The invention discloses an operation control method and device for a
vertical axis wind
turbine generator, and belongs to the technical field of
wind power generation. The method comprises the steps that a
pitch angle of a lower blade is driven to be gradually increased to a preset angle at a preset angular speed through a variable
pitch controller; when the rotating speed of the wind wheel reaches the
cut-in rotating speed, the optimal
tip speed ratio is tracked until the rotating speed of the wind wheel rises to the rated rotating speed; when the rotating speed of the wind wheel reaches the rated rotating speed, the rotating speed of the wind wheel is stabilized at the rated rotating speed; when the driving torque under the action of the
aerodynamic load continuously exceeds the rated torque of the generator and the rotating speed of the generator reaches an early-warning rotating speed threshold value, a shutdown control strategy is triggered; and under the shutdown control strategy, the connection between the generator and the
power grid is
cut off, and mechanical braking is applied, so that the wind wheel stops rotating. According to the technical scheme, smooth starting of the wind wheel, stable operation at the rated rotating speed and safe shutdown in the fault state are achieved, the starting and stopping capacity and power stability of the unit are effectively improved, the
wind speed application range is expanded, and it is guaranteed that the whole-
process operation of the unit is safe and reliable.
