光入射方位及功率判斷裝置及其應用Light incident azimuth and power judging device and application thereof

本發明是一種追蹤光入射方向的裝置,尤其是關於一種可以用於追蹤入射光方位及光輸出功率的裝置。The present invention is a device for tracking the direction of incidence of light, and more particularly to a device that can be used to track the direction of incident light and the power output of light.

太陽能是近幾年來被發現可持續使用的乾淨零污染的能源,豐富的太陽輻射能量,是取之不盡、用之不竭、無污染、容易於取得的自然能源。太陽能不需要任何的燃料來發電,其透過吸收太陽所發出的電磁波輻射轉換為可以被利用的電能,發電過程無噪音、不產生廢料和污染,因此是未來再生能源之主流發展之一。Solar energy is a clean, zero-pollution energy source that has been found to be sustainable in recent years. The abundant solar radiation energy is an inexhaustible, inexhaustible, non-polluting and easily accessible natural energy source. Solar energy does not require any fuel to generate electricity. It converts electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun into electricity that can be used. The power generation process is noise-free, produces no waste and pollution, and is therefore one of the mainstream developments of renewable energy in the future.

太陽能轉換裝置是一種模組化的成品,以非集光式(又稱平板型式之太陽能板,使用時通常以陣列型式排列)為例,非集光式太陽能板由工廠製造完成之後,一定的固定面積可以產生特定的電力輸出,所以使用者可以依據需求,串接或併接藉以獲得所需之電力(電壓、功率)輸出。另外,太陽能板之耐用度、可靠度及耐久性等特性非常良好、保養費用非常低廉,也是讓各國無不競相採用與開發此一技術之主要原因。The solar energy conversion device is a modular finished product, which is a non-light collecting type (also called a flat type solar panel, which is usually arranged in an array type when used), and a non-light collecting solar panel is manufactured by a factory, and a certain The fixed area can produce a specific power output, so the user can cascade or connect to obtain the required power (voltage, power) output according to the demand. In addition, the durability, reliability and durability of solar panels are very good, and the maintenance costs are very low. It is also the main reason why countries are competing to adopt and develop this technology.

雖然太陽能板具備前述諸多優點,惟太陽能與風力發電相若,電力之轉換來源之穩定性(太陽輻射、風之產生)並非人為可以控制,因此無法持續地全天候維持產生電力。若排除氣候、空氣品質、設置環境變異(遮蔭)等因素,固定安裝於特定角度、位置之太陽能板的光電轉換效率,取決於地球與太陽之間的角度關係。簡言之,由於地球之自轉與公轉的因素,安裝在地球上的某個特定點的太陽能板無法持續與太陽光入射角度維持直射的狀態,因此,太陽能板所能吸收的太陽光輻射隨著時間持續變異,無法於長時間都處於高效率之光電轉換狀態下。Although solar panels have many of the above advantages, solar energy is similar to wind power generation, and the stability of power conversion sources (solar radiation, wind generation) is not artificially controllable, so it is impossible to sustain power generation throughout the day. If the factors such as climate, air quality, and environmental variation (shading) are excluded, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar panels fixed at a specific angle and position depends on the angular relationship between the earth and the sun. In short, due to the rotation and revolution of the earth, the solar panels installed at a certain point on the earth cannot sustain the state of direct sunlight. Therefore, the solar radiation absorbed by the solar panels follows. The time continues to mutate and cannot be in a highly efficient photoelectric conversion state for a long time.

為了解決固定式之太陽能板的光電轉換效率受到地球自轉、公轉限制之情形,遂有許多的廠商及研究單位爭相推出可以追蹤太陽方位的一追光太陽能裝置,讓太陽能板能夠持續保持與太陽入射方向垂直,藉以提昇能量轉換效率。目前常見的追光太陽能裝置主要是利用一追光感應元件,該追光感應元件通常是架設在一機械旋轉座台上,該機械旋轉座台可以操空該追光感應元件接收光線的方位,藉此,透過機械旋轉座台之調整讓該追光感應元件持續追蹤太陽光之直射方向達到追光功能。In order to solve the situation that the photoelectric conversion efficiency of fixed solar panels is limited by the rotation and revolution of the earth, many manufacturers and research institutes are rushing to introduce a chasing solar device that can track the sun's position, so that the solar panels can continue to maintain the sun. The incident direction is vertical to improve energy conversion efficiency. At present, the common chasing solar device mainly utilizes a chasing sensing element, which is usually mounted on a mechanical rotating platform, and the mechanical rotating platform can operate the position of the chasing sensing element to receive light. Thereby, the tracking sensor element continuously tracks the direct direction of the sunlight to achieve the chasing function through the adjustment of the mechanical rotating platform.

