Intelligent Control of Solar Power Inverter

Intelligent Control of Solar Power Inverter




Design of solar power inverters to be considered two key factors of efficiency and harmonic distortion. Efficiency can be divided into two parts: the solar energy efficiency and inverter efficiency. Inverter efficiency depends largely on the design of the use of external components, rather than the controller; and solar energy efficiency and controller to control the solar panel array. Each solar panel array, a maximum operating power depends largely on the array of temperature and light. MCU must control the solar panel array, output load, so that the work array maximum power. Since this is not a math-intensive algorithms, so you can use low-cost MCU to complete the task.



Currently, most solar power inverter solar panels can only come from one of the best position of the solar panels to optimize the overall efficiency. This optimization method has seriously hampered the efficiency of solar power generation systems. If the PV system in the non-optimal voltage and current level of operation, the system efficiency is very low, wasted a good opportunity to collect solar energy. In photovoltaic systems, solar panels are parallel by a number of groups formed after the series. As festive lighting, as if the series in any one of the battery failure, it will cause the entire battery pack failure. In addition, when there is partial shade or debris such as shelter PV systems, this situation may also occur.



In order to solve these problems, the current solar panels are integrated bypass diode, so that current can bypass the masked part of the failure of the battery plates. Start diode, which can be current re-routing, that is diverted to bypass the battery string on failure. As a result, not only a waste of electricity supply by the potential masking panels, but also reduces the total voltage of the battery pack. Select the panels based on the principle of the best operating point, inverters have to decide whether strings should be optimized for the affected battery voltage, or should not optimize the other affected the energy generated by the battery pack. In most cases, would choose to optimize the inverter does not affect the battery packs, and a corresponding reduction in the affected battery packs of the energy, or even completely close the affected battery packs. The result is that solar PV systems as long as there are 10% of the shelter, it will affect the amount of solar power in half. The main reason of this phenomenon is the current PV systems are not comparable with extremely sensitive solar cell structure to match. Therefore, we need to adopt a higher intelligence to develop solar energy technologies and products.



To this end, the United States National Semiconductor's new Solar Magic products, can be intelligent management of solar photovoltaic (PV) solar panels power, making solar energy management more intelligent and more efficient. A solution is the so-called "micro-inverters", in each cell board are installed inverter. However, the key factors affecting PV system is reliability, cost and efficiency. Advanced micro-optimizer technology can significantly improve the solar power industry, cost-effectiveness and productivity. With its deep expertise in solar energy, experience and a reliable core technology, National Semiconductor Solar Magic technology can monitor and optimize each cell board capacity and to improve the current flow in the battery plates. Solar Magic reflects the United States National Semiconductor in the mixed-signal and power management leader in the field of advanced algorithms. Through the use of Solar Magic technology, solar power generation system Ke Wanhui more than 50% loss due to transmission, or a shadow mask with the loss of generating capacity. Micro-optimizer will intelligently manage each cell board, so that they can be the best power point to run, even if the series within the battery pack failure of individual panels will not affect the overall efficiency of the system. National Semiconductor in 2009 introduced a new micro-optimizer will promote the development of solar photovoltaic technology, renewable energy play an important role.

IGBT or MOSFET

IGBT or MOSFET




In the solar energy conversion process, there are various kinds of advanced power devices can be used, such as MOSFET, bipolar junction transistors (BJT) and the IGBT. To achieve the best conversion efficiency and performance, choose the right inverter for solar power transistors challenging and very time-consuming.

Over the years studies have shown that, IGBT power devices can provide more than any other advantages, including a more current handling capability, with the voltage (rather than current) to facilitate realization of gate control, as well as an integrated package ultra-fast recovery diode achieve faster turn-off time. IGBT is a minority carrier device, its off-time depends on the minority carrier re-combination of speed, therefore, with the recent process technology and device structures to improve its switching characteristics have been significantly enhanced.



IGBT is basically have the structure of metal gate-oxide gate bipolar transistor (BJT). This design allows the gate IGBT can be the same as the MOSFET in order to replace the current to voltage control switch. As a BJT, IGBT's current handling capability higher than the MOSFET. At the same time, IGBT same applies BJT as a minority carrier device. This means that the speed of IGBT off by a handful of carriers to determine the composite rate of speed. In addition, IGBT's closing time and its collector - emitter saturation voltage (Vce (on)) is inversely proportional to.



