- Another feature of the invention resides in the fact that it incorporates a water collection channel that runs on the solar panels, to form a closed circuit that allows the reuse of the water mist and / or the projected water curtain.
- This configuration also allows collecting rainwater that may fall on the solar panels, so that this water is added to the closed circuit of the invention, the closed circuit being able to contain only rainwater; and / or any other water from a supply source such as the water supply network, a well, etc.
- the refrigerator is in charge of receiving the water from the gutter, so that this water is then applied to a sand trap and from it passes to a decanter to remove solid waste that drags the water. on solar panels as a result of the fogging and / or projection of The water curtain
- the water treatment means comprise a chlorine dispenser that maintains the properties of the water, for which an ultraviolet light lamp is also provided that favors the maintenance of the properties of the water, which is also filtered to remove the chlorine, lime and filter impurities that could be deposited in solar panels.
- the invention provides that the water treatment means include a biocide or bisulfite dispenser to avoid salmonellosis problems, making the water harmless against any harmful germ.
- the treatment means are equipped with a reverse osmosis device that carries out the demineralization of the water, so that the deposit of minerals on the surface of the water is prevented.
- solar panels It also includes an osmotized water storage tank, which is equipped with the corresponding pump to transmit the water mist through the nozzles.
- the water treatment means also comprise a water storage tank, which also performs decanting functions and in which the already chlorinated water from the decanter is stored.
- This tank also provides for the possibility of filling by means of water from any other source of supply, as already described above, for which at the exit of said tank the corresponding pumping pressure group of the water stored for its application to the filters already mentioned, so that the water level in the closed circuit can be maintained and thus compensate the evaporation that occurs, and in case it does not rain.
- an intermediate water tank is provided from which said feed is made.
- the invention provides for the incorporation of means for emptying the pipes, which in the preferred embodiment of the invention comprise a temperature sensor which when detecting that the ambient temperature is lower than 1 ° C, the installation is disconnected and a compressed air compressor injects air into the pipes to empty them, preventing them from breaking by freezing the water.
- connection of the closed circuit to the water collection channel and the conduit that includes the set of nozzles is carried out by means of a rigid tube for the case in which the solar panels are fixedly installed; while in the case in which the solar panels are equipped with a motorization that moves the panels following the sun, this union is carried out by means of flexible tubes that allow the free movement of the solar panels.
- the invention provides for the incorporation of a pressure switch which, when detecting a high temperature, puts into operation the projection of the water curtain of water so as to increase the cooling of solar panels
- Figure 1. Shows a schematic representation of a possible embodiment of the device of the invention.
- the following is a description of the invention based on the above-mentioned figure.
- the invention is intended to improve the performance of solar panels 1, for which in its upper part a conduit 2 is provided which is provided with a set of nebulizer nozzles 3, which spray water on the surface of solar panel 1 and cause effect magnifying glass, increasing the collection of solar energy.
- the nozzles can be projected from a water curtain of about 5 mm. or incorporate two pipes, one with spray nozzles and the other with spray nozzles for a water curtain, to achieve adequate performance.
- a water collection channel 4 is provided that runs on the surface of the solar panels 1, so that the collected water is applied to a refrigerator 5 with thermostat to keep the water at about 5 0 C so that the properties of the water are conserved and so that it also constitutes a means of cooling the solar panels by applying the water mist on them.
- the outlet of the refrigerator 5 is applied to a sandbox 6 from which it passes to a decanter 7 to clean the solid waste that the water has dragged as a result of running on the surface of solar panels 1.
- chlorine is added to the water by means of a chlorine dispenser 8 and then passed through an ultraviolet light lamp 9 so that the properties of the water are maintained.
- the water is then introduced into a tank 10 that also performs decanter functions, and which is also connected to a water supply 11, through which water is injected into the tank 10 when the water level falls below a set level. .
- the outlet of the tank 10 is connected to a pumping group 12 that applies the water to filters 13 in which the chlorine, lime and impurities contained in the water are removed so that waste that could be deposited on the surface is removed of solar panels 1.