然而,雖前述的追光太陽能裝置能夠達到追光的效能,但是其結構或使用方式卻有其缺陷。例如,前述的追光感應元件必須要利用機械旋轉座台才可以達到追光的功能,然由於該機械旋轉座台長期暴露在室外非常可能各種天候因素造成鏽蝕,因此增加整體系統的運作、維護成本。However, although the aforementioned chasing solar device can achieve the performance of chasing light, its structure or use has its drawbacks. For example, the aforementioned tracking sensor component must use the mechanical rotating platform to achieve the function of chasing light. However, since the mechanical rotating platform is exposed to the outside for a long time, it is very likely that various weather factors cause rust, thereby increasing the operation and maintenance of the overall system. cost.

為了解決既有之機械式追光感應元件維護成本高、使用不便等問題,本發明利用複數個固定安裝於不同方位角度的感應元件,以座標轉換(向量幾何空間)與光功率比較判斷之計算方式,推算光的入射方向及最大光輸出功率,解決既有技術需要複雜機械結構的缺點,達到降低成本及提昇使用便利性的目的。In order to solve the problems of high maintenance cost and inconvenient use of the existing mechanical chasing inductive element, the present invention utilizes a plurality of sensing elements fixedly mounted at different azimuth angles to calculate the coordinate conversion (vector geometric space) and the optical power comparison judgment.

請參考第一圖及第二圖,其為本發明之光入射方位及功率判斷裝置之較佳實施例,其包含一座體(10)、複數個光感應器(20)及一運算模組(30)。Please refer to the first figure and the second figure, which are preferred embodiments of the light incident orientation and power judging device of the present invention, comprising a body (10), a plurality of light sensors (20) and an operation module ( 30).

該座體(10)為一立體座體,其包含複數照射面係為非共平面,該座體(10)於白晝具太陽光線時,至少有一照射面接受入射太陽光之照射。由於每一照射面為非共平面,即兩兩相鄰的照射面之間存在一角度轉換關係,其中該角度轉換關係至少包含方位角及仰傾角關係,該角度轉換關係可以利用一轉置矩陣表示。該座體(10)之型式不限定,其可以為半球狀之座體、半球狀多面體、多角錐體、圓錐體、立體梯型等。本實施例之該座體(10)為一四邊平頂錐體,其包含一頂面以及四個側壁面,各側壁面分別與該頂面存在前述的角度轉換關係。The base body (10) is a three-dimensional seat body, and the plurality of illumination surfaces are non-coplanar, and the base body (10) receives at least one illumination surface to receive the incident sunlight when the white light has solar rays. Since each illumination surface is non-coplanar, that is, there is an angle conversion relationship between two adjacent illumination surfaces, wherein the angle conversion relationship includes at least an azimuth angle and a tilt angle relationship, and the angle conversion relationship can utilize a transposed matrix. Said. The shape of the seat body (10) is not limited, and may be a hemispherical seat body, a hemispherical polyhedron, a polygonal pyramid, a cone, a stereoscopic ladder type or the like. The seat body (10) of the embodiment is a four-sided flat-topped cone, which comprises a top surface and four side wall surfaces, and each of the side wall surfaces has an angular conversion relationship with the top surface.

各該光感應器(20)分別對應且固定設於該照射面表面,每一光感應器(20)於接受太陽光照射時產生一電訊號輸出至該運算模組(30),其中該電訊號包含入射太陽之光功率之資訊。本實施例包含五個光感應器(20)分別固定設於該頂面與四個側壁面,由於各光感應器(20)分別設於不同的照射面(側壁面、頂面),因此各光感應器(20)所接收太陽光的光功率與垂直面對入射方向時所能接收的一最大光輸出功率與前述的角度轉換關係有關。換言之,各光感應器(20)所處照射面與入射光線的夾角亦為影響各光感應器(20)所輸出的電訊號之光功率大小。Each of the light sensors (20) is correspondingly and fixedly disposed on the surface of the illumination surface, and each of the light sensors (20) generates an electrical signal output to the computing module (30) when receiving sunlight, wherein the wireless signal The number contains information about the power of the incident sun. In this embodiment, five light sensors (20) are respectively fixed on the top surface and the four side wall surfaces. Since the light sensors (20) are respectively disposed on different illumination surfaces (side wall surface, top surface), each The optical power received by the light sensor (20) and the maximum light output power that can be received when facing vertically in the incident direction are related to the aforementioned angular conversion relationship. In other words, the angle between the illuminated surface of each light sensor (20) and the incident light is also the amount of optical power that affects the electrical signal output by each light sensor (20).

