[0047] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0048] The fuselage scheme of the present application is based on the following actual conditions. The first-order natural frequency NF1 and the second-order natural frequency NF2 of the flexible tower can be as low as 0.1Hz to 0.2Hz. In the process of the impeller speed of the generator set increasing from the grid-connected speed to the rated speed, there will be a stage where it is coupled with NF1. The corresponding impeller speed is recorded as RS1. The real-time speed of the impeller can be monitored to determine whether there is frequency coupling. During the full-power period of the wind turbine, when the wind force is further enhanced, the unit will control the speed of the unit through the pitch action to prevent overspeed. At this time, if the pitch action frequency is coupled with NF1 or NF2, fatigue damage to the tower will be caused. Therefore, the pitch angle parameter can be monitored to determine whether the pitch action frequency is coupled with NF1 or NF2. In some special cases, such as vortex-induced resonance, impeller imbalance, etc., it can be determined whether there is coupling by directly monitoring the frequency characteristics of the tower shaking. Based on the above characteristics, the present application specifically proposes the following specific embodiments:

[0049] Embodiment 1

[0050] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a method for monitoring the operating status of a wind turbine generator system according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0051] This embodiment provides a method for monitoring the operating status of a wind turbine generator set. The wind turbine generator set includes a flexible tower 100 and a power generation device 200 disposed on the flexible tower. Figure 2 As shown, in order to implement the technical solution of the present application, corresponding vibration sensor groups are arranged on the top 101 and the middle 102 of the flexible tower of the present application, and each sensor group includes two vibration sensors x and y based on the acceleration principle that are in the same plane and perpendicular to each other, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The power generation equipment has a main controller for executing operation control operations on the power generation equipment and for detecting the impeller speed and pitch angle of the power generation equipment.

[0052] The reason why a group of vibration sensors are installed at the top and middle of the flexible tower is determined by the first-order and second-order vibration forms of the flexible tower. The vibration forms are as follows: Figure 4 As shown in the figure, when the tower is at the selected position, the tower sway amplitude is the largest, and the frequency characteristics of the two-order vibration modes can be monitored most effectively.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the operation status monitoring method provided in this embodiment is applied to an electronic device arranged on the wind turbine generator set. The electronic device can be understood as a computer device or controller with data calculation and information processing capabilities. The operation status monitoring method includes the following steps:

[0054] S1. Collect status parameters of wind turbines.

[0055] The state parameters of this embodiment include the vibration parameters detected by the above vibration sensor group and the operating parameters of the wind turbine. The operating parameters include the impeller speed and pitch angle of the power generation equipment. During acquisition, the vibration parameters detected by the vibration sensor group are collected from it. Additionally, the operating parameters are collected from the main controller of the power generation equipment.

[0056] S2. Obtain the operating state of the wind turbine according to its state parameters.

[0057] That is, on the basis of obtaining the above state parameters, the operating state of the wind turbine is obtained by performing arithmetic processing on the vibration parameters themselves or the vibration parameters and other operating parameters. Once coupled vibration occurs, a prompt message is sent to the operation and maintenance personnel in a timely manner, and the destruction of the wind turbine caused by coupled vibration can be avoided through the intervention of the operation and maintenance personnel.

[0058] Through the following specific method of this application, the obtained operating states include the first coupled vibration, the second coupled vibration, and the tower vibration. The specific solutions are as follows:

[0059] 1. By processing the impeller speed and vibration parameters, the corresponding operating state, that is, the first coupled vibration, is obtained. According to NF1, the dangerous range of the impeller speed is set as [RS1 - RS1 * 10%, RS1 + RS1 * 10%], denoted as [RS1-, RS1+]. Its monitoring logic is as follows:

[0060] The real-time monitoring of the impeller speed is realized according to the obtained operating parameters. When the speed enters the interval [RS1-, RS1+], timing starts, and the real-time speed RSi is recorded. Taking 60s as the time limit, the average speed RSm within 60s is calculated.

[0061]

[0062] Among them,

[0063] i—the i-th recorded speed;

[0064] n—the number of recorded speeds within 60s, equal to time * sampling frequency.

[0065] Furthermore, when timing starts, if the situation of RSi < RS1 - RS1 * 15% or RSi > RS1 + RS1 * 15% occurs, this timing is cancelled, and the above process is repeated when the next RSi falls into the interval [RS1-, RS1+].

