Therefore, a method for measuring the clearance distance to measure the unbalance degree has appeared.

The laser radar scheme and the millimeter wave radar scheme are commonly installed at the bottom of the cabin, and the laser beam is scanned to the blade tip, and the output result is stable and reliable, but the laser radar is easily scanned to the water droplets or particulate matter in the air in rain, fog, dust weather, resulting in unstable measurement results, in addition, the laser cost is high and needs to be maintained frequently, the calibration method is complex, and the data cannot be intuitively traced back, in addition, the long distance measurement precision of the laser is insufficient.
[0004] The visual scheme is installed below the rudder, and the image of the blade and the tower is collected by a high-definition camera and a light supplementing device at a fixed angle. The edge detection is generally used to identify the coordinates of the blade tip position and the tower center on the image, and then the pixel difference between the two points is calculated, and the three-dimensional distance is calculated through a certain proportion, so as to obtain the clearance distance. This scheme is convenient for tracing back, and the calibration is simple, but the current traditional edge detection visual algorithm is greatly affected by rain, fog and dust, and when the fan blade has a shadow, the accuracy is not high, and a separate algorithm processing unit is needed, which has high computing power cost.

[0028] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present application more apparent and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings of the specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor should be within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0029] Embodiment 1, refer to Figs. 1-3 For an embodiment of the present application, the embodiment provides a fan blade clearance distance monitoring method, comprising S1-S7: S1, install the monitoring device at a preset position of the fan tower drum to obtain a fan blade movement image.
[0030] The monitoring device is designed with high integration, and components such as a high-speed camera, an infrared fill light, an AI low-light enhancement module and a temperature sensor are integrated in a protective shell with a size of 192mm*116mm*106mm and a protection level of IP65, and the monitoring device is installed at a preset position below the fan cabin.
[0031] The step of obtaining the fan blade movement image includes S1.1-S1.3. S1.1, collect ambient light information data, and establish a light evaluation model based on the ambient light information data to obtain light compensation parameters; In this embodiment, the integrated light sensor collects the current ambient light intensity value, and the image quality analysis algorithm evaluates the contrast and definition parameters of the image. The light evaluation model classifies the environment according to the light intensity range: when the light intensity is below 500 lux, it is determined as night mode, 500-2000 lux as low light mode, and 2000 lux or above as normal light mode. According to different light modes, the light compensation parameters are calculated, including the opening intensity of the infrared fill light and the enhancement coefficient of the AI low-light enhancement algorithm.
[0032] S1.2, collect blade movement speed information data, and establish a high-speed movement shooting strategy based on the blade movement speed information data to obtain camera exposure parameters.
[0033] By analyzing the fan speed information and the time of the blade passing through the field angle, the blade movement speed is calculated. When the blade linear speed exceeds 80m / s, it is determined as a high-speed movement state. The high-speed movement shooting strategy automatically adjusts the shutter speed and ISO sensitivity parameters of the camera according to the blade speed: for high-speed movement state, the shutter speed is set to 1 / 2000s or above, and the ISO value is appropriately increased to ensure image brightness, ensuring that at least 10 clear blade tip image data can be collected by the camera at the maximum speed of the blade.
[0034] S1.3, combine the light compensation parameters and the camera exposure parameters to control the monitoring device to obtain the fan blade movement image.
[0035] The controller fuses the light compensation parameters and the camera exposure parameters. When detecting rain, fog, dust and other adverse weather conditions, the infrared fill light is automatically started and adjusted to the corresponding brightness, and the AI low-light enhancement function is activated for real-time image processing. Through this adaptive control method, high-quality fan blade movement images can be obtained in complex environmental conditions such as night, light rain, dust and low haze, and the image frame rate is maintained at 25Hz, meeting the requirements of subsequent blade tip identification and clearance distance calculation.
[0036] S2, using a deep learning network to process the fan blade motion image, identifying the position coordinates of the blade tip in the fan blade motion image.
[0037] The progressive blade tip identification algorithm based on deep learning is used to process the fan blade motion image. The deep learning network uses an improved yolov8 architecture, which integrates an attention mechanism in the backbone feature extraction module and is optimized for training high-speed and small target fan blade tips.
[0038] The step of identifying the position coordinates of the blade tip in the fan blade motion image includes S2.1-S2.2: S2.1, using a deep learning network algorithm to reduce the interference of environmental factors through Zero-DCE, and the deep learning network algorithm identifies the blade tip candidate points.
[0039] S2.2, positioning through the blade tip candidate point information data combined with the constraint condition to obtain the blade tip position coordinates.
