Description

Main beam for fan blade and manufacturing method thereof Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of wind driven generators, in particular to a main beam for a fan blade. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of manufacturing such a girder.
Background
In recent years, with the increasing environmental importance of various countries, the field of clean energy has rapidly developed in the world. The clean energy is a novel energy, and has the advantages of wide distribution, reproducibility, small environmental pollution and the like compared with the traditional fossil fuel. Wind generators are increasingly used as the most potential representative of clean energy sources, and are expected to further replace traditional fossil energy sources. Wind power is a typical clean energy, and is more and more emphasized by all parties due to the environmental protection problem in recent years. The core and soul of wind power are blade design, and the key of blade design depends on the design of a main bearing structure, namely a main beam.
The blades of the wind driven generator are important components for capturing wind energy, wherein the blades mounted on the hub of the wind driven generator are driven by the wind energy to rotate so as to generate lift force, and the lift force is further converted into torque through a transmission chain in the engine room to drive the generator to generate electricity. In the same case, the larger the impeller formed by the blades, the more wind energy that can be captured, and therefore the blades of the wind turbine tend to be longer and longer. As blades become longer and longer, clearance (clearance is the distance from the tip of the fan blade to the tower, which is an important safety metric) becomes more and more a bottleneck, and the development of new blade materials or blade designs to increase clearance is urgent. The blade spar acts as a component contributing about 90% of the flap stiffness, thereby substantially determining the amount of headroom.
Carbon fiber is a high modulus, high strength material, but at the same time is expensive. Therefore, how to reasonably introduce carbon fibers into the blade to achieve the purpose of increasing the clearance and increasing the cost of the blade as little as possible is a current important research topic of each large wind power company. Because the cost of the pure carbon fiber girder is too high, the one-time investment cost-back time is too long, and therefore the mixed fiber material is produced at the right moment. The hybrid fiber material is a composite material formed by mixing and weaving or laying a certain amount of carbon fibers and glass fibers. Hybrid fiber materials may balance performance and cost as much as possible.
However, current hybrid fiber materials have mainly the following limitations:
1. the mixing mode of the mixed fiber material is mostly carried out in the material scale, for example, the carbon fiber and the glass fiber are mixed and woven in the same fabric layer according to different proportions of fiber bundles, or one layer of the carbon fiber and one layer of the glass fiber are mixed and laid, the mixed form extremely lacks the design freedom degree, the mixed proportion of the fiber is completely restricted by a material supplier, and for blades of different models, only a fixed mixed proportion material can be selected, so that the requirement of customizing according to each model cannot be met.
2. The final mechanical properties of carbon fibers are greatly affected by the process, so a stable process route is crucial to the performance stability of the final product. The hybrid fiber material (i.e. the hybrid material of carbon fiber and glass fiber) generally adopts a perfusion process, i.e. carbon-glass hybrid fabric is perfused by overlapping multiple layers, or several layers of carbon fiber and several layers of glass fiber cloth are perfused by overlapping. However, the infusion process of such materials is prone to defects such as bubbles and wrinkles, which can compromise the final performance.
There is a need for a new fan main beam or main beam material that at least partially eliminates the above limitations.
Disclosure of Invention
The object of the invention is to provide a main girder for a fan blade and a method for producing the same, by means of which a more economical, better-performing and more maneuverable hybrid form can be provided with a reduced amount of carbon fibres, so that the required stiffness and the service life of the main girder are increased.
In a first aspect of the invention, this task is solved by a main beam for a fan blade, comprising: one or more carbon fiber pultruded panels arranged along the length direction of the blade; one or more glass fiber pultruded panels arranged along the length direction of the blade; the carbon fiber pultrusion plate and the glass fiber pultrusion plate are combined in one or more modes and mixed in one or more proportions, so that the mixed carbon fiber pultrusion plate and the glass fiber pultrusion plate have a positive mixing effect and/or a bending and twisting coupling effect; and the first perfusion material is used for infiltrating the carbon fiber pultrusion plate and the glass fiber pultrusion plate.
In the present invention, the term "main beam" refers to an elongated structure in the shells on both sides of the blade for reinforcing the blade. Typically, the two side girders are connected to webs located inside the blade to support the blade interior space. The carbon fiber pultrusion plate is a material formed by curing carbon fibers through resin impregnation and pultrusion processes, and the glass fiber pultrusion plate is a material formed by curing glass fibers through resin impregnation and pultrusion processes. Preferably, the carbon fibre pultruded sheet and the glass fibre pultruded sheet in the main beam together form a continuous main beam surface having a desired curvature if necessary. The term "infiltrated" refers to the pouring material being poured into and at least partially bonded to the pouring object and finally cured. In addition, the second potting material for forming the carbon fiber pultrusion plate can be the same as the first potting material and can also be other potting materials, and similarly, the third potting material for forming the glass fiber pultrusion plate can be the same as the first potting material and can also be other potting materials; the carbon fiber pultruded panel and the glass fiber pultruded panel may be arranged adjacent to each other in a direction perpendicular to the thickness of the main beam, such as in the length and width directions of the main beam to form a footprint of the main beam.

