Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of planning and optimization of offshore wind farm electrical systems, and in particular to a method for optimizing the selection of submarine cables and offshore booster stations for offshore wind farm electrical systems taking into account the N+ principle. Background Art

[0002] It is a general trend to accelerate the construction of a new power system with new energy as the main body and develop green and low-carbon energy. Offshore wind power will become a new growth pole for green power supply. From the current development of global offshore wind power, offshore wind power development shows a trend of deep sea and large scale, and the investment in electrical systems is constantly increasing. How to "reduce costs, reduce subsidies and even eliminate subsidies" is the key to the sustainable development of offshore wind power. Therefore, it is necessary to further optimize and study the electrical system planning.

[0003] The electrical system has a large number of submarine cables and electrical equipment, and the investment in the electrical system accounts for about 30% of the total investment in the entire wind farm. The planning and optimization of the electrical system has been one of the research hotspots of offshore wind farms in recent years. G.Tan et al. considered the location and number of offshore substations in "Research on primary frequency regulation of wind turbine based on new nonlinear droop control" and conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the investment cost and reliability of different electrical network structures. Syed Hamza Hasan Kazmi et al. used a transformer design based on dynamic thermal setting in "Cost optimized dynamic design of offshore windfarm transformers with reliability and contingency considerations" to significantly reduce the size of offshore transformers without compromising operational reliability, thus achieving economic optimization. Fu Yang et al. considered the electromagnetic environmental constraints of the electrical system in "Game optimization of the topology of the collector network of a large offshore wind farm considering electromagnetic environmental constraints", established an optimization model combining environmental, economic and reliability, and solved the problem of topological structure planning of the collector system under environmental constraints at two levels, effectively reducing the range of magnetic disturbance radiation of the wind farm. S.Tao et al. constructed a two-layer multi-objective model in "Joint Optimization of Wind Turbine Micrositing and Cabling in an Offshore Wind Farm" to realize the configuration of wind turbines in offshore wind farms while optimizing the topology of the power collection system. Wang L et al. proposed coupled random fork tree coding in "An Integration Optimization Method for Power Collection Systems of Offshore Wind Farms", which realized the coupled coding of substation location, topological wiring, and cable cross-section for the first time, providing a basis for the integrated design of the power collection system. Yuan Yue et al. converted the uncertainty planning model of the power transmission system into their respective deterministic equivalent classes in "Flexible Planning of Transmission Networks with Large Wind Farms Based on Multi-Scenario Probability", and then used traditional methods to establish their equivalent deterministic planning models, thereby avoiding the establishment of complex power grid planning models and reducing the difficulty of modeling and solving.

[0004] In the above studies, in order to meet the reliability requirements, there are clear redundancy levels (N-1, N-2) when selecting the electrical system of offshore wind farms. However, offshore wind power has large volatility and the clustering effect of wind farms will reduce the maximum power output of wind farms. According to statistics, the annual average output power of wind farms is about 30%-40% of the installed capacity. The existing electrical system selection method will cause offshore electrical equipment to operate in a low-load state for a long time, increase the design redundancy of the transmission system, and cause great waste in the construction, investment and operation of offshore electrical systems.

[0083]

[0084] V r+ Depends on P R+ , let P wt (v) = P R+ We can solve for V r+ , the expression is as follows:

[0085]

[0086] Where P R is the rated power of a single fan, P R+ Considering the upper limit of wind turbine output with “N+” redundancy and serving as the optimization variable in the electrical system selection game (P R+ ≥P R,min , P R,min P R+ as the lower limit of the optimization variable), v is the instantaneous wind speed at the wind turbine installation location, V ci 、V co are the fan cut-in and cut-out speeds, V r+ is the wind speed corresponding to the upper limit of the fan output under "N+" redundancy. The binomial parameters A, B, and C are the parameters of the fan power characteristic curve, which are determined only by the fan's own design parameters.

[0087] 1.2 Wind speed model

[0088] The most commonly used wind resource distribution statistics is the Weibull distribution, and the probability density function is as follows:

[0089]

[0090] In the formula, v is the wind speed, m / s; c is the quantitative parameter of the average wind speed; k is the shape parameter of the wind speed variation range. k and c can be estimated from the data through maximum likelihood estimation, then:

[0094] 1.3 Initial investment cost benefit.

[0095] The initial investment includes the investment in medium and high voltage submarine cables and the material and construction costs of the offshore substation, which are:

[0096]

[0097] In the formula: Δ represents the difference between the cost in the initial state and the cost after optimization by the "N+" principle. The Δ in the following formulas all abide by the above principles. ΔC M.cab , ΔC inst are the difference in operating loss and laying cost of medium voltage submarine cables, ΔC H.cab is the difference in high-voltage submarine cable operation loss, ΔC sub It is the investment and construction cost of the offshore substation.

[0098] 1.4 Loss and gain of electrical system operation

[0104] The wind curtailment loss is mainly composed of two parts. One part is the loss of wind energy resources C due to the limited output of wind turbines caused by the transmission limitation of electrical equipment. qi1 The other part is the loss caused by the reduction of wind power transmission capacity due to the decrease of redundancy level when some offshore substations or high-voltage submarine cables of wind farms fail. qi2 .

[0112] 2) Optimize the optimal topology of the power collection system under different wind turbine output limits based on the parthenogenetic algorithm;

[0113] 3) Based on the chaotic butterfly optimization algorithm, the output upper limit of wind turbines in the wind farm zone is used as the optimization parameter, and the maximum net present value benefit is used as the objective function to optimize the selection of offshore electrical equipment.

[0114] 2.2 "N+" selection game optimization based on enumeration method (hereinafter referred to as "N+" redundancy 2), the flowchart is detailed in Figure 2 .

