Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of photovoltaic technologies, and in particular relate to a method and an apparatus for determining an operating state of a photovoltaic array, a device and a storage medium.
An output current of a photovoltaic module may be reduced during actual operation of a photovoltaic station due to problems such as partial shade shielding, serious dust accumulation in some areas, or failure of some photovoltaic assemblies, which may cause a significant mismatch of an output current of a photovoltaic string, and thus bringing power generation loss to the photovoltaic station.
In the related art, the temperature of the photovoltaic module may be too high or too low due to a failure of a photovoltaic module, such that a color of the failed photovoltaic module in an infrared image is different from those of other normal photovoltaic assemblies. Therefore, images of the photovoltaic assemblies may be acquired with an infrared image acquisition device equipped on a drone, and the operating state of a photovoltaic module in a photovoltaic array may be determined based on the acquired infrared images.
However, the acquired infrared images can be easily affected by environmental factors of the station, such as the ambient temperature of the station, such that the discrimination between the failed photovoltaic module and the normal photovoltaic module in the infrared image is low, and thus the accuracy of determining the operating state of the photovoltaic array is low.

In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the implementations of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings.
The term “a plurality of” mentioned herein means two or more, and the term “and/or” describes an association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there may be three types of relationships. For example, A and/or B may indicate three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character “/” generally indicates that the contextual associated objects are in an “or” relationship.
When a photovoltaic module fails, there may be two situations. One situation is that the photovoltaic module is damaged or the photovoltaic module is shielded, which causes the photovoltaic module temperature to rise. Another situation is that the photovoltaic module is short-circuited due to a bypass diode, i.e., the photovoltaic module does not operate, which causes that the photovoltaic module temperature is low. Due to the difference in temperature between a normal photovoltaic module and a failed photovoltaic module, the related arts provide a method for determining an operating state of a photovoltaic module. Photovoltaic assemblies in a photovoltaic station are inspected with a drone equipped with an infrared image acquisition device. In this method, the operating state of the photovoltaic module is determined based on the acquired infrared images.
Regarding the method in the related arts, since the infrared image is greatly affected by temperature, when the ambient temperature of the photovoltaic station is high or low, it may not be able to distinguish between a normal photovoltaic module and a failed photovoltaic module, resulting in missed or false alarms, which makes the accuracy of determining the operating state of the photovoltaic module relatively low.
In order to solve the above problem, a method for determining an operating state of a photovoltaic array is provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to
The photovoltaic array 101 is a photovoltaic power generation system formed by a plurality of photovoltaic strings in parallel, and refers to a set of all photovoltaic strings connected to a single combiner. An actual photovoltaic station includes a plurality of photovoltaic arrays 101. A current output by each photovoltaic string in the photovoltaic array 101 is combined by the combiner and then transmitted to an inverter. Usually, there are 8-16 photovoltaic strings in parallel in a photovoltaic array, and 24 photovoltaic assemblies in series in each photovoltaic string. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the photovoltaic array 101 may be provided with a sensor that acquires operating state data of the photovoltaic array, such as a current sensor and a current transformer that acquire an output current of the photovoltaic string, and may send the acquired output current value to the monitoring platform 102.
The photovoltaic array 101 and the monitoring platform 102 are connected through a wired or wireless network.
The monitoring platform 102 is a computer device with functions such as storing a present output current value sent by the photovoltaic array 101, processing the data, and generating alarm records. The computer device may be a server, a server cluster composed of several servers, or a cloud server. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the monitoring platform 102 may acquire a present output current value sent by the photovoltaic array 101, input the present output current value to a pre-trained abnormality score predicting model, output a present abnormality score corresponding to the present output current value, and compare the present abnormality score with a predetermined target abnormality score, so as to determine an operating state of the photovoltaic array. Optionally, the monitoring platform 102 may also store the acquired output current value in a database, so as to subsequently continuously train the abnormality score predicting model based on the output current value. In a possible implementation, upon determining that an abnormal photovoltaic string exists in the photovoltaic array, the monitoring platform 102 may generate an alarm record, so that the operation and maintenance personnel may learn the operating state of the photovoltaic array in time, and may solve the abnormal operating state problem of the photovoltaic string in time when there is a failure.
For ease of description, in the following method embodiments, the monitoring platform 102 being a computer device is merely taken as an example for introduction and illustration.
Refer to
In step 201, present output current values of photovoltaic strings included in a photovoltaic array are acquired, wherein the photovoltaic array includes at least two photovoltaic strings in parallel.
Since the photovoltaic array is a photovoltaic power generation system formed by a plurality of photovoltaic strings in parallel, determining the operating state of the photovoltaic array is to determine the operating state of each photovoltaic string. Therefore, in a possible implementation, the acquired present output current values include the present output current value corresponding to each photovoltaic string.
As to the present output current value of the photovoltaic string, an induction coil may be adopted to detect the present output current of the photovoltaic string and may send the acquired present output current value to the computer device. Each photovoltaic string corresponds to a present output current value. The number of present output current values at a same sampling moment depends on the number of photovoltaic strings included in a photovoltaic array. For example, if a photovoltaic array includes 8 photovoltaic strings, the present output current values corresponding to the same sampling moment may include: I1, I2, I3, I4, I5, I6, I7, and I8.