[0066] For the obtained RSm, if it is within the range of [RS1-, RS1+], an alarm is sent to the unit master control and remote monitoring center, indicating that there is a risk of resonance between the impeller frequency and NF1, so that the unit can take protective measures. If RSm is outside the range of [RS1-, RS1+], no alarm is required and the unit continues to operate normally.

[0067] 2. By processing the pitch angle and vibration parameters, the corresponding operating state, i.e., the second coupled vibration, is obtained. Specifically, the frequency coupling caused by the pitch change action is monitored.

[0068] Perform Fourier transform on the pitch angle collected every 60 seconds;

[0069] like Figure 5 As shown, this figure is the pitch angle spectrum diagram under normal conditions. Figure 6 This is the case where the pitch angle change is coupled with the first-order natural frequency NF1 of the flexible tower. Judging from the results of Fourier transform, the frequency focus range is [NF1-NF1*10%, NF1+NF1*10%], recorded as [NF1-, NF1+], such as Figure 6 The frequency range between the two dashed lines.

[0070] The frequency range corresponding to NF2 is not considered here because the pitch angle does not change that fast, so it does not need to be considered.

[0071] Determine the maximum amplitude value in [NF1-, NF1+], recorded as PNF1, and at the same time, determine the amplitude limit Falarm based on the unit's operating data;

[0072] Determine whether there is a second coupled vibration. A PNF1 value can be obtained every 60 seconds and compared with Falarm. If PNF1>Falarm, it is counted once, otherwise, it is not recorded. A counting cycle of 10 minutes is considered a frequency coupling situation. If the count exceeds 7 within the counting cycle, it is considered that there is a frequency coupling situation, and an alarm is issued to the main control and remote monitoring center. There is a coupling risk between the pitch action frequency and NF1, so that the unit can take protective measures.

[0073] 3. Only by processing the vibration parameters, the first coupled vibration, the second coupled vibration or the tower vibration is obtained. In this embodiment, NF1 is monitored by means of a vibration sensor group installed on the top of the flexible tower, and NF2 is monitored by means of a vibration sensor installed in the middle of the flexible tower. Taking the monitoring of NF1 as an example, compared with the rigid tower, the flexible tower is more likely to cause resonance coupling in the shutdown state.

[0074] When the wind turbine is running:

[0075] 1) Record vibration data in real time and perform Fourier transform on the collected vibration parameters every 60 seconds;

[0076] 2) If Figure 7 As shown, this is the vibration spectrum under normal conditions. Figure 8 This is a situation where there is abnormal vibration coupled with the first-order natural frequency NF1 of the tower. The Fourier transform results are judged, and the frequency focus range is [NF1-NF1*10%, NF1+NF1*10%], recorded as [NF1-, NF1+], such as Figure 8 The frequency range between the two dashed lines.

[0077] 3) Determine the maximum amplitude value in [NF1-, NF1+], recorded as Ftv1, and at the same time, determine the limit value Ft-alarm of the NF1 amplitude based on the data during normal operation of the unit;

[0078] 4) Determine whether there is frequency coupling. A Ftv1 value can be obtained every 60 seconds and compared with Ft-alarm. If Ftv1>Ft-alarm, it is counted once, otherwise, it is not recorded. A counting cycle of 10 minutes is considered a frequency coupling situation. If the count exceeds 7 within the cycle, it is considered that there is a frequency coupling situation, and an alarm is issued to the main control and remote monitoring center, indicating that the unit is at risk of tower resonance, so that the unit can take protective measures.

[0079] When the wind turbine stops:

[0080] 1) Record vibration data in real time and perform Fourier transform on the collected vibration data every 60 seconds;

[0081] 2) If Fig. 9 As shown, this is the vibration spectrum under normal conditions. Fig.10 This is a situation where there is abnormal vibration coupled with the first-order natural frequency NF1 of the tower. The Fourier transform results are judged, and the frequency focus range is [NF1-NF1*10%, NF1+NF1*10%], recorded as [NF1-, NF1+], such as Fig.10 The frequency range between the two dashed lines.

[0082] 3) Determine the maximum amplitude value in [NF1-, NF1+], recorded as Ftv1-s. At the same time, determine the limit value of NF1 amplitude Ft-alarm-s based on the data during normal operation of the unit;

[0083] 4) Every 60 seconds, a value of Ftv1-s is obtained and compared with Ft-alarm-s. If Ftv1-s>Ft-alarm-s, it is counted once, otherwise, it is not recorded. A counting cycle of 30 minutes is considered. If the count exceeds 25 within the cycle, it is considered that there is frequency coupling, and an alarm is issued to the main control and remote monitoring center, indicating that the unit is at risk of tower resonance. The unit is asked to take protective measures remotely, and at the same time, the sound alarm device starts to work, reminding people working in or near the tower to stay away from the unit.

