Method for monitoring natural frequency of blades of wind turbine generator
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of wind power generation, in particular to a method for monitoring natural frequency of a blade of a wind turbine generator.
Background
The blades of the wind turbine generator set absorb wind energy, and absorb the wind energy through the blades to drive the whole transmission chain to rotate, so that mechanical energy is converted into electric energy. Under the target requirement of carbon peak carbon neutralization and the background of flat price on-line, a wind turbine generator is developed towards the direction of large megawatt, long blades and high towers, the length of a single blade reaches the hundred-meter level, and once accidents such as breakage or tower sweeping happen, the normal operation of the wind turbine generator is seriously influenced, so that the loss in the aspects of safety, economy and the like is caused, and therefore the blade needs to be monitored and maintained mainly.
When the wind turbine generator system operates, the blade can shake in the process of absorbing wind energy, if the shaking frequency is consistent with the excitation frequency, destructive influence can be generated on the blade, and therefore the pitch control logic needs to be controlled to avoid the natural frequency interval of the blade. The significance of the monitoring of the natural frequency of the blade is as follows: 1. judging the running state of the blade so as to facilitate maintenance and overhaul; 2. the detection and feedback of the pitch variation process of the wind turbine generator are realized on the side surface; 3. the stable, safe and reliable operation of the unit in the operation process is ensured.
The existing method for monitoring the natural frequency of the fan unit blade does not consider that after the blade is lengthened, the amplitude of different positions of the blade is different, the blade cannot be measured in a three-dimensional mode, and with the wide application of the long blade, the motion state of the blade in different modes cannot be represented simply by the vibration state on one height, so that the state of the blade cannot be judged and processed, and the variable pitch motion cannot be effectively adjusted. Therefore, the invention provides a method for monitoring the natural frequency of a wind turbine blade.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for monitoring the natural frequency of a blade of a wind turbine, which is used for monitoring the natural frequency of the blade of the wind turbine, and the amplitudes of the blade in different lengths are different, so that a double-shaft vibration acceleration sensor is arranged at the position of the blade in different lengths, and the blade can be measured in a three-dimensional manner.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a wind turbine generator blade natural frequency monitoring method comprises the following steps:
step (1): three groups of double-shaft vibration acceleration sensors are arranged on the blades;
step (2): vibration signals in all directions at different positions are respectively measured through three groups of double-shaft vibration acceleration sensors;
and (3): vibration signals measured by the double-shaft vibration acceleration sensor are stored in the data acquisition instrument and reach the wind field monitoring server through the wind field ring network;
and (4): obtaining the natural frequency of the blade under each vibration mode by utilizing data measured by a double-shaft vibration acceleration sensor through Fourier transform and mode analysis;
and (5): and (4) comparing the value of the natural frequency of each step of the actually measured blade obtained in the step (4) with a preset frequency value by the wind field monitoring server, and judging the state of the blade of the wind generating set.
Preferably, three vibration acceleration sensors are arranged on the blade in the step (1), and the three vibration acceleration sensors are respectively located at positions which are 30%, 50% and 80% of the length of the blade away from the blade root.
Preferably, the blades of the wind generating set under each region in the step (2) are provided with a double-shaft vibration acceleration sensor for measuring vibration acceleration in two directions, wherein one direction is a direction perpendicular to the plane of the impeller when the blades are fully unfolded, and the other direction is a direction perpendicular to the blades in the plane of the impeller when the blades are fully unfolded.
Preferably, the logic for determining in step (5) is: when the frequency of the wind generating set blade exceeds the frequency preset value and fluctuates up and down by 20%, the wind generating set blade is judged to be in an abnormal state, and a warning signal of the abnormality of the wind generating set blade is sent out; and if the floating standard is not exceeded, judging that the blade of the wind generating set is in a normal state.
Preferably, when the method is used for monitoring and judging the three-blade wind generating set, the method further comprises the following steps:
and (6): obtaining the modal characteristics of each blade and the natural frequency of each blade in the mode through the step (4);
and (7): calculating the deviation rate of the modal natural frequency values of the same order among the blades;
and (8): and judging whether the blade normally operates according to the deviation rate.
Preferably, the modal characteristics and the natural frequency of each blade in the step (6) include:
P1M1(pitch1, mode1) -first order modal natural frequency value of blade 1;
P1M2 — second order modal natural frequency value of blade 1;
P1M3 — the third order modal natural frequency value of blade 1;
P2M1 — first order modal natural frequency value of blade 2;
P2M2 — second order modal natural frequency value of blade 2;

P3M1 — first order modal natural frequency value of blade 3;
P3M2 — second order modal natural frequency value of blade 3;
P3M 3-the third order modal natural frequency value of the blade 3.
Preferably, in step (7), RM1P12 ═ P1M2-P2M1|/P1M 2; RM1P12 refers to the first order modal natural frequency deviation ratio of blade 1 and blade 2; by the same calculation method, other deviation ratios are obtained: RM1P13, RM1P23, RM2P12, RM2P13, RM2P23, RM3P12, RM3P13, and RM3P 23.