In step 202, a target abnormality score predicting model is determined based on the present output current values, wherein different abnormality score predicting models correspond to different characteristic current value ranges, and the abnormality score predicting model is obtained by training based on a historical output current value of the photovoltaic array.
A plurality of abnormality score predicting models are pre-stored in the computer device. The abnormality score predicting model is obtained by training based on the historical output current value of the photovoltaic array. Different abnormality score predicting models correspond to different characteristic current value ranges. For example, a characteristic current value range corresponding to an abnormality score predicting model A is 0-2 A, a characteristic current value range corresponding to an abnormality score predicting model B is 2-4 A, and a characteristic current value range corresponding to an abnormality score predicting model C is 4-6 A, and the like.
Optionally, historical output current values corresponding to the photovoltaic array within 6 months may be acquired to construct a plurality of training samples to obtain the plurality of abnormality score predicting models by training.
In a possible implementation, the computer device determines a corresponding present characteristic current value by processing the present output current values, and determines a corresponding target abnormality score predicting model according to a relationship between the present characteristic current value and the characteristic current value range corresponding to each abnormality score predicting model. For example, if the present characteristic current value is 5 A, the abnormality score predicting model C is determined as the target abnormality score predicting model.
In step 203, a present abnormality score corresponding to the photovoltaic array is determined by inputting the present output current values into the target abnormality score predicting model.
In a possible implementation, after the target abnormality score predicting model is determined, the present abnormality score is output by inputting each present output current value into the target abnormality score predicting model.
Optionally, the present output current values may be input into the target abnormality score predicting model in the form of a matrix.
In step 204, an operating state of the photovoltaic array is determined by comparing the present abnormality score with a target abnormality score, wherein different abnormality score predicting models correspond to different abnormality scores.
As to the target abnormality score, the historical output current value may be input into the corresponding abnormality score predicting model in advance, and the output abnormality score may be determined as a standard abnormality score corresponding to the abnormality score predicting model (i.e., the target abnormality score), and the standard abnormality score is stored in association with the corresponding abnormality score predicting model.
In a possible implementation, after the present abnormality score is acquired, it may be compared with the target abnormality score which is stored in association with the target abnormality score predicting model. If a preset logical relationship is satisfied, it is output that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is normal. If the preset logical relationship is not satisfied, it is output that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is abnormal.
The preset logical relationship may be that the present abnormality score is less than or equal to the target abnormality score.
In summary, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, present output current values of photovoltaic strings included in a photovoltaic array are acquired, a target abnormality score predicting model is determined based on the present output current values, a present abnormality score corresponding to the photovoltaic array is output by inputting the present output current values into the target abnormality score predicting model, so as to compare the present abnormality score with a target abnormality score corresponding to the target abnormality score predicting model, and thus an operating state of the photovoltaic array is determined based on the comparison result. The present abnormality score is output by inputting the present output current values acquired in real-time into the abnormality score predicting model, so as to determine the present operating state of the photovoltaic array. Since the present output current value can reflect the operating state of the photovoltaic array in real-time, compared to a method for determining an operating state through an infrared image in the related arts, the interference of the ambient temperature on the infrared image can be avoided, thereby improving the accuracy of determining the operating state of the photovoltaic array.
In a possible application scenario, present output current values corresponding to a preset timestamp may be acquired simultaneously to construct a preset timestamp current matrix. The operating state of the photovoltaic array is determined by judging a relationship between an abnormality score corresponding to the preset timestamp (obtained by accumulating a present abnormality score corresponding to each sampling moment included in the preset timestamp) and an abnormality score threshold.
The preset timestamp may include M sampling moments, wherein M is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
Schematically, a current matrix corresponding to the preset timestamp may be:
wherein IMN represents a present output current value corresponding to an Nth photovoltaic string at an Mth sampling moment.
As to the method for obtaining the abnormality score corresponding to the preset timestamp, firstly, different current sub-matrices (indicated by Ii) may be divided based on different sampling moments. Then a present characteristic current value corresponding to each current sub-matrix may be determined, so as to determine a target abnormality score predicting model corresponding to each current sub-matrix based on the determined present characteristic current value and a characteristic current value range corresponding to each abnormality score predicting model. Finally, a present abnormality score S=[S1 . . . SM] corresponding to each current sub-matrix (i.e., each sampling moment) is obtained by inputting each current sub-matrix into a corresponding target abnormality score predicting model, wherein SM represents the present abnormality score corresponding to the Mth sampling moment. After accumulation, an abnormality score ST corresponding to the preset timestamp may be obtained.