[0040] Multiple constraint conditions are used to screen and accurately position the blade tip candidate points. The constraint conditions include: geometric constraint (the blade tip must be located at the end of the blade contour), position constraint (the distance from the blade tip to the blade root should be within a reasonable range), and angle constraint (the angle difference between adjacent blades should be close to 120°). By calculating the matching degree of each candidate point with the constraint condition, the point with the highest matching degree is selected as the final blade tip position coordinates. When multiple blades appear in the image at the same time, the blade identity is identified according to the blade motion direction and time sequence relationship to ensure that each blade tip position coordinates can be correctly corresponded to the corresponding blade number. Finally, the accurate blade tip position coordinates data is output, and the coordinate accuracy can reach ±2 pixels.
[0041] S3, obtaining the inclination angle of the monitoring device and the Beidou satellite positioning data.
[0042] In this embodiment, the high-precision inclination angle instrument integrated in the monitoring device is used to collect the shaking angle data of the cabin in real time. The measurement range of the inclination angle instrument is -15° to +15°, the measurement accuracy is 0.01°, and the output frequency is 10Hz. At the same time, the Beidou satellite positioning system obtains the three-dimensional coordinate data of the tower cylinder at a frequency of 1Hz, and the positioning accuracy can reach 2-5 meters. The inclination angle data and Beidou satellite positioning data are transmitted to the controller in real time for subsequent processing.
[0043] S4, combining the inclination angle and Beidou satellite positioning data, and converting the blade tip position coordinates into actual spatial coordinates according to the pre-calibrated parameters.
[0044] The step of converting the blade tip position coordinates into actual spatial coordinates includes S4.1-S4.3: S4.1, establish a pixel-to-space mapping model through coordinate conversion relationship information data in the pre-calibration parameters, and obtain a static conversion parameter.
[0045] A pixel-to-space mapping model is established by using pre-calibration parameters. The pre-calibration parameters include a camera intrinsic parameter matrix K (focal length fx=2000 pixels, fy=2000 pixels, principal point coordinates cx=960 pixels, cy=540 pixels), a distance D=50 meters from a blade tip to the camera, a position of a tower drum center in a camera coordinate system, and the like. Through these calibration parameters, a basic coordinate conversion relationship is established, and a static conversion parameter is obtained, which can convert pixel coordinates into three-dimensional space coordinates in an ideal state.
[0046] S4.2, correct the static conversion parameter through dynamic coordinate system compensation data, and obtain a dynamic conversion parameter.
[0047] The obtaining step of the dynamic coordinate system compensation data includes A1-A3. A1, obtain an angle deviation value through difference calculation of the inclination instrument angle and reference angle data.
[0048] The inclination instrument measures the angle change of the cabin in three axial directions in real time. Real-time angle data of the current inclination instrument is obtained: a pitch angle is 2.3°, a roll angle is 1.8°, and a yaw angle is 0.5°.
[0049] The reference angle data recorded at the time of calibration is read at the same time: a pitch angle is 0°, a roll angle is 0°, and a yaw angle is 0°. The angle deviation values of the respective axial directions are calculated one by one: a pitch angle deviation value , a roll angle deviation value , and a yaw angle deviation value . These angle deviation values reflect the spatial attitude change of the cabin relative to the calibration moment.
[0050] A2, obtain a position deviation value through difference calculation of the Beidou satellite positioning data and reference coordinate data.
[0051] The Beidou satellite positioning system provides real-time three-dimensional coordinates of the tower drum in the geodetic coordinate system. The current Beidou positioning data is obtained: the X coordinate is 1000235.6 m, the Y coordinate is 2000187.3 m, and the Z coordinate is 85.2 m. The reference coordinate data recorded at the time of calibration is read at the same time: the X coordinate is 1000234.0 m, the Y coordinate is 2000186.0 m, and the Z coordinate is 85.0 m.
[0052] The position deviation values of the respective coordinate axes are calculated: an X-axis position deviation value , a Y-axis position deviation value , Z-axis position deviation value These position deviation values represent the spatial displacement of the tower drum relative to the calibration position.
[0053] A3, construct an angle rotation matrix through the angle deviation value, construct a position translation matrix through the position deviation value, and combine the angle rotation matrix and the position translation matrix to obtain dynamic coordinate system compensation data.
[0054] First, construct an angle rotation matrix according to the angle deviation value.
[0055] Convert the angle deviation value from degrees to radians: pitch angle deviation value radians , roll angle deviation value radians , yaw angle deviation value radians . Construct a 3x3 rotation matrix R in the order of ZYX Euler angles.
