[0002] Wind energy is a renewable energy source, and wind power generation has become an important choice for countries worldwide to develop clean energy. However, in cold weather conditions, wind turbine blades are prone to icing, which severely affects the performance and normal operation of the turbines, leading to turbine shutdown and reduced wind power output, exacerbating the power shortage in winter. Therefore, predicting the icing thickness of wind turbine blades is crucial, as it can guide the on-site response and dispatching plans in advance, ensuring power supply. Current research methods for predicting wind turbine blade icing often use empirical or simplified models. These models are mainly based on statistical analysis and historical data, and cannot account for the impact of changes in meteorological conditions on wind turbine icing. Therefore, their prediction accuracy is low and cannot meet the needs of practical applications. Summary of the Invention

[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for illustration and explanation of the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0039] Figure 1 A schematic flowchart illustrating a method for predicting wind turbine icing thickness according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 1 As shown in one embodiment of this application, a method for predicting the icing thickness of a wind turbine is provided, comprising the following steps:
[0040] S102, determine the predicted meteorological data for the target area during a preset time period before the target time point.
[0041] The target area refers to the geographical region where the wind farm is located. The target time point refers to any future time point, which can be customized. The preset time period is a period of time before and including the target time point, and can also be customized. For example, if the target time point is 4 PM on the 15th day after the current time, then the preset time period could be the period between 4 PM on the 14th day and 4 PM on the 15th day. Forecast meteorological data refers to the meteorological elements predicted for the wind farm within the preset time period. Meteorological elements include at least one of the following: ambient temperature, precipitation, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity, and air pressure. Through the meteorological numerical forecasting model, the processor can select the model calculation area based on the target area where the wind farm is located, and drive the numerical forecasting model based on static data such as topographic elevation of the target area and global large-scale meteorological data to provide predicted meteorological data such as precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed for the target area where the wind farm is located within the preset time period.
[0042] S104, determine the predicted icing status of each wind turbine in the target area at the target time point based on the predicted meteorological data.
[0043] The processor can determine the predicted icing status of each wind turbine in the target area at a target time point based on predicted meteorological data such as precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed for a preset time period in the future. The predicted icing status refers to the predicted icing state of the turbine blades at a future time, determining whether the turbine will become icy. The predicted icing status can be caused by freezing fog or freezing rain.
[0044] S106, Obtain the blade parameters of each wind turbine in the target area.
[0045] S108 determines the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point based on the predicted meteorological data and the blade parameters of each wind turbine.
[0046] The blade parameters of a wind turbine include the blade rotation radius and the number of revolutions per second. The processor can calculate the predicted linear velocity of each wind turbine blade tip at a target time point based on the wind speed, blade rotation radius, and blade revolutions from forecast meteorological data within a preset time period. The predicted linear velocity refers to the predicted relative velocity between the blade tip of the rotating wind turbine blade and water vapor within the preset time period.
[0047] S110, based on the predicted icing status, predicted linear velocity, and predicted meteorological data of each wind turbine, determine the predicted icing increment value of each wind turbine within a preset time period.
[0048] The processor can determine the specific icing situation of each wind turbine based on the predicted icing state. If the predicted meteorological environment at the target time point will not cause icing of the turbine blades, the predicted icing increment value is zero. If the predicted meteorological environment at the target time point will cause icing of the turbine blades, then for different predicted icing states, the processor can predict the predicted icing increment value for each wind turbine within a preset time period based on the predicted linear velocity and predicted meteorological data for that wind turbine within that preset time period. The predicted icing increment value refers to the predicted increase in the thickness of the icing on the turbine blades.
[0049] S112, determine the predicted icing thickness of each wind turbine at the target time point based on the predicted icing increment.