Schematically, if M is 3 and N is 8, then the preset timestamp includes present output current values corresponding to 3 sampling moments, and each acquisition moment corresponds to 8 current values. Taking sampling moment 1 as an example, a present output current value corresponding to sampling moment 1 is determined as a current sub-matrix I1=[I11 . . . I1N], wherein I1N represents a present output current value corresponding to the Nth photovoltaic string at the first sampling moment. A present characteristic current value corresponding to the current sub-matrix is determined, so as to determine its corresponding target abnormality score predicting model. The present abnormality score corresponding to the current sub-matrix (indicated by S1) is obtained after inputting the current sub-matrix into the corresponding target abnormality score predicting model. In the same way, current sub-matrices I2 and I3 corresponding to the other two sampling moments, and their corresponding present abnormality scores S2 and S3 may be obtained. The abnormality score ST=S1+S2+S3 corresponding to the preset timestamp is obtained by accumulating each present abnormality scores.
As to the method for determining the abnormality score threshold, since the target abnormality score predicting model corresponding to each sampling moment may be different, and different abnormality score predicting models correspond to different target abnormality scores, after determining the target abnormality score predicting model corresponding to each sampling moment, a corresponding abnormality score threshold SThreshold within the preset timestamp is obtained by accumulating the target abnormality score corresponding to each target abnormality score predicting model. For example, the target abnormality score is 10-20, and the target abnormality score threshold is related to the number of sampling moments included in the preset timestamp.
Schematically, if M is 3, the preset timestamp current matrix may be divided into current sub-matrices I1, I2 and I3. If the current sub-matrix I1 corresponds to the abnormality score predicting model A, the current sub-matrix I2 corresponds to the abnormality score predicting model B, the current sub-matrix I3 corresponds to the abnormality score predicting model C, the abnormality score corresponding to the abnormality score predicting model A is SA, the abnormality score corresponding to the abnormality score predicting model B is SB, and the abnormality score corresponding to the abnormality score predicting model C is SC, then the abnormality score threshold corresponding to the preset timestamp current matrix is SThreshold=SA+SB+SC.
As to the preset logical relationship, it may be ST≤SThreshold. If the present abnormality score corresponding to the preset timestamp is less than or equal to the abnormality score threshold, it is output that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is normal. If the present abnormality score corresponding to the preset timestamp is greater than the target abnormality score threshold, it is output that the present operating state of the photovoltaic array is abnormal.
Optionally, after a present abnormality score corresponding to a certain current sub-matrix is acquired, it may be directly compared with its corresponding target abnormality score. If the present abnormality score is less than or equal to the target abnormality score, it is output that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is normal. If the present abnormality score is greater than the target abnormality score, a relationship between a present abnormality score corresponding to a next sampling moment and the target abnormality score is continuously judged until the circulated judgment of the corresponding sampling moments within the preset timestamp is all completed. If the present abnormality score corresponding to each sampling moment included in the preset timestamp is all greater than the target abnormality score, it is output that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is abnormal.
In the present embodiment, corresponding present output current values within a preset timestamp are acquired to construct a preset timestamp current matrix, a target abnormality score predicting model corresponding to each sampling moment is determined by analyzing the present output current value corresponding to each sampling moment included in the preset timestamp, and thus a present abnormality score corresponding to each sampling moment is obtained by inputting the present output current value corresponding to each sampling moment into the target abnormality score predicting model, an abnormality score corresponding to the preset timestamp is obtained by accumulating each present abnormality scores and is compared with an abnormality score threshold. If a preset logic relationship is satisfied, it is output that the operating state of the present photovoltaic array is normal. If not, it is output that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is abnormal. The operating state of the photovoltaic array is determined by acquiring the present output current values within the preset timestamp, which may improve the efficiency of determining the operating state of the photovoltaic array.
In a possible implementation, an abnormality score predicting model is obtained by training based on an acquired historical output current value corresponding to a photovoltaic array. Since there may be some abnormal or invalid data in the historical output current value, for example, current data at night (invalid data), or current data acquired when the combiner fails (or equipment that acquires the output current value fails) (abnormal data), which will all affect the accuracy of the abnormality score predicting model obtained by training Therefore, in order to improve the accuracy of the determined abnormality score predicting model, the acquired historical output current value needs to be filtered and processed according to certain data quality rules. The present embodiment focuses on describing the process of how to determine a current threshold, which is intended to filter a virtually high current value in the historical output current value.
Schematically,
In step 301, historical operating state data of a photovoltaic array within a preset time period is acquired.
The historical operating state data includes a historical output current value of a photovoltaic string, a historical irradiance corresponding to the photovoltaic string, a historical ambient temperature and a historical wind speed of an environment where the photovoltaic string is located, or the like.
The preset time period may be the recent 6 months, or the recent 1 year.
In a possible implementation, historical output current values, historical irradiances, historical ambient temperatures, historical wind speeds, or the like of the photovoltaic array within the recent 6 months may be acquired. As to the method for acquiring the historical output current values, reference may be made to the above embodiment, which is not repeated in the present embodiment. The historical ambient temperatures and the historical wind speeds may be acquired by a temperature sensor and an anemometer installed in the photovoltaic station respectively.