[0056] Next, construct a position translation matrix according to the position deviation value. The position deviation values ΔX = 1.6 m, ΔY = 1.3 m, and ΔZ = 0.2 m in the X, Y, and Z directions form a 3x1 translation vector T.
[0057] Finally, combine the 3x3 angle rotation matrix R and the 3x1 translation vector T to form a 4x4 homogeneous transformation matrix. The structure of the transformation matrix is: ; This 4x4 transformation matrix contains complete spatial attitude change and position change information, which is used as dynamic coordinate system compensation data for subsequent coordinate conversion correction calculations.
[0058] S4.3, perform three-dimensional space projection calculation by combining the tip position coordinates with the dynamic conversion parameters to obtain the actual spatial coordinates of the tip.
[0059] By performing complete conversion calculation from tip pixel coordinates to actual spatial coordinates. First, the system obtains the tip position coordinates identified in step S2, for example, the pixel coordinates are , is the horizontal direction, is the vertical direction.
[0060] First, perform pixel coordinate to camera coordinate system conversion. Use the inverse matrix of the camera intrinsic parameter matrix to convert the pixel coordinates to normalized coordinates in the camera coordinate system : ; ; wherein , is the principal point coordinate, , is a focal length parameter.
[0061] Next, combined with the depth distance parameter D = 50 meters, the three-dimensional coordinates of the blade tip in the camera coordinate system are calculated: X-axis three-dimensional coordinates: ; Y-axis three-dimensional coordinates: ; Z-axis three-dimensional coordinates: .
[0062] Then, the coordinates are corrected by dynamic coordinate system compensation data. The three-dimensional coordinates in the camera coordinate system are expressed as homogeneous coordinates form: ; The 4x4 transformation matrix obtained in step S4.2 is used to transform the coordinates to obtain the homogeneous coordinate vector of the blade tip in the world coordinate system : .
[0063] The specific calculation process is: perform dot product operation on each row of the transformation matrix and the homogeneous coordinate vector. After matrix operation, the corrected homogeneous coordinates in the world coordinate system are obtained, and the first three components are taken as the actual spatial coordinates of the blade tip.
[0064] Finally, the actual spatial coordinates of the blade tip are output, for example, X = 1000187.3 m, Y = 2000156.8 m, Z = 125.6 m. This coordinate has completed dynamic compensation of cabin shaking and tower displacement, and can accurately reflect the true three-dimensional position of the blade tip in the ground coordinate system. The accuracy of the entire calculation process depends on the accuracy of the camera calibration parameters and the measurement accuracy of the sensor, and the positioning accuracy can usually reach sub-meter level.
[0065] S5, calculate the clearance distance of each blade tip to the wind turbine tower. Specifically, S5.1-S5.3 are included: S5.1, perform three-dimensional spatial distance calculation on the blade tip actual spatial coordinates and the tower center spatial coordinates in the pre-calibrated parameters to obtain a straight line distance value from the blade tip to the tower center, wherein the straight line distance value is calculated by a three-dimensional Euclidean distance formula.
[0066] The three-dimensional distance calculation is performed on the blade tip actual spatial coordinates calculated in step S4 and the pre-calibrated tower center spatial coordinates. Assuming that the blade tip actual spatial coordinates are , and the tower center spatial coordinates are . The three-dimensional Euclidean distance formula is used for calculation: ; get the straight-line distance value from the blade tip to the tower center = 40.7 meters.
[0067] S5.2, calculate the clearance distance correction by subtracting the tower radius parameter in the pre-calibration parameters from the straight-line distance value, and obtain a preliminary clearance distance value.
[0068] Subtract the pre-calibration tower radius parameter from the straight-line distance value to correct the clearance distance. Assuming that the pre-calibration tower radius parameter is , the clearance distance correction calculation is performed, i.e. subtract the tower radius parameter from the straight-line distance value, to obtain 38.2 meters.
[0069] This calculation result represents the shortest distance from the blade tip to the tower surface, i.e. the preliminary clearance distance value is 38.2 meters.
[0070] S5.3, perform three-dimensional space compensation calculation by combining the preliminary clearance distance value with the dynamic coordinate system compensation data, and obtain the clearance distance of each blade tip to the wind turbine tower.
[0071] Combine the preliminary clearance distance value with the dynamic coordinate system compensation data to perform the final three-dimensional space compensation calculation. Considering the possible slight influence of nacelle sway and tower displacement on distance measurement, apply the dynamic compensation information obtained in step A3 for correction. Assuming that the current compensation correction coefficient is 0.98.