[0050] The current icing thickness of each wind turbine can be obtained through direct measurement. Therefore, for a target time point in the future, the processor can add the cumulative predicted icing increment to the current icing thickness to obtain the predicted icing thickness for each turbine at that target time. Meteorological data significantly impacts wind power generation, especially for wind turbines located in mountainous areas with strong winds, where frequent winter cold waves and freezing disasters can cause turbine blades to become icy and shut down. Therefore, monitoring meteorological data can scientifically guide dispatching departments to adjust operating modes in advance, protecting the lifespan and normal operation of wind turbine generators.
[0051] In one embodiment, the predicted meteorological data includes wind speed, the blade parameters include blade rotation radius and blade rotation number, and determining the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point based on the predicted meteorological data and the blade parameters of each wind turbine includes: determining the blade tip speed ratio of each wind turbine based on the blade rotation radius and blade rotation number of each wind turbine; determining the blade tip linear velocity of each wind turbine based on the blade tip speed ratio of each wind turbine; and determining the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point based on the wind speed and the blade tip linear velocity of each wind turbine.
[0052] Tip linear velocity refers to the theoretical linear velocity of the fan blade tip, which is related to the parameters of the fan blade itself. The ambient wind speed affects the tip linear velocity of the fan during rotation. Therefore, the predicted linear velocity is calculated using the following formula (4):
[0053]
[0054] Where U refers to the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point, and v x This refers to the tip linear velocity of each wind turbine blade at the target time point, v. c This refers to the wind speed in the target area where each wind turbine is located during a preset time period.
[0055] In one embodiment, the predicted meteorological data includes atmospheric temperature, ground temperature, and relative humidity. Determining the predicted icing state of each wind turbine in the target area at a target time point based on the predicted meteorological data includes: determining the ice content of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period based on the atmospheric temperature; determining the predicted icing state of each wind turbine at the target time point as freezing rain icing state when the ice content is less than a preset threshold and the ground temperature is less than a preset temperature; and determining the predicted icing state of each wind turbine at the target time point as freezing fog icing state when the relative humidity is greater than a preset relative humidity and the ground temperature is less than a preset temperature.
[0056] Wind turbine blade icing is typically caused by freezing fog and / or freezing rain. The processor can determine the ice content of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period based on the predicted atmospheric temperature. The preset threshold is the maximum ice content of precipitation particles falling to the ground during freezing rain. The preset temperature is the highest ground temperature during freezing rain and / or freezing fog. The preset relative humidity refers to the maximum relative humidity of the atmosphere during freezing fog. Only when the predicted ice content is less than the preset threshold and the ground temperature is less than the preset temperature can the weather during the preset time period be determined to be freezing rain, and the wind turbine may experience icing due to freezing rain at the target time. In this case, the processor can determine the predicted icing state of the wind turbine at the target time as freezing rain icing. For freezing fog prediction, the weather during the target time period can only be predicted to be freezing fog if the predicted relative humidity is greater than the preset relative humidity and the ground temperature is less than the preset temperature, and the predicted icing state of the wind turbine at the target time is freezing fog icing.
[0057] In one embodiment, the processor can determine the ice content of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period based on atmospheric temperature. The cloud top temperature of the solid precipitation particle formation layer is less than -6.6℃, and the precipitation particles in the formation layer are in a completely frozen state. During the precipitation particle descent, the melting rate is calculated layer by layer by performing vertical integration from the cloud top height downwards. Then, the ice content of the precipitation particles when they fall to the ground can be calculated according to formula (1):
[0058]
[0059] Where I refers to the ice content of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period, W refers to the atmospheric thermal conductivity of the target area within a preset time period, z refers to the descent altitude of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period, T refers to the atmospheric temperature of the target area within a preset time period, and p i "r" refers to the density of ice, and "r" refers to the radius of the precipitation particles.
[0060] In one embodiment, the predicted meteorological data further includes precipitation and supercooled water content. Determining the predicted icing increment for each wind turbine within a preset time period based on the predicted icing state, predicted linear velocity, and predicted meteorological data for each wind turbine includes: for each wind turbine, if the predicted icing state is freezing rain icing, determining a first predicted icing increment for the wind turbine within a preset time period based on precipitation, supercooled water content, and the predicted linear velocity of the wind turbine blades; for each wind turbine, if the predicted icing state is freezing fog icing, determining a second predicted icing increment for the wind turbine within a preset time period based on the supercooled water content and the predicted linear velocity of the wind turbine blades; and for each wind turbine, determining the predicted icing increment for the wind turbine within a preset time period based on the first and / or second predicted icing increments.
