[0049] The main shaft of a wind turbine is a rotating component in a wind turbine generator, responsible for connecting the hub and the gearbox. As an important component in a wind turbine, the main shaft needs to be simulated for fatigue damage to predict whether the main shaft is qualified and to predict the service life of the main shaft. The present application provides a fatigue damage prediction method for a shaft body, which can be used for fatigue damage prediction of the main shaft of a wind turbine in some embodiments, and can also be used for fatigue damage prediction of other shaft body components. Based on quasi-static analysis, a finite element method and software tools are applied, a test load is loaded at the center of the hub, mechanical analysis is performed, shaft body stress results are solved, fatigue damage simulation is performed, fatigue damage values are predicted, and safety judgment is performed. Figure 1 A flowchart of the fatigue damage prediction method of an embodiment of the present application. In some embodiments, the fatigue damage prediction method of the present application includes steps S1-S4.

[0050] In step S1, a shaft body model of the shaft body is established, and a fatigue time sequence load is determined. The shaft body model is built according to the actual shape and material of the shaft body, and the shaft body model includes the shaft body and the bearing seat supporting the shaft body. For example, during the operation of the wind turbine, the main shaft is constantly rotating and subjected to a load that changes over time. Since the present application adopts quasi-static analysis, the shaft body model does not rotate during simulation, and the fatigue time sequence load can be loaded around the central axis of the shaft body model. The size of the fatigue time sequence load is obtained according to factors such as the wind turbine model and the wind farm environment. Since the fatigue time sequence load is a load that constantly rotates and changes in size over time, the fatigue time sequence load includes fatigue loads at multiple times, and each fatigue time sequence load at a time corresponds to an azimuth angle when rotating one circle. In this way, the fatigue load method of the present application is applicable to shaft bodies of different structures and different connection modes, has high applicability, and is simple and accurate in prediction.

[0051] In actual operation of the wind turbine, since the main shaft is a rotating part during operation of the unit, the fatigue damage results at different positions around the circumference should be relatively close and should not be significantly different. However, since the fatigue damage prediction method of the present application uses quasi-static analysis, the flanges connected to the rack at both ends of the bearing seat of the wind turbine sometimes have a structure stiffness that is significantly higher than other positions. Stiffness is the ability of a material or structure to resist deformation. In the present application, the structural stiffness refers to the ability of a point or a region to resist deformation under the force on the structure. At this time, if the fatigue time sequence load obtained according to factors such as the wind turbine model and the wind farm environment is used for simulation, the shaft body is not easy to deform at this position due to the sudden increase in the structural stiffness of the bearing seat at this position, and thus is more prone to wear. At this time, the fatigue damage of the main shaft in the circumferential direction is significantly different, which is obviously inconsistent with the fact that the main shaft rotates uniformly. In other embodiments, the main shaft also has the same situation of the fatigue damage of the main shaft in the circumferential direction being significantly different due to different structural stiffness. To this end, the fatigue time sequence load obtained from the past data is corrected to make the fatigue damage simulation result close to the actual damage structure, and the fatigue damage prediction method of the present application can avoid the situation that the fatigue damage of a region of the shaft body and the fatigue damage of positions around the circumference are significantly different due to uneven stiffness of the shaft body model, and objectively assess the true bearing capacity of the main shaft.

[0052] Since the difference of fatigue damage is mainly caused by structural stiffness, the fatigue time sequence load can be corrected according to the structural stiffness of the shaft model. In step S2, the structural stiffness of multiple positions of the shaft model is obtained. The structural stiffness of the shaft model in the present application refers to the overall structural stiffness of the shaft and the bearing seat, and the structural stiffness of the shaft model can be represented by some parameters. In order to correct the fatigue time sequence load, the multiple positions are determined by the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load, and each azimuth angle corresponds to a position, so the multiple positions are arranged in a circumferential direction on the shaft model. In some embodiments, step S2 includes applying a test load to the shaft model, obtaining test stresses of multiple positions on the shaft model, and determining the structural stiffness of the multiple positions of the shaft model according to the test stresses of the multiple positions. The size of the test stress of the multiple positions can reflect the structural stiffness of the corresponding position, and the smaller the test stress, the greater the structural stiffness of the corresponding position. The present application obtains the structural stiffness of different positions in the circumferential direction of the shaft model by obtaining the test stresses of multiple positions on the shaft model, which is accurate and simple in prediction process. In some embodiments, in order to facilitate calculation, the test load is a unit load. In some embodiments, the structural stiffness can also be derived from material properties and structural parameters according to existing methods, as long as it can reflect the resistance to deformation of different regions of the structure.

