La figura 1 muestra un esquema de una instalación para mejorar el rendimiento de una instalación de paneles fotovoltaicos.Figure 1 shows a schematic of a installation to improve the performance of an installation of photovoltaic panels.

Realización preferente de la invenciónPreferred Embodiment of the Invention

La mejora de la eficiencia de la producción de energía eléctrica de una instalación solar fotovoltaica se centra en sus paneles solares fotovoltaicos, los cuales se encuentran a una temperatura distinta de la temperatura de máxima eficiencia.Improving the production efficiency of electric power of a photovoltaic solar installation is focused in its photovoltaic solar panels, which are located at a temperature other than the maximum temperature efficiency.

Se conseguirá lograr la temperatura de máxima eficiencia mediante un fluido no contaminante, económico y sin ningún tipo de problemas medioambientales: El agua; capaz de ceder o absorber el calor que necesitan o poseen los paneles solares fotovoltaicos para conseguir la temperatura de máxima eficiencia.The maximum temperature will be achieved efficiency through a non-polluting fluid, economical and without No environmental problems: Water; able to yield or absorb the heat that solar panels need or possess photovoltaic to achieve maximum temperature efficiency.

El funcionamiento de esta instalación es cíclico y comienza echando agua con un difusor (1) sobre la superficie de incidencia de los rayos solares de los paneles solares fotovoltaicos (2), produciendo así, una variación de temperatura en ellos.The operation of this installation is cyclic and start by pouring water with a diffuser (1) on the surface of incidence of solar rays from photovoltaic solar panels (2), thus producing a temperature variation in them.

Para reducir el gasto en el consumo de agua, ésta se reutiliza. Para ello, en la parte inferior de los paneles solares fotovoltaicos (2) se sitúa un recogedor de agua (3). Este recogedor dispone de un filtro para gruesos, es decir, elementos extraños como hojas, papeles, pequeñas ramas, pequeños animales, etc., los cuales pueden entorpecer el buen funcionamiento de la instalación si entran en ella. El recogedor (3) dispone de un sensor de nivel (6) que indica la cantidad de agua disponible que se puede reutilizar. El recogedor también dispone de una salida hacia el equipo de bombeo (5) ó entrada a la instalación. También dispone de una segunda salida (4) que permite el total vaciado del recogedor por tareas de limpieza de sedimentos o renovación del agua del circuito, esta salida se controla por medio de una electroválvula.To reduce spending on water consumption, It is reused. To do this, at the bottom of the panels Photovoltaic solar (2) a water collector (3) is located. This collector has a filter for thicknesses, that is, elements strangers like leaves, papers, small branches, small animals, etc., which can hinder the proper functioning of the installation if they enter it. The collector (3) has a sensor level (6) indicating the amount of available water that can be re-use. The collector also has an exit to the pumping equipment (5) or entrance to the installation. It also has a second outlet (4) that allows the total emptying of the collector for sediment cleaning or water renewal tasks circuit, this output is controlled by means of a solenoid valve

Una vez en el recogedor (3), el agua se bombea mediante el equipo de bombeo para su posterior reutilización. El equipo de bombeo (5) consta de al menos una bomba, preferentemente dos bombas, de motor eléctrico situadas en configuración una más reserva, que funcionan de forma alternativa. A la salida de cada bomba se sitúan sendas válvulas de seguridad que evitan problemas de sobrepresión en el circuito, en caso que se produzca un funcionamiento anómalo de la instalación. Cómo el funcionamiento de las bombas es de forma alternativa, se une la conducción de salida de cada bomba mediante un selector de circuito. Según la bomba que funcione, el selector permite que el caudal bombeado continúe el tratamiento y no sea devuelto al recogedor a través de la bomba en reserva.Once in the collector (3), the water is pumped by pumping equipment for later reuse. He pumping equipment (5) consists of at least one pump, preferably two electric motor pumps located in one more configuration Reserve, they work alternately. At the exit of each pump are located safety valves that avoid problems overpressure in the circuit, in the event of a abnormal operation of the installation. How the operation of the pumps is alternatively, the output line is attached of each pump by means of a circuit selector. According to the bomb that function, the selector allows the pumped flow to continue the treatment and not be returned to the collector through the pump in reservation.