[0061] When the predicted icing condition for a wind turbine is freezing rain icing, precipitation, supercooled water content, and the predicted linear velocity of the turbine blades will affect the increase in icing thickness. Therefore, the processor can calculate the first incremental predicted value of icing caused by freezing rain for each wind turbine within a preset time period based on the above data. When the predicted icing condition for a wind turbine is freezing fog icing, supercooled water content and the predicted linear velocity of the turbine blades will affect the increase in icing thickness. Therefore, the processor can calculate the second incremental predicted value of icing caused by freezing fog for each wind turbine within a preset time period based on the above data. Within the preset time period, there may be a period of freezing rain, a period of freezing fog, or both. Therefore, for each wind turbine, the processor can predict the incremental icing value for the wind turbine within the preset time period based on the first incremental predicted value and / or the second incremental predicted value.
[0062] In one embodiment, for each wind turbine, when the predicted icing state of the wind turbine is freezing rain icing, determining the first incremental predicted value of icing for the wind turbine in a preset time period based on precipitation, supercooled water content, and predicted linear velocity of the wind turbine blades includes determining the first incremental predicted value of icing for each wind turbine in a preset time period according to formula (2):
[0063]
[0064] Among them, E frz This refers to the first incremental prediction value, p, for each wind turbine within a preset time period. i ρ0 refers to the density of ice, p is the precipitation in the target area during the preset time period, U is the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point, and M is the subcooled water content in the target area during the preset time period.
[0065] In one embodiment, for each wind turbine, when the predicted icing state of the wind turbine is freezing fog icing state, the second incremental predicted value of the icing of the wind turbine in the preset time period is determined according to the supercooled water content and the predicted linear velocity of the wind turbine blades, including determining the second incremental predicted value of the icing of each wind turbine in the preset time period according to formula (3).
[0066] E fog =M×U×Δt×p air ×β (3)
[0067] Among them, E fog This refers to the second incremental predicted value of icing for each wind turbine within a preset time period; M refers to the supercooled water content in the target area within the preset time period; U refers to the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point; Δt refers to the preset time period; and ρ... air β refers to the atmospheric density of the target area during a preset time period, while β refers to the freezing coefficient of each wind turbine during the preset time period.
[0068] In one specific embodiment, a method for predicting the icing thickness of a wind turbine is provided, comprising the following steps:
[0069] Step 1: Select the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model developed by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) as the meteorological numerical forecasting model to predict meteorological data for a wind farm in Hunan Province from February 13th to 15th, 2023. The wind farm has 25 wind turbines, each with an installed capacity of 2MW. A two-layer nested simulation area is used, with horizontal resolutions of 9km and 3km respectively. A 6-hour interval is used... ° ×1 ° Spatially resolved GFS (Global Forecast System) weather forecast products drive the WRF model to simulate and obtain predicted meteorological data such as precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed. Figure 2 As shown, the predicted temperature and relative humidity of the numerical weather prediction model are very close to the actual temperature and relative humidity, which simulates the atmospheric cold layer structure and the near-saturated air relative humidity in the lower layer of the wind farm area during freezing fog.
[0070] Step 2: Using the predicted wind speed and the tip linear velocity of each wind turbine, calculate the predicted linear velocity according to the following formula (4):
[0071]
[0072] Where U refers to the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point, and v x This refers to the tip linear velocity of each wind turbine blade at the target time point, v. c This refers to the wind speed in the target area where each wind turbine is located during a preset time period.
