Description

Feathering device, pitch-changing system and pitch-changing method of wind generating set
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of wind generating sets, in particular to a feathering device, a pitch control system and a pitch control method of the wind generating set.
Background
As wind energy is gradually recognized, familiar and utilized, the generation of wind power generation sets plays a significant role in the sustainable development and green development of new energy sources, horizontal axis wind power generation sets also go from the first tens or even thousands of KW to the MW level of today, and safety control systems of wind power generation sets also develop from the initial single protection by blade stall to the use of pitch systems to promote wind energy utilization efficiency and multiple safety protection. In the wind generating set with the current energy of more than 1.5MW, each blade is provided with a set of servo control pitch system independently for controlling the blades. Under the condition of grid-connected normal operation of the wind turbine generator, the variable pitch system controls the variable pitch motor to drive the blades to open to the 0-degree position through the driver, the blades can capture wind energy to the maximum extent so as to realize optimal power output of the wind turbine generator, when the wind speed exceeds the rated allowable wind speed of the wind turbine generator, the variable pitch system participates in control at the moment, and the blade pitch angle is controlled in real time by receiving a main control given target position or a speed command so as to enable the rotating speed of the impeller of the wind turbine generator to be rated, and the power of the wind turbine generator is optimal.
The other main function of the pitch control system is to realize main pneumatic braking when the wind power generator unit is stopped, and the pitch control system is responsible for controlling the feathering of the blades from the 0-degree position to the 87-degree safe position every time when the wind power generator is stopped normally or in emergency fault. However, in actual situations, if any fault occurs in the pitch system controller, the driver, the super capacitor and the pitch motor, the system is abnormal and the blades cannot be feathered to a safe position, and the occurrence of the failure of feathering of the blades can bring serious consequences to the safety of the wind generating set. Therefore, the detection sensor, the controller, the redundant design and the multiple safety protection of the pitch system are important preconditions for the design of the pitch safety system, and the reliability and the safety of the pitch system are also more and more important.
The pitch system of the wind generating set mainly comprises a charging unit, a driver, a pitch motor, a controller, a battery or a capacitor energy storage system. Under normal conditions, the charging unit provides electric energy for the driver, the driver controls the variable pitch motor to output mechanical torque to control the blades to rotate, and if an external power grid is powered down, the capacitor energy storage system can only be used for providing electric energy for the driver to feathers. In the emergency process, a controller, a measuring sensor, a driver, a pitch motor and a capacitive energy storage system are required to be feathered under normal conditions. Abnormal feathering can not be performed in any link in the pitch system. The wind turbine generator system comprises a controller, a sensor, a driver, a variable pitch motor and a wind turbine generator system, wherein the failure of the system can lead the blades of the wind turbine generator system to be unable to retract to a safe position, the rotation speed of the impeller of the wind turbine generator can be continuously increased under the action of external continuous wind power, the generator is overspeed, and finally, the wind turbine generator system can be broken or collapse when the load of the wind turbine generator system exceeds the limit load of a tower.
At present, most of the machine set variable pitch systems use super capacitors or batteries as emergency feathering backup energy storage modes of the variable pitch systems. The series-parallel connection of the super capacitor has the problems of single voltage equalizing, unbalanced voltage and the like; moreover, the short circuit is easy to cause fire, the internal resistance ESR of the capacitor is increased during long-term operation, the capacitance value is attenuated and reduced, and the on-line detection is difficult; and it also has the conditions of complicated operation and maintenance, overhaul danger, etc.

Detailed Description
The present application is described in detail below, examples of embodiments of the application are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals refer to the same or similar components or components having the same or similar functions throughout. Further, if detailed description of the known technology is not necessary for the illustrated features of the present application, it will be omitted. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are illustrative only and are not to be construed as limiting the application.
First, several terms related to the present application are described and explained:
The pitch angle (PITCH ANGLE), also called pitch angle, is the angle between the wind wheel plane and the pitch angle of the wind driven generator by adopting variable pitch control and adjusting the power by adjusting the windward angle of the blade; the purpose of adjusting the pitch angle of the wind driven generator is mainly that:
(1) Starting, obtaining relatively large torque under the action of wind force, and driving blades of the wind driven generator to rotate;
(2) Limiting power output, stabilizing power after rated wind speed, protecting machinery and circuit systems, and simultaneously reducing load;
(3) When the propeller is retracted, pneumatic braking is realized, so that the rotating speed of the blade is reduced rapidly, and damage caused by too large inertia force due to mechanical braking is avoided.
Elastic potential energy (Elastic Potential Energy), which is a potential mechanical energy stored in the construction of an elastic material or physical system, because work is performed to distort its volume or shape. Elastic energy occurs when compression and stretching or deformation in substantially any manner is desired.
The hydraulic damper (Hydraulic Buffer) is a hydraulic feed rate control device capable of freely adjusting the feed rate of the cylinder from high speed to low speed within a desired range.
The Backup Power supply (Backup Power) is an automatic driving quasi-line Power supply which can effectively prevent the driving circuit from having normal voltage, and can prolong the voltage required by the circuit so as to provide electric energy for the circuit to work normally.
Feathering (Feather) refers to a control process of turning blades of a wind driven generator to a parallel state (also called a safe position, in a specific angle, turning to a position direction of 89 degrees or so of the blades to take up the paddles) close to the direction of wind after the wind driven generator fails. At the moment, the wind energy absorbed by the blades of the wind driven generator is minimum, so that the wind driven generator can play a role in pneumatic braking, and the wind driven generator is safely stopped.
Aiming at the problems that the existing wind generating set uses a backup super capacitor or a battery as a backup power supply, key components of a variable pitch system fail and cannot be feathered safely under the condition of power failure of a power grid, the risk of over-speed galloping is easy to occur, and the safety and reliability of the set cannot be effectively ensured.
Based on the safety design problem, the application provides an elastic potential energy storage emergency feathering variable-pitch system of a wind generating set, which can solve the problem of the blockage caused by the problems of electric control, a driver, a super capacitor capacity and the like, which are easy to occur when a backup power supply such as a super capacitor or a battery is used at present, and improves the safety feathering reliability of the variable-pitch system in an emergency stop mode or an emergency stop mode.

