[0045] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with specific examples.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] Referring to Figure 1 As shown in the drawings, the method provided by the embodiment is a comprehensive control method based on a plurality of device sets. The method is to connect a plurality of clearance devices to a wind turbine main control unit, calculate and filter clearance data trends based on the clearance data input by the clearance devices, set four clearance control modes, select at least one clearance device as a clearance control device in each clearance control mode according to the clearance data trends of the clearance devices and the working conditions of the wind turbine, and select other clearance devices as clearance reference devices, and then control the wind turbine based on the clearance control device, and when the data fails, the wind turbine enters a safety mode according to the preset data characteristics. The four clearance control modes are mode 1, mode 2, mode 3, and mode 4. The clearance devices include A clearance device, a cabin millimeter wave radar, B clearance device, a tower wall millimeter wave radar, C clearance device, a video clearance device, and D clearance device, a laser radar.

[0048] In the embodiment, mode 1 is specifically implemented as follows:

[0049] Mode 1: All clearance control strategies of the wind turbine are closed, and only clearance data is input. The clearance data trends of the clearance devices are observed under the same working condition, and the clearance device with the smallest trend under the working condition is selected as the clearance control device. The clearance devices are controlled according to different working conditions:

[0050] In the input clearance data, the abnormal data with sudden change is preferentially removed. If the clearance value of the current task period changes by more than the preset maximum error compared with the last task period, the clearance value of the current task period is removed. The clearance data after removal is read for a period of time under the working condition, the standard deviation and the average value of the clearance data are calculated, the clearance data trend value is calculated, the clearance data trend value = average value ± 3*standard deviation, the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the random clearance data of the plurality of clearance devices falling in the probability of 99.73% interval are obtained through normal distribution, and the clearance device with the smallest clearance data trend value is selected as the clearance control device under the working condition. The above process is repeated, and different clearance devices are selected as the clearance control device according to different working conditions. The cabin millimeter wave radar is used for clearance control in the grid-connected working condition, the tower wall millimeter wave radar is used for clearance control in the typhoon working condition, the video clearance device is used for clearance control in the high-low crossing working condition, and the laser radar is used for clearance control in the grid-connected to failure process working condition.

[0051] The clearance control of mode 1 is specifically as follows:

[0052] When the clearance value of the wind turbine is less than the preset minimum clearance limit value, the wind turbine is controlled to stop. When the minimum clearance limit value reaches the maximum clearance control value, the wind turbine is controlled to execute the pitch.

[0053] When any communication fault occurs, the wind turbine is controlled to stop.

[0054] Any time the clearance data is abnormal, the wind turbine is controlled to enter a safe mode.

[0055] Embodiment 2

[0056] Referring to Figure 2 As shown, unlike Embodiment 1, this embodiment specifically implements Mode 2, as follows:

[0057] Mode 2: All clearance control strategies of the wind turbine are turned off, only the clearance data is input, the trend of the clearance data is observed under all working conditions, the clearance device with the smallest trend under the working condition is selected as the clearance control device, and then only a single clearance device of the multiple clearance devices is turned on, and the other devices are used as the clearance reference devices for control:

[0058] In the input clearance data, the abnormal data with sudden changes is preferentially removed, when the clearance value of the current task period changes more than the preset maximum error compared with the clearance value of the previous task period, the clearance value of the current task period is removed, after the clearance data after removal is read for a period of time, the standard deviation and average value of the clearance data are calculated, the trend value of the clearance data is calculated, the trend value of the clearance data = average value ± 3*standard deviation, the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the random clearance data of the multiple clearance devices falling in the probability of 99.73% interval are obtained by the method of normal distribution, then under all working conditions, the clearance device with the lowest clearance data of the lower limit value among the multiple clearance devices is used as the clearance control device, and the other clearance devices are used as the clearance reference devices, the clearance data of the clearance reference devices is processed by the average value, and thus a clearance reference line is obtained; under Mode 2, the nacelle millimeter wave radar is used under all working conditions, and the other clearance devices are used as the reference devices.

[0059] The clearance control of Mode 2 is as follows:

[0060] If the absolute value of the difference between the data input by the clearance control device and the clearance reference line is greater than the safe deviation value, it is considered that the clearance value at this time is invalid, the wind turbine enters the safe mode, and the large pitch angle strategy is turned on; otherwise, it is considered that the clearance value is valid, and the original clearance control can be executed.

[0061] The wind turbine is stopped when the clearance value is less than the minimum clearance limit value, and the feathering control is executed when the minimum clearance limit value is to the maximum clearance control value; if the clearance value is invalid during this period, the current control is executed and then the safe mode is entered.

[0062] The wind turbine is stopped when the communication fault of the clearance control device occurs, and the safe mode is entered when the data is unchanged or abnormal; the wind turbine is stopped only when all the clearance reference devices have communication faults, and the related devices are disabled when one or several devices have communication faults; the safe mode is entered only when all the clearance reference devices have data that is unchanged or abnormal.