The historical irradiance corresponding to the photovoltaic string may be acquired by an irradiator equipped in the photovoltaic station. An installation manner of the irradiator may be horizontal installation (i.e., horizontal irradiator). Irradiance data acquired by the horizontal irradiator needs to be converted into irradiance data corresponding to an inclination of the photovoltaic array. An installation manner with a same inclination and a same orientation as the photovoltaic array (inclination irradiator) may also be adopted. The irradiance acquired by this installation manner is the irradiance corresponding to the photovoltaic string. In a possible implementation, the computer device collects historical irradiance data acquired by the irradiator within 6 months and stores the same in a corresponding database for subsequent determination of the current threshold.
Optionally, the historical operating state data may be acquired based on a preset sampling frequency. For example, the preset sampling frequency is 5 min. The sampling frequency may be the same as a sampling frequency for acquiring the present output current values.
In step 302, a photovoltaic module temperature corresponding to the photovoltaic array is calculated based on a maximum irradiance, a maximum wind speed and a maximum ambient temperature.
The maximum irradiance is determined by the historical irradiances. That is, a maximum value of all historical irradiances within a sampling period is regarded as the maximum irradiance. The maximum ambient temperature is determined by the historical ambient temperatures. That is, a maximum value of all historical ambient temperatures within the sampling period is regarded as the maximum ambient temperature. The maximum wind speed is determined by the historical wind speeds. That is, a maximum value of all historical wind speeds within the sampling period is regarded as the maximum wind speed.
Schematically, a relationship among the irradiance, the wind speed, the ambient temperature and the photovoltaic module temperature may be expressed as:
T
m
=G
POA exp(a+bWs)+Ta (1)
wherein Tm is the photovoltaic module temperature (the temperature of the back panel of the photovoltaic module), GPOA is the irradiance (which corresponds to the inclination of the photovoltaic array), Ws is the wind speed of the environment where the photovoltaic module is located, Ta represents the ambient temperature of the environment where the photovoltaic module is located, and a and b are constants. The values of a and b are different depending on the type and the installation manner of the photovoltaic module. For specific values, see Table I:
In a possible implementation, the photovoltaic module temperature Tm is obtained by substituting the acquired maximum wind speed, maximum ambient temperature, and maximum irradiance into formula (1).
In step 303, a first maximum output current value corresponding to the photovoltaic array is calculated based on the photovoltaic module temperature and the maximum irradiance, wherein the first maximum output current value is an output current value of the photovoltaic string under the maximum irradiance.
Schematically, a relationship among the output current, the photovoltaic module temperature, and the irradiance may be expressed as:
wherein I1 is the output current, Iph,stc is the output current under a standard test condition; GPOA is the inclination irradiation, β is a current temperature rise coefficient of the photovoltaic module, Tm is the photovoltaic module temperature (the temperature of the back panel of the photovoltaic module); and Tstc is the temperature under the standard test condition, namely 25° C.
Standard test condition (STC) refers to a recognized test standard for photovoltaic assemblies in the photovoltaic field, namely 1.5; 1000 W/m2; 25° C. 1.5 refers to that the air mass (AM) is 1.5, that is, the actual distance that the light passes through the atmosphere is 1.5 times the vertical thickness of the atmosphere. 1000 W/m2 is the irradiance of the sun under the standard test. 25° C. refers to that the photovoltaic module operates at 25° C.
In a possible implementation, since Iph,stc, β, Tstc and the like are default values, the first maximum output current value I1 corresponding to the photovoltaic array may be obtained by substituting the photovoltaic module temperature Tm and the maximum irradiance acquired in step 302 into formula (2).
In step 304, a second maximum output current value corresponding to the photovoltaic array is calculated based on a rated installed capacity and a maximum system voltage, wherein the second maximum output current value is a maximum current value that a combiner allows the photovoltaic strings to input.
The rated installed capacity is a rated power of the combiner connected to the photovoltaic array. The maximum system voltage is a system voltage of an inverter connected to the combiner.
Schematically, a relationship among the rated installed capacity, the maximum system voltage and the second maximum output current may be expressed as:
wherein Pcbx,rated is the rated installed capacity of the combiner, Vinv,max_system is the maximum system voltage of the inverter, and I2 is the second maximum output current. From formula (3), it may be seen that the second maximum output current has nothing to do with the historical operating data of the photovoltaic array. That is, for the same combiner, the second maximum output current is fixed.
In a possible implementation, the second maximum output current value, i.e., I2, may be obtained by calculating based on the rated installed capacity of the combiner and the maximum system voltage of the inverter.
In step 305, a minimum value of the first maximum output current value and the second maximum output current value is determined as a current threshold.
In a possible implementation, a minimum value of the first maximum output current and the second maximum output current value is determined as a current threshold. For example, the current threshold may be 10 A. If the acquired output current value of the photovoltaic string is higher than the current threshold, it indicates that the output current value corresponding to the photovoltaic string is virtually high. The reason for the current value being virtually high may be a problem with the combiner device or a failure of an induction coil detecting the current of the photovoltaic string, which does not belong to a range of the photovoltaic string failure. Therefore, it is necessary to filter the historical operating state data based on the determined current threshold to remove the virtually high current value.
Schematically, the current threshold may be represented by Ithreshold. A relationship among the current threshold, the first maximum output current value I1 and the second maximum output current value I2 may be expressed as (taking a minimum value of I1 and I2):
I
threshold=min(I1,I2)
Schematically, if I1=10 A and I2=10.5 A, then the current threshold Ithreshold=10 A.
