Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to offshore wind power generation technology, and more particularly to a dynamic testing device for a floating wind power platform. Background Technology
[0002] my country possesses abundant offshore wind energy resources. With the vigorous development of technologies such as offshore platforms, port engineering, and water conservancy projects, wind energy development has gradually expanded from flat and complex terrain on land to nearshore areas and even deep-sea areas. Floating offshore wind power generation has enormous development potential.
[0003] Currently, floating offshore wind turbines generally consist of turbine blades, nacelle, tower, floating structure, and mooring system. Under the complex excitation of random waves, ocean currents, wind loads, and earthquakes in the open sea, their structures are highly susceptible to vibration. Large-amplitude vibrations severely affect the normal and safe operation of the wind turbine. To ensure the safety, economy, and stability of the structure, it is essential to analyze the hydrodynamic characteristics and dynamic response of floating offshore wind turbine platforms under the coupled effects of waves, currents, wind loads, and earthquakes. Most analyses of the hydrodynamic characteristics and dynamic response of floating offshore wind turbines under multi-field coupling effects employ mathematical models or physical models.
[0004] The mathematical modeling analysis involves numerous simplifications, leading to significant errors in the results. Physical modeling analysis primarily utilizes artificially constructed experimental facilities to simulate hydrodynamic characteristics. Specifically, these facilities include small wave-current flumes, large wind tunnels, and underwater shaking tables. However, wave-current flumes cannot accurately simulate the effects of different wind directions or seismic excitation directions on wind turbine platforms. While large wind tunnels and underwater shaking tables are feasible, they typically involve long construction periods, high costs, complex waterproofing measures, and high testing costs.

[0063] Currently, dynamic testing of floating wind turbine platforms includes testing their motion under wind conditions, underwater seismic conditions, and a combination of both. The flow-through tank technology in related techniques has the following shortcomings:
[0064] First, flow-through tanks cannot simulate the effects of earthquakes. Second, because wind direction at sea is unpredictable, the direction of the earthquake's epicenter relative to the floating wind turbine platform is also unpredictable; flow-through tanks cannot accurately represent the impact of different wind directions or different earthquake excitation directions on the wind turbine platform. Large wind tunnel laboratories and underwater vibration tables are also options, but these facilities typically have long construction periods, are expensive, require complex waterproofing measures, and have high testing costs.
[0065] This application provides a dynamic testing device for a floating wind power platform to solve the problem that physical models in related technologies are difficult to accurately reproduce the actual use scenarios of wind power platforms.
[0066] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 2 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the mounting platform, angle adjustment device, and wind power platform of the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform provided in the embodiments of this application.
[0067] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform in this embodiment includes: a water tank structure 10, a mounting platform 20, an angle adjustment device 30, a wind power platform 40, and a traction device 50.
[0068] The water tank structure 10 includes a tank body 11, a wave-generating device 12 and a wave-damping device 13 disposed within the tank body 11, with the wave-generating device 12 located at the first end of the tank body 11 and the wave-damping device 13 located at the second end of the tank body 11; the mounting platform 20 is disposed on the bottom wall of the tank body 11; the angle adjustment device 30 includes an annular slide rail 31 disposed on the mounting platform 20 and a sliding structure 32 slidably disposed on the annular slide rail 31; the wind power platform 40 includes a floating platform 41 and a wind power generation device 42 fixedly connected to the floating platform 41; the traction device 50 includes multiple traction chains 51, with the first end of each traction chain 51 connected to the floating platform 41 and the second end of each traction chain 51 connected to the sliding structure 32, and the first ends of the multiple traction chains 51 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the floating platform 41.
[0069] Applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the water tank structure 10 includes a tank body 11, and a wave-generating device 12 and a wave-dissipating device 13 disposed within the tank body 11. The wave-generating device 12 is used to generate turbulent water flow to simulate the actual wave and current action at sea, and the wave-dissipating device 13 is used to reduce the reflection effect of waves, so as to make the water flow environment within the tank body 11 closer to the marine environment. The wind power platform 40 includes a floating platform 41 and a wind power generation device 42 fixedly connected to the floating platform 41, wherein the floating platform 41 is used to simulate the floating foundation of an actual offshore floating wind power platform, and the wind power generation device 42 is used to simulate the wind power generation equipment of an actual offshore floating wind power platform.
[0070] An installation platform 20 is provided on the bottom wall of the tank 11, and an angle adjustment device 30 is provided on the installation platform 20. The angle adjustment device 30 is connected to the wind power platform 40 through a traction device 50. When water is filled into the tank 11, the wind power platform 40 will float up under the action of buoyancy. The traction device 50 can simulate the mooring system of an offshore floating wind power platform, which can provide a positioning effect for the floating wind power platform. In this embodiment, the first ends of the plurality of traction chains 51 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the floating platform 41, so that each traction chain 51 can apply a uniform traction force to the floating platform 41.