[0072] The final clearance distance is the product of the preliminary clearance distance value and the compensation correction coefficient, so the output result is 37.4 meters. Output the final clearance distance of the blade tip to the wind turbine tower as 37.4 meters. This result has considered the influence of dynamic factors such as nacelle sway and tower displacement, and can accurately reflect the actual safety distance between the blade tip and the tower. Repeat the calculation process for each identified blade tip to obtain the clearance distance data of all blade tips.
[0073] S6, filter the clearance distance of each blade, calculate the difference value of the clearance distance of each blade, and take the maximum value in the difference value as the imbalance degree of the impeller.
[0074] The step of calculating the imbalance degree of the impeller includes S6.1-S6.3: S6.1, group the clearance distance of each blade tip to the wind turbine tower according to the blade number, and obtain the clearance distance value corresponding to each blade.
[0075] In this embodiment, the clearance distance data is grouped according to the timing and angular position relationship of the blades appearing in the image. Assuming that the fan has three blades, each blade is assigned a number through blade trajectory and angle recognition: blade 1, blade 2, and blade 3. In a complete rotation cycle, the clearance distance data of each blade tip is collected: the clearance distance value sequence corresponding to blade 1 , the clearance distance value sequence corresponding to blade 2 , and the clearance distance value sequence corresponding to blade 3 . These data are stored and managed separately according to blade number.
[0076] S6.2, the clearance distance values corresponding to each blade are respectively subjected to digital filtering processing to obtain stable clearance distance values for each blade, wherein the digital filtering processing eliminates measurement noise by weighted average calculation of the clearance distance values measured continuously multiple times for a single blade.
[0077] The clearance distance value sequence of each blade is respectively subjected to digital filtering processing. A weighted average filtering algorithm is used, and the weight coefficients from new to old are . Filtering calculation is performed on blade 1: Stable clearance distance value 1 = 37.4 x 0.3 + 37.6 x 0.25 + 37.3 x 0.2 + 37.5 x 0.15 + 37.4 x 0.1 = 37.45 m; Filtering calculation is performed on blade 2: stable clearance distance value 2 = 35.8 x 0.3 + 35.9 x 0.25 + 35.7 x 0.2 + 35.8 x 0.15 + 35.9 x 0.1 = 35.80 m; Filtering calculation is performed on blade 3: stable clearance distance value 3 = 38.1 x 0.3 + 38.3 x 0.25 + 38.0 x 0.2 + 38.2 x 0.15 + 38.1 x 0.1 = 38.13 m.
[0078] Through filtering processing, the stable clearance distance values of the three blades are obtained: 37.45 m, 35.80 m, and 38.13 m.
[0079] S6.3, difference values are calculated between the stable clearance distance values of the three blades to obtain inter-blade clearance distance difference data, and the maximum difference value is extracted from the inter-blade clearance distance difference data as the impeller unbalance degree.
[0080] Difference values are calculated between the stable clearance distance values of the three blades. The inter-blade clearance distance difference is calculated as follows: Difference value ; Difference value ; Difference value ; The maximum difference is extracted from the inter-blade clearance distance difference data The impeller unbalance degree is This value indicates that the current impeller has an unbalance degree of 2.33 meters, reflecting the maximum difference in clearance distance between blade 2 and blade 3.
[0081] S7, when the clearance distance or unbalance degree exceeds the preset threshold, an alarm signal is issued and an alarm video is saved.
[0082] Finally, the calculated clearance distance and unbalance degree are compared with the preset threshold. Assuming that the preset clearance distance safety threshold is 30.0 m and the unbalance degree warning threshold is 2.0 m. By checking the clearance distance of each blade: blade 1 is 37.45 m, blade 2 is 35.80 m, and blade 3 is 38.13 m, all of which are greater than the 30.0 m safety threshold. However, the impeller unbalance degree is 2.33 m, which exceeds the 2.0 m warning threshold.
[0083] An intelligent alarm strategy is adopted: when there are 3 times of unbalance degree exceeding the preset threshold in 5 consecutive detections, an alarm is triggered. Assuming that 4 times of threshold-exceeding situations have been continuously detected, an unbalance degree abnormal alarm signal is immediately sent to the external PLC. At the same time, the video recording function is started, and the monitoring video 30 seconds before and after the current time is saved to the internal storage of the device, facilitating the subsequent analysis of the specific performance and reasons of the impeller unbalance by maintenance personnel.