If the IGBT has the same size and technology, a speed IGBT than the speed of a standard IGBT has a higher Vce (on). However, speeding the closure of IGBT Standard IGBT is much faster than the speed. Figure 2 shows this relationship by controlling the IGBT is a minority carrier recombination rate of the use of cycles in order to influence the closing time to achieve.



Generally speaking, due to a larger current IGBT (which is more than twice the MOSFET), so the cost of the program using IGBT than using low cost MOSFET. In addition to cost considerations, the device performance by the degree of power loss table, while the power loss can be divided into: conduction and switching categories. As a minority-carrier-based devices, under the high current, IGBT has a lower turn-on voltage, which means lower conduction losses. But the MOSFET switching speed faster than in IGBT switching losses so low. So for calling for lower switching frequencies and higher current applications, choose the IGBT is more suitable and has a more low-cost advantage. On the other hand, MOSFET have the ability to meet the high-frequency, low current applications, especially those of more than 100kHz switching frequency power inverter power module needs. Although the device cost point of view, MOSFET than in IGBT expensive, but its ability to deal with a higher switching frequency will simplify the magnetic design of the output filter will significantly reduce the size of the output inductor.



For these reasons, more manufacturers prefer therefore to a high level of energy in the power inverter used in IGBT. According to Microsemi company, the company's production of MOS8 IGBT in static and dynamic testing (to minimize the overall power loss) in the optimization of performance can be well suited to these applications. On the other hand, even if the cost of MOSFET is a major consideration, but for the introduction of a better program, it should re-examine the potential use of MOSFET, such as Microsemi's MOS7/MOS8 MOSFET with the leading features of the very suitable for the design of solar energy inverter.

The principle and structure of Solar Power Inverter

The principle and structure of Solar Power Inverter




Usually converted into DC to AC power the process is called rectification, phase-controlled rectifier is the most common AC - DC conversion process; while the DC into AC power to transform the process is called inverter, which is the reverse process of rectification . In the inverter circuit, in accordance with the nature of the load different inverter. And the power inverter is divided into active and passive inverter. If the exchange side of the circuit, on receiving the AC power to DC can be through the direct - the exchange of transformation, inverse becomes the AC power delivered to the same frequency AC power grid back up, called the active inverter. The corresponding device is called the active inverter to control the angle is greater than 90 ° phase-controlled rectifier is a common active inverter. And the DC can be transformed to the exchange of electrical energy directly to the non-load power supply circuit, known as passive inverter circuit, also known as converters.



Inverter types of inverter-excited, self-encouragement inverter, pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter. Reed inverter in which he need for external AC voltage source, to provide thyristor rectifier voltage. Excited mainly used in high-power inverter-grid situations; for less than 1MW photovoltaic power generation systems, mainly in inverter mode and self-motivation. And self-encouragement inverter does not require an external AC voltage source, rectifier voltage from the inverter part of the storage components (such as capacitors) to provide or to be off by increasing the rectifier valve (such as MOSFET or IGBT) of the resistance value to achieve. The output voltage is pulse modulated and self-motivation is known as pulse inverter. This cycle, by increasing the power inverter switching frequency of the pulse, to reduce the voltage and current harmonics content; harmonic content was proportional to the frequency and pulse switch. Currently, grid-connected inverter output There are two main control modes: voltage mode control mode and current-mode control mode. Voltage-control mode based on the principle of output voltage as the controlled quantity, the system output and the power grid voltage in phase with the frequency of the voltage signal, the entire system is equivalent to a small resistance controlled voltage source; current-mode control mode is the principle of to the output inductor current as the controlled target, the system output and the power grid voltage current in phase with the same frequency signal, the entire system is equivalent to a large resistance controlled current source.



At present, solar inverters have been a variety of topologies, the most common for single-phase half-bridge, full bridge, and Heric (Sunways patent) inverter, as well as for three-phase six-pulse bridge and the midpoint of pliers bit (NPC) inverter. A typical solar inverter framework is generally a four-switch full-bridge topology.



In essence, in order to maintain a low harmonic and power loss minimum, high-side IGBT inverter uses pulse-width modulation (PWM), low-side IGBT Zeyi 60Hz frequency conversion current direction. By allowing the use of high-side IGBT above 20kHz or 20kHz frequency and PWM modulation scheme 50/60Hz, output inductors L1 and L2 can be done at the instance of a very small, and still be able to efficiently filter the harmonic components. And standards with fast speed compared to planar devices, switching speed of 20kHz ultra-fast channel-type IGBT can provide the lowest total conduction losses and switching power loss. Similarly, for low-voltage side switching circuit, working in the standard 60Hz rate of IGBT can offer the lowest power loss.