[0071] The angle adjustment device 30 includes an annular slide rail 31 mounted on the mounting platform 20 and a sliding structure 32 slidably mounted on the annular slide rail 31. The position of the sliding structure 32 on the annular slide rail 31 is adjustable. The wind turbine platform 40 is fixed to the sliding structure 32 by a traction chain 51. When it is necessary to adjust the rotation direction of the wind turbine platform 40, the sliding structure 32 can be rotated to make it slide on the annular slide rail 31, thereby adjusting the rotation angle of the wind turbine platform 40.
[0072] Using the technical solution of this embodiment, the sliding structure 32 can rotate on the annular slide rail 31, thereby simulating the impact of different wind directions or different seismic excitation directions on the wind power generation platform.
[0073] It should be noted that the length of the tank 11 is much greater than the width of the cross-section of the tank 11.
[0074] The floating foundation of a floating wind power platform can be semi-submersible, Spar type, or tension leg type. In this embodiment, the wind power platform 40 is a semi-submersible structure. In other embodiments, the wind power platform can also be configured in other forms.
[0075] The floating platform 41 of the wind power platform 40 includes three spaced cubic pontoons and a cylindrical pontoon located at the center of the three cubic pontoons. The three cubic pontoons and the cylindrical pontoon are connected by a connecting frame, and the center of gravity of the floating platform 41 is located on the cylindrical pontoon.
[0076] During processing, the cubic and cylindrical pontoons need to be immersed in water to check for leaks. After passing the inspection, the gyroscope, the third accelerometer, and the center of gravity indicator structure 90 are installed on the cylindrical pontoon and positioned at the center of gravity of the floating platform 41.
[0077] The wind power generation device 42 includes a column and blades, and the wind power generation device 42 is fixedly connected to the wind power platform 40.
[0078] Figure 3 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the mounting platform and angle adjustment device of the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform provided in the embodiments of this application.
[0079] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in this embodiment, the sliding structure 32 includes a sliding frame 321 and multiple sliders 322. The multiple sliders 322 are evenly spaced on the sliding frame 321, and each slider 322 slides in cooperation with the annular slide rail 31. The second ends of multiple traction chains 51 are all connected to the sliding frame 321. In the above structure, the multiple sliders 322 are evenly spaced on the sliding frame 321, and the second ends of multiple traction chains 51 are all connected to the sliding frame 321. Therefore, when the sliding frame 321 is rotated, the multiple sliders 322 can maintain a uniform interval, and there will be no uneven interval between the multiple sliders 322. This ensures that the multiple traction chains 51 are evenly spaced, thereby generating a uniform traction force on the wind power platform 40.
[0080] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the sliding frame 321 includes a plurality of sliding rods 3211 arranged at an angle. Each sliding rod 3211 extends radially along the annular slide rail 31. The first end of each sliding rod 3211 faces the center of the annular slide rail 31. The second ends of the plurality of sliding rods 3211 are evenly spaced in the circumferential direction of the annular slide rail 31. A slider 322 is provided at the second end of each sliding rod 3211. The second end of the traction chain 51 is connected to the sliding rod 3211. The sliding frame 321 described above has a stable structure and is easy to manufacture.
[0081] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the sliding structure 32 further includes: a movable adjustment member 323, which is adjustablely positioned on the sliding frame 321 along the radial direction of the annular slide rail 31. The movable adjustment member 323 includes multiple members, which are evenly spaced in the circumferential direction of the annular slide rail 31. Each movable adjustment member 323 is provided with a traction chain fixing part 3232. Multiple traction ropes are provided in one-to-one correspondence with multiple movable adjustment members 323. The second end of each traction chain 51 is connected to the traction chain fixing part 3232.
[0082] The movable adjustment component 323 allows the position of the second end of the traction rope on the sliding structure 32 to be adjustable, thereby enabling the dynamic test device of the floating wind power platform to simulate the effect of different extension angles of the traction rope on the wind power platform 40.
[0083] Figure 4 A three-dimensional structural diagram of a portion of the angle adjustment device of the dynamic testing apparatus for a floating wind power platform provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the assembly structure of the moving adjustment component and sliding rod of the dynamic testing device for a floating wind power platform provided in this application embodiment.
[0084] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, in this embodiment, the movable adjustment member 323 includes a movable sleeve 3231 sleeved on the sliding rod 3211 and a first locking member 3233 passing through the movable sleeve 3231. The traction chain fixing part 3232 is disposed on the movable sleeve 3231, and the end of the first locking member 3233 is in contact with the sliding rod 3211.