[0053] In step S3, the fatigue time sequence load is corrected according to the structural stiffness of the multiple positions to obtain the corrected optimal fatigue time sequence load. Since the structural stiffness of the shaft model is different, it can cause a large difference in fatigue damage of the shaft in the circumferential direction, and the fatigue time sequence load can be corrected according to the difference and change trend of the structural stiffness. In some embodiments, step S3 includes steps S31-S32. Figure 2 For Figure 1 The specific flow chart of step S3 of the fatigue damage prediction method shown in the figure.

[0054] In step S31, the correction coefficient is determined according to the structural stiffness of the plurality of positions. In step S32, the fatigue time sequence load is corrected according to the correction coefficient to obtain the optimized fatigue time sequence load. The fatigue time sequence load is a load that rotates and changes in size over time, and the fatigue time sequence load can be divided into fatigue loads at a plurality of time points, and the corrected optimized fatigue time sequence load can also be divided into optimized fatigue loads corresponding to the time points. In the illustrated embodiment, since the fatigue time sequence load includes fatigue loads at a plurality of time points, the optimized fatigue time sequence load includes optimized fatigue loads at a plurality of time points, and the corrected optimized fatigue loads at a plurality of time points correspond one-to-one to the fatigue loads, the fatigue loads at a plurality of time points can be corrected by calculating the correction coefficient therebetween, and the size of the correction coefficient is only related to the shaft body model itself and does not change with the fatigue time sequence load. Thus, the correction coefficient of the present application can be adapted for repeated use, and is still applicable in the case of changing the fatigue time sequence load. The fatigue damage prediction method of the present application is highly adaptable.

[0055] In determining the correction coefficient, different methods can be adopted. In some embodiments, the correction coefficient is determined according to the numerical value of the structural stiffness, and step S31 includes: determining a proportional coefficient according to the structural stiffness of the plurality of positions; determining a first reference position at the current time point according to the azimuth angle of the fatigue load at the current time point; and determining the correction coefficient of the fatigue load at the current time point according to the structural stiffness of the first reference position. The first reference position is one of the plurality of positions in step S2 corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue load at the current time point. Since the structural stiffness of the plurality of positions of the shaft body model is obtained in step S2, a standard data can be preset, and the structural stiffness data of the plurality of positions are compared around the standard data to obtain the proportional coefficient. Multiplying the structural stiffness of the first reference position corresponding to the azimuth angle at the current time point by the proportional coefficient can obtain the correction coefficient of the fatigue load at the current time point, and thus the calculation is simple.

[0056] In other embodiments, the correction coefficient is determined according to the change trend of the structural stiffness. At this time, step S31 includes: determining a second reference position according to the azimuth angle of the fatigue load at the next time point of the current time point; and determining the correction coefficient of the fatigue load at the current time point according to the structural stiffness of the first reference position and the second reference position. The first reference position is one of the plurality of positions in step S2 corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue load at the current time point, and the second reference position is one of the plurality of positions in step S2 corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue load at the next time point of the current time point. By comparing the structural stiffness of the first reference position and the second reference position, the change trend of the structural stiffness is obtained, and thus the correction coefficient is determined according to the change trend of the structural stiffness of the shaft body model, which is more accurate.

[0057] The specific value of the correction coefficient is determined according to the expression of the structural stiffness, and in the illustrated embodiment, the expression of the structural stiffness of the plurality of positions is the size of the test stress, and at this time, step S31 comprises: determining the correction coefficient of the fatigue load at the current time according to the test stresses of the first reference position and the second reference position; determining the ratio of the test stresses of the second reference position and the first reference position as the correction coefficient of the fatigue load at the current time. The formula is as follows formula (1):

[0058]

[0059] In formula (1), M old is the fatigue load at the current time before correction, M new is the optimized fatigue load at the current time after correction, the current time is t1, the next time of the current time is t2, σ θ_t1 is the value of the test stress of the corresponding position in the shaft body model corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load at t1, and σ θ_t2 is the value of the test stress of the corresponding position in the shaft body model corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load at t2.