The design of the switch technology has the following advantages: by allowing high-pressure side and low-side IGBT independently optimized to achieve very high efficiency; high-pressure side, with the package, there is no soft-recovery diode freewheeling time, thus eliminating unnecessary switching losses; low side IGBT's switching frequency is only 60Hz, so these IGBT conduction losses are the main factors; no cross-conduction, because any point in time switches have occurred in the right corner on the two devices (Q1 and Q4 or Q2 and Q3); there is no bus through this possibility, because the bridge will never be the same side of the IGBT switches in a complementary manner; jumper low-side IGBT of the same package, ultra-fast, soft recovery diodes are optimized to allow continued flow and reverse-recovery period The loss to a minimum.

The requirements needing for solar energy inverter

The requirements needing for solar energy inverter




Through the solar photovoltaic technology to convert solar radiation into electrical energy is now on the market the most effective is also the most potential for development of renewable energy technologies. Now, ordinary solar PV systems are composed of many closely linked to the composition of solar panels. The panels first division series, and then the series of different batteries in parallel together to form photovoltaic arrays.



At present, China photovoltaic power generation system is mainly DC system will soon be issued by the solar power to recharge the battery while the battery power directly to the load, such as the northwest region of China use more solar household lighting systems, as well as away from the grid for the microwave station power system are DC system. Such a system is simple, low cost, but because of the different load DC voltage (eg 12V, 24V, 48V, etc.), it is difficult to achieve the system standardization and interoperability, in particular electricity for civilian use, as most of the exchange of the load, to DC power photovoltaic power supply is difficult to enter the market as a commodity. PV grid will eventually run, and this must be a mature market model, the exchange of photovoltaic power generation system in the future will become the mainstream of photovoltaic power generation.



Solar Power Inverter is a power electronic circuits, solar panels can convert the DC voltage AC voltage to drive home appliances, lighting and electrical tools, communication load, the whole solar system, a critical component. Inverter has two basic functions: one is to complete the DC / AC current converter connected to the grid, on the other hand is to identify the best operating point in order to optimize the efficiency of solar photovoltaic systems. For a given solar radiation, temperature and battery type, solar photovoltaic systems have a unique corresponding optimal voltage and current, so that the largest photovoltaic system to produce energy. Therefore, in applications in solar power inverter must meet the following basic requirements:

1. Requires a high efficiency. As the current high prices of solar cells, in order to maximize the use of solar cells, to improve system efficiency, we must try to improve inverter efficiency.

2. Requires a higher reliability. Photovoltaic power generation system is currently used in remote areas, many power plants unattended and maintenance, which requires inverter circuit with a reasonable structure, rigorous selection of components and requested inverter with various protection features such as input DC reverse polarity protection, output short circuit protection exchange, thermal, overload protection and so on.

3. Require DC input voltage to adapt to a wide range of terminal voltage due to solar cells with the load and sunlight intensity changes, although the solar cell battery voltage plays an important role, but because of the battery voltage with the remaining battery capacity and internal resistance changes in volatility, especially when the aging battery terminal voltage when the change of its large range, such as the 12V battery, its terminal voltage can be varied between 10V ~ 16V, which requires to be in a larger inverter DC input voltage assurance that the work, and to ensure that the exchange of the output voltage stability.

4. In the medium and large-capacity photovoltaic power generation system, the inverter power output should be less distortion sine wave. This is because in the middle and large-capacity systems, the use of a square wave power supply, the output will contain more harmonics, high harmonics will result in additional losses, many of photovoltaic power generation system load for the communications or instrumentation These devices have high requirements for power quality, among others, large-capacity photovoltaic power generation system and network run-time, in order to avoid contamination with the public electricity grid, also called sine-wave inverter output current.

The development and implementation of efficient algorithms




The higher the DSP performance, then it can run within a certain period of time greater the number of algorithm cycles, and be able to handle more complex algorithms. Blackfin BF50x outstanding performance and a sufficiently large on-chip memory (4 MB executable flash memory), allowing designers to use more sophisticated algorithms to achieve a more robust system capabilities and more precision.



