to the head of the string according to the sequence of the physical positions. In the process, the preset parameter values recorded by the monitor, such as the voltage, and the corresponding time sequence of the voltage, i.e. the sampling time, are shown in fig. 3, and the time when the disturbance is applied to the photovoltaic module where the monitor is located can be obviously determined.
The following table shows the time of applying the disturbance to the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located, and the relative physical position of each photovoltaic module calculated according to the sequence of the time of applying the disturbance to each photovoltaic module, wherein the serial number is the identifier of the monitor, and the time sequence of the parameter change is the time of applying the disturbance to the photovoltaic module.
It should be noted that the time sequence is not necessarily the real time recorded by the clock, but may also be the cumulative timing through counting, such as adding 1 to every 1 second, and finally recording the total number of seconds.
The purpose of determining the relative physical positions of the photovoltaic modules is to bind the monitor with the photovoltaic module where the monitor is located, it should be noted that before the system enters the identification mode, the host computer already obtains the identifier of each monitor and the identifiers of the photovoltaic modules installed according to the sequence of the physical positions, and the method for obtaining the identifiers may be manual entry or code scanning entry.
After the relative physical position of the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located is determined, the identifier of the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located can be determined according to the sequence of the physical positions when each photovoltaic module is installed and the relative physical position of the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located, the identifier of each monitor is bound with the identifier of the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located, and when the monitor corresponds to more than one photovoltaic module, the identifier of each monitor is bound with the identifier of the more than one photovoltaic module where each monitor is located.
It can be seen that, in the case that the system enters the identification mode, by sending a parameter acquisition instruction to each monitor, each monitor acquires the preset parameter value of the photovoltaic module where the monitor is located, and records the sampling time of the preset parameter value, since each monitor acquires the preset parameter value and the sampling time of the photovoltaic module where the monitor is located under the normal condition, and also acquires the preset parameter value and the sampling time of the corresponding photovoltaic module where the disturbance is applied, the method can determine the sampling time of the photovoltaic module where the monitor is located when the disturbance is applied according to the data acquired by each monitor, and since each photovoltaic module is disturbed according to the sequence of the physical positions, the method can determine the sampling time sequence of the photovoltaic module where the monitor is located when the disturbance is applied according to the sequence of the sampling time of the photovoltaic module where the monitor is located when the disturbance is applied, the relative physical position of the photovoltaic module where each monitor is located is determined, so that the automatic identification of the physical position of the photovoltaic module is realized, the problem that errors are easily caused by manual recording of the physical position of the photovoltaic module is avoided, and the identification efficiency is improved.
