Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain a low-noise state with high efficiency by connecting a solar battery and a capacitor together through a reactor. CONSTITUTION: The solar battery 1 and capacitor 2 are connected in parallel through the reactor 6. A load 4 and a commercial power supply system 5 are connected to an inverter 3, which converts the DC electric power across the capacitor 2 into AC power, in parallel respectively. The inequality in the figure preferably holds for the inductance L of the reactor 6, the capacity C of the capacitor 2, and the frequency (f) of the AC voltage. The reactor 6 can suppresses the influence of voltage variation of the capacitor 2, caused by a pulsating current on the input side of the inverter 3, on the solar battery 1. The voltage variation of the solar battery 1 is therefore reducible and operation at a point closer to the maximum electric power point of the solar battery 1 becomes possible. The inequality: 1/2π√(LC)<2f.

However, according to the prior art, even if the pulse width control of the inverter is performed so that the solar cell operates at the maximum operating point, the capacitor is changed by the pulsation of the inverter input side current for the reason described below. Since the voltage value of 1 fluctuates, the operating point of the solar cell deviates from the maximum power point as shown by the arrow on the power characteristic curve shown by the broken line in FIG. 2, and the efficiency decreases. Also, due to the switching of the internal elements of the inverter, the voltage fluctuation of the switching frequency leaks out, and the closed circuit including the solar cell and the capacitor acts as an antenna to generate noise, which adversely affects electronic devices such as TVs and radios.

Further, if it is attempted to absorb the influence of the pulsation of the current on the input side of the inverter only by the capacitor, a capacitor having a considerably large capacity is required, which hinders downsizing of the device.

EXAMPLES First, the background of how the invention was born will be described. In a converter such as an inverter that converts direct current into alternating current, a switching element is used during conversion to output the alternating voltage shown in FIG. At this time, the pulsating current shown in FIG. 3B flows in the current on the input side of the converter due to the relation of power exchange between the converter input and output. As a result, the voltage of the capacitor connected in parallel with the solar cell fluctuates as shown in FIG. In addition,
The magnitude of this fluctuation can be reduced by increasing the capacitance of the capacitor, but an attempt to smooth low frequencies requires a capacitor with a very large capacitance, which hinders miniaturization of the device. The voltage of the solar cell fluctuates as indicated by ΔV in Fig. 2 due to the voltage fluctuation of the capacitor, and even if the pulse width of the inverter is controlled so that the solar cell operates at the maximum power point, the voltage value of such a capacitor Due to fluctuations in
The operating point of the solar cell deviates from the maximum power point as shown by the arrow in FIG. 2, and the efficiency decreases. The power generated by the solar cell in this case is as shown by the solid line in FIG. Further, switching of the internal elements of the inverter causes a voltage fluctuation of the switching frequency, and the closed circuit including the solar cell and the capacitor plays a role of an antenna to generate noise,
Electronic devices such as Vs and radios are adversely affected.

The reactor produces a counter electromotive force with respect to the voltage fluctuation, and can smooth the voltage fluctuation. The effect of this reactor can reduce the influence of the voltage fluctuation of the capacitor shown in FIG. 4 on the solar cell. If the voltage fluctuation of the solar cell is reduced, ΔV shown in FIG. 2 is reduced, the operation can be performed at a more efficient operating point, and the efficiency is improved as shown by the broken line in FIG. Further, since the voltage fluctuation of the capacitor can be suppressed by the reactor as described above, the voltage fluctuation of the solar cell can be suppressed without providing a large-capacity capacitor, and the operation can be efficiently performed. Further, in order to minimize the generation of noise, it is desirable to dispose the solar cell 1 as close as possible to the point A when viewed from the solar cell 1 in FIG.

Furthermore, it is effective that the inductance L of the reactor and the capacitance C of the capacitor capable of suppressing the voltage fluctuation of the solar cell are in the range of L and C shown in the equation (1).
The current waveform on the input side of the inverter is as shown in FIG. 3B, but due to this influence, the voltage of the capacitor fluctuates as shown in FIG. The frequency of the voltage fluctuation of the capacitor at this time matches the double frequency of the inverter output AC frequency. Therefore, when the resonant frequencies of L and C are smaller than the double frequency of the inverter output AC frequency, that is, by using L and C in the range shown in Formula 1, the voltage fluctuation of the solar cell can be suppressed. Further, due to the voltage fluctuation of the switching frequency leaking from the inverter, noise is generated from the circuit including the solar cell, the reactor and the capacitor. In order to suppress the noise generation, when the resonance frequencies of L and C are lower than the switching frequency, that is, by using L and C in the range shown in Formula 2, the noise generation due to the voltage fluctuation of the switching frequency can be suppressed. .

According to the present invention, the reactor connected in series with the solar cell can suppress the influence on the solar cell of the voltage fluctuation of the capacitor caused by the pulsating current on the input side of the inverter. Therefore, the voltage fluctuation ΔV of the solar cell as shown in FIG. 2 can be reduced, and the operation at a point closer to the maximum power point of the solar cell becomes possible. Also, in order to absorb the influence of such chopped pulsating current on the input side of the inverter only with the capacitor, a capacitor with a considerable capacity is required, but by installing a reactor the solar cell can be used without increasing the capacity of the capacitor. It can be operated efficiently. Furthermore, the voltage fluctuation of the entire closed circuit including the solar cell, the reactor, and the capacitor shown in FIG. 1 is suppressed, so that the generation of noise from the above portion can be suppressed. As a result, reception of TV, radio, and other adverse effects on electronic devices can be suppressed.
