Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bearings for wind turbines, and in particular to an asymmetric double-row tapered roller main bearing for a wind turbine and a design method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous expansion of the wind power industry, the capacity and impeller diameter of wind turbines are gradually increasing, which requires a more powerful transmission chain. As one of the important factors affecting the load-bearing capacity and cost of the transmission chain, the research on the main bearing is of great significance.
[0003] At present, the main bearing forms adopted by wind turbines include single bearing forms such as three-row cylindrical roller bearings, symmetric double-row tapered roller bearings, and paired single-row tapered roller bearings mounted back-to-back or face-to-face. Using a single main bearing can shorten the size of the transmission chain, shorten or remove the main shaft of the wind turbine, and reduce the weight of the main unit. Due to the special load of the wind turbine, the ultimate load and fatigue load on the main raceway side of the double-row tapered roller main bearing are much greater than those on the secondary raceway side. The main raceway and secondary raceway of the traditional symmetric double-row tapered roller main bearing have the same load-bearing capacity, which means that when the main raceway meets the load-bearing capacity requirement, the secondary raceway has a waste of load-bearing capacity, thus causing a waste of cost. Summary of the Invention

Then, the raceway bearing the positive F x force external load is raceway A, and the other row of raceway is raceway B;
[0009] Among them, the specific steps of the static strength design part are as follows:
[0010] 11) Force calculation of rollers in two rows of asymmetric raceways: According to the relationship between contact deformation and force in Hertz contact theory, calculate the deformation of rollers in two rows of asymmetric raceways to obtain the normal force of each slice roller in two rows of asymmetric raceways;

[0012] 13) Calculation of static strength safety factor of raceway: Compare the maximum Hertz contact stress of two rows of asymmetric raceways with the allowable Hertz contact stress to obtain the static strength safety factor of the raceway;
[0013] The specific steps of the fatigue life design part are as follows:
[0014] 21) Calculation of equivalent dynamic load of rollers and rings in two rows of asymmetric raceways: Substitute the normal force of each slice roller in two rows of asymmetric raceways into the rolling element equivalent dynamic load formula to obtain the equivalent dynamic load of two rows of rolling elements; furthermore, calculate the equivalent dynamic load of the corresponding rings according to the equivalent dynamic load of two rows of rolling elements;
[0015] 22) Calculation of basic rated life of raceway: According to the definitions of ISO281 and ISO / TS 16281 standards, use the rated rolling element load formula to calculate the rated rolling element loads of two rows of asymmetric raceways respectively, and combine with the equivalent dynamic load to obtain the basic rated life of the raceway according to the basic rated life formula;
[0016] 23) Calculation of correction factors for rollers in two rows of asymmetric raceways: According to the definitions of ISO281 and ISO / TS 16281 standards, use the equivalent dynamic load of the equivalent rings of each slice roller in two rows of asymmetric raceways to obtain the raceway life correction factors of each slice roller in two rows of asymmetric raceways;

[0018] Further, in step 11), the calculation of the forces on the two columns of asymmetric raceway rollers is as follows:
[0019] First, the total load deformation constants of the rolling elements and the inner and outer rings of the two raceways are calculated respectively according to the contact deformation formula of Hertz contact theory.

[0027] The single rolling elements of raceway A and raceway B are cut into m A and m B respectively along the radial direction of the roller.For the slice, the total load deformation constants of each slice of rolling elements in the two raceways become K n,A = K A / m A and K n,B = K B / m B ;
[0028] In the FEA software, each slice of rollers in the two raceways is replaced by a link element connecting the inner and outer rings of the raceway. Their stiffnesses are set according to K n,A , K n,B respectively. The initial displacement of each link element needs to consider the modification amount of the roller profile curve at the position of the corresponding slice of the roller, and then calculate the normal force of each slice of the roller, which are Q A,j,k and Q B,j,k respectively. Among them, Q A,j,k represents the normal force of the j-th rolling element and the k-th slice of the roller in raceway A, j = [1, 2,...

[0035] Furthermore, in step 13), the calculation of the static strength safety factor of the raceway is specifically as follows:
[0036] Substitute the maximum Hertz contact stresses σ oA,max and σ oB,max of raceway A and raceway B into the following formulas respectively to calculate the static strength safety factors S A and S B of the two raceways respectively, and take the smaller value as the static strength safety factor of the raceway;

Assuming that the main row tapered roller bearing structure is raceway A and the secondary row tapered roller bearing structure is raceway B, when the impeller of the unit is installed on the inner ring, raceway A is in the oncoming wind direction; when the impeller is installed on the outer ring, raceway B is in the oncoming wind direction.
[0086] The following is the design method of the above-mentioned asymmetric double-row tapered roller main bearing of the wind turbine unit in this embodiment, including two parts: static strength design and fatigue life design.
[0087] As Figure 2 shown, first, a load coordinate system is established with the center of the asymmetric double-row tapered roller main bearing as the coordinate origin. Assuming that the asymmetric double-row tapered roller main bearing only bears force F x force, then the raceway bearing the positive F x force external load is raceway A, and the other raceway is raceway B.
[0088] The specific steps of the static strength design part are as follows:
[0089] 11) Force calculation of the rollers in two asymmetric raceways: According to the relationship between contact deformation and force in Hertz contact theory, the normal force of each slice roller in the two asymmetric raceways is obtained by calculating the deformation of the rollers in the two asymmetric raceways.
[0090] The calculation process is as follows:
[0091] First, calculate the total load deformation constants of the rolling elements and the inner and outer rings of the two raceways respectively according to the contact deformation formula of Hertz contact theory.

[0100] In the FEA software, each slice of the rollers in the two raceways is replaced by a link element that connects the inner and outer rings of the raceway. Their stiffnesses are set according to K n,A , K n,B respectively. The initial displacement of each link element needs to consider the modification amount of the roller profile curve at the position of the corresponding slice of the roller, and then calculate the normal force of each slice of the roller, which are Q A,j,k and Q B,j,k respectively. Among them, Q A,j,k represents the normal force of the j-th rolling element and the k-th slice of the roller in raceway A, where j = [1, 2,...

[0108] 13) Calculation of the static strength safety factor of the raceway: Compare the maximum Hertz contact stress of the two non-symmetrical raceways with the allowable Hertz contact stress to obtain the static strength safety factor of the raceway;
[0109] The calculation process is as follows:
[0110] Substitute the maximum Hertz contact stresses σ oA,max and σ oB,max of raceway A and raceway B into the following formula respectively, and calculate the static strength safety factors S A and S B of the two raceways respectively, and take the smaller value as the static strength safety factor of the raceway;

[0113] The specific steps of the fatigue life design part are as follows:
[0114] 21) Calculation of the equivalent dynamic load of the rollers and rings of the two non-symmetrical raceways: Substitute the normal force of each slice of the rollers of the two non-symmetrical raceways into the rolling element equivalent dynamic load formula to obtain the equivalent dynamic load of the two rows of rolling elements; and then calculate the equivalent dynamic load of the corresponding rings according to the equivalent dynamic load of the two rows of rolling elements;
[0115] The calculation process is as follows:
[0116] According to the definitions of ISO281 and ISO / TS 16281 standards, substitute the normal forces Q A,j,k and Q B,j,k of the jth rolling element and the kth slice of the rollers of raceway A and raceway B into the rolling element equivalent dynamic load formula respectively, and obtain the rolling element equivalent dynamic load of the kth slice of the rollers of raceway A and raceway B,
