针对光伏/光热(PV/T)系统光电光热的转换性能在我国北方寒冷地区仍受冬季低温条件制约,本文提出一种集成微通道热管阵列式的新型太阳能光伏/光热一体化系统,评估其在实际工况下的能量转换性能. 该系统由光伏组件、工质为R141b的铝制微通道热管阵列及U形集热换热组件组成;通过室内实验测试确定U形集热换热组件中冷却水的最优质量流量为0.025 kg/s,使能量转换效率与循环泵能耗取得平衡;基于室外多日实验分别考察该系统在冬季与夏季的温度分布和能量转换性能,以及在考虑循环泵能耗时的净能量转换性能. 具有气候代表性的2d实验结果表明:在冬季室外条件下,系统的热效率、净电效率和净总效率分别为27.21%、10.41% 和37.62%,日均净总能量输出为376.53 W,其中净电能输出为127.54 W,热能输出为248.98 W;在夏季运行条件下,相应的热效率、净电效率和净总效率分别能够达到47.42%、8.55% 和55.97%,日均净总能量输出为643.71 W,其中净电能输出为110.49 W,热能输出为533.22 W,实验结果显示出明显的季节性性能差异.

Abstract:Aiming at the problem that the photoelectric and photothermal conversion performance of photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) systems is still constrained by low winter temperatures in cold regions of northern China, this paper proposes a novel solar photovoltaic/thermal integrated system integrated with a micro-channel heat pipe array and evaluates its energy conversion performance under actual operating conditions. The system consists of a PV module, an aluminum micro-channel heat pipe array using R141b as the working fluid, and a U-shaped manifold heat exchanger. Indoor experiments determine that the optimal mass flow rate of cooling water in the U-shaped manifold heat exchanger is 0.025 kg/s, achieving a balance between energy conversion efficiency and circulating pump energy consumption. Based on multi-day outdoor experiments, the temperature distribution and energy conversion performance of the system in winter and summer are investigated, as well as its net energy conversion performance when circulating pump energy consumption is considered. The experimental results of two days with representative weather conditions show that under winter outdoor conditions, the thermal efficiency, net electrical efficiency, and net overall efficiency of the system are 27.21%, 10.41%, and 37.62%, respectively; the average daily net overall energy output is 376.53 W, including a net electrical output of 127.54 W and a thermal output of 248.98 W. Under summer operating conditions, the corresponding thermal efficiency, net electrical efficiency, and net overall efficiency can reach 47.42%, 8.55%, and 55.97%, respectively; the average daily net overall energy output is 643.71 W, including a net electrical output of 110.49 W and a thermal output of 533.22 W. The experimental results show obvious seasonal performance differences.
