Description

Angle-based heliostat space positioning system and method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of solar thermal power generation, and particularly relates to a heliostat space positioning system and method based on angles.
Background
In the tower type photo-thermal power station, solar energy with enough optical power density is converged by thousands of heliostats, so that conversion from the optical energy to the thermal energy is realized. A control system of the heliostat accurately reflects sunlight at different times to a target area based on spatial position information of the heliostat. If the spatial position information of the heliostat is not accurate enough, the direction of the sunlight reflected by the heliostat is deviated, and the deviation is increased along with the distance between the heliostat and a target point. Conventional heliostat correction methods consider heliostat spatial position information as a known quantity, so this error is difficult to correct effectively and can be incorporated into other errors, affecting the ultimate control accuracy of the heliostat.
The existing heliostat spatial position information acquisition mode is mapping. And covering the whole heliostat field area by the measurement control nets of different levels to establish a coordinate system, and then measuring and drawing the spatial position information of each heliostat. Although the method can ensure higher positioning accuracy, a large amount of time is consumed for surveying and mapping each heliostat, measurement errors are easily introduced due to long-time repeated manual operation, and a large amount of time is consumed for rechecking a large amount of surveying and mapping data. Therefore, a heliostat space positioning method is needed, which performs space positioning operation on each heliostat in parallel on the premise of ensuring space positioning accuracy.
