Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wind power technology and relates to an integrated control system and method for wind turbine pitch control and support structure vibration reduction. Background Technology

[0002] As a green and renewable clean energy source, maximizing wind power conversion remains a key technological challenge. With advancements in materials science and structural design, the single-unit power output of new wind turbines is continuously increasing, and blade length and tower height are constantly pushing existing limits. Furthermore, due to the complexity of the operating environment, wind turbines are subjected to aerodynamic and inertial loads, as well as various adverse effects such as corrosion and earthquakes during operation. Under these multiple influences, complex external excitations not only increase component fatigue and shorten service life but also cause vibration responses in the tower support structure, ultimately affecting the overall power output. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt appropriate control strategies to reduce the load on the wind turbine under different operating conditions and decrease structural vibration, thereby improving the wind turbine's adaptability to complex environments.

[0003] For the upper rotor blades, to achieve maximum power point tracking, the blade pitch angle needs to be adjusted in real time when wind speed changes, especially under high wind speeds, to change the torque exerted by the airflow on the hub. In current production processes, PID controllers are mostly used to control the pitch angle. While their working principle is simple, operation is convenient, and stability is good, they also have drawbacks such as slow response speed and excessive overshoot, making it difficult to accurately track the incoming wind speed. Furthermore, they cannot adjust for the load on the upper structure, resulting in a large load at the nacelle and causing structural vibration.

[0004] In situations where loads are unavoidable, numerous vibration control devices have been proposed in research and practical applications. These devices are installed in the upper and middle parts of the supporting structure to suppress the vibration of the tower under external excitation. Conventional vibration control devices include tuned mass dampers (TMDs), tuned liquid dampers (TLDs), and eddy current dampers (ECDs). However, most of these devices are passive vibration control devices, with excessive mass, relatively limited control frequencies, and response hysteresis effects, making real-time adjustments difficult under complex external excitations. Furthermore, in highly flexible structures such as wind turbines, the limited internal space restricts the device's travel, resulting in limited control effectiveness. Existing active control strategies, such as linear quadratic programming (LQR), have fixed control gains at the design stage, making it impossible to adjust the magnitude of the active force in real time according to the structure's response.

[0005] Therefore, in previous control methods, simply implementing pitch control or adding tower vibration damping devices is insufficient to meet the needs of multiple control objectives in practice. Thus, a suitable control method is needed to comprehensively consider multiple control objectives such as upper load, power generation, and tower vibration, and to provide real-time feedback on the structure's response, thereby improving the applicability and economic efficiency of wind turbines in complex load environments. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0047] To facilitate understanding of this research, a more detailed description is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. However, this research can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in this specification. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this research.

[0048] Example 1: This example provides a wind turbine pitch and tower vibration control system based on fuzzy logic reasoning, such as... Figure 1 The wind turbine shown includes blades 1, hub 2, nacelle 3 and tower 4. The control system is installed inside the nacelle 3. The control system includes a tower fuzzy active control system and a fuzzy pitch control system.

[0049] The tower fuzzy active control system includes an actuator fuzzy controller and an inertial-capacitance tuned mass vibration damping device installed on the support platform inside the conical tower 4 of the wind turbine. An active force actuator 7 is installed between the inner wall of the tower 4 and the inertial-capacitance tuned mass vibration damping device. The inertial-capacitance tuned mass vibration damping device consists of a mass block 5 and a connecting unit 6, with the mass block 5 connected to the inner wall of the tower 4 via the connecting unit 6. The active force actuator 7 is connected to the actuator fuzzy controller. For the mass block 5 of the inertial-capacitance tuned mass vibration damping device, appropriate devices can be arranged according to different site conditions, such as suspending the mass block in the tower using a pendulum, or using liquid or spherical particle mass blocks, etc., in various forms. The connecting unit 6 can adopt different connection methods as needed. The simplest method uses a spring and damping element; after resonance is achieved through the system composed of the mass block and the spring, the damping element absorbs and dissipates energy. In addition, inertial capacitance elements can be added, combined with springs and damping units, to form a tuned mass damper with inerter (TMDI), such as... Figure 2 As shown, this further improves the stability and energy efficiency of the device. Furthermore, depending on the form and number of connecting units, its mechanical topology varies considerably.

