Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
Referring to fig. 1, a dust early warning method based on infrared detection includes the following steps:
s1, obtaining an optimal cleaning day according to dust early warning of a photovoltaic string; the dust early warning has more mature models, so that the optimal cleaning day D can be obtained from a general dust early warning system.
S2, judging whether the current date is the optimal cleaning date, if so, proceeding to step S8, and if not, proceeding to step S3.
S3, carrying out discrete rate scanning on the photovoltaic string, judging whether the discrete rate is abnormal, if so, waiting for a preset time, and then entering a step S7, and if so, entering a step S4.
The discrete rate in the step S3 is used for evaluating the overall running condition of the string current of the combiner box group of the photovoltaic power station, and the smaller the discrete rate value is, the more concentrated the branch current curves of the combiner boxes are, and the more stable the power generation condition is. Discrete rate = standard deviation of group string current/average value of group string current 100%.
Specific examples are as follows: the range of string current discrete values can be divided into four classes according to production operation and maintenance experience:
(1) The discrete rate is < =5%, and the operation is stable;
(2) 5% < discrete rate < = 10%, working well;
(3) 10% < discrete rate < = 20%, operation to be improved;
(4) The discrete rate is >20% and the string fails.
(5) Discrete rate = 100%, group string does not generate/drop string.
For example, the following junction boxes are connected into 8 strings in total, and the current conditions at a certain moment are as follows:
string set 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Electric current 3.15 3.16 1.1 3.18 3.2 3.15 3.17 3.13
Calculated, the dispersion ratio= 25.12% >20%, and a certain component is judged to be faulty. It is checked that group string 3 is faulty.
The step of discrete rate scanning comprises the following steps:
s3.1, scanning the photovoltaic group strings under the same inverter, taking out the current of each photovoltaic group string, and calculating the discrete rate of the current;
s3.2, judging whether the discrete rate in the group string is abnormal or not according to the calculated result of the discrete rate.
S4, starting the unmanned aerial vehicle to carry out inspection on the group string with abnormal discrete rate in the step S3 and obtaining an infrared photo. The infrared photo is obtained by infrared heat map of the photovoltaic panel. Infrared thermography techniques use mid-wave (MWIR, about 3-5 μm) or long-wave (LWIR, about 7-14 μm) infrared sensors to acquire thermal images or thermographic images of the object under inspection. According to the law of black body radiation by planck, all objects emit infrared radiation in proportion to their temperature. For example, the turned-off bulb may emit very low power radiation, which is at wavelengths well above 1 μm, typically outside the range visible to the unaided human eye. If the light switch is turned on, the temperature will rise and the bulb will emit red light into the visible spectrum due to the higher radiant energy emitted by the bulb. If the temperature continues to rise, the radiation may change from red to purple, and the lamp light then appears white. Therefore, the infrared thermal imaging technique is a possible technique for determining the surface temperature of an object and checking whether an abnormality occurs in the temperature distribution of a human body or a solar photovoltaic panel.
And S5, performing edge detection on the infrared photo obtained in the step S4 to obtain a final segmentation image of the photovoltaic module, as shown in FIG. 2.
Edges in a physical sense generally correspond to discontinuities in the physical, brightness and geometric properties of a scene object that provide important visual information. The edges in a common physical sense correspond to significant changes in reflectivity, illumination, direction and depth of the scene surface. Considering that the solar photovoltaic panel approximates a rectangle, the segmentation algorithm fully utilizes the priori knowledge to convert the segmentation problem of the solar photovoltaic panel into the edge detection problem, obtains the outline points of the solar photovoltaic panel according to the edge detection algorithm, constructs the minimum circumscribed rectangle to approximate the solar photovoltaic panel, and realizes the segmentation of the solar photovoltaic panel.
The edge detection algorithm in the step S5 is an edge detection segmentation algorithm based on a parallel Canny operator, and the specific steps include:
s5.1, filtering and denoising the infrared photo; the filtering denoising adopts a guide filter to filter so as to preserve edge information.
