As shown in fig. 3 and 4, wherein calculating the volume of liquid that needs to be adjusted when each first ballast cavity reaches the desired weight comprises:
vertical force balance: the whole floating fan satisfies: Σf Floating device =∑G Heavy weight +∑G Mooring of +∑G The pressure of the ballast is controlled, wherein Σf Floating device The floating fan is subjected to buoyancy sum, sigma G Heavy weight Is the sum of the gravity and Sigma G of the floating upright post, the supporting upright post and the wind turbine generator Mooring of Sum, Σg, of the weights of all mooring lines Ballast for ballast The sum of the weights of all the first and second ballast chambers;

The weight G required for each first ballast Ballast for ballast The torque balance is calculated and obtained;
the adjusted liquid volume V required for each of said first ballasts Adjustment of =V-V Before ballasting Wherein V is the calculated yaw angle α, the actual required liquid volume of each first ballast cavity in equilibrium, V Before ballasting To re-balance the liquid volume in each first ballast cavity.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, the derivation is performed by taking an example that three floating columns are provided and are uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction of the support column, wherein the action points of the three floating columns are respectively denoted as A, B, C, and the action points of the support column are denoted as D:
when the yaw angle is alpha and the floating fan is in a balanced state,
in the vertical direction, the gravity and buoyancy of the whole floating fan are balanced:
∑f floating device =∑G Heavy weight +∑G Mooring of +∑G The pressure of the ballast is controlled, wherein Σf Floating device The floating fan is subjected to buoyancy sum, sigma G Heavy weight Is the sum of the gravity and Sigma G of the floating upright post, the supporting upright post and the wind turbine generator Mooring of Sigma G for the weight of all mooring lines Ballast for ballast The sum of the weights of all the first and second ballast chambers; therefore, ΣG Ballast for ballast =∑f Floating device -∑G Heavy weight -∑G Mooring of

Point D in fig. 4 satisfies the moment balance to the y-axis: Σmyd=0,
namely, (f) Floating A -G Heavy A -G Mooring 1 -G Ballast A )·AD-(f Float B +f Floating C -G Weight B -G Heavy C -G Mooring 1 -G Mooring 2 -G Ballast B -G Ballast C )·DF+f Push x ·(DE+EG)=0;
Meanwhile, the point D meets the balance of bending moment on the x axis: Σ MxD =0,
namely, (f) Float B -G Weight B -G Mooring B -G Ballast B )·CF-(f Floating C -G Heavy C -G Mooring C -G Ballast C )·FB+f Push y ·(DE+EG)=0;
In practice, the weights of the wind turbine, the three floating columns, and the weight of all mooring lines are determined values, and in addition, the formula: AD. DF, DE, EG, CF and FB are both lengths of piping and thus are also determined values;
and f Push-out Can be calculated by measuring wind speed and wind direction, and concretely, f Push-out The numerical value of (2) can be obtained by measuring the wind speed at the center of the hub of the wind turbine, for example, by measuring a wind speed sensor and combining the diameter of the whole wind wheel, so as to obtain the numerical value by calculation; and f Push-out The direction of (2) can be obtained through a wind vane;
and combine with G Ballast A =m Liquid g and f Float 1 =(m Heavy A +m LiquidLiquid V Row of rows Wherein m is Liquid For the mass of liquid in the first ballast chamber, m Heavy A Is the mass of the first floating column A, V Row of rows The volume of the drain of the first floating column after being filled with the desired volume of liquid;
furthermore, m Liquid =ρ Liquid V,V Row of rows When the floating fan is positioned in the sea, the liquid in the first ballast cavity is also seawater, and V is the volume required by the first ballast cavity of the first floating upright A;
in practice, the V Row of rows The water drainage can be obtained by measuring, for example, scale can be arranged on the floating upright post, the draft of the first floating upright post is observed, and then the water drainage is calculatedVolume V Row of rows
For automatic control, a detector for detecting the draft of the first floating column may preferably be provided, and the drain volume V may be automatically calculated Row of rows
In summary, the volume V required in the first ballast cavity of the first floating column A can be calculated and compared with the volume V of the liquid in the first ballast cavity of the first floating column A in the state of equilibrium again Before ballasting Calculating the required regulated volume V in the first ballast cavity of the first floating column A Adjustment of ,V Adjustment of =V-V Before ballasting
The calculated difference is the adjustment amount, the calculated positive and negative values are the adjustment directions, and when the calculated difference is positive, liquid needs to be added into the first ballast cavity of the first floating column A, and when the calculated difference is negative, liquid needs to be extracted from the first ballast cavity of the first floating column A.
It should be noted that the adjustment volume of the liquid volume in the other first ballast chambers is the same as the calculation process described above, and will not be described here again.
Similarly, when only the second connecting channel is used, the liquid volumes of the first and second ballast chambers are adjusted as well with reference to the above calculation formula.
After considering the yaw rate, the principle of selecting a water pump is as follows: under the extreme fastest yaw working condition, the bidirectional water suction pump can still synchronously complete the active ballast water adjusting function under the least adverse condition of single system damage.
For example: the 90-degree yaw takes 8 minutes, namely 480 seconds; the 180 degree yaw takes 16 minutes, i.e. 960 seconds,
the minimum functional requirements that the bi-directional suction pump needs to achieve are:
Max{|G ballast A _t°-G Ballast A _(90+t)°|/480,|G Ballast B _t°-G Ballast B _(90+t)°|/480,|G Ballast C _t°-G Ballast C _(90+t)°|/480,|G Ballast A _t°-G Ballast A _(180+t)°|/960,|G Ballast B _t°-G Ballast B _(180+t)°|/960,|G Ballast C _t°-G Ballast C _(180+t)°|/960},
Wherein t is any angle.
