Photovoltaic power station UAV inspection system solution

The solar photovoltaic power generation system is mainly divided into centralized and distributed. The centralized power station generally covers a large area, most of which are built in the northwestern part of China and some remote areas. The natural environment is relatively bad. The distributed power stations are generally built on roofs, greenhouses and large-area pools. on. However, these photovoltaic power plants have brought a lot of operational and maintenance pressures after grid connection, such as conventional equipment testing and photovoltaic panel inspection. The traditional operation and maintenance method adopts manual inspection, which is inefficient, and most of them are based on the experience of operation and maintenance personnel to identify equipment failures, which are highly prone to deviation. At the same time, in the harsh natural environment of remote areas, the inspection work of photovoltaic power stations is very difficult and dangerous. For photovoltaic areas such as agricultural light complementary, fishing light complementary, rooftop power stations, traditional manual inspections can no longer meet the demand, and it is impossible to achieve safe and efficient PV inspection purposes.

1. Program objectives


The drone is equipped with a visible light camera, a thermal infrared sensor or an EL detecting device, and collects visible light, thermal infrared image or EL data of the photovoltaic component to realize intelligent inspection of the drone, and improve the efficiency and safety of the photovoltaic inspection. The visible light and thermal infrared images are stored in real time and can be quickly exported to the pc end. The UAV intelligent diagnostic software is used to intelligently process the thermal infrared image and the visible light image collected by the drone to realize the component non-power generation detection, dust and dirt blocking, Automated diagnosis and localization of hot spots caused by failure of components such as cracks. Greatly improve the inspection efficiency of the photovoltaic power station and the accuracy of fault diagnosis.

2, drone inspection system


The UAV inspection system includes four parts: the UAV system , the data acquisition system, the ground intelligent control system, and the data analysis and processing system. As shown in Figure 3-1:

2.2, data acquisition system

The data acquisition system includes visible light collecting obstructions, dust covering conditions, and infrared cameras collecting hot spots. The visible light integrated PTZ camera X5 and the thermal infrared integrated PTZ camera XT are separately arranged. The X5 combines a new image sensor with a powerful processor to capture 4K/30p video and 16 megapixel photos. The XT thermal imaging camera uses a range of FLIR proprietary technologies to reflect subtle temperature differences and make the target clear at a glance. The system parameter table is as follows:

Armoring Tape

Armored tape is generally a metal band or metal shell wrapped around the surface of the device to protect the power cable from wear or corrosion.

For example, armored cables are wrapped with a layer of copper tape outside the cable to prevent being pierced or worn by sharp objects,it can provide flexible Cord Covers.

Armoured thermocouple is the thermocouple jacket with stainless steel jacket to prevent internal corrosion of the thermocouple.