For example, for solar power inverter applications, the inverters can be a complex algorithm to the fluctuating DC output is converted to "clean" current, as well as residential and urban photovoltaic (PV) cells produce an array into the commercial power grid and / or local grid current to adjust. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm can extract the maximum individual and / or series of energy generated by solar panels, designers typically use a variety of MPPT algorithm to adapt to a variety of environmental factors. Blackfin BF50x processor, the excellent signal processing performance adequate to deal with the complexity of the MPPT algorithm, to ensure the realization of ultra-high efficiency power converter applications extract, while the prices are pretty, low-power processors and the MCU is difficult to competence.



For motor control applications, the ability to handle complex algorithms to ensure that the system behavior according to changes in the implementation of real-time dynamic control in order to obtain a more stable operating characteristics and lower power consumption. The use of a sensorless Field Oriented Control (FOC) algorithm, then the permanent magnet synchronous motors can be (PMSM) the implementation of variable speed control, thereby enhancing energy efficiency, and the motor without the need to speed and position sensor (sensorless vector control). Based on the Blackfin BF50x designed to take advantage of advanced modeling algorithms that can accurately determine the rotor position and speed, and without the use of position / speed sensor, so that the system smaller, lower cost, reliability is even higher.

Photovoltaic Industry will develope rapidly these two years




2010 PV market: wind prevailing over the west through the study of national policy, the economic costs of PV, we found that when the solar share of GDP, subsidies to achieve extreme of 15:00, photovoltaic subsidy policy prone to shift. Veteran PV market, Germany, and Spain are close to this limit, we judge its hard to pick up within two years. In contrast, the United States, Japan, China and three photovoltaic subsidy is far away from this limit, the Government has a positive attitude, photovoltaic market is expected to increase substantially this year. Especially the Chinese market, in the Golden Sun works to accelerate and renewable energy additional context of a large number of surplus, an increase is expected to reach a more than doubled the level of demand to reach 550MW.

Smart Grid: meter and secondary equipment market, the first to benefit

Smart Grid: meter and secondary equipment market, the first to benefit




Grid due to an increase of "smart" word further deepened with the electronic information industry links to the information industry will bring new opportunity for development. According to experts, the main features include smart grid self-healing, compatible, interactive, optimization, integration, allowing different forms of access to electricity and so on. Its core meaning is to achieve power of information technology, digitization, automation, and interactive technology. The realization of these features requires electronic and information technology support.



Power automation equipment is one of the most critical network equipment, in the smart grid concept, primary equipment and secondary equipment, the difference is slowly reduced, the domestic power equipment companies thus have an unprecedented opportunity.



On the semiconductor industry, power grids, intelligent application of the integrated circuit also put forward higher requirements for Wang Zhihua, deputy director of Institute of Microelectronics, Tsinghua University, said that the smart grid systems to be able to sense overload and can allocate the power to prevent the system failure or to minimize the impact of failure. Smart Grid to use digital technology, including the use of intelligent power consumption meter testing, through the network of sensors and computer system control burst generators, according to consumer demand, production of electrical energy, thereby enhancing transmission efficiency. Smart grid to allow a distributed alternative energy into the grid, which also integrated circuits and semiconductor power devices to provide a market opportunity. Such as wind power, rectifier devices will need to convert alternating current instability in DC, and then convert the power inverter AC power grid can be accepted after the delivery to the power grid to go. The formation of the solar cell power generation DC, the same has to go through before it can convert the power inverter grid. Both the rectifier or the inverter, the core of all power semiconductor devices. The distributed energy in the input grid in the process of measurement will have to rely on integrated circuits.



The reporters found, IT giants and semiconductor makers have been an active part in the smart power grid. Intel China's Ministry of Industry Co-operation and high-end solutions for enterprise customers in China Region Manager, Mao Halinen, told reporters that Intel has worked with the State Grid Corporation has established a joint laboratory, integrated high-performance computing and embedded technology, using Intel-based server, network modeling and simulation, to achieve automation of network isolation and power stations.

Experts believe that, from the power plant to the grid, to the substation, to the user, through the Intelligent Gateway constitute the smart grid will form a value chain. The observation of the current development trend, smart meters and the second device will be the value chain in this part of the first to benefit in the U.S. and some European countries, smart meter configuration is referred to the first step of development. It is reported that China also plans to next year on 40 million smart meters, while the national power grid has also recently begun tendering for smart meters. Freescale, NXP and other semiconductor companies have launched this year, a number of new smart metering products and solutions to enhance the promotion of this market.