Similarly, one or more glass fiber pultrusion plates and/or one or more carbon fiber pultrusion plates can be arranged above, below, on the left, right, in front and at the back of each glass fiber pultrusion plate. Through adjusting the different mixed scheme, the mixed size and the mixed proportion of carbon fiber pultrusion plate and glass fiber pultrusion plate, the rigidity of the girder can be adjusted, so that the glass fiber pultrusion plate and the carbon fiber pultrusion plate can realize the expected waving rigidity after the secondary pouring together, and the expected curved surface can be formed better.
In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the carbon fiber pultruded panel is formed by curing the second potting material, and the glass fiber pultruded panel is formed by curing the third potting material.

When the chamfers of the two pultrusion plates face to two sides, the two pultrusion plates are butted to just form slope angle matching, a plurality of layers of fiber cloth are arranged between the two plates, the gap between the two pultrusion plates is not in place, the fitting degree is better, the friction coefficient is increased, the two pultrusion plates do not move in a dislocation way, and the local rigidity is enhanced; in addition, the upper surface of the upper plate and the lower surface of the lower plate are respectively provided with a layer of fiber cloth and a layer of fiber cloth, and the fiber cloth form a local connection design integrally, so that the upper and lower surfaces of the two pultruded plates are smoother. The main beam is composed of two types of pultrusion plate main bodies and connecting parts of the two types of pultrusion plate main bodies in the thickness direction, so that more mobility is provided in the direction vertical to the thickness direction of the main beam, such as the chord direction; these activities facilitate the formation of the desired surface shape, such as a curved surface, of the main beam material prior to pouring, and thus can be cured after pouring to maintain the surface shape.

Most conventional main beams are made of glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP) and are molded by injection in a separate main beam mold to form a preform, which is then placed in a shell mold to be assembled with other materials into an integral blade shell.
Most of the glass fiber main beams in the market are pure glass fiber main beams, and the glass fiber materials cannot meet the requirements of long blades on rigidity above 80m of the blades, so that the glass fiber blades are often extremely heavy, and the rigidity problem can be solved with high efficiency by adding the carbon fiber materials. However, the existing carbon fiber main beam is only pultruded by pure carbon fibers or poured by the pure carbon fibers, and the price is extremely high; even carbon glass mixes the girder, also be mostly carbon glass and mix the material level of weaving or mixing the laying and mix the form, and do not carry out carbon material and glass fiber material's row that mixes in higher structural design dimension. In addition, even though individual patents mention a hybrid design of carbon fiber and glass fiber pultrusion, they do not address the detailed design issues of the actual two material connection and are deficient in operability.
The object of the invention is to provide a main girder for a fan blade and a method for producing the same, by means of which a more economical, better-performing and more maneuverable hybrid form can be provided with a reduced amount of carbon fibres, so that the required stiffness and the service life of the main girder are increased.
In order to realize the idea, the invention provides a main beam for a fan blade and a manufacturing method thereof, which comprises one or more carbon fiber pultrusion plates, a carbon fiber pultrusion plate and a carbon fiber pultrusion plate, wherein the carbon fiber pultrusion plates are arranged along the length direction of the blade; one or more glass fiber pultruded panels arranged along a length direction of the blade, wherein the carbon fiber pultruded panels and the glass fiber pultruded panels are mixedly arranged such that the mixed carbon fiber pultruded panels and glass fiber pultruded panels have a positive intermixing effect and/or a kink coupling effect; and; the first filling material is used for infiltrating the carbon fiber pultrusion plate and the glass fiber pultrusion plate.