S5.2, carrying out image enhancement on the infrared photo taking the photovoltaic string as a foreground background; the foreground and background contrast is increased by a contrast enhancement method so as to utilize an H value for foreground and background segmentation in HSV space. The contrast is enhanced by adopting a gamma conversion method, and when the gamma conversion factor is larger than 1, the details of the highlight area of the image can be increased, so that the method meets the expected requirement.
S5.3, performing foreground segmentation on the infrared photo processed in the step S5.2; specifically, the foreground segmentation is performed in the HSV space by using the H value by using a color image segmentation method, the segmentation result is converted into an R channel corresponding to the RGB image, and then single-threshold segmentation is performed once again, so that a foreground binary image is obtained, as shown in fig. 3.
S5.4, converting the image obtained after the foreground segmentation in the step S5.3 into a YCrCb color space by an RGB color space, separating a Cb channel, and performing Canny operator edge detection under the Cb channel, so that edges between the photovoltaic modules can be clearly seen, and a connected domain of the independent photovoltaic modules is obtained;
the step of performing Canny operator edge detection comprises the following steps:
s5.4.1, the Canny operator comprises a high Canny operator with high double threshold and a low Canny operator with low double threshold which are connected in parallel, and the edge detection graph obtained by the high Canny operator is subjected to expansion operation, wherein the edge detection graph of the high Canny operator is shown in fig. 4; the high Canny operator result expansion map is shown in fig. 5.
S5.4.2, performing exclusive-or operation on the result obtained by the expansion operation and the foreground binary image to obtain an exclusive-or operation intermediate result image, as shown in fig. 6.
S5.4.3, the low Canny operator detects more edges as much as possible under the premise of sacrificing a certain accuracy, and performs AND operation with an edge detection diagram obtained by the high Canny operator after the opposite, wherein the AND operation result diagram is shown in fig. 7, and morphological operation is added to obtain a final result image, namely a segmentation binary diagram, as shown in fig. 8.
And S5.5, carrying out contour analysis and further filtering on the connected domain obtained in the step S5.4 by utilizing a contour tracking algorithm to obtain a final segmentation image of the photovoltaic module. Specific examples are as follows: firstly, calculating the area S of the connected domain according to the contour points contour In order to improve the fault tolerance, the upper limit of the area of the connected domain is set to 10000, the lower limit is set to 1000, and the solar photovoltaic panel with larger and smaller area caused by the change of the flight height of the unmanned aerial vehicle is reserved as far as possible. Considering that the solar photovoltaic panel is close to a rectangle, even if the segmentation result is deviated, the whole is close to the rectangle, an index is designed, and the index is defined as the convex hull area of the connected domain (S convex_hull ) The area difference ratio with the connected domain is calculated as follows:
Figure GDA0004204248520000091
if eta is less than or equal to 0.28, the connected domain is reserved, otherwise, the connected domain is abandoned. η is mainly used to filter the background of the misclassification.
S6, performing hot spot detection on the photovoltaic module after the split image, if no hot spot is detected, entering a step S7, and if the hot spot is detected, performing hot spot early warning and entering a step S8;
among them, hot spots are a common fault occurring on solar photovoltaic panels, negatively affecting the normal operation of the solar photovoltaic panels. One of the main causes of hot spots is dust shielding. When a certain cell of the solar photovoltaic panel is shaded, it reduces the current through that cell. Other normal cells that produce higher voltages typically reverse bias the shaded cells, which can be significant in power consumption. High power losses in the small range can lead to local overheating of the solar panel and thus to hot spots, which can lead to serious power losses and, in the worst case, even to fires. By researching the principle of hot spot generation, it is not difficult to find that the solar photovoltaic panel with the hot spot can generate local area overheat during normal operation, the phenomenon is not obvious under visible light, but the hot spot can generate local bright spots in an infrared heat map due to higher temperature. The hot spots under the infrared heat map have obvious difference from the normal area, so that the machine vision method is favorable for hot spot detection under the infrared heat map.