A continuación en el circuito se instala una válvula antiretorno (7) que evita el vaciado del circuito a través de las bombas cuando estas paren de funcionar.Next, a circuit is installed non-return valve (7) that prevents emptying of the circuit through of the bombs when they stop working.

Seguidamente se instala los componentes de filtrado (8), dos filtros en configuración uno más reserva. El funcionamiento de este conjunto es muy sencillo, el agua circula siempre por el primer filtro, que inevitablemente se colmata, provocando:Then the components of filtered (8), two filters in configuration one more reserve. He operation of this set is very simple, water circulates always for the first filter, which inevitably clogs up, causing:

1.one.
Un incremento de presión, que vence las válvulas antiretorno, realizándose entonces el filtrado a través del filtro en paralelo o filtro de reserva, con lo que siempre el fluido tratado va a estar filtrado.An increase in pressure, which overcomes the valves non-return, then filtering through the filter in parallel or reserve filter, so that the fluid always Treated will be filtered.

2.2.
La lectura de los manómetros del primer filtro provoca que el sistema de control reconozca la colmatación del primer filtro, avisando de la operación de mantenimiento de cambio.The pressure gauge reading of the first filter causes the control system to recognize the clogging of the first filter, warning of the maintenance operation of change.

Después de este sistema de filtrado se sitúa el equipo de regulación de la temperatura que consiste en un calentador (9), que tiene como finalidad aumentar la temperatura del agua, y un refrigerador (10), que lógicamente tiene como finalidad disminuir la temperatura del agua. Cada uno de estos elementos funciona de manera independiente según las condiciones exteriores de temperatura. En relación al equipo de regulación de temperatura: calentador y refrigerador, hay que destacar:After this filtering system the temperature regulation equipment consisting of a heater (9), which aims to increase the temperature of water, and a refrigerator (10), which logically has as purpose decrease the water temperature. Each one of these elements works independently according to conditions outside temperature. In relation to the regulation team of Temperature: heater and refrigerator, it should be noted:

1.one.
El calentador (9) incrementa la temperatura del agua, este incremento se realiza de diversas formas en función de la configuración y dimensiones de la instalación de los paneles solares fotovoltaicos. Para una pequeña instalación el calentamiento se efectúa a través de una resistencia eléctrica o por medio de la instalación de unos colectores solares térmicos, ya que resultaría una opción muy económica y rentable. En instalaciones de mayor tamaño se instala un sistema que de servicio a todos los calentadores.The heater (9) increases the temperature of the water, this increase is made in various ways depending on the configuration and dimensions of the installation of the panels photovoltaic solar. For a small installation the heating is carried out through an electrical resistance or through the installation of thermal solar collectors, since That would be a very economical and profitable option. In larger facilities a system is installed that service to all heaters.

2.2.
El refrigerador (10) disminuye la temperatura del agua. La forma de realizar esta disminución, al igual que en el calentador, puede efectuarse de muchas maneras distintas, aunque una de las más eficaces y económica será a través de un circuito refrigerador independiente a esta instalación, el cual, también puede enfriar agua de varias instalaciones a la vez.The refrigerator (10) lowers the temperature of the Water. The way to make this decrease, as in the heater, can be done in many different ways, although one of the most effective and economical will be through a circuit independent refrigerator to this facility, which, too It can cool water from several facilities at once.

Seguidamente se instala otra válvula antiretorno (11) que evita que el agua proveniente de la red (12), usada para la limpieza de paneles solares fotovoltaicos, renovación del agua del circuito y regular la temperatura de los paneles solares fotovoltaicos, en caso de que se produzca avería en la instalación, circule en sentido inverso al correcto.Then another non-return valve is installed (11) that prevents water from the network (12), used to photovoltaic solar panel cleaning, water renovation of the circuit and regulate the temperature of the solar panels photovoltaic, in case of installation failure, circulate in the opposite direction to the correct one.

