Definitions
- the present invention falls within the technology of optical measuring equipment or instruments.
- This equipment refers to a portable device for the spectral and field characterization of the reflection coefficients of flat mirrors or with a certain curvature, whether these heliostat mirrors, Stirling discs, FresneL.etc, all of them used in collectors to obtain solar thermal energy
- This equipment includes all the necessary components to carry out this measurement, including the processing of the data and its sending to a computer for storage.
- thermoelectric solar energy produces electricity with a conventional thermoelectric cycle that requires the heating of a high temperature fluid.
- thermoelectric cycle In these systems it is required to maximize the concentration of solar energy at the point or points of absorption of the same, through the use of mirrors that can be completely flat, with some spherical curvature, parabolic or parabolic trough depending on the technologies of the plants solar thermoelectric
- the value of the reflectivity coefficient of the mirrors installed in these systems plays a very important role in the performance of thermoelectric solar power generation plants.
- the knowledge of these reflectivity values allows, together with the information of the environmental conditions of the area and other technical data of the plants, to make a forecast of the power that will be generated in the near future to correctly manage the energy resources by part of the companies.
- a reflectometer For the operation and maintenance of electrical energy production facilities, due to the large number of mirrors installed, it is convenient to have a team that allows the reflectivity characterization of each Mirror quickly, conveniently and easily. A device that makes such a measurement is called a reflectometer.
- the equipment Given the optical characteristics of the solar energy absorbing elements included in these plants (maximum energy absorption and minimum energy losses, which determines dependencies on the optical parameters with the wavelength), the equipment must provide mirror measurements depending on the wavelength.
- the equipment must provide with precision the measurement of extreme reflection values, close to the unit, generally in unfavorable environmental conditions since the ambient light will usually be of high intensity even exceeding, in some cases, the signal itself to size. To this is added the requirement of very high precision in the measurements, essential in solar thermal technology to maintain efficiency in electricity production plants.
- the reflection in the mirrors can be two characters, diffuse and specular. Diffuse reflection is omnidirectional, unlike the specular reflection in which the beam is reflected at a reflection angle equal to the angle of incidence. Due to the dirt that is deposited on the surface of the mirrors in the plant, the reflection of sunlight will have diffuse and specular components, being specular reflection only useful from the point of view of power generation, since it is the only one that It will concentrate on the absorber element. Therefore, the team must minimize the contribution of diffuse reflection on the measurement of the reflection coefficient of the mirrors.
- the equipment must have the ability to correctly measure the set of types of mirrors commonly used in the plants. Specifically, it should be able to correctly measure flat mirrors, with some spherical curvature, parabolic and parabolic troughs of different thicknesses without the need for adjustments in the equipment.
- a broad-spectrum light source and a variable filter element are used to sequentially select different wavelengths, such as a mobile diffraction network followed by a narrow slit. This option allows you to vary the wavelength virtually continuously, but in return it is a more complex and delicate system and with a low dynamic range of measurement, since the input light power achieved is very low.
- classic equipment does not minimize the contribution of diffuse reflection; In fact, in some cases it is of interest to collect all the diffused light and integrating spheres are implemented in detection.
- US 5815254 describes a spectrophotometer device that can work in transmission measurement mode and reflection measurement mode. It uses a source of white, halogen or Xe light, optical fibers to carry the illumination beam of the sample on the surface of the sample, and a spectral analysis based on diffraction network and a line of detectors.
- US Patent 3862804 describes a double beam reflectometer equipment with switched mirror to include in each measurement the correction with the measurement of a pattern, and integrating sphere to include diffused light in the reflection measurement.
- the system uses white light, monochromator to make the selection of wavelengths, illumination with collimated beams and integrating sphere in the detection which means that all the diffused light is collected and measured in the detection.
- US patent 4687329 describes a spectrophotometer device that uses a wide spectrum source, in this case ultraviolet, and several filters in fixed positions to perform a spectral measurement at a certain number of discrete points.
- the present invention takes into account the specific characteristics of the problem indicated above, to obtain a portable, robust, easy-to-use device, with rapid measurement, sensitivity and dynamic range, with sufficient tolerance in curvature and thickness of the mirror to be measured and that minimizes the contribution of diffuse reflection in measure.
- the equipment measures the mirror reflection coefficient of mirrors at different wavelengths, determined by LED light emitting diodes.
- the mirrors object of characterization can be flat or curved, and can be mirrors of first or second face with different thicknesses.
- Each measurement wavelength constitutes an optical reflectance measurement channel in the equipment.
- the device For each optical reflectance measurement channel, the device performs two measurements, a reference measurement on a percentage of the light emitted by the LED and a direct measurement of the light reflected specularly by the mirror.