[0085] In the above structure, when it is necessary to change the setting position of the movable adjustment member 323, first turn the first locking member 3233 away from the sliding rod 3211, place the movable sleeve 3231 in the predetermined position, and then tighten the first locking member 3233, which makes the adjustment convenient.
[0086] Furthermore, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the slider 322 includes a sliding portion 3221 and a second locking member 3222 disposed on the sliding portion 3221. The bottom of the sliding portion 3221 is provided with a groove that cooperates with the annular slide rail 31. The second locking member 3222 passes through the sliding portion 3221 and contacts and cooperates with the annular slide rail 31. In the above structure, the cooperation between the sliding portion 3221 and the annular slide rail 31 ensures the smooth sliding of the sliding portion 3221. The second locking member 3222 facilitates locking the slider 322.
[0087] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting platform 20 is slidably mounted on the bottom wall of the tank 11, and the dynamic testing device also includes a vibration device 60 and a transmission device 70.
[0088] The vibration device 60 is installed on the side of the wind power platform 40. The vibration device 60 includes a mounting plate 61 fixedly installed on the trough 11 and a vibrator 62 installed on the mounting plate 61. The mounting plate 61 is fixedly connected to the trough 11.
[0089] The first end of the transmission device 70 is connected to the vibration end of the vibrator 62, and the second end of the transmission device 70 is connected to the mounting platform 20.
[0090] The vibration device 60 generates vibrational force, which is transmitted to the mounting platform 20 via the transmission device 70. The mounting platform 20 then sways, simulating the excitation scenario of an underwater earthquake. The rotation direction of the wind turbine platform 40 is adjusted by the angle adjustment device 30. The angle between the windward side of the wind turbine platform 40 and the vertical plane containing the axis of the mounting platform 20 is used to simulate the influence of different earthquake source directions on the wind turbine platform 40. The vibrator 62 can be connected to the transmission device 70 via a connecting plate. The transmission device can be a transmission rod, which is symmetrically arranged along the axis of the vibrator 62.
[0091] It should be noted that the axis of the vibrator 62 and the axis of the mounting platform 20 are located in the same vertical plane.
[0092] Figure 7 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the vibration device and transmission device of the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform provided in the embodiments of this application.
[0093] like Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, a first acceleration sensor 81 is provided at the vibration end of the vibration device 60, and a second acceleration sensor 82 is provided on the mounting platform 20. The first acceleration sensor 81 is used to accurately measure the acceleration of the vibrator 62. The second acceleration sensor 82 is used to measure the acceleration of the mounting platform 20. The acceleration signal measured by the second acceleration sensor 82 is used as the seismic acceleration signal input to the wind power platform 40.
[0094] Furthermore, by comparing the measurement results of the first acceleration sensor 81 with those of the second acceleration sensor 82, the loss of vibration force under the resistance of water can be known, thereby reflecting the flow state of the water body.
[0095] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform also includes a gyroscope and a third accelerometer. The gyroscope is mounted on the floating platform 41 and located on the center line of gravity of the floating platform 41. The gyroscope can be used to measure the rotational angular velocity and motion acceleration of the wind power platform 40 in roll, pitch, and yaw.
[0096] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform further includes: a center of gravity indicator structure 90 and a strain displacement measuring device. The center of gravity indicator structure 90 is disposed on the floating platform 41 and located at the center of gravity of the floating platform 41; the strain displacement measuring device is disposed outside the tank 11 and opposite to the center of gravity indicator structure 90, and the strain displacement measuring device is used to acquire images of the movement position of the center of gravity indicator structure 90.
[0097] The strain displacement measuring device is a non-contact measuring device. Since the tank 11 and the water injected into the tank 11 are transparent, the strain displacement measuring device can be set outside the tank 11 to acquire data on the center of gravity indicator structure 90 at high frame rate and high precision. By converting the graphic information of the front and rear position and deformation of the center of gravity indicator structure 90 into digital information through vision software, the changes in the sway, longitudinal sway and heave of the wind power platform 40 can be obtained.
[0098] like Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform further includes: a wind outlet device 100 and a first wind speed detection device 111. The wind outlet device 100 includes a mounting frame 101 fixedly mounted on the tank 11 and multiple wind turbines 102 mounted on the mounting frame 101. The first wind speed detection device 111 is mounted on the tank 11 and located between the wind outlet device 100 and the wind power generation device 42. The wind outlet device 100 is used to simulate wind force and speed at sea for the floating wind power platform. When it is necessary to change the wind direction, it is not necessary to adjust the position of the wind outlet device 100; only the angle of the wind power platform 40 needs to be adjusted.