[0084] It can be seen from the above technical scheme that this embodiment provides a method for monitoring the operating status of a wind turbine, which is applied to electronic equipment. The wind turbine includes a flexible tower and a power generation device arranged on the flexible tower. Multiple vibration sensor groups are arranged on different levels of the flexible tower. The operating monitoring method specifically collects the state parameters of the wind turbine, and the state parameters include the vibration parameters of the flexible tower and the operating parameters of the power generation device; the state parameters are processed to obtain the operating status of the wind turbine. Through this scheme, the coupled vibration of the wind turbine can be monitored in real time, so that the operation and maintenance personnel can intervene in real time according to the monitoring results, thereby avoiding the impact on the safe operation of the wind turbine due to coupled vibration.

[0085] Embodiment 2

[0086] Fig.11 This is a block diagram of a wind turbine operating status monitoring device according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0087] like Fig.11 As shown, the operation status monitoring device provided in this embodiment is applied to an electronic device arranged on the wind turbine set. The electronic device can be understood as a computer device or controller with data calculation and information processing capabilities. The operation status monitoring device includes a parameter acquisition module 10 and a data processing module 20.

[0088] The parameter acquisition module is used to collect the status parameters of the wind turbine.

[0089] The state parameters of this embodiment include the vibration parameters detected by the vibration sensor group and the operating parameters of the wind turbine group, and the operating parameters include the impeller speed and pitch angle of the power generation equipment. The module includes a first acquisition unit and a second acquisition unit, the first acquisition unit is used to acquire the vibration parameters detected by the vibration sensor group, and the second acquisition unit is used to acquire the operating parameters from the main controller of the power generation equipment.

[0090] The data processing module is used to obtain the operating status of the wind turbine according to its status parameters.

[0091] That is, on the basis of obtaining the above state parameters, the vibration parameters themselves or the vibration parameters and other operating parameters are used for arithmetic processing to obtain the operating state of the wind turbine. Once coupled vibration occurs, a prompt message is sent to the operation and maintenance personnel in time, and the destruction of the wind turbine caused by the coupled vibration can be avoided through the intervention of the operation and maintenance personnel.

[0092] In the present application, through the following specific method, the obtained operating states include the first coupled vibration, the second coupled vibration, and the tower vibration. Specifically, the data processing module includes a first processing unit, a second processing unit, and a third processing unit.

[0093] The first processing unit is used to obtain the corresponding operating state, that is, the first coupled vibration, by processing the impeller speed and the vibration parameters. According to NF1, the dangerous range of the impeller speed is set as [RS1 - RS1*10%, RS1 + RS1*10%], denoted as [RS1-, RS1+], and its monitoring logic is as follows:

[0094] The real-time monitoring of the impeller speed is realized according to the obtained operating parameters. When the speed enters the interval [RS1-, RS1+], the timing starts, and the real-time speed RSi is recorded. Taking 60s as the time limit, the average speed RSm within 60s is calculated.

[0095]

[0096] Among them,

[0097] i—the i-th recorded speed;

[0098] n—the number of recorded speeds within 60s, equal to time * sampling frequency.

[0099] Furthermore, when the timing starts, if the situation of RSi < RS1 - RS1*15% or RSi > RS1 + RS1*15% occurs, the current timing is cancelled, and the above process is repeated when the next RSi falls into the interval [RS1-, RS1+].

[0100] For the obtained RSm, if it is within the interval [RS1-, RS1+], a warning is sent to the unit main control and the remote monitoring center that there is a resonance risk between the impeller rotation frequency and NF1, so that the unit can take protective measures. If RSm is outside the interval [RS1-, RS1+], no warning needs to be sent, and the unit continues to operate normally.

[0101] The second processing unit is used to obtain the corresponding operating state, that is, the second coupled vibration, by processing the pitch angle and the vibration parameters. Specifically, it is to monitor the frequency coupling caused by the pitch action.

[0102] Perform Fourier transform on the pitch angles collected within every 60s;

[0103] like Figure 5 As shown, this figure is the pitch angle spectrum diagram under normal conditions. Figure 6 This is the case where the pitch angle change is coupled with the first-order natural frequency NF1 of the flexible tower. Judging from the results of Fourier transform, the frequency focus range is [NF1-NF1*10%, NF1+NF1*10%], recorded as [NF1-, NF1+], such as Figure 6 The frequency range between the two dashed lines.