[0050] The fuzzy pitch control system comprises a unified pitch controller based on Tkagi-sugneo (TS) fuzzy PID, independent pitch controllers based on Mamdani fuzzy logic, and pitch actuators. The unified pitch controller based on TS fuzzy PID performs fuzzy inference calculations based on the error and rate of change between the real-time monitored wind turbine speed and the target reference value, to obtain a unified pitch angle value. The independent pitch controllers based on Mamdani fuzzy logic perform fuzzy inference calculations based on the measured tower top acceleration and the difference between the bending moment of each blade and the average bending moment of the three blades, to obtain an independent pitch angle adjustment value for each blade. The pitch actuators correct the pitch angle of each blade in real time according to the superposition of the unified pitch angle value and the independent pitch angle adjustment values.

[0051] To facilitate the operation of the control system in this invention, displacement, velocity, and acceleration sensors are installed at the top of the wind turbine tower 4, and these sensors are connected to the tower's fuzzy active control system. The velocity and acceleration sensors collect data on the velocity of the top of the wind turbine tower under external loads. v and acceleration a Then, the speed and acceleration are transmitted to the actuator fuzzy controller. The actuator fuzzy controller obtains the optimal control force through the fuzzy control algorithm, adjusts the real-time force amplitude of the active actuator, and adjusts the interaction force between the vibration damping device and the tower in real time through the active actuator, thereby reducing the vibration response of the wind turbine tower.

[0052] An anemometer is installed at the stern of the nacelle to measure the wind speed at the current hub height. Motor speed and torque are measured by speed and torque meters mounted on the motor shaft, while blade pitch angle is measured by gyroscopes mounted on the blades. Various sensors are connected to the input vectors of their respective algorithm units, and various actuators (such as main power actuators or pitch actuators) are connected to the outputs of their respective algorithm units.

[0053] Example 2: This example provides a method for controlling wind turbine pitch and tower vibration based on fuzzy logic reasoning, specifically including the following steps:

[0054] 1. Obtain the current incoming wind speed, motor speed, motor torque, pitch angle of the three blades, displacement, velocity and acceleration of the top of the support tower;

[0055] 2. When the incoming wind speed is lower than the rated wind speed, the impeller and motor speeds do not reach the rated speeds, and the blade pitch angle is zero. At this time, the fuzzy pitch system does not function, and a torque controller is used to adjust the motor and impeller speeds in real time to improve power generation.

[0056] The tower's vibration response is reduced by adjusting the force of the active actuator in real time using a fuzzy active control system. The specific steps are as follows:

[0057] Speed ​​and acceleration sensors collect data on the top speed of the wind turbine tower under external loads. v and acceleration a The velocity and acceleration are then transmitted to the actuator's fuzzy controller. The fuzzy algorithm used by the actuator's fuzzy controller includes three steps: fuzzification, fuzzy inference, and defuzzification.

[0058] (1) During the fuzzing process, the precise input speed will be... v acceleration a The input quantity is transformed into a fuzzy vector. v and a Different fuzzy subsets can be divided as needed. In this embodiment, the number of fuzzy subsets of the input parameters is set to 7, namely PB, PM, PS, ZO, NS, NM, and NB, which represent positive large, positive medium, positive small, zero, negative small, negative medium, and negative large, respectively.

[0059] Each fuzzy subset is determined based on the membership function of the parameters. Input speed v and acceleration a The membership function can be a nonlinear Gaussian distribution or a linear triangular distribution. After determining the universe of discourse, the distribution of each fuzzy subset within the universe of discourse is determined by the correlation coefficient of the membership function. The coefficients of the Gaussian membership function include the standard deviation and mean of the normal distribution, while the triangular membership function includes regular upper and lower boundaries and peak values. In this embodiment, the wind turbine top speed... v Domain of discourse, acceleration a The domain of the wind turbine is reasonably set according to the actual operating conditions of the wind turbine under different working conditions, and the main power F a The domain of discussion can be determined based on the actual actuator type and device parameters.