[0063] Example 3

[0064] Referring to Figure 3 As shown, unlike Example 1, this embodiment specifically implements Mode 3, as follows:

[0065] Mode 3: All the clearance control strategies of the wind turbine are closed, only the clearance data is input, the trend of the clearance data is observed under the same working condition, the clearance device with the largest trend under this working condition is selected as the clearance reference device, and then only a single clearance device is used as the clearance reference device, and the other multiple clearance devices are controlled:

[0066] The abnormal data with mutations is preferentially removed from the input clearance data. When the clearance value of the current task period is greater than the preset maximum error compared with the clearance value of the previous task period, the clearance value data of the current task period is removed. The clearance data after removal is read for a period of time, the standard deviation and the average value of the clearance data are calculated, the trend value of the clearance data is calculated, the trend value of the clearance data = average value ± 3*standard deviation, the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the random clearance data of multiple clearance devices falling in the probability of 99.73% interval are obtained by the method of normal distribution, then the clearance device with the highest upper limit value among the multiple clearance devices used in all working conditions is obtained as the clearance reference device, and the other clearance devices are used as the clearance control devices for collective control. The clearance data of all the clearance control devices is processed by the average value, and thus a clearance control line is obtained. In Mode 3, the nacelle millimeter wave radar, the tower wall millimeter wave radar and the video clearance device are used for clearance control, and the laser radar is used as the reference device.

[0067] The clearance control of Mode 3 is as follows:

[0068] If the absolute value of the difference between the data input by the clearance control line and the clearance reference device is greater than the safety deviation value, it is considered that the clearance value at this time is invalid, and the wind turbine opens the large pitch angle strategy in the safety mode; otherwise, it is considered that the clearance value is valid, and the original clearance control can be executed.

[0069] The wind turbine is stopped when the clearance value is less than the minimum clearance limit value, and the pitch control is executed when the clearance value is from the minimum clearance limit value to the maximum clearance control value. If the clearance value fails, the current control is executed and then the safety mode is entered.

[0070] The wind turbine is stopped when any of the clearance control devices has a communication failure, and the safety mode is entered when the data is unchanged or abnormal. When the clearance reference device has a communication failure or abnormal data, the device is disabled and a new reference device is selected from the enabled devices.

[0071] Example 4

[0072] Referring to Figure 4As shown, unlike embodiment 1, this embodiment specifically executes mode 4, as follows:

[0073] Mode 4: all clearance control strategies of the wind turbine are started, and the abnormal clearance data with sudden change is removed from the clearance data, if the clearance value of the current task cycle changes more than the maximum error compared with the last task cycle, the clearance value of the current task cycle is removed, then the minimum value of the clearance data inputted by all clearance control devices is processed, thus a clearance control line is obtained, that is, the minimum clearance value in each cycle is obtained, and then all clearance devices are started to perform comprehensive control under various working conditions, that is, all clearance devices are used to perform control under all working conditions.

[0074] The clearance control of mode 4 is as follows:

[0075] When the clearance value is less than the minimum clearance limit value, the wind turbine is stopped, and when the clearance value is from the minimum clearance limit value to the maximum clearance control value, the pitch control is performed; if the clearance value fails, the current control is completed and then the safety mode is entered.

[0076] When any device has communication failure, only the communication failure code is reported and the data acquisition is stopped; when the data of all devices are kept unchanged or abnormal, the safety mode is entered; when any device has data abnormality, only the data abnormality code is reported and the data acquisition is stopped.

[0077] Embodiment 5

[0078] Referring to Figure 5 As shown, unlike embodiment 1, the clearance control is as follows:

[0079] After the data is correctly collected, the clearance control is needed to control each kind of clearance, if the existing device has fault or lacks parts, the clearance reference device should be excluded.

[0080] If the abnormality occurs in the unknown condition, the error will occur when the abnormal device is taken as the clearance reference device to take the average value, thus it is needed to judge whether the communication is abnormal before the average value is taken.

[0081] Embodiment 6

[0082] Referring to Figure 6 As shown, unlike embodiments 1 and 2, this embodiment specifically executes mode 2, and the clearance control is as follows:

[0083] The program actively closes the tower wall type millimeter wave clearance radar control enable in rainy days;

[0084] The program actively closes the video clearance device control enable in snowy days;

[0085] When the control is enabled to be turned off, the corresponding device will no longer be put into the control device or the reference device option.

[0086] Embodiment 7

[0087] Referring to Figure 7 As shown, unlike Embodiments 1 and 3, this embodiment specifically implements Mode 3, and the headroom control is specifically as follows:

[0088] According to different use scenarios, the strategy for selecting the headroom device is also different, and a normal distribution method is used.

[0089] From the perspective of safety, the headroom device with the minimum value of (average value-3*standard deviation) should be selected as the control data;

[0090] From the perspective of power generation efficiency, the headroom device with the maximum value of (average value-3*standard deviation) should be selected as the control data;

[0091] From the perspective of stable headroom value, the headroom device with the minimum standard deviation should be selected as the control data.
