Description

Wind power blade icing monitoring and self-adaptive deicing integrated system and method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic guided wave nondestructive testing and power guided wave application in new energy industry, and particularly relates to a system and a method for wind power blade icing monitoring and self-adaptive deicing integration.
Background
The wind energy reserves in China are rich, but wind resources are mainly distributed in cold northern, high-altitude and coastal areas, the wind speed is increased by about 0.1m/s when the wind speed is increased by 100 meters at the altitude of more than 1000 meters according to statistics, and icing becomes the biggest problem affecting the running efficiency and safety of a fan in the high-altitude and cold areas. The wind power blade icing can change the external shape and aerodynamic performance of the blade, increase the blade resistance, reduce the lift force, influence the operability and stability of the whole machine, finally reduce the conversion efficiency of wind energy, lead to unbalanced units due to blade icing, and lead to easy overload due to increased load; when icing is serious, the machine set has to be shut down after being disconnected from the net, otherwise, blades can be broken, and serious safety accidents such as spontaneous combustion and even collapse of the machine set can be caused. Currently, the method for monitoring icing of wind power blades and self-adaptively deicing has great significance.
Common methods for monitoring icing of wind power blades include an optical imaging method, an electrothermal method, a capacitance method and the like. The detection technology based on the single sensor has obvious defects on the wind power blade, and firstly, a large-range detection blind area exists due to the non-uniformity of the icing of the wind power blade and the limited number of the sensors; secondly, because of the location where many sensors are mounted on the outer surface in direct contact with the ice layer, this can affect the aerodynamic performance of the structure. Common methods for deicing wind power blades include a freezing point inhibition method, a hot melting method, a surface deformation method and the like. These methods have respective disadvantages, and may damage wind power blades or pollute the environment. Therefore, developing a simple, efficient, low-cost and integrated method and system capable of achieving icing monitoring and self-adaptive deicing of wind power blades becomes one of the hot spots of current research.
The guided wave has the advantages of long propagation distance, sensitivity to defects, single-point excitation, small attenuation, large energy and the like, so that the guided wave is suitable for icing monitoring and deicing of wind power blades. However, the research on wind power blade ultrasonic guided wave nondestructive testing technology in China is less at present. The invention patent of patent publication No. CN104458910A, a nondestructive testing method for bonding defects of a wind turbine blade shell and a web plate, proposes to use ultrasonic guided waves to detect the defect of lack of adhesive in the bonding process of the wind turbine blade shell and the web plate. However, since the icing monitoring and the defect detection are not the same, the energy of the defect detection is far from realizing the purpose of deicing, so that the method is not suitable for the integration of icing monitoring and deicing. Wang Peng et al at Harbin university of industry propose a method for detecting icing of wind power blades using Lamb waves in the ultrasonic guided wave method-based fan blade icing detection, however Lamb waves have dispersion and detection signals have distortion. Lamb wave energy in the composite material is seriously leaked, the propagation distance is not long, the composite material is not suitable for large-scale icing detection of wind power blades, and moreover, only a method for detecting icing is provided, and no deep study is carried out on deicing work. The prior art has no detection method and system which are rapid and efficient, accurate in positioning and quick in imaging and can realize integration of icing monitoring and deicing for the icing monitoring and deicing of wind power blades.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the monitoring transducer array 4 and the deicing transducer array 5 are disposed inside the skin layers of the upper and lower surfaces of the wind power blade or on the upper and lower surfaces of the wind power blade cavity: the wind power blade is divided into a plurality of sections along the length direction thereof, the number of the sections is determined according to the surface area of the wind power blade, and in practice, the sections are divided into three sections, namely a first section 11, a second section 12 and a third section 13, as shown in fig. 2.
In each section of area, deicing transducer arrays are arranged at intervals along the rib plate direction on one side of the rib plate of the wind power blade, so that deicing transducer arrays 5 are formed, and a circle of monitoring transducers are arranged at the edge of each section of area, so that monitoring transducer arrays 4 are formed.