In the present embodiment, historical operating state data corresponding to a photovoltaic array within a preset time period is acquired for obtaining a current threshold corresponding to the photovoltaic array by analysis, so as to filter and process the historical operating state data according to preset data quality rules, thereby improving the accuracy of the abnormality score predicting model obtained by training.
In a possible implementation, after the acquired historical output current values within the preset time period are preprocessed based on the acquired current threshold in the above embodiment, the abnormality score predicting model may be trained based on the filtered historical output current values. The present embodiment focuses on describing how to obtain the abnormality score predicting model by training based on the filtered historical output current values.
Schematically,
In step 401, filtered historical output current values are obtained by filtering historical output current values based on a current threshold, wherein the filtered historical output current values are less than or equal to the current threshold
In a possible implementation, the historical output current values may be filtered according to preset data quality rules. The data quality rules may include: removing night data (for example, removing data before 7 am and after 6 pm), removing repeated timestamp data, removing data exceeding the current threshold, removing data within a time period when the combiner is not connected (the combiner is shut down), removing stuck data (stuck data refers to that the data is not refreshed for more than a preset time, for example, more than 10 minutes), removing data with irradiance less than 20 W/m2, supplementing vacancy values, and the like.
After removing the data exceeding the current threshold, a current vacancy value corresponding to the acquisition moment needs to be supplemented. A current average of effective time points before and after the acquisition moment corresponding to the vacancy value may be regarded as a filling value instead of the vacancy value. For example, a current value corresponding to 10:05:00 is 18 A, which is greater than the current threshold 10 A. A current value acquired at 10:00:00 is 6.7 A, which is less than the current threshold 10 A. A current value acquired at 10:10:00 is 6.9 A, which is also less than the current threshold 10 A. Then a current average of 6.8 A may be regarded as an output current value corresponding to 10:05:00.
In a possible implementation, the historical output current values after being processed by the preset data quality rules are determined as basic data for training the abnormality score predicting model.
In step 402, a historical characteristic current value is determined based on the filtered historical output current values, wherein the historical characteristic current value characterizes historical current characteristics corresponding to each acquisition moment of the photovoltaic array.
Due to differences in the historical output current values corresponding to different acquisition moments in a day, in order to obtain the abnormality score predicting model corresponding to each acquisition moment by training more accurately, the historical output current values may be divided based on the historical characteristic current value corresponding to each acquisition moment. Data that meets a same characteristic current value range is regarded as basic data for training the abnormality score predicting model. For example, 0-2 A in the historical output current values is divided as a training sample A1, 2-4 A in the historical output current values is divided as a training sample A2, 4-6 A in the historical output current values is divided as a training sample A3, and so on. The historical output current values may be divided into different levels (i.e., different training samples) based on the historical characteristic current value.
As to acquiring the basis for dividing the training samples, in a possible implementation, the division is performed based on the historical characteristic current value. The method for determining the historical characteristic current value may be as follows. Taking the preset time period being 6 months, the sampling time interval being 1 min, and the photovoltaic array including 8 photovoltaic strings as an example, there are 6×30×12×60 historical output current values corresponding to the same photovoltaic string at the same acquisition moment. First of all, as to these 129,600 historical output current values, a historical output current value corresponding to a K percentile is regarded as the historical output current value corresponding to the photovoltaic string at the acquisition moment, and K is an integer greater than 50. That is, the historical output current value above the median is taken. According to the above steps, the historical output current value corresponding to each acquisition moment in a day of the same photovoltaic string may be determined. In the same way, the historical output current values corresponding to each acquisition moment of all photovoltaic strings may be obtained.
Schematically, the historical output current values corresponding to each acquisition moment in a day of all photovoltaic strings may be expressed in the form of a matrix as:
wherein IT represents the matrix of historical output current values, and Iij represents the historical output current value corresponding to the jth photovoltaic string at the ith sampling moment.
In a possible implementation, after the matrix of historical output current values is acquired, a plurality of historical characteristic current values Iti may be extracted therefrom. The method for extracting the historical characteristic current value may be that for a plurality of branch current values corresponding to the same sampling moment (i.e., the historical output current values corresponding to each photovoltaic string), the historical output current value corresponding to the K percentile is taken as the historical characteristic current value corresponding to the acquisition moment, and K is an integer greater than or equal to 50. That is, the historical output current value above the median is taken. In the same way, the historical characteristic current values corresponding to each sampling moment may be obtained.
Schematically, the obtained set of historical characteristic current values may be IK=[It1 . . . Iti It(i+1)], wherein Iti represents the historical characteristic current value corresponding to the ith sampling moment.
In step 403, at least one training sample is determined by dividing the filtered historical output current values based on the historical characteristic current value, wherein the historical output current values included in different training samples correspond to different characteristic current value ranges, and the characteristic current value range is determined based on the historical characteristic current value.
In a possible implementation, after the historical characteristic current value corresponding to each sampling moment is determined, at least one training sample may be determined by dividing the filtered historical output current values based on the historical characteristic current value, so as to obtain at least one abnormality score predicting model by training.