[0099] The first wind speed detection device 111 can detect wind speed, making it convenient for operators to adjust the wind intensity.
[0100] Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the air outlet device of the power testing apparatus for a floating wind power platform provided in this application embodiment;
[0101] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform further includes a second wind speed detection device 112, which is located on the side of the wind power generation device 42 away from the wind outlet device 100. The second wind speed detection device 112 can increase the number of wind speed detection points, thereby allowing for multi-point measurement of wind speed.
[0102] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform also includes a strain gauge 120, which is disposed on the wind power generation device 42. Specifically, the strain gauge 120 can be disposed on the column of the wind power generation device 42 or on the blade, thereby obtaining the deformation of the wind power generation device 42 and the stress on the blade.
[0103] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform also includes multiple flow meters 130, which are spaced apart along the height of the tank 11. The multiple flow meters 130 are used to acquire flow velocity parameters for different water bodies and different processes.
[0104] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the dynamic testing device for the floating wind power platform further includes a wave height meter 140, which is installed inside the tank 11 to obtain the wave height parameters of the water flow inside the tank.
[0105] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the traction chain 51 includes a first traction segment 511 and a second traction segment 512, and a tension sensor 513 disposed between the first traction segment 511 and the second traction segment 512. The first traction segment 511 is connected to the floating platform 41, and the second traction segment 512 is connected to the mounting platform 20. The tension sensor 513 is used to acquire the tension parameters of the traction chain 51.
[0106] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the traction device 50 further includes a length adjustment device 52, through which the first end of the traction chain 51 is connected to the floating platform 41. The length adjustment device 52 can be used to adjust the length of the traction chain 51, thereby enabling the wind power platform 40 to be in different floating positions, thus facilitating the analysis of the motion state of the wind power platform 40 when it is in different floating positions.
[0107] Compared with the physical experimental models in related technologies, this embodiment has the following advantages:
[0108] 1. The experimental device proposed in this embodiment has a short construction period, low cost, simple structure, and high reliability. It can simulate the multi-field coupled marine environment under the action of seismic load, wind load, and wave and current load, and can accurately reflect the dynamic response and hydrodynamic performance of the prototype structure under actual sea conditions. It can provide strong support for subsequent structural optimization and design.
[0109] 2. This application can realize hydrodynamic characteristics and dynamic response analysis tests of various types of offshore wind turbine floating foundations, such as semi-submersible, Spar, or tension leg structures. Through the same test method, the structural performance of different types of floating offshore wind turbine platforms can be fairly compared.
[0110] 3. This embodiment employs a movable adjusting component, allowing the second end of the traction chain to be slidably adjusted. This simulates the effect of different anchor cable angles and the angle between the anchor cable and the sea level on the floating wind turbine platform, enabling the analysis of a series of key parameters. An angle adjustment device is installed, allowing the sliding frame to rotate freely on a circular slide rail via a slider. Once rotated to a set angle, it is fixed by a second locking component, simulating the effect of different wind directions or seismic excitation directions on the wind turbine platform 40.
[0111] 4. The air outlet device 100 in this embodiment uses an array of fans 102, which has a simple structure, is easy to install, and has low cost. It is installed above the water tank, which can effectively avoid waterproofing problems. This device can simulate the stress of offshore wind load on the floating wind turbine tower and blades.
[0112] 5. In this embodiment, a vibration device 60 is used to simulate an undersea earthquake. The vibration device 60 is connected to the mounting platform 20 through a transmission device 70. The bottom of the mounting platform 20 is equipped with guide rails and guide sliders. The guide rails ensure the consistency and coordination of the movement of the vibration device 60 and the mounting platform 20. Compared with traditional large vibration tables, the test cost is greatly reduced. All the connecting parts of the transmission device 70 are rigidly connected to provide sufficient stability. The axis of the vibrator 62 and the axis of the mounting platform 20 are located in the same vertical plane to avoid eccentric loads on the structure and reduce the loss of ground motion.
[0113] 6. In this embodiment, a gyroscope and a non-contact strain-displacement measurement device are used to measure the motion attitude of the floating wind turbine test model in six degrees of freedom, namely roll, pitch, yaw, sway, heave, and sway. This invention adjusts the initial pretension of the traction chain through a length adjustment device and monitors the tension of the traction chain in real time by setting up multiple sets of tension sensors. It realistically simulates and analyzes the dynamic response of the traction chain under multi-field coupling, providing a reliable reference for the design of the mooring system of actual floating offshore wind power.
[0114] Therefore, this embodiment provides a dynamic testing device for a floating wind power platform. This testing device can accurately reflect the stress characteristics of the prototype structure under actual sea conditions and can provide strong support for the structural optimization and design of the prototype floating offshore wind turbine platform.