The hot spot detection algorithm in step S6 specifically includes:
s6.1, extracting the characteristics of hot spots in the B channel, the Cr channel and the V channel;
experimental observation can find that the hot spots are closer to white than normal solar light Fu Banliang in RGB color channel pictures, and the color of a normal solar photovoltaic panel is closer to yellow in the hot spot area pixel point RGB color space. Ideally the yellow is [255, 0] in the RGB color space, and the B channel is a very small integer, even if it is not pure yellow, most of which is actually below 10. The white color is [255, 255, 255] in the RGB color space, and the B-channel value is an integer close to 255 even if the hot spot is not pure white, so that the difference between the pixel value of the hot spot region and the pixel value of the normal solar photovoltaic panel region is about 200 in the B-channel. Therefore, the B channel is a color channel which can obviously distinguish hot spots from normal solar photovoltaic panels, and the Cr channel and the V channel are similar characteristic extraction channels.
As shown in fig. 9, the feature extraction method using the adaptive sliding window extracts features, which specifically includes the steps of:
s6.1.1 dividing the long side H of a solar photovoltaic panel in the photovoltaic module into 3 areas, wherein the long side H with the cross is equal to H/2, and the width is equal to the wide self-adaptive sliding window of the solar photovoltaic panel;
s6.1.2, an artificial feature is calculated in each sliding window, where artificial feature refers to a pixel ratio alpha of more than 10 under the B channel,
the calculation formula is that
Figure GDA0004204248520000101
Wherein bin i The cumulative frequency of pixel values i in the statistical histogram is represented, and H and W represent the height and width of the solar photovoltaic panel;
s6.1.3, extracting other features in the sliding window with the largest artificial features, wherein the other features are features of hot spots extracted in the B channel, the Cr channel and the V channel, and forming final input feature vectors with the artificial features of the sliding window.
S6.2, identifying the extracted features;
and S6.3, identifying the hot spots by using a hot spot identification algorithm based on the identified features.
The hot spot recognition algorithm in the step S6.3 adopts a hot spot recognition algorithm based on a Support Vector Machine (SVM), and adopts zero-mean normalization to normalize a data set according to a training set: test set = 4:1 ratio random partitioning.
The related concept of support vector machine (support vector machines, SVM) derives from VC theory proposed by Vapnik and cores in 1963, an algorithm for assigning labels to new objects by example learning, mainly to solve the binary linear classification problem.
The central idea of the SVM is to find a separation hyperplane which can correctly distinguish the training set data and the geometric distance from the positive and negative sample points closest to the hyperplane in the training set data to the hyperplane is the largest, and the hyperplane can ensure that the training set data is correctly classified with the largest confidence. The core keywords of the SVM are separation hyperplane, interval maximization, soft interval and core skill.
Since solar photovoltaic panels with hot spots account for a few of all solar photovoltaic panels, specific examples are as follows: 250 positive samples are extracted from a solar photovoltaic panel of 300 infrared heat maps of a certain photovoltaic power station, and 400 negative samples are extracted in order to balance the positive and negative samples as much as possible in consideration of the fact that the number of actual negative samples is far greater than that of positive samples. If the artificial feature input feature vector in step S6.1.3 is 16-dimensional in total, i.e. 12-dimensional features are extracted in the B channel, 2-dimensional features are extracted in the Cr channel, 2-dimensional features are extracted in the V channel, and 16-dimensional features are extracted in total. Since the support vector machine is "distance" sensitive, the input feature vector requires a normalization operation, here Zero-mean normalization (Zero-Score Normalization), to normalize the data set to a training set: test set = 4:1 ratio randomly divides training and test sets. The photovoltaic panels with hot spots are correctly identified, the average identification time is 820ms, and the actual operation and maintenance requirements can be met.

s8, cleaning the photovoltaic string; the operation and maintenance personnel go to the appointed problem string, and the string dust is cleaned, so that the hidden hot spot trouble or the influence of dust on power generation is eliminated.
S9, ending.
Although the invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical scheme described in the foregoing embodiments can be modified or some technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents; such modifications and substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