[0073] Step 3: Determine the ice content of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period based on atmospheric temperature. The cloud top temperature of the solid precipitation particle formation layer is less than -6.6℃, and the precipitation particles in the formation layer are in a completely frozen state. During the precipitation particle descent, the melting rate is calculated layer by layer by performing vertical integration from the cloud top height downwards. Therefore, the ice content of precipitation particles when they fall to the ground can be calculated according to formula (1):
[0074]
[0075] Where I refers to the ice content of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period, W refers to the atmospheric thermal conductivity of the target area within a preset time period, z refers to the descent altitude of precipitation particles falling to the ground within a preset time period, T refers to the atmospheric temperature of the target area within a preset time period, and p i "r" refers to the density of ice, and "r" refers to the radius of the precipitation particles.
[0076] Step 4: If the ice content is less than 0.8 and the ground temperature is less than zero degrees Celsius, freezing rain is considered to be present. At this time, the first incremental prediction value of icing for each wind turbine within a preset time period is determined according to formula (2):
[0077]
[0078] Among them, E frz This refers to the first incremental prediction value, p, for each wind turbine within a preset time period. i ρ0 refers to the density of ice, p is the precipitation in the target area during the preset time period, U is the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point, and M is the subcooled water content in the target area during the preset time period.
[0079] When the ground temperature is below zero degrees Celsius and the relative humidity is above 90%, freezing fog is considered to exist. In this case, the second incremental prediction value of icing for each wind turbine within a preset time period is determined according to formula (3).
[0080] E fog = ×U×Δt×p air ×β (3)
[0081] Among them, E fogThis refers to the second incremental predicted value of icing for each wind turbine within a preset time period; M refers to the supercooled water content in the target area within the preset time period; U refers to the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip of each wind turbine at the target time point; Δt refers to the preset time period; and ρ... air β refers to the atmospheric density of the target area during a preset time period, while β refers to the freezing coefficient of each wind turbine during the preset time period.
[0082] Step 5: Combining the first incremental forecast values of wind turbines during freezing rain and freezing fog, calculate the predicted icing thickness during the numerical weather prediction model integration process. The calculation results are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, it was predicted that the wind turbines at this wind farm would begin icing at 00:00 on February 13th, and the icing would continue to increase until reaching its thickest point that evening. In reality, the turbines began to shut down gradually on the morning of February 13th, and all turbine capacity was taken out of standby by the afternoon of the same day. It was predicted that the icing would rapidly weaken from the early morning of February 15th, and the turbines were gradually restarted in the early morning of the 15th, with all turbines resuming operation by the morning of the same day, thus concluding the turbine icing and standby process. In summary, the predicted turbine icing situation is highly consistent with the actual turbine operation. This method has good predictive value for wind turbine blade icing and can provide important guidance for wind farm power forecasting, station operation and maintenance, and scheduling planning.
[0083] Using the aforementioned method, device, storage medium, and processor for predicting wind turbine icing thickness, and employing a numerical weather prediction model, predicted meteorological data for a predetermined time period prior to the target time point can be determined for the target area. Based on predicted meteorological data such as atmospheric temperature, ground temperature, precipitation, and supercooled water content, the predicted icing state of each wind turbine in the target area at the target time point is determined. The blade parameters of each wind turbine in the target area are acquired, and the predicted linear velocity of the blade tip at the target time point is determined based on the predicted meteorological data and the blade parameters. Based on the predicted icing state, predicted linear velocity, and predicted meteorological data for each wind turbine, the predicted icing increment for freezing rain and freezing fog during the predetermined time period is determined for each wind turbine. The predicted icing thickness at the target time point is then determined based on the predicted icing increment. By accurately predicting the future icing thickness of wind turbines based on the impact of meteorological conditions on wind turbine icing, dispatching departments can scientifically guide the adjustment of operating modes in advance, protecting the service life and normal operation of wind turbine generators. It can predict the icing thickness of wind turbine blades, guide the prediction of wind turbine reserve capacity and advance scheduling plans, and ensure power supply in winter.

Figure 1The steps in the flowchart are shown sequentially as indicated by the arrows, but these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless otherwise specified herein, there is no strict order in which these steps are executed, and they can be performed in other orders.