[0060] (2) In the fuzzy inference stage, based on the input fuzzy quantity, fuzzy inference is completed through fuzzy control rules to obtain the fuzzy control quantity. In this embodiment, based on speed... v and acceleration a The corresponding fuzzy subset is used to infer the corresponding output force from a pre-defined fuzzy control rule base. F a The fuzzy value. The rules in the fuzzy control rule base are shown in Table 1, and can be further adjusted according to actual circumstances.

[0061] Table 1. Fuzzy Control Rules for Active Power

[0062] .

[0063] (3) In the defuzzification stage, the fuzzy vectors obtained by fuzzy inference are converted into precise quantities. The methods include the maximum membership method, the centroid method, and the weighted average method. Among them, the maximum membership method takes the precise quantity corresponding to the maximum membership in the obtained fuzzy vector as the result of defuzzification. If there are multiple maximum memberships, the average value of the corresponding values ​​is taken as the defuzzification result. The centroid method takes the centroid of the area enclosed by the membership function curve and the horizontal axis as the final output value of fuzzy inference. The weighted average method weights the membership values ​​of the output value and takes their average value.

[0064] like Figure 5 As shown, the optimal control force obtained through fuzzy logic needs to be adjusted before being applied to the active actuator. If the ideal actuator force is too large or a rapid adjustment of the actuator force is required, the actual constraints of the actuator's output amplitude and reaction rate should be considered, and further adjustments are needed before it can be used as the real-time force for adjusting the actuator.

[0065] 3. When the incoming wind speed is higher than the rated wind speed, in order to maintain the stability of the motor speed and power generation, a pitch control system is required to adjust the blade pitch angle and reduce the aerodynamic load on the hub rotor and structure.

[0066] (1) Unified pitch control based on Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy PID

[0067] When the wind speed is higher than the rated wind speed, the rated speed of the motor is a constant value. ω rated Based on the speed value obtained from real-time monitoring ω gen Using the target reference value ω rated Error between e ωg and the rate of change of error ec ωg ( ec ωg =e ωg / dt,dt The pitch angle value of each blade is adjusted uniformly at time intervals.

[0068] Assume the input value of the unified pitch controller is the error. e ωg and ec ωg The output is the PID controller coefficient correction value ∆. K P ∆ K I With ∆ K DThe output ∆ K P ∆ K I With ∆ K D The proportional coefficients of the initial PID controller are respectively K P0 Integral coefficient K I0 With differential coefficients K D0 The parameters are added together to obtain the corrected PID controller parameters, which are then multiplied by their respective components to obtain the unified pitch angle value. β c It can be expressed as follows:

[0069] (1).

[0070] For the unified pitch controller, a TS fuzzy model is used for its establishment. Similarly, the fuzzy subset of the input values ​​is divided into seven categories: PB, PM, PS, ZO, NS, NM, and NB, representing positive large, positive medium, positive small, zero, negative small, negative medium, and negative large, respectively. Among these, the error... e ωg The universe of discourse can be set according to actual needs, and its membership function can adopt a Gaussian or triangular distribution. For the fuzzy logic reasoning part, ∆ K P ∆ K I With ∆ K D The fuzzy control rules are shown in Table 2. The fuzzy control rules can be adjusted according to the actual situation and experience.

[0071] Table 2 ∆ K P ∆ K I With ∆ K D Fuzzy control rule table

[0072] .

[0073] Its fuzzy inference method differs from the Mamdani fuzzy strategy. The inference value obtained by the TS fuzzy model is a functional expression, which can better handle nonlinear situations. Fuzzy values ​​are obtained under different rules. k i,j It is expressed as follows:

[0074] (2);

[0075] In the formula, a i,j ,b i,j and c i,j The first i Rule # j The coefficients of each parameter, i =1,2, …, N ; N The number of all rules; j = 1,2,3, representing ∆ K P ∆ K I With ∆ K D These three coefficients can be determined based on practical experience or obtained through optimized algorithms.