In a specific implementation, the monitoring transducer array 4 adopts an on-chip phased array magnetostrictive guided wave transducer. The invention patent with the acceptance number of 201610359784.6 proposes the magnetostrictive phased array horizontal shearing guided wave transducer, which can realize the accurate control of the output and receiving modes and complete the monitoring work. The deicing transducer array 5 employs a multilayer stacked magnetostrictive sheet structure.
As shown in fig. 4, the invention works by first monitoring that the transducer array collects data without icing in advance as reference data for evaluating the subsequent deicing effect. And starting an icing monitoring system according to the environmental climate conditions, and imaging signals received by the monitoring transducer array by adopting a tomography algorithm, so that an icing area is displayed on the upper computer. And then dividing the icing area into a plurality of small areas according to the areas of monitoring and imaging, measuring the icing position and area size by the areas, and making a deicing strategy. And then starting a high-power deicing transducer array, and carrying out focusing scanning deicing according to the set small area sub-area. And after the deicing of all the small areas is finished, comparing the monitoring data before and after the deicing, and evaluating the deicing effect. When residual ice exists, the residual ice area displayed by the monitoring imaging is divided into small areas again, the small areas are deiced, and the anti-focusing imaging algorithm can be timely adopted, so that the deicing intensity is increased to carry out deicing work. Repeating the operation until the monitoring data before and after deicing are consistent, and stopping the system when the deicing requirement is met.
Step one: arranging a monitoring transducer array 4, and arranging a circle of monitoring transducers at the edge of each section area to form the monitoring transducer array 4;
for each section of area, a rectangular coordinate system is established by taking one vertex of the area as an origin, the position coordinates of each monitoring transducer placed in each rectangular area are recorded, and each monitoring transducer is numbered N in sequence i (i=1, 2,3, …, n, n is the number of monitoring transducers in the array) as a coordinate basis for final defect detection imaging.
Step two: in each section of the area, monitoring is carried out by taking one monitoring transducer in the monitoring transducer array 4 as an excitation source each time, and the monitoring transducers are traversed to obtain a plurality of monitoring processes, wherein n is received in total in each section of the area 2 The number of signals, n, is the total number of monitoring transducers in the monitoring transducer array 4, and is defined by n 2 The signals form an original acquisition data matrix S of the section area;
each monitoring process is specifically as follows:
1) The ultrasonic guided wave signal is two paths of sinusoidal electric signals with four periods modulated by a Hanning window, and other parameters of the two paths of sinusoidal electric signals are consistent except for 90 degrees of phase difference, so that the excited guided wave components which are reversely propagated in the transmitting direction of the probe of the monitoring transducer are mutually offset, and the guided wave components which are positively propagated in the transmitting direction are coherently overlapped, thereby achieving the purpose of direction control;
2) All monitoring transducers (including the monitoring transducers generating ultrasonic guided wave signals) in the area simultaneously start to receive signals, each monitoring transducer receives two paths of echo signals, and the two paths of echo signals are overlapped together as receiving signals of the monitoring transducers after time sequence control;
3) After each excitation, the monitoring transducer array 4 receives n signals, where n is the total number of monitoring transducers in the monitoring transducer array 4.
The guided wave of the selective excitation in the detection is zero-order horizontal shear wave (namely SH0 wave). The SH0 wave was selected because: firstly, SH0 waves are non-dispersive, and the group velocity of the SH0 waves does not change along with the excitation frequency, so that the time domain prolongation of wave packets can not occur in a received signal, the complexity of post signal processing is reduced, and the extraction of useful information in the signal is facilitated; second, SH0 waves have only in-plane displacement relative to Lamb waves, which ensures minimal loss of guided wave energy and increases deicing efficiency.