Induction heating power supply and its technical (part 2)

Induction heating power supply and its technical (part 2)

From the circuit point of view induction heating power supply of large capacity, high-capacity technology can be divided into two categories: one category is the device series and parallel; the other is multi-bridge power supply or more series and parallel. In the device and parallel manner, we must seriously address the issue of serial devices and parallel devices are pressure mean flow problem, due to the device manufacturing process and discrete parameters, limiting the device's string, the number of parallel and series and parallel the number of The more the worse the reliability. More than one power supply and parallel technology is in the device and parallel technology to make further capacity on the basis of an effective means by means of a reliable power supply and parallel technologies, stand-alone capacity of appropriate cases, simply by series and parallel operation mode to be high-capacity devices, each device is a stand-alone unit (or a module).

Induction Heating Power Inverter main shunt inverter and series inverter, series inverter can be equivalent to a low-impedance voltage source, when the two voltage sources in parallel with each other between the amplitude, phase and frequency fluctuations will result in different or large circulation, as well as inverter device's current serious imbalance, therefore, the existence and machine inverter series expansion difficult; while the parallel power inverter, inverter DC input large reactor could serve as the parallel inverter link between the current buffer, allowing input AG / DG or DG / DG links have enough time to correct the DC bias current to achieve multi-machine parallel expansion, transistor-based ultra-audio, high-frequency current Multi-inverter with parallel structures, parallel inverter easy modular, high capacity is one of the main reasons.

Induction heating power supply wide range of load objects, while the power inverter and the load is an organic whole, and generally use a matching transformer to connect the power and load sensors, high-frequency, VHF power supply to the matching transformer windings from the magnetic material structure is further optimized and improved at the same time, from the circuit topology can be replaced by two with three passive components, passive components, to cancel the transformer to achieve high efficiency, low-cost match.

Induction heating power supplies, thyristor, transistor and tube-type in the country can produce. Thyristor Power has produced for many years. Present IGBT power because of their advantages over the more users adopt. MOSFET power supply, high efficiency, low voltage, but higher prices are gradually replacing the vacuum tube high frequency power supply. Portable mini-high-frequency power supply due to cheap, convenient and widely used in China, and even access to foreign markets.

Ultra-high frequency power (27.12MHz), used to rely on imports, and now there are at least two companies have domestic production to solve the blades, saws and other special technology needs.

Induction Heat Treatment Production Line Automation with the degree of control and power the high reliability requirements increase, we must strengthen the heating process complete device development. At the same time intelligent control of induction heating system, the forward direction, with a computer, intelligent interface, remote control and automatic fault diagnosis and other control performance of induction heating power supply system is becoming the next generation of development goals.

Induction heating power supply and its technical (part 1)

Induction heating power supply and its technical (part 1)




Thyristor IF in power in power generator to replace the machine. The 20th century, the early 90s, the domestic thyristor power plants have sprouted and flourished everywhere, through the survival of the fittest competition, and now production plant has tended to stabilize. Thyristor Power now has the power to the IGBT transistor development, and tubes will be developed into a high-frequency power MOSFET transistors, transistors ultra-portable audio, high-frequency power supply market is extremely competitive, its future who will also be of high quality, technological level Gao, who will be able to gain a firm foothold.



Domestic intermediate frequency power supply are currently used parallel resonant power inverter structure. Therefore, greater capacity in research and development of parallel inverter frequency power supply at the same time, the development of simple structure, easy-to-frequent start of the series inverter frequency power supply is the area of medium-frequency induction heating device problems to be solved, especially in the melting, casting application , the series inverter easy to achieve full operating conditions constant power output (t help reduce the power consumption) and a Multi-load power distribution control, more worthy of popularization.



In the ultra-Audio (10 ~ 100kHz) within its own thyristor switching characteristics due to parameters such as restrictions to the development of the power of the band brings a great deal of technical difficulty. Although 80 years of Zhejiang University multiplier circuit using thyristor developed a 50kW / 50kHz ultra-audio power supply, was developed using the time division circuit of thyristor super-30kHz audio power, but because of the dual-resonant circuit multiplier circuit coupled to the load was non-linear, time-varying heat load parameters and parameter matching resonant circuit debugging very complex, and time division circuit to control and main circuit structure of complex, low utilization rate of power inverter control, it has not been well popularized.