Preferably, in step (8), the judgment logic is as follows:
if 4 or more than 4 deviation rates of the obtained 9 deviation rate values exceed 15%, the blades of the unit are considered to have problems.
The running state of the blades is judged by longitudinal comparison with a preset frequency value and transverse comparison of the deviation rate of the inherent frequency value between the blades, and the purposes of monitoring the blades and ensuring the stable running of the unit are achieved.
The invention has the advantages that the double-shaft vibration acceleration sensor is arranged at the position with different lengths of the blade in consideration of different amplitudes of the blade with different lengths, so that the three-dimensional measurement of the blade can be realized, and the accuracy is enhanced;
the method fully considers the mixed vibration of multiple modes existing in the actual operation of the long-blade unit, and effectively monitors the natural frequency conditions under different modes by reasonably setting the measuring position of the sensor;
whether the blade is in an abnormal state or not is judged through two or more groups of data, so that the accuracy of the result is ensured, and false alarm is prevented;
the purpose of monitoring the running state of the blade is achieved through two judging modes, namely the transverse judging mode and the longitudinal judging mode, and the method is scientific and reasonable. The method not only considers the difference with an actual value, but also considers the deviation between every two blades, and is easy to realize and high in use value.

Example 1:
illustrated with a single blade:
(1) the blades of the wind generating set under each region are provided with a double-shaft vibration acceleration sensor for measuring vibration acceleration in X and Y directions, as shown in fig. 1, the X direction is a direction perpendicular to the plane of an impeller when the blades are completely unfolded, the Y direction is a direction perpendicular to the blades in the plane of the impeller when the impeller is completely unfolded, the motion state of the blades of the wind generating set is fully considered, as shown in fig. 2, the vibration acceleration sensors are respectively arranged at positions which are 30%, 50% and 80% of the length of the blades away from the blade root and are respectively marked as A, B, C;
(2) vibration signals in all directions of different positions are respectively measured through three groups of sensors;
(3) the data measured by the double-shaft vibration acceleration sensor is stored in a data acquisition instrument and can reach a wind field monitoring server through a wind field ring network;
(4) according to the modal characteristics of the blade, specific analysis is carried out through parameters measured by a sensor at A, B, C, and the natural frequency condition of each vibration mode is analyzed;
(5) the wind field monitoring server carries out Fourier transform calculation according to the data received in the step (3) to obtain a value of the natural frequency of the actually measured blade, the value is compared with a preset frequency value to judge the frequency of the blade of the wind generating set, when the frequency of the blade of the wind generating set exceeds the preset frequency value and floats up to 20% (an empirical value), the blade of the wind generating set is judged to be in an abnormal state, a warning signal of the abnormality of the blade of the wind generating set is sent, and the blade of the wind generating set is judged to be in a normal state when the frequency of the blade of the wind generating set does not exceed a floating standard;
further, when judging whether the frequency value exceeds the preset value or not in the step (5), the frequency value measured by the vibration acceleration of two or more blade length regions fluctuates up and down by more than 20% and is considered as an 'abnormal state';
example 2:
the steps (1) - (5) are directed at the monitoring and judging condition of a single blade, and because the wind turbine generator generally has three blades (two or four blades, the patent refers to the description of the three blades with the most extensive application), whether the two blades are normal or not can be mutually judged. The judgment method comprises the following steps:
1. obtaining the modal characteristics of each blade and the natural frequency of each blade in the mode through the steps (4) and (5);
P1M1(pitch1, mode1) -first order modal natural frequency value of blade 1;
P1M2 — second order modal natural frequency value of blade 1;
P1M3 — the third order modal natural frequency value of blade 1;
P2M1 — first order modal natural frequency value of blade 2;
P2M2 — second order modal natural frequency value of blade 2;
P2M 3-third order modal natural frequency value of blade 2;
P3M1 — first order modal natural frequency value of blade 3;
P3M2 — second order modal natural frequency value of blade 3;
P3M3 — the third order modal natural frequency value of the blade 3;
2. calculating the deviation rate of the modal natural frequency values of the same order among the blades;
RM1P12=|P1M2-P2M1|/P1M2;
RM1P12(ratio of mode1 between pitch1 and pitch2), the first order modal natural frequency deviation ratio of blade 1 and blade 2;
the same calculation method obtains other deviation ratios:
RM1P13, RM1P23, RM2P12, RM2P13, RM2P23, RM3P12, RM3P13, and RM3P 23. That is, the above 9 deviation values can be obtained when the unit impeller rotates once.
3. Judging whether the blade normally operates according to the deviation rate, wherein the judgment logic is as follows:
if 4 or more deviation values of 9 obtained deviation values exceed 15%, the blade of the unit is considered to have a problem, and the unit is considered to be in an "abnormal state".
The running state of the blades is judged by longitudinal comparison with a preset frequency value and transverse comparison of the deviation rate of the inherent frequency value between the blades, and the purposes of monitoring the blades and ensuring the stable running of the unit are achieved.