- the equipment performs simultaneous reference and direct measurement in each optical measuring channel to adequately correct the variations in the emission power of the LED of said channel.
- the number of optical channels can be variable, with at least one and covering the desired spectral range with commercial LEDs in the near-infrared ultraviolet range. With the usual requirements for the spectral characterization of a solar thermal energy production facility, it may be sufficient to have about five measurement wavelengths.
- the angle of incidence of the light beam from the LED and the angle of collection of the light beam reflected by the mirror is the same, to ensure the measurement of specular reflection.
- the size of the area illuminated on the mirror determines the amount of diffused light that can be introduced in the reflectance measurement. To minimize this amount of unwanted diffused light, the area illuminated on the mirror should be as small as possible. To do this, the numerical opening of the lighting beam from the LED is limited, by means of a diaphragm of certain diameter and length placed at the LED output and oriented on the optical axis of the system to ensure the angle of incidence of the light beam required on the mirror.
- the beam reflected by the mirror in specular reflection is collected by a lens, which focuses the beam on a detector for direct measurement of the light reflected specularly by the mirror.
- This lens and detector system are oriented in the optical axis of the system to ensure the angle of collection of the beam of light in specular reflection.
- the size of the lens in relation to the size of the beam at that point determines the tolerance of the system against the curvature of the mirror and against the position of the mirrored surface with respect to the measuring equipment determined by the thickness of the glass that protects the mirrored face .
- the lens size is not larger than the size of the beam at that point, the conditions of mirror curvature or mirror thickness for the correct measurement would be unique and variations thereof would cause not the entire beam of light reflected specularly by the mirror it was picked up by the lens and reached the detector, giving rise to error of the reflectance measurement.
- a lens size that is twice the size of the beam at that point may be sufficient.
- the combination of the optical parameters of the numerical aperture of the illumination beam, lens size and lens focus determine the relative positions of the LED, mirror, lens and detector assembly and therefore the size of the equipment.
- 15mm maximum focal lens and half inch maximum diameter is desirable.
- the acquisition system In order to obtain a measurement with high sensitivity, which allows to resolve with precision values of the reflection coefficients very close to the unit, it is necessary that the acquisition system has a sufficiently large signal to noise ratio.
- the background optical signal comes mainly from ambient sunlight, that is, it is a high intensity signal, it is essential to perform some type of treatment to that signal that allows the signal to noise ratio to be high.
- the most indicated in this case is the signal processing through the application of some extraction algorithm such as synchronous detection or lock-in.
- it is necessary that the signal to be measured can be easily distinguished from the noise background, something that is usually achieved by applying some type of modulation to it.
- Another of the essential characteristics in such a device is the possibility of processing and exporting data in a comfortable and flexible way, which can be stored in the way that is considered most convenient. This It can be solved by wireless communication with a conventional network protocol, by conventional USB port cable connection or also by using conventional removable memory equipment.
- the general scheme of the measuring device is as follows:
- LEDs which cover the range of wavelengths in which mirrors want to be characterized. In a preferred embodiment, one LED would be used for each wavelength.
- a circuit that performs the functions of modulation of the LED sources and of the detection and processing of the signals of interest, which can be synchronous detection (lock-in) analog or digital, to extract the signal from the possible background of optical noise and environmental electric
- a central system of data processing and control of the equipment which can be an external computer or a system integrated in the equipment itself, such as a microcontroller. This system controls the overall operation of the system, selecting the electronic components corresponding to the channel used at all times and governing internal and external communications.
- a user interface system which includes a screen and the necessary buttons for operating the equipment.
- a housing that provides adequate insulation of the electronic and optical components of the system, allows it to be transported easily and easily and repetitively coupled to the mirrors to be measured.
- the software to be installed in the equipment, necessary to carry out the communication with it and the subsequent processing of the information acquired, obtaining the reflection coefficient values for each of the wavelengths from the relationship between direct signal and reference signal prior calibration by standard.
- the software also provides global reflectance values by weighing the values obtained with the corresponding weight of the wavelengths in the solar spectrum.
- One of the advantages and advances provided by the invention is the fact that the system is capable of performing reflectance measurements of the mirrors with ambient and field light, without the need for special conditions of darkness or protection.
- Another of the advantages and advances provided by the invention is the fact that the system is capable of characterizing mirrors of different curvatures and different thicknesses with a high tolerance in these parameters, without the need to make any adjustments to the equipment.

- One of these resistors can be a digital potentiometer whose value can be controlled via software, which allows adjusting the gain of each channel at any time using the digital outputs (20) of the analog / digital conversion system (17).
- the frequency filtering is performed by synchronous detection (lock-in) in the signal detection and treatment system (12).