70 to 80 early, it will be integrated in modern semiconductor micro-processing technology combined with the power semiconductor technology, have developed a large number of full-controlled power electronic semiconductor devices (GTR, MOSFET, SIT, SITH, and MCT, etc.), for all solid-state super-audio , high-frequency power supply development has laid a solid foundation.



In the high-frequency (100kHz and above) band, is currently abroad, is in the power supply from the traditional tube-based all solid-state power supply to the transistor transition period. Japan, some companies use SIT, the power level of 80 reached late 1000kW, 200kHz, 400kW, 400kHz.



In Europe and the United States, due to the presence of high-state SIT loss (SIT working in non-saturated zone) and other defects to high-frequency MOSFET-based power devices. With MOSFET power devices and modular, high capacity technology, MOSFET high-frequency induction heating power supply capacity has been rapid development. Spain's current-mode MOSFET using induction heating power supply manufacturers, up to 600kW, 400kHz, Germany, developed in 1989, current-mode MOSFET Induction Heating Power Supply, up to 480kW, 50 ~ 200kHz, Belgium I nductoEiphiac produced by current-mode MOSFET Induction Heating Power Supply levels can be up to 1000kW, 15 ~ 600kHz. Zhejiang University in the 90s developed 20kW, 300kHz MOSFET high-frequency power supply, has been successfully applied to the surface heat treatment of small tools and aircraft turbine blade thermal stress assessment.



At present, the induction heating power supply in the medium frequency band, used mainly thyristor, VHF band, used mainly IGBT, while in high-frequency band, due to the presence of high conduction losses SIT and other defects, a major international development MOSFET power supply. Although the use of induction heating power resonant inverter will help to achieve soft-switching power devices, but the induction heating power supply is usually larger on the power devices, passive components, cables, wiring, grounding and shielding, etc. are a number of special requirements. Therefore, to achieve high-frequency induction heating power supply of basic technology for many applications still need to be further explored, especially in the new high-frequency high-power devices (such as the MCT, IGBT power devices, and SIT, etc.) come out, will further promote the development of the high-frequency induction heating power supply.

The difficulties to popularise micro-inverter and micro- converter and its business opportunities

The difficulties to popularise micro-inverter and micro- converter and its business opportunities




The challenge is cost, conversion efficiency and reliability. Judging from the current price of view, the current power inverter for 60 cents / W, while the micro-inverter to one U.S. dollars / W. If we can achieve the same level below, we hope to achieve universal access. In the inverter part of the conversion efficiency, the goal is to achieve with existing inverter considerable 98%. The reliability of solar cells and modules will have to very, reaching a level able to work for 20 years.



If these difficulties can be resolved, shipments will be expected to exceed the current inverter. ISuppli forecasts the United States, the original inverter shipments in 2012 of 130 million to 1.4 million units, while the micro-and micro-inverter converter total shipments in 2012 will reach about 800 million units. Currently the U.S. has been the risk of micro-enterprises and other enterprises and micro-inverter converter start development.



In the current inverter, power semiconductors for power conversion feature is particularly important. In the future, apart from power semiconductors, the power output of each module to optimize the control IC, as well as the delivery status of each module the importance of communications IC will also be increasing. The control IC and communications IC is our area of expertise.



In addition, in the future will also promote collaboration with the smart grid. We have also committed to smart grid areas, to make use of experiences in this regard.



We had also engaged in solar cell chip business. As a result, the use of existing solar inverter control IC, access to about 30% of the share. However, there was just one of many applications as solar cells.



May 2009 be configured to engineers responsible for solar cells established a working solar cell system. It also hired experts in solar cell technology. This is because the technology with customers to solve the problem, is very important. But also helps to understand the characteristics of a variety of solar cells on the difference. In the solar cell outside the field of technology experts, we have not yet configured.

Reform and application of solar cell modules

Reform and application of solar cell modules




U.S. solar cell market conditions



Currently, California is the U.S. demand for solar cells driving force. The state's 2009 annual import is about 350MW, equivalent to half of the entire United States. However, the next 2 ~ 3 years, the state's import volume growth is likely to decline. In 2009 increased 150% over the previous year, while in 2010 there is expected to be slow, with only a one-year increase of 75%. In addition, in 2011, is expected to further decline, only a 10% increase over the previous year. Under its influence, the overall U.S. import volume growth of solar cells will also be 2 ~ 3 years showed a downward trend.