As to the method for dividing the filtered historical output current values based on the historical characteristic current value, in a possible implementation, firstly, a plurality of characteristic current value ranges are obtained by arranging the obtained historical characteristic current values in an ascending order and regarding two adjacent historical characteristic current values as a characteristic current value range. A plurality of training samples are obtained by determining a historical output current value satisfying the characteristic current value range as a training sample. Different training samples correspond to different characteristic current value ranges.
Schematically, if the historical characteristic current value is IK=[It1 . . . Iti It(i+1)], and Iti<It(i+1), then the training sample is IKi=[I1 I2 . . . In], wherein the training sample IKi∈[Iti, It(i+1)], representing that the historical output current values in the training sample IKi are all within the characteristic current value range from Iti to It(i+1).
In step 404, the abnormality score predicting model is trained based on the training sample.
In a possible implementation, the abnormality score predicting model adopts an Isolation Forest algorithm. After a plurality of training samples are determined, the abnormality score predicting model may be trained based on the training sample.
In a possible implementation, the abnormality score predicting model may be obtained by training based on the following steps.
1. A training sample IKi is acquired, and Ψ pieces of sample data are randomly selected from the training sample IKi as sub-samples to construct a binary tree.
Since the abnormality score predicting model is composed of a plurality of binary trees, in the process of training the abnormality score predicting model, each binary tree needs to be constructed. That is, the training sample needs to be divided into a plurality of sub-samples to construct a binary tree respectively according to each binary tree. Experiments show that when 100 binary trees exist in the abnormality score predicting model and the data volume included in the sub-samples is 256, the obtained abnormality score predicting model can achieve a better prediction effect.
Schematically, 256 pieces of sample data may be randomly selected as a sub-sample A from the training sample IKi, and a first binary tree may be constructed based on the sub-sample A.
Optionally, the data volume of the sub-sample and the number of binary trees included in the abnormality score predicting model may be set by the operation and maintenance personnel as needed, which is not limited in the present embodiment.
2. A value between the maximum value and the minimum value of the historical output current values included in the sub-sample is randomly generated as a boundary characteristic value Ip.
In a possible implementation, the historical output current values may be regarded as dimensions for dividing each node of the binary tree, and a value between the maximum value and the minimum value of the historical output current values on the node is randomly selected as the boundary characteristic value.
Schematically, as shown in
3. The current node data is divided based on the boundary characteristic value Ip. Node data less than Ip is divided as a left child node, and node data greater than or equal to Ip is divided as a right child node.
Schematically, as shown in
4. The above steps 2 to 3 are performed on the left child node and the right child node of the node respectively to continuously construct new leaf nodes until preset conditions are satisfied, then the training ends and a binary tree is generated.
The preset conditions may include: (1) whether the present binary tree reaches a preset depth; (2) only one piece of sample data exists on the child node; (3) the sample data on the child nodes have the same characteristics.
Schematically, as shown in
5. Ψ pieces of sample data are randomly selected again from the training sample IKi as a sub-sample to construct a second binary tree according to steps 2 to 4.
In a possible implementation, after a binary tree is generated, training sub-samples are randomly selected again from the training sample IKi. For example, training sub-samples IKB=[I5 I6 I7 I8], IKC=[I9 I10 I11 I12], IKD=[I13 I14 I15 I16], and the like, are randomly selected, and a plurality of binary trees are generated based on each training sub-sample.
6. When the number of binary trees satisfies a preset number, an abnormality score predicting model is formed based on the plurality of constructed binary trees.
In a possible implementation, when the number of constructed binary trees satisfies a number threshold, for example, the preset number is 100, an abnormality score predicting model is formed based on the 100 constructed binary trees.
Optionally, the above embodiment only describes a process of training an abnormality score predicting model. Since the filtered historical output current values are divided into a plurality of training samples based on the historical characteristic current value, the training of a plurality of abnormality score predicting models may be realized according to the above steps 1 to 6.
Optionally, as the historical output current values are continuously updated, the abnormality score predicting model may be retrained at any time with the updated historical output current values.
In the present embodiment, the acquired historical output current values are filtered based on the current threshold to remove virtually high current values in order to avoid the influence on the accuracy of the abnormality score predicting model. In addition, the abnormality score predicting model adopts the Isolation Forest algorithm, which can effectively identify isolated data points in training samples.
In a possible implementation, after the training of the abnormality score predicting model is completed, an abnormality score corresponding to the abnormality score predicting model may be obtained by inputting the training sample IKi into the abnormality score predicting model again.

In step 601, S path lengths corresponding to a training sample are obtained by inputting the training sample into S binary trees respectively.
In a possible implementation, it is set that there are S binary trees in the abnormality score predicting model, and S path lengths corresponding to the training sample are obtained by inputting the training sample into the corresponding abnormality score predicting model, that is, a path length of the training sample on each binary tree, and then the S path lengths are recorded.
In step 602, an abnormality score corresponding to the training sample is calculated based on the S path lengths.