[0115] 1) Clustering and zoning of offshore wind farms and optimization of offshore booster station site selection based on the FCM clustering algorithm;

[0116] 2) Given the initial optimization range and step size, the topology of the power collection system is solved based on the partheno-genetic algorithm, and the submarine cable selection, booster station capacity and transmission system selection are optimized based on the given wind turbine output upper limit;

[0117] 3) Output the planning scheme. To improve the speed of the next iterative optimization, narrow the optimization parameter traversal range according to the results, output the results and feed them back to step 1 to start the next iterative optimization.

[0118] 3. Comprehensive evaluation process of electrical system planning scheme, the specific process is as follows Figure 3 As shown:

[0119] 1) Comprehensively consider various factors and determine the evaluation indicators of the planning scheme;

[0120] 2) The weight of each evaluation index is optimized based on the combined weight method of the analytic hierarchy process-CRITIC weight method, and the influence weight of each evaluation index guides the determination of the payment function;

[0121] The present invention uses the analytic hierarchy process-CRITIC weight method to optimize the weight allocation of n evaluation indicators in m game schemes, and combines and optimizes the subjective and objective weights through the multiplication synthesis method.

[0122] The subjective weights of the planning scheme evaluation indicators are determined by the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). By comparing the relative importance of the evaluation indicators pairwise, the judgment matrix A is obtained:

[0123]

[0124] Take the result of multiplying each row of the matrix to the power of n:

[0125]

[0126] The obtained weights are normalized and tested for consistency, and the subjective weights of each evaluation index are obtained:

[0127]

[0128] The objective weights of the planning scheme evaluation indicators are determined by the CRITIC weight method. In order to eliminate the impact of different dimensions on the evaluation results, each evaluation indicator is dimensionless.

[0129] The variability and conflict of indicators are expressed by standard deviation and correlation coefficient respectively:

[0130]

[0131] The amount of information contained in the i-th indicator:

[0132] C i =S i ×R i

[0133] The weight of the i-th indicator is expressed as:

[0134]

[0136]

[0137] 3) Comprehensively evaluate the planning schemes based on the mixed strategy Nash equilibrium theory and output the optimal planning scheme.

[0138] In the scheme evaluation analysis, the planning scheme constitutes the strategy set Z of the game model, and the set of players H in the model is composed of evaluation indicators. Combined with the calculation results of the evaluation indicator weights, the influence intensity W between the constituent elements is considered. i , whose payment function is u(W i ), payment function combined A optimization model for electrical system planning schemes is constructed, and the mathematical expression is G={H,Z,U}.

[0139] The model is converted into a linear model for calculation.

[0140]

[0141] Where: y i represents any mixed strategy based on the effective strategy set Zi of alternative i; a ij is the coefficient.

[0142] Example

[0143] In this case, an offshore wind farm with a total capacity of 366MW is taken as an example to optimize the design of its electrical system submarine cable and electrical equipment selection. The wind farm has 56 6MW wind turbines. The distribution of wind turbines and the location of onshore substations are detailed in Figure 5 The voltage level of the medium-voltage submarine cable is 35kV, the voltage level of the high-voltage submarine cable is 220kV, the failure rate of the submarine cable is 0.03 times / (km·a); the repair time of the submarine cable is 1000 hours; the failure rate of the main transformer of the offshore substation is 0.01, the maintenance cost is about 800,000 yuan, the maintenance time is 200 hours, and the service life of the offshore wind farm is 20 years.

[0144] There are two electrical system planning schemes based on the N+ principle, and the electrical system planning scheme based on the N-1 principle is used as a reference scheme. The specific results of the optimized topological structure of the collection system, the offshore substation and the submarine cable selection of the transmission system of each scheme are as follows: Figure 4 , 5 , 6, 7 as shown:

[0145] The selection results of high-voltage submarine cables and booster stations in different offshore wind farm planning schemes are shown in Table 1, and the cost structure is shown in Fig.10 .

[0146] Table 1 Electrical system selection results under different planning schemes

[0147]

[0148] In order to compare and analyze the economic efficiency of different solutions, the electrical system optimization results are summarized as shown in Table 2:

[0149] Table 2 Electrical system costs of different planning schemes (10,000 yuan)

[0150]

[0151] In order to ensure the owner's requirements for economic and operational reliability when commissioning, and to achieve economic and environmental coordination by considering the long-term sustainability of the marine life environment, in line with the concept of sustainable development of offshore wind power, the comprehensive evaluation of the planning scheme needs to consider multiple influencing factors, mainly the economic feasibility of the investment and the possible risk of wind abandonment under the N+ principle, as well as the reliability of the electrical system and the possible impact on the offshore environment after the planning scheme is put into operation. The economic feasibility of the electrical system mainly considers the full life cycle cost, and the risk of wind abandonment is composed of the wind power abandoned under the "N+" principle. The reliability evaluation of the electrical system uses the sequential Monte Carlo simulation method to calculate the average annual output of the offshore wind farm. The environmental friendliness mainly considers the impact of electromagnetic radiation generated by offshore electrical equipment and submarine cable operation.

[21] .

[0152] The present invention uses the analytic hierarchy process-CRITIC weight method to optimize the weight allocation of n evaluation indicators in m planning schemes. The subjective and objective weights are combined and optimized by the multiplication synthesis method. The three candidate schemes are comprehensively evaluated based on the mixed strategy Nash equilibrium principle. The specific process is as follows Figure 3 As shown:

[0153] The strategy set for game analysis is the above three alternatives. The main influencing factors of the collector system topology planning relative to the influence weights of the alternatives constitute the payment function U, which serves as the quantitative analysis entry for game evaluation. The calculation results of the evaluation index weights are shown in Table 3:
