Description

Method for calculating shadow efficiency of absorber tower to mirror field in tower type photo-thermal power station Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of tower type photo-thermal stations, in particular to a method for calculating the shadow efficiency of a heat absorption tower in a tower type photo-thermal station on a lens field. Background The principle of the tower type solar thermal power generation system is that a large amount of low-density solar energy is reflected to a heat absorber to be changed into high-density solar energy through thousands of heliostats, and then the heat absorber utilizes a working medium stored in the heat absorber to be converted into working medium heat energy, and the heat energy can be converted into hot gas to be applied to petroleum exploitation, district heating and can be converted into electric energy, so that the electric power grid is integrated or hydrogen and the like are produced. The individual heliostats thus constitute a concentrating system that plays an extremely important role in a tower solar thermal power plant. Because the concentrating system needs to collect sunlight through a large number of heliostats to finally realize energy concentration, in the whole field design, the improvement of the optical efficiency of the heliostats, which is the ratio of the energy received by the heat absorber to the maximum energy received by the heliostats in the field, needs to be considered. The higher the optical efficiency of the heliostat, the greater the energy provided to the heat absorber and the higher the efficiency of the entire solar energy to working medium thermal energy. Optical efficiency generally includes cosine efficiency, shading or shadowing efficiency, and atmospheric transmission efficiency. However, for a large tower type photo-thermal mirror field, there is a factor affecting optical efficiency, namely, shielding of the heliostat by the heat absorption tower, the large tower type photo-thermal mirror field is characterized in that the heat absorption tower is often close to 200 meters in height, the formed shadow is as long as hundreds of meters, and the width is as long as tens of meters, and the influence on the heliostat near the shadow is extremely large, so that quantitative calculation of the influence of the shadow of the heat absorption tower on the heliostat is important. The conventional method for calculating the shadow efficiency of the heat absorption tower to the heliostat mainly comprises the steps of calculating the shadow of the heat absorption tower to the heliostat firstly and then reversely calculating the blocking of the heat absorption tower to the reflected light of the heliostat. In view of this, we propose a method of calculating the shading efficiency of the absorber tower to the mirror field in a tower photo-thermal power station.