[0060] Figure 3 is the comparison diagram of the fatigue time sequence load before correction and the optimized time sequence load after correction of the fatigue damage prediction method shown in Figure 1 Please refer to Figure 3 and formula 1, it can be seen from formula 1 that if the value of the test stress of the corresponding position in the shaft body model corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load at t2 is less than the value of the test stress of the corresponding position in the shaft body model corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load at t1, it represents that the structural stiffness of the corresponding position in the shaft body model corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load at t2 is greater than the structural stiffness of the corresponding position in the shaft body model corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load at t1, at this time, the correction coefficient is greater than 1, and the absolute value of the optimized fatigue load at the current time after correction is greater than the absolute value of the fatigue load at the current time before correction, that is, the size of the fatigue load of the corresponding position in the shaft body model corresponding to the azimuth angle of the fatigue time sequence load at t1 is reduced, and vice versa. Figure 4 is the comparison diagram of the fatigue simulation results before and after correction of the fatigue damage prediction method shown in Figure 1 Please refer to Figure 4 Since the fatigue damage value decreases with the decrease of the fatigue load under the condition that the structural stiffness is unchanged, reducing the fatigue load at this position can directly reduce the fatigue damage value of the position with large structural stiffness in the shaft body model, the fatigue time sequence load which is originally large due to distortion is corrected, and the fatigue damage simulation value obtained after such correction is uniform in value on the entire shaft body, and the fatigue damage prediction method of the shaft body is high in accuracy.

[0061] In step S4, the fatigue damage value of the shaft model is obtained by loading the optimized fatigue time history load on the shaft model and through finite element simulation. The prediction process is realized by simulation software. The application does not limit the specific implementation of the correlation between fatigue time history load and stress results, the synthesis of principal stress, rainflow counting and fatigue calculation in the prediction process. The fatigue damage value obtained by the finite element simulation is the fatigue damage value of multiple positions. In other embodiments, steps S2-S3 of the application can be repeated to change the multiple positions of the calculated structural stiffness, thereby obtaining the fatigue damage values of other positions, and finally completing the prediction of the fatigue damage of the shaft. Or the position most prone to failure is selected to calculate the fatigue damage using the fatigue damage prediction method of the application to obtain the service life of the shaft.

[0062] In some embodiments, the fatigue time history load is complex, and the fatigue time history load can be decomposed into multiple directional fatigue time history load components. Correspondingly, the optimized fatigue time history load includes multiple directional optimized fatigue time history load components. At this time, each fatigue time history load component can be corrected to obtain an optimized fatigue time history load component, and the calculation is simple. Step S2 of this embodiment includes correcting multiple fatigue time history load components according to the structural stiffness of multiple positions to obtain multiple corrected optimized fatigue time history load components. Step S4 includes loading the optimized fatigue time history load components on the shaft model and obtaining the fatigue damage value of the shaft model through finite element simulation. The fatigue damage value of the shaft model is the sum of the fatigue damage value components of the shaft model. In some embodiments, finite element software can be used for fatigue damage calculation, and thus the fatigue damage method of the application further includes dividing the shaft model into finite element grids to obtain the finite element grids.

[0063] Since the frequency of the fatigue time sequence load is high, in order to reduce the calculation amount of the finite element analysis, the mesh division does not have to be in accordance with the frequency of the fatigue time sequence load, and can be appropriately reduced, but is convenient for calculation. The finite element mesh on the main shaft can be divided in an axial symmetry and in an integer proportional relationship with the frequency of the fatigue time sequence load. In some embodiments, the frequency is divided into 1200, 5400 and 1800, and the mesh of the shaft body model can be divided into 120 in the circumferential direction. At this time, if the first reference position and the second reference position are both in the first mesh of the finite element mesh, the second mesh adjacent to the first mesh is determined as a new second reference position, and the new second reference position is used in the subsequent steps. The first mesh is any mesh of the finite element mesh, and the second mesh is adjacent to the first mesh in the circumferential direction of the main shaft. After the meshing of the finite element, the test stress is simulated in accordance with the mesh of the finite element, the test stress in each mesh is the same structure stiffness, and when the second reference position and the first reference position fall in the same mesh, the second reference position is determined as the next adjacent mesh. In this way, the fatigue damage prediction method of the application can be used more easily when the fatigue time sequence load with a faster frequency is applied to the shaft body, and the finite element analysis of the fatigue damage prediction method improves the calculation efficiency.

[0064] The fatigue damage prediction method of the application establishes a shaft body model for the shaft body, analyzes the stiffness of different positions of the shaft body model, corrects the fatigue time sequence load, and eliminates the influence of the bearing seat on the structure stiffness of the shaft body during modeling. Please refer to Figure 4 , the fatigue damage obtained by using the corrected optimal fatigue time sequence load is uniform along the circumferential direction of the shaft body, which is consistent with the actual situation that the shaft body is uniformly worn due to continuous rotation during operation, and the fatigue damage prediction method of the application has high accuracy.