Optionally, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3, in the feathering device of the wind generating set in the embodiment of the application, a bottom plate 113 is fixedly arranged on a driving arm 11, the bottom plate 113 is slidably arranged in an energy storage cylinder 13, one end of an elastic member 12 is fixed on a cylinder cover of the energy storage cylinder 13, the other end is opposite to the bottom plate 113, and the driving arm 11 is used for sliding relative to the energy storage cylinder 13, so that the bottom plate 113 extrudes the elastic member 12 under the driving of the driving arm 11; and/or the driving arm 11 penetrates through the energy storage cylinder 13 and the elastic member 12; and/or, the elastic pieces 12 are a plurality of, the bottom plate 113 and the cylinder cover are oppositely provided with a plurality of layers of bosses 114, and the elastic pieces 12 are sequentially arranged corresponding to the plurality of layers of bosses 114.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the bottom plate 113 may have a circular plate-like structure, which is fixedly disposed at a middle position of the driving arm 11. The bottom plate 113 is disposed inside the energy storage cylinder 13 and can slide relative to the energy storage cylinder 13 under the driving of the driving arm 11. The two ends of the elastic piece 12 can be respectively propped against the bottom plate 113 and the cylinder cover of the energy storage cylinder 13, and the application adopts a simpler structure to realize the basic structure of the energy storage component 1, thereby not making the structure simple and practical, and being easy to maintain.
Furthermore, the elastic member 12 may be a plurality of round springs with different diameters, and the plurality of elastic members 12 may be sleeved on the driving arm 11 from small to large, so that the structure of the present application is stable. Still further, the two opposite surfaces of the bottom plate 113 and the cylinder cover of the energy storage cylinder 113 are respectively provided with a plurality of layers of bosses 114, and the plurality of layers of bosses 114 can be correspondingly arranged with the plurality of elastic pieces 12 so as to clamp and fix the plurality of elastic pieces 12, thereby further improving the stability of the structure of the application.
It should be noted that the present application is not limited to the specific shape of the bottom plate, and the shape of the elastic member may be set corresponding to the shape of the energy storage cylinder, for example, in an embodiment, the energy storage cylinder may be a rectangular hollow structure, so the present application is not limited thereto.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, in the feathering apparatus of the wind turbine according to the embodiment of the present application, the control mechanism 2 includes a link assembly 21 and a control assembly 22.
The linkage assembly 21 is connected to the control end 112 of the drive arm 11 and the control assembly 22 is configured to lock or unlock the drive arm 11 by controlling the linkage assembly 21. The main function of the connecting rod assembly 21 is to reduce the reverse acting force of the energy storage assembly 1, and the control assembly 22 can lock and release the driving arm 11 with a small force.
However, it should be noted that the present application is not limited to the specific embodiment of the control mechanism, for example, in another embodiment, the control mechanism may be a marble mechanism, and the energy storage assembly may lock or release the driving arm by means of a snap-fit manner after completing energy storage. The control mechanism thus has a variety of embodiments, and the application is not limited in this regard.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the link assembly 21 includes a first link 211, a second link 212, a third link 213, and a fourth link 214.
One end of the first link 211 is rotatably connected to the control end 112.