Step three: repeating the second step to obtain the original acquisition data matrix S of each segment area j J=1, 2,3, …, m, m is the number of divided areas;
the specific implementation divides the wind power blade into j areas, and then the wind power blade is subjected to icing monitoring to collect n altogether 2 X j sets of time domain signals.
Step four: under the condition that the wind power blade has no icing defect, a tomography method is adopted to perform original acquisition data matrix S of each region j Performing data processing to obtain standard sampling data and a two-dimensional distribution diagram thereof;
step five: under the condition that the wind power blade has icing defects, a tomography method is adopted in real time to acquire an original data matrix S of each region j Performing data processing to obtain real-time monitoring data and a two-dimensional distribution diagram thereof;
step six: comparing the two-dimensional distribution map of the real-time monitoring data with the two-dimensional distribution map of the standard sampling data to find the icing defect position;
step seven: the deicing transducer arrays 5 are arranged, and the deicing transducer arrays are arranged at intervals along the rib plate direction on one side of the rib plate of the wind power blade to form the deicing transducer arrays 5.
The amplitude and the excitation time delay of ultrasonic guided waves emitted by each deicing transducer are controlled, so that the ultrasonic guided waves emitted by the deicing transducer array 5 are overlapped at the maximum at the icing defect position towards the icing region position, and deicing work is carried out;
in the implementation, a coordinate system is established by taking one end of a middle rib plate on the upper surface and the lower surface of the wind power blade as an origin, the coordinates of the deicing transducer array position arranged in the direction of the rib plate are recorded, and then the deicing transducer is arranged at the set position.
Step eight: and repeating the steps one to six after deicing operation to obtain a new icing defect position as a residual ice area position, readjusting the delay time of each deicing transducer to deflect the emitted ultrasonic guided wave towards the residual ice area position, and performing deicing operation again on the residual ice area position until no icing meets the requirement, thereby realizing active control of the deicing area and deicing intensity.
In the icing detection process, taking two paths of signals received by two receiving transducers as examples, analyzing the change condition of the signals before and after icing, wherein fig. 5 is a signal received before and after icing of one of the transducers, and analyzing the signals in the graph can find that the reference signal is consistent with the detection signal, so that the area detected by the transducer has no icing phenomenon. Fig. 6 shows signals received before and after icing of another transducer, and analysis of the signals in the graph shows that the detected signals are far smaller than the reference signals, which indicates that icing occurs in the area detected by the transducer. Finally, the upper computer processes the signals received by the transducers by adopting a tomography algorithm, and a two-dimensional distribution map of the icing region can be obtained, as shown in fig. 7.
And for the middle rib plate area, uniformly arranging a one-dimensional array of high-power guided wave deicing transducers according to the requirement. And when the monitoring array finds that icing exists in the monitoring area and confirms the icing position and other relevant information, the deicing transducer array starts working. The fundamental principle of the acoustic beam focusing technology based on the phased array technology is to control delay, so that the same phase exists when the guided wave emitted by each transducer in the transducer group reaches a focusing point, and in-phase superposition of the amplitude of the guided wave is realized. Because the wind power blade plate is made of composite materials and has anisotropy, the phase velocity of the horizontal shearing mode guided wave of the frequency in each emission angle needs to be calculated in advance. After the relative positions of the transducers and the ice layer are determined, the required delay amount of the excitation signal of each transducer can be calculated. For optimal focusing, a window function is also typically used to modulate the excitation signal amplitude. The continuous high-power shear vibration decouples the ice layer from the blade, which eventually breaks away from the blade under centrifugal force during blade rotation. After deicing is completed, the transducer array is monitored to operate again, and a test is performed to confirm whether the ice layer has been completely removed.
Therefore, the invention realizes quantitative monitoring of the comprehensive information such as the icing position and the icing area of the blade, develops an active deicing technology with controllable strength and settable region, and ensures that deicing and anti-icing are more efficient, energy-saving and intelligent.
