Design of an Integrated Photovoltaic and Thermal Monitoring System Using ForceControl Configuration Software
Integrated solar photovoltaic and thermal(PV/T)systems utilize the heat produced during photovoltaic power generation to heat water,which can then be used for heating and domestic water supply purposes.At the same time,the water is used to cool the solar panel,thereby enhancing the efficiency of power generation and consequently improving the overall utilization of solar energy.To realize real-time monitoring and display of the temperature and power generation of the integrated PV/T system,we designed a monitoring system based on a ForceControl configuration system.In this paper,we provide details of the construction of the system,including the establishment of the physical integrated PV/T system,the temperature data acquisition system,and the electric data acquisition system,as well as the design of a monitoring interface based on the ForceControl configuration software.Within this study,the system was also constructed and verified.The results indicated that the system can display parameters including temperature of the PV module rear panel,temperature of the water tank,and power generation in real time.Furthermore,its characteristics,including friendly interface,intuitive display,and high precision all make it an appropriate tool for monitoring integrated PV/T systems.