Schematically, a relationship between the path length and the abnormality score may be expressed as:
wherein S(x,Ψ) is the abnormality score corresponding to the training sample, c(Ψ) is an average path length of each binary tree in the abnormality score predicting model, h(x) is the path length of the training sample on each binary tree, and E is averaging.
As to the average path length c(Ψ) of the binary tree, the satisfied relation may be:
wherein Ψ is the sample date volume included in the training sample, and H(Ψ−1) is a harmonic number, which may be estimated as H(Ψ−1)=ln(Ψ-1)+ζ, Euler's constant ζ=0.5772156649.
In a possible implementation, S path lengths, i.e., h(x), are obtained by inputting the training sample into the corresponding abnormality score predicting model. The S path lengths are averaged to obtain E(h(x)) to be substituted into formula (4) to calculate an abnormality score corresponding to the training sample, i.e., an abnormality score corresponding to the abnormality score predicting model (standard abnormality score).
In the present embodiment, path lengths of a training sample on S binary trees may be obtained by inputting the training sample into a corresponding abnormality score predicting model, and an abnormality score corresponding to the abnormality score predicting model may be obtained by calculating based on the S path lengths, so as to be compared with a present abnormality score subsequently to determine an operating state of a photovoltaic array.
In a possible implementation, in order to eliminate false alarm situations caused by accidental factors, present abnormality scores corresponding to N continuous sampling moments should be judged, so as to improve the alarm accuracy.
Refer to
In step 701, present output current values of photovoltaic strings included in a photovoltaic array are acquired, wherein the photovoltaic array includes at least two photovoltaic strings in parallel.
For the implementation of this step, reference may be made to step 201, which is not repeated in the present embodiment.
In step 702, a target abnormality score predicting model is determined based on the present output current values, wherein different abnormality score predicting models correspond to different characteristic current value ranges, and the abnormality score predicting model is obtained by training based on a historical output current value of the photovoltaic array.
When a combiner device or an induction coil that detects an output current of a string fails, the acquired present output current values will be virtually high. If there is virtually high current value in the acquired present output current values, the determined present abnormality score will be high, which will affect the judgment of the operating state of the photovoltaic array. Therefore, before inputting the present characteristic current value into the target abnormality score predicting model, the present output current values need to be preprocessed, for example, to remove the virtually high current values in the present output current values.
Schematically, as shown in
In step 702A, filtered present output current values are obtained by filtering the present output current values based on a current threshold, wherein the current threshold is determined by historical operating state data of the photovoltaic array, and the filtered present output current values are less than or equal to the current threshold.
For the method for determining the current threshold, reference may be made to the above embodiment, which is not repeated in the present embodiment.
In a possible implementation, if a plurality of present output current values are acquired at the same acquisition moment, the plurality of present output current values are filtered based on the current threshold. That is, the present output current values that are greater than the current threshold are removed, and there is no need to fill the vacancy values.
Schematically, for example, the acquired present output current values may be I1=6.3 A, I2=7 A, I3=6.5 A, I4=6.4 A, I5=6.7 A, I6=7 A, I7=18 A, I8=6.9 A, and the current threshold is Ithreshold=10 A. The present output current values may be filtered according to a relationship between the current threshold and the present output current values. Since I7>Ithreshold, the present output current value corresponding to I7 is removed.
As to the present output current values acquired in real-time, after the virtually high current values are removed, if a vacancy value exists, the vacancy value does not need to be filled. Only the remaining present output current values need to be subsequently analyzed. Also, if a virtually high current value exists, other alarms will be triggered, such as a combiner device failure alarm, an induction coil failure alarm, or the like, which have nothing to do with the photovoltaic array failure alarm in the present disclosure.
In step 702B, a K percentile in the filtered present output current values is determined as a present characteristic current value, wherein K is an integer greater than or equal to 50, and the present characteristic current value characterizes present current characteristics corresponding to the photovoltaic array at a present acquisition moment.
In a possible implementation, a K percentile in the present output current values with the virtually high current values removed is determined as a present characteristic current value. By default, when K is an integer greater than or equal to 50, the obtained present characteristic current value characterizes the present current characteristics corresponding to the photovoltaic array at the present acquisition moment.
Schematically, if the filtered present output current values are I1=6.3 A, I2=7 A, I3=6.5 A, I4=6.4 A, I5=6.7 A, I6=7 A, I8=6.9 A, then the present output current values are arranged in order. A median (K=50) is taken to obtain the present characteristic current value IK=6.7 A.
In step 702C, a target abnormality score predicting model is determined based on the present characteristic current value, wherein the present characteristic current value lies within a target characteristic current value range corresponding to the target abnormality score predicting model
In a possible implementation, after the present characteristic current value corresponding to the present acquisition moment is acquired, the target abnormality score predicting model may be determined based on the present characteristic current value. The present characteristic current value lies within a target characteristic current value range corresponding to the target abnormality score predicting model.
Schematically, if the present characteristic current value is 6.7 A and the characteristic current value range corresponding to an abnormality score predicting model D is 6-8 A, the abnormality score predicting model D is determined as the target abnormality score predicting model.