該運算模組(30)由各光感應器(20)接收電訊號後,配合各光感應器(20)之角度轉換關係,以一比較計算手段即可以取得光線的直射方向。由於各光感應器(20)的角度轉換關係為已知,因此在白晝時間(有太陽光的狀況下)時,一特定入射角度之太陽光線可照射的兩個以上的該光感應器(20),該運算模組(30)就可以透過比較兩個以上的光感應器(20)所輸出的電訊號數值以及角度轉換關係得到最大光輸出功率與光入射方向。以本實施例為例,如第一圖所示,光線可能只照射到編號為T(水平,Top)、F(前面,Front)的光感應器(20),因此,該運算模組(30)可以藉由運算、比較編號T、F光感應器(20)之角度轉換關係及電訊號,即可獲得入射光線的最大光輸出功率及入射角度。The operation module (30) receives the electrical signals from the light sensors (20), and cooperates with the angle conversion relationship of the light sensors (20) to obtain the direct direction of the light by a comparative calculation means. Since the angle conversion relationship of each light sensor (20) is known, when the daylight time (in the case of sunlight), more than two of the light sensors (20) can be illuminated by a certain incident angle of sunlight. The operation module (30) can obtain the maximum light output power and the light incident direction by comparing the electrical signal values and the angle conversion relationship output by the two or more light sensors (20). Taking the embodiment as an example, as shown in the first figure, the light may only be irradiated to the light sensor (20) numbered T (horizontal, top), F (front, Front), and therefore, the operation module (30) The maximum light output power and incident angle of the incident light can be obtained by calculating and comparing the angle conversion relationship and the electrical signal of the numbered T and F light sensors (20).

為更詳盡說明透過角度轉換關係及光功率運算的過程,以本實施例為範例說明如后:首先將把入射光線照射本實施例之方位向量分為四個象限(I、II、III、IV),如第一圖之所示,其中,編號F、R(後面,Rear)、T的光感應器(20)於光線入射方向朝向第一象限(I)時具電訊號輸出,同理,編號F、L(左邊,Left)、T的光感應器(20)於光線入射方向朝向第二象限(II)時具電訊號輸出,光感應器(20)B、L、T於光線入射方向朝向第三象限(III)時具電訊號輸出,光感應器(20)B、R、T於光線入射方向朝向第四象限(IV)時具電訊號輸出。For a more detailed description of the process of translating the angle conversion relationship and the optical power operation, the present embodiment is described as an example. First, the orientation vector of the embodiment is divided into four quadrants (I, II, III, IV). As shown in the first figure, wherein the light sensors (20) of the numbers F, R (rear, Rear) and T have an electrical signal output when the light incident direction is toward the first quadrant (I), similarly, The light sensors (20) with numbers F, L (left, Left) and T have electrical signal output when the light incident direction is toward the second quadrant (II), and the light sensors (20) B, L, T are in the incident direction of the light. The electrical signal is outputted toward the third quadrant (III), and the optical sensors (20) B, R, T have electrical signals output when the light incident direction is toward the fourth quadrant (IV).

在實務過程中,太陽入射光之方向向量必位於四個象限(I~IV)之內,且可由各方位的該光感應器(20)輸出的電訊號之光功率資訊比較判斷入射光的方向(光源所在之象限):當PR >PL 、PF >PB 時,該運算模組(30)可判斷光源入射方向位於第一象限(I);當PL >PR 、PF >PB 時,其可判斷光源為第二象限(II);當PL >PR 、PB >PF 時,該運算模組(30)可判斷光源入射方向為於第三象限;當PR >PL 、PB >PF 時,該運算模組(30)可判斷光源入射方向位於第四象限(IV)。In the practice process, the direction vector of the incident light of the sun must be within four quadrants (I to IV), and the direction of the incident light can be determined by comparing the optical power information of the electrical signals output by the optical sensors (20) of each position. (the quadrant where the light source is located): When P R >P L , P F >P B , the operation module (30) can determine that the incident direction of the light source is in the first quadrant (I); when P L >P R , P F >P B , which can determine that the light source is in the second quadrant (II); when P L >P R , P B >P F , the computing module (30) can determine that the incident direction of the light source is in the third quadrant; When P R >P L and P B >P F , the operation module (30) can determine that the incident direction of the light source is in the fourth quadrant (IV).

若再以三度向量空間定義第一圖中之右方為X軸(+)、後方為Y軸(+)、上方為Z軸(+),並藉由座標轉換方法(即前述的轉置矩陣運算),推導各方位之光感應器(20)與入射光方向(太陽光之入射方向)間之方程式,並求得太陽一方位角、一高度角、該最大光功率輸出。If the third-order vector space is used to define the right side of the first graph as the X-axis (+), the rear-side is the Y-axis (+), and the upper is the Z-axis (+), and by the coordinate conversion method (ie, the aforementioned transpose) Matrix operation), deriving the equation between the light sensor (20) of each position and the incident light direction (the incident direction of the sunlight), and obtaining the solar azimuth angle, an elevation angle, and the maximum optical power output.

