Abstract

The invention discloses a heliostat tracking error correction method. Based on the characteristics that a heliostat tracking deviation angle has small variation in a short time and the tracking deviation angles at the same moment in the adjacent days have small variation, an image collecting and processing system is adopted to detect and obtain the tracking deviation angles of a certain heliostat at multiple moments in the whole day, or the tracking deviation angles obtained by the heliostat at multiple moments in one day or previous days are taken as the intraday tracking deviation angle; an intraday tracking deviation curve of the heliostat is obtained by the interpolation; according to the tracking deviation curve, the current angle of the heliostat is corrected to ensure that the facula of the heliostat can basically accurately be projected to a target position. The invention obtains the tracking deviation angles at multiple moments by detection of heliostat tracking error many days a year or many times a day; the everyday corresponding tracking deviation curve of each heliostat can be found by one-year or multiple-year tracking deviation angle data analysis treatment and curve fitting; and thus, the facula of the heliostat can be projected to the target position more accurately.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for correcting the tracking error of a heliostat used in a tower-type solar thermal power generation system. Background technique [0002] The working principle of the tower solar thermal power station is: through the heliostat, the sunlight is concentrated and reflected to the heat absorber installed on the high tower to generate high temperature, and the high temperature is used to heat the working medium to generate electricity. Improving the tracking accuracy of heliostats is an important research topic in the field of tower solar thermal power generation. [0003] The current position of the heliostat can be accurately calculated through astronomical formulas, and the calculation accuracy can be very high. For example, the sun formula published by Ibrahim Reda in Solar Energy Magazine Issue 76 in 2004 has an accuracy of three ten-thousandths of a degree. However, in the process of manufacturing, installing and op...