In step 703, a present abnormality score corresponding to the photovoltaic array is determined by inputting the present output current values into the target abnormality score predicting model.
In a possible implementation, after the target abnormality score predicting model is determined, the present output current values may be regarded as a test sample to be input into the target abnormality score predicting model, so as to output a present abnormality score corresponding to the photovoltaic array at the current acquisition moment.
Schematically, the process of determining the present abnormality score may include the following steps.
1. S path lengths corresponding to a test sample are obtained by inputting the test sample into S binary trees respectively.
2. A present abnormality score corresponding to the test sample is calculated based on the S path lengths.
For the implementation of determining the present abnormality score, reference may be made to the above embodiment, which is not repeated in the present embodiment.
In step 704, it is determined that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is normal in response to the present abnormality score being less than or equal to the target abnormality score.
In a possible implementation, if the present abnormality score is less than or equal to the target abnormality score, it indicates that the deviation of the present output current values is small and basically no isolated current value exists, and the operating state of the photovoltaic array is determined to be normal.
In step 705, present abnormality scores corresponding to N continuous sampling moments are acquired in response to the present abnormality score being greater than the target abnormality score, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
In a possible implementation, if the present abnormality score is greater than the target abnormality score, it indicates that the deviation of the present output current values is large and an isolated current value exists, and an abnormal photovoltaic string may exist. In order to avoid the influence of accidental factors, it is necessary to acquire present abnormality scores corresponding to a plurality of continuous sampling moments and to compare the present abnormality scores with the target abnormality score.
In step 706, it is determined that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is abnormal in response to present abnormality scores corresponding to at least M continuous sampling moments being greater than the target abnormality score, wherein M is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and M is less than or equal to N.
In a possible implementation, if among the acquired present abnormality scores corresponding to the N continuous sampling moments, present abnormality scores corresponding to M continuous sampling moments are all greater than the target abnormality score, then the operating state of the photovoltaic array is determined to be abnormal.
Schematically, if the present sampling moment is moment a and the present abnormality score corresponding to the acquisition moment a is greater than the target present abnormality score, then moment a is marked as a first abnormal moment t1, and a relationship between a present abnormality score at the next acquisition moment (moment a+1) and the target abnormality score is continuously judged. If the present abnormality score corresponding to moment a+1 is also greater than the target abnormality score, moment a+1 is marked as a second abnormal moment t2, and the above judging step is repeated. If the present abnormality scores corresponding to M continuous sampling moments are all greater than the target abnormality score, it is determined that an abnormal photovoltaic string exists in the photovoltaic array.
The time corresponding to the M continuous sampling moments may be a time difference between the ith abnormal moment and the first abnormal moment. That is, it needs to satisfy ti−t1≥Tts before outputting that an abnormal photovoltaic string exists in the photovoltaic array, wherein ti is the first abnormal moment, ti is the ith abnormal moment, and Tts is the time threshold.
Optionally, if the continuous abnormal moment is less than the time threshold, it should be output that the operating state of the photovoltaic array is normal.
Optionally, the time threshold may be set by the operation and maintenance personnel as needed. For example, the time threshold may be 15 min or 60 min.
In the present embodiment, present current output values acquired in real-time are filtered by a current threshold to remove the influence of virtually high current values on the determination of the present abnormality score. In addition, by setting a time threshold, only when the present abnormality scores within a preset time period are all greater than the target abnormality score will a photovoltaic string abnormality alarm be triggered, which can avoid false alarms caused by accidental factors and improve the alarm accuracy.
In a possible implementation, when it is determined that the photovoltaic array is failed, the computer device may also generate an alarm record, so that the operation and maintenance personnel may determine which abnormal photovoltaic strings exist in the photovoltaic array based on the alarm record, inspect abnormal photovoltaic strings offline, and solve the problem that the operating state of the photovoltaic string is abnormal in time.
1. A minimum output current value of the present output current values corresponding to the M continuous sampling moments is determined.
If it is determined that an abnormal photovoltaic string exists in the photovoltaic array, a plurality of minimum output current values may be determined based on the present output current values corresponding to the M continuous sampling moments. For example, if M is 3, then a minimum current value of the present output current values corresponding to each sampling moment is determined, and 3 continuous sampling moments correspond to 3 minimum output current values.
2. A photovoltaic string corresponding to the minimum output current value is determined as an abnormal photovoltaic string.
Since the output current value is small and differs greatly from the present characteristic current value, the abnormality score is high. Therefore, a photovoltaic string corresponding to the minimum output current value is determined as an abnormal photovoltaic string, and the abnormal photovoltaic string information is regarded as an alarm content which is notified to the operation and maintenance personnel.
Optionally, the alarm record may include the present characteristic current value, the minimum output current value, the maximum output current value, and the abnormal photovoltaic string information corresponding to the abnormal acquisition moment.
In the present embodiment, an alarm record including information such as a minimum output current value, abnormal photovoltaic string information, a maximum output current value, and a present characteristic current value is generated, so as to promptly notify the operation and maintenance personnel to conduct offline inspections to solve the problem that an operating state of the photovoltaic string is abnormal.