請參考第三圖,在本實施例之平頂四角錐狀之座體(10)中,其運算角度轉換關係可定義及運算如下列:Referring to the third figure, in the flat-topped quadrangular pyramid body (10) of the present embodiment, the operational angle conversion relationship can be defined and operated as follows:

(1)取得入射光方向向量: 位於水平頂部之光感應器(20)與光源(S)入射方向向量(x,y,z)之間的向量幾何空間座標如第三圖,其中入射方向向量(x,y,z)可表示如下: (1) Obtain the incident light direction vector: the vector geometric space coordinate between the light sensor (20) at the top of the horizontal and the incident direction vector (x, y, z) of the light source (S) is as shown in the third figure, where the incident direction vector (x, y, z) can be expressed as follows:

其中,φ為光源(S)入射方向與Z軸的夾角;α為入射方向向量(x,y,z)在XY平面上投影與X軸的夾角;r為光源(S)與原點(即光感應器T)之距離。Where φ is the angle between the incident direction of the light source (S) and the Z axis; α is the angle between the incident direction vector (x, y, z) projected on the XY plane and the X axis; r is the light source (S) and the origin (ie The distance of the light sensor T).

由第三圖可知,各方位之該光感應器(20)與光源(S)之入射方向之夾角均不相同,其中,該光感應器(20)T受到光源照射之光功率與垂直方向(Z軸)的餘弦值成正比,即與各光感應器平面法線夾角φ成正比。As can be seen from the third figure, the angle between the light sensor (20) and the incident direction of the light source (S) is different, wherein the light sensor (20) T is exposed to the light power and the vertical direction of the light source ( The cosine of the Z-axis is proportional to the angle φ of the plane normal of each light sensor.

(2)定義座標轉接公式: 請參考第四圖,當光源位置不變,使用座標轉換方法求得各個照射面的光感應器(20)之座標軸系統。第四圖為各平面座標旋轉方向θ之定義,以前方(F)該光感應器(20)為例,其座標軸轉換為水平之該光感應器(20)T繞Y軸向右旋轉θ角,其中θ為旋轉角度;經過座標軸轉換,即可獲得不同之光感應器(20)之安裝位置、角度關係,進而分析各光感應器(20)與入射光方向向量的關係。下列公式(2)~(4)為本實施例之X、Y、Z軸向的座標軸轉換公式及結果: (2) Define the coordinate transfer formula: Please refer to the fourth figure. When the position of the light source is unchanged, use the coordinate conversion method to obtain the coordinate axis system of the light sensor (20) of each illumination surface. The fourth figure shows the definition of the rotation direction θ of each plane coordinate. Taking the light sensor (20) in front (F) as an example, the coordinate axis is converted to horizontal, and the light sensor (20) T is rotated by θ angle around the Y axis. θ is the rotation angle; after the coordinate axis conversion, the installation position and angle relationship of different light sensors (20) can be obtained, and then the relationship between each light sensor (20) and the incident light direction vector is analyzed. The following formulas (2) to (4) are the coordinate axes conversion formulas and results of the X, Y, and Z axes of the present embodiment:

(i)繞X軸旋轉θ角度,可得新的座標軸x1 、y1 、z1 (i) Rotating the angle θ around the X axis to obtain a new coordinate axis x 1 , y 1 , z 1

(ii)繞Y軸旋轉θ角度,可得新的座標軸x2 、y2 、z2 (ii) Rotating the angle θ around the Y axis to obtain a new coordinate axis x 2 , y 2 , z 2

(iii)繞Z軸旋轉θ角度,可得新的座標軸x3 、y3 、z3 (iii) Rotating the angle θ around the Z axis to obtain a new coordinate axis x 3 , y 3 , z 3

(3)取得各光感應器與入射光之最大光輸出功率(P(3) Obtain the maximum optical output power of each light sensor and incident light (P) maxMax )之關係:Relationship:

本實施例包含五個置於座體(10)不同照射面的光感應器(20),透過使用以上推導之公式,可以分別取得各光感應器(20)安裝照射面與光源之間向量幾何空間的關係。對著X、Y、Z軸分別旋轉θ角,即可推導左(L)、右(R)光感應器(20)對光源向量幾何空間方程式:The embodiment comprises five light sensors (20) disposed on different illumination surfaces of the base body (10).