El circuito de incorporación del agua de red (12) lleva asociado varios componentes: una válvula o [lave de corte o válvula de aislamiento, una electroválvula que permita la entrada del agua de red a la instalación y válvula antiretorno (11) que evita que el agua tratada en el equipo de regulación de la temperatura circule hacia el circuito de agua de red.The network water incorporation circuit (12) has several components associated with it: a valve or cut-off or isolation valve, a solenoid valve that allows the network water inlet to the installation and non-return valve (11) which prevents the water treated in the regulation equipment of the temperature circulate to the mains water circuit.

A partir de la unión de los dos circuitos, de agua de red y de agua reutilizada, el conducto resultante finaliza en un difusor que descarga (1) que reparte de forma eficiente el agua en la parte superior de los paneles solares fotovoltaicos (2).From the union of the two circuits, of mains water and reused water, the resulting conduit ends in a diffuser that discharges (1) that efficiently distributes the water on top of photovoltaic solar panels (2).

Según el número y configuración de los paneles solares fotovoltaicos en la estructura soporte se puede instalar un recogedor, más un difusor en cada fila de paneles solares fotovoltaicos, logrando así una mayor eficiencia al ajustar mejor la temperatura de cada panel a la temperatura de máxima eficiencia.According to the number and configuration of the panels photovoltaic solar in the support structure you can install a collector, plus a diffuser in each row of solar panels photovoltaic, thus achieving greater efficiency by adjusting better the temperature of each panel at the maximum temperature efficiency.

En el circuito se instalan en puntos estratégicos diversos aparatos de medida: termómetros, manómetros y caudalímetros, que recogen las características de cada punto de la instalación para entregarlas al sistema de control: que puede ser un ordenador o un autómata programable, y este a su vez los analiza y toma las decisiones pertinentes según su programa de órdenes.In the circuit they are installed in points strategic various measuring devices: thermometers, pressure gauges and flowmeters, which collect the characteristics of each point of the installation to deliver to the control system: which can be a computer or a programmable automaton, and this in turn analyzes them and make the relevant decisions according to your order schedule.

La instalación está gobernada por dicho sistema de control, que a través de información almacenada en el mismo permita la total independencia del exterior en su control, salvo en operaciones de mantenimiento, siendo capaz de ajustar en todo momento la temperatura de los paneles solares fotovoltaicos a la temperatura de máxima eficacia. Preferentemente este sistema de control posee una salida vía telefónica o similar para que en el caso de producirse fallo, hechos puntuales, colmatación del primer filtro, etc. da aviso al exterior para proceder a su corrección.The installation is governed by said system of control, which through information stored in it allow the total independence of the outside in its control, except in maintenance operations, being able to adjust throughout moment the temperature of the photovoltaic solar panels at maximum efficiency temperature. Preferably this system of control has an output via telephone or similar so that in the in case of failure, specific events, clogging of the first filter, etc. gives notice abroad to proceed to its correction.

Por último, decir que la instalación se sitúan diferentes válvulas de corte que permiten aislar diferentes partes o elementos del circuito para realizar, por ejemplo, tareas de mantenimiento, vaciado total de la instalación para evitar la producción de un deterioro en largos períodos de parada, etc. Además la instalación dispone de elementos de seguridad como las válvulas de seguridad, válvulas de purga de aire, etc. y de diversos medidores de las condiciones ambientales existentes en la zona, los cuales contribuirán a mejorar el sistema de control.Finally, say that the installation are located different shut-off valves that allow to isolate different parts or circuit elements to perform, for example, tasks of maintenance, total emptying of the installation to avoid production of deterioration in long periods of shutdown, etc. In addition the installation has security elements such as safety valves, air purge valves, etc. and of various meters of the existing environmental conditions in the area, which will contribute to improve the control system.