[0104] The frequency range corresponding to NF2 is not considered here because the pitch angle does not change that fast, so it does not need to be considered.

[0105] Determine the maximum amplitude value in [NF1-, NF1+], recorded as PNF1, and at the same time, determine the amplitude limit Falarm based on the unit's operating data;

[0106] Determine whether there is a second coupled vibration. A PNF1 value can be obtained every 60 seconds and compared with Falarm. If PNF1>Falarm, it is counted once, otherwise, it is not recorded. A counting cycle of 10 minutes is considered a frequency coupling situation. If the count exceeds 7 within the counting cycle, it is considered that there is a frequency coupling situation, and an alarm is issued to the main control and remote monitoring center. There is a coupling risk between the pitch action frequency and NF1, so that the unit can take protective measures.

[0107] The third processing unit obtains the first coupled vibration, the second coupled vibration or the tower vibration by processing the vibration parameters only. In this embodiment, the monitoring of NF1 is performed by means of a vibration sensor group installed on the top of the flexible tower, and the monitoring of NF2 is performed by means of a vibration sensor installed in the middle of the flexible tower. Taking the monitoring of NF1 as an example, compared with the rigid tower, the flexible tower is more likely to cause resonance coupling in the shutdown state.

[0108] When the wind turbine is running:

[0109] 1) Record vibration data in real time and perform Fourier transform on the collected vibration parameters every 60 seconds;

[0110] 2) If Figure 7 As shown, this is the vibration spectrum under normal conditions. Figure 8 This is a situation where there is abnormal vibration coupled with the first-order natural frequency NF1 of the tower. The Fourier transform results are judged, and the frequency focus range is [NF1-NF1*10%, NF1+NF1*10%], recorded as [NF1-, NF1+], such as Figure 8 The frequency range between the two dashed lines.

[0111] 3) Determine the maximum amplitude value in [NF1-, NF1+], recorded as Ftv1, and at the same time, determine the limit value Ft-alarm of the NF1 amplitude based on the data during normal operation of the unit;

[0112] 4) Determine whether there is frequency coupling. A Ftv1 value can be obtained every 60 seconds and compared with Ft-alarm. If Ftv1>Ft-alarm, it is counted once, otherwise, it is not recorded. A counting cycle of 10 minutes is considered a frequency coupling situation. If the count exceeds 7 within the cycle, it is considered that there is a frequency coupling situation, and an alarm is issued to the main control and remote monitoring center, indicating that the unit is at risk of tower resonance, so that the unit can take protective measures.

[0113] When the wind turbine stops:

[0114] 1) Record vibration data in real time and perform Fourier transform on the collected vibration data every 60 seconds;

[0115] 2) If Fig. 9 As shown, this is the vibration spectrum under normal conditions. Fig.10 This is a situation where there is abnormal vibration coupled with the first-order natural frequency NF1 of the tower. The Fourier transform results are judged, and the frequency focus range is [NF1-NF1*10%, NF1+NF1*10%], recorded as [NF1-, NF1+], such as Fig.10 The frequency range between the two dashed lines.

[0116] 3) Determine the maximum amplitude value in [NF1-, NF1+], recorded as Ftv1-s. At the same time, determine the limit value of NF1 amplitude Ft-alarm-s based on the data during normal operation of the unit;

[0117] 4) Every 60 seconds, a value of Ftv1-s is obtained and compared with Ft-alarm-s. If Ftv1-s>Ft-alarm-s, it is counted once, otherwise, it is not recorded. A counting cycle of 30 minutes is considered. If the count exceeds 25 within the cycle, it is considered that there is frequency coupling, and an alarm is issued to the main control and remote monitoring center, indicating that the unit is at risk of tower resonance. The unit is asked to take protective measures remotely, and at the same time, the sound alarm device starts to work, reminding people working in or near the tower to stay away from the unit.

[0118] It can be seen from the above technical scheme that this embodiment provides an operation status monitoring device for a wind turbine, which is applied to electronic equipment. The wind turbine includes a flexible tower and a power generation device arranged on the flexible tower. A plurality of vibration sensor groups are arranged on different levels of the flexible tower. The operation monitoring device is specifically used to collect the state parameters of the wind turbine, which include the vibration parameters of the flexible tower and the operation parameters of the power generation device; the state parameters are processed to obtain the operation status of the wind turbine.