As shown in fig. 2, in the energy storage state of the energy storage assembly 1, the control assembly 22 abuts against the second movable supporting point 216, an included angle is formed between the third connecting rod 213 and the fourth connecting rod 214, the included angle is smaller than 180 degrees, and the combination of the first connecting rod 211 and the second connecting rod 212 and the third connecting rod 213 are in a supporting state. It can be seen that, in the embodiment of the present application, the reaction force of the driving arm 11 can be converted into a smaller force by the connecting rod assembly 21, so that the control assembly 22 is convenient for controlling the driving arm 11, and the control efficiency of the present application can be effectively improved while the structure is simplified; in addition, due to the arrangement of the connecting rod assembly, the power of the control assembly can be effectively reduced, so that the energy storage assembly can be controlled by using a power supply with smaller power, and further the feathering operation of the blade can be smoothly completed.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the control assembly 22 may include a fork 221, a connecting rod 222, a meniscus 223, a trigger coil 224, a first return spring 225, and a second return spring 226.

When energy storage is needed, after the first return spring 225 drives the shifting fork 221 to rotate to the first preset position, the shifting fork 221 abuts against the second movable supporting point 216, after the connecting rod 222 drives the meniscus 223 to rotate to the second preset position, the triggering coil 224 adsorbs the meniscus 223 to lock the driving arm 11, and the energy storage component 1 enters an energy storage state as shown in fig. 2.

The operation principle of the pitch method of the application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
As shown in fig. 5, the pitch charger is connected to a driver, which is connected to a pitch motor.

In addition, the manual energy storage unit can also store energy for the feathering device, and the manual energy storage unit is pressed by external force to enable the operation wheel to rotate and drive the energy storage pull rod on the driving wheel after being transmitted by the gear, so that the driving arm can be pushed to gradually compress the elastic piece to finish energy storage.
In summary, the feathering device, the pitching system and the pitching method of the wind generating set provided by the embodiment of the application have the following beneficial effects:
the first, the application provides a variable pitch system and a variable pitch method which are different from other capacitors/batteries, and the application uses elastic potential energy as backup energy of the variable pitch system as driving, thereby completely avoiding unbalanced direct current voltage caused by other electric energy storage, gradually increasing internal resistance, decreasing capacitance, being incapable of working in hot and low temperature environments and being easy to short-circuit and fire. And the standby power supply is difficult to overhaul and maintain, and the driver and the variable pitch motor are failed in the feathering process, so that the variable pitch system is paralyzed and normal feathering cannot be completed.
Secondly, after the emergency fault of the pitch system occurs, the feathering device can be used as an independent operation unit and is not influenced by a driver and a pitch motor. After the variable pitch system sends out a fault state, the variable pitch motor electromagnetic brake is released after losing 24V power, the system outputs the energy stored by the feathering device of the application in a mechanical energy mode through the trigger coil, and the drive connecting rod feathers the blade to a safe position, so that the reliability and the safety of the application are ensured.
Thirdly, when the position of the blade is 0 degree and the controller is crashed suddenly in the running process of the pitch control system, the feathering device can trigger release of elastic potential energy to normally finish feathering by using a low-level control logic of power failure, so that the reliability of the pitch control system is higher.
Fourth, the drive arm links to each other with the drive connecting rod, and the pitch angle scope of changing the oar bearing rotation point can only be in the slide rail of drive arm, namely the blade pitch angle can only be in 0-90 degree scope operation, and this kind of mode has avoided other like the free 360 degrees rotatory possibility of blade completely, has stopped the blade to drive the emergence that changes the free rotation of oar bearing and lead to the apex to sweep the tower phenomenon.
Fifth, because the energy storage mode of the embodiment of the application is that the energy storage of the elastic piece can be completed by utilizing the driving force of the variable pitch motor in the blade pitch process, the resultant force of the blade force and the gravity of the blade itself can be fully utilized in the emergency feathering process, the design volume of the elastic piece can be greatly reduced, the energy storage component can be smaller, and the structure is simpler and more reliable. Therefore, the safe feathering of the blade can be realized without adding additional mechanical devices and energy storage equipment. In addition, the manual energy storage unit can provide convenience for debugging and maintenance personnel maintenance operation of the pitch system.
The sixth, the application provides the multiple safe protection feathering method at the same time, first, when the controller, the driver, or the variable pitch motor fails to feathering normally, the variable pitch system sends the power-off signal to the feathering device. If the signal of the controller is interfered, the rotating speed of the blade is faster and faster under the action of external wind force, and after the blade reaches the set speed of the overspeed switch, the overspeed switch is disconnected with the control signal to forcedly trigger the feathering device so as to finish feathering to become the final safety protection.
In addition, the embodiment of the application changes the conventional and complex layout mode of the pitch system from the design source, and thoroughly avoids the phenomena of overcurrent and incapability of segmented charging of the charger in the process of charging the super capacitor. The embodiment of the application can enable the efficiency of the charger to be higher, and does not need to use a capacitor or a battery as a standby power scheme. The variable pitch cabinet can develop towards the direction of integration and high power density, and the volume of a variable pitch system can be smaller; the embodiment of the application reduces the fault points of the emergency feathering system and avoids the problem of blockage caused by the fault of the electrical system; according to the embodiment of the application, as a plurality of safety protection methods are provided, the emergency feathering success rate of the variable pitch system is improved, and the reliability of the unit is improved.