Reform of solar cell modules



Originally multiple solar battery module in series, another link with the power inverter. Therefore, there is sunshine if there is a result of the uneven and unequal characteristics lead to decline in power output module, the overall output power can greatly reduce the problem.



In order to solve this problem, each solar cell modules in the future may be equipped with inverter and converter. It's called "micro-inverters" and "micro-converter." This can be achieved by each module to optimize the output power, making the overall output power to maximize. In addition, the combination of words and communication functions can also be used to monitor the status of each module, to detect faulty modules.



Application of solar cell modules



Micro-inverter is equipped with all of the various modules available on the function of the inverter. In other words, from the optimization of output power to the DC-AC conversion by the module to carry out. The output power from the module exchanges can be directly incorporated into the grid. As the construction easy, so the installation of residential and commercial facilities, businesses should there is a demand.



Micro-converter output power of each module optimization and DC-DC converter, and the remaining DC-AC converter is set by the other inverter to complete. Micro-converter positioned in the existing inverter and between the micro-inverter. As the solar cell module output power of DC, so it can generate electricity directly to the DC state be used to charge batteries. No electricity area of wireless communication base stations, which do not access to network facilities, there is demand for an independent.



In addition, there may also be a large demand for solar power stations. How do large-scale solar power plants exist a huge number of solar cell modules to find fault module problem. The chip is equipped with control and communication micro-converter will help to solve this problem. As the micro-inverter is higher than the price of micro-converter, it is difficult to import large-scale solar power stations.

National Semiconductor distributed MPPT to improve the efficiency of solar PV system

National Semiconductor distributed MPPT to improve the efficiency of solar PV system




This paper analyzes the solar photovoltaic system, solar panels as part of the electricity generated by the shielding and the problem of declining capacity, and introduced the board level in the battery using a distributed maximum power point tracking system (MPPT) advantages, but also on the use of technology in all SolarMagic kinds of case study results were discussed.



Solar energy is the most promising renewable energy sources. Since the introduction of incentive policies and traditions of the impact of rising electricity costs, more and more families are turning to solar energy, and the roof-mounted photovoltaic (PV) systems. PV systems at current prices, the user typically 7-8 years to get return on investment. Government incentives and the service life of PV system must be able to continue for 20 years or older. Solar PV systems return on investment depends on the annual capacity of the system, so users need to PV system must have efficient, reliable and easy maintenance features to get maximum generating capacity.



Today, many users who install solar PV systems have been realized in part or intermittent shelter will affect the system's generating capacity.



Part of the shadow mask of the solar PV systems:



When the trees, chimneys or other objects blocking the view projection of the shadow of PV systems, they will cause the system to result in a "mismatch" problem. Even if the PV system has only been obscured by the shadow of a little bit of generating capacity will lead to sharp decline. Part of the shelter system due to mismatch of the actual impact of electricity generation through a simple formula is difficult to obtain. Affect the system capacity because of many factors, including the internal battery module interconnects, module orientation, photovoltaic cells series-parallel connection between the two groups of issues and power inverter configurations. Photovoltaic modules interconnected by a number of battery strings formed, each battery string is called a "group out." Column for each group by a bypass diode to protect, so that one or more of the battery is obscured or damage cause the entire battery string were damaged because of overheating. The battery packs in series or in parallel columns can make solar panels have a relatively high voltage or current.



Photovoltaic arrays together by a series of photovoltaic modules by parallel composition. Each PV module string must be less than the maximum voltage inverter maximum input voltage rating.



When the PV system was partially obscured when the battery has not been sheltered in the current flowing through the masked part of the bypass diode.



When the PV array be obscured The occurrence of such situation, we will generate an electrical VP has more than one peak curve. Figure 1 shows the maximum power point with a centralized tracking system (MPPT) function of the standard grid configuration, in which a group of columns two panels have been obscured. Centralized MPPT DC voltage can not be set, so could not make out the output power of the two groups have reached maximum. The high DC voltage points (M1), MPPT so that the column is not obscured group reached the maximum output power. In the low DC voltage point (M2), MPPT group would shadowing the column reaches the maximum output power: Bypass diodes to bypass the shielding panels, this group is not shielded column panels will provide the full amount of current. MPP may result in multiple arrays to focus the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) to configure the additional losses as the maximum power point tracking device may get the wrong message to stop in the local maximum point, and stability characteristics of the times that have advantages of VP.