[0076] For example: If e ωg For NB and ec ωg If NB, then ∆ K P / ∆ K I / ∆ K D For PB / NB / NB, the corresponding fuzzy values ​​are respectively k 1,1 , k 1,2 , k 1,3 ,but k 1,1 =a 1,1 ×e ωg + b 1,1 ×ec ωg +c 1,1 , k 1,2 =a 1,2 ×e ωg + b 1,2 ×ec ωg +c 1,2 , k 1,3 =a 1,3 ×e ωg + b 1,3 ×ecωg +c 1,3 .

[0077] In the defuzzing stage, the final output quantity u j ( j = 1,2,3, respectively, ∆ K P ∆ K I With ∆ K D Then, by taking the weights of the values ​​obtained under different rules and combining them, as shown in equation (3):

[0078] (3);

[0079] In the formula, h i For the first i The weight coefficients of each rule can be determined based on practical experience or optimization.

[0080] (2) Independent pitch control based on Mamdani fuzzy logic.

[0081] When the incoming wind speed exceeds the rated wind speed, the blades need to continuously adjust their pitch angle to maintain stable power generation. However, due to wind shear, the wind speed varies with altitude, resulting in inconsistent aerodynamic forces on the blades at different altitudes during rotation. This creates an unbalanced load at the rotor hub, which can easily lead to mechanical fatigue and damage. Using a uniform pitch angle control method is insufficient to eliminate this unbalanced aerodynamic load. Therefore, stress strain gauges are used to measure the out-of-plane root bending moment of each blade in real time. M b,n And combined with the acceleration at the top of the tower measured by the accelerometer at the top of the tower. a Based on the unified pitch control, the pitch angle of each blade is further adjusted. When the tower top acceleration is measured, the relative motion between the blades and the incoming airflow becomes more intense. The blade pitch angle can be appropriately reduced to increase the blade angle of attack, thereby reducing the aerodynamic forces acting on the structure. Similarly, when a large blade root bending moment is measured, the pitch angle can be appropriately adjusted to reduce the aerodynamic load.

[0082] In the measurement of the first n Root bending moment value outside the plane of the root blade M b,n Then, calculate the difference between the bending moment of each blade and the average bending moment of the three blades. M c,n As shown in equation (4). If M c,n If it is positive, then it means that the first... nThe unbalanced bending moment experienced by each blade is greater than the average of the three blades, and vice versa, to assess the differences between each blade. This is combined with the measured tip acceleration. a These values ​​are used together as input to the independent pitch controller, and the output is the pitch angle adjustment value Δ for each blade. β in,n :

[0083] (4).

[0084] During the blurring process, it is also necessary to consider the top acceleration of the input. a Blade bending moment difference M c,n Membership degrees are used to divide the system into corresponding fuzzy subsets. In this strategy, the number of fuzzy sets is set to seven: PB, PM, PS, ZO, NS, NM, and NB, representing positive large, positive medium, positive small, zero, negative small, negative medium, and negative large, respectively. The number of fuzzy sets can be increased, decreased, or adjusted according to actual conditions. Correspondingly, the independent pitch angle adjustment value Δ... β in,n The fuzzy control rules are shown in Table 3. Additionally, the wind turbine tower top acceleration... a Leaf root bending moment difference M c,n The scope of the discussion can also be adjusted according to the specific wind turbine.

[0085] Table 3 Independent Pitch Fuzzy Control Rule Table

[0086] .

[0087] Similarly, the independent pitch angle adjustment values ​​obtained through fuzzy logic are superimposed with the unified pitch angle values ​​obtained through unified pitch control to obtain the final pitch angle of each blade at any given time. β n ,Right now β n = β c + Δ β in,n When issuing specific commands to the pitch bearing actuator, it is also necessary to consider the actuator's acceptable pitch angle adjustment range and adjustment rate. That is, before the final output, pitch angle saturation and rate constraints need to be adjusted.
