Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of wind turbines, and more specifically, to a load simulation method, device and storage medium for a wind turbine generator set. Background Art
[0002] During the entire life cycle of a wind farm, it is necessary to ensure that the wind turbine has a normal operating life of 20 years. This requires that during the design phase of the wind turbine, the load strength caused by various wind conditions that the unit is subjected to during operation must be considered. Fatigue load and limit load are two important parameters for measuring the safety performance of wind turbines. The traditional method is to calibrate the load of the unit based on the wind turbine design specifications in the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standard. However, in the load test and simulation comparison of the operating unit, it was found that there was a large error between the two, and the maximum fatigue load error reached 30%. This has led to an endless stream of unit failure problems in actual operating wind farms, and unit vibration, blade sweeping towers, tower collapses and other phenomena often occur. How to reduce the simulation deviation, that is, the deviation between the simulation load and the test load, so as to more accurately simulate the wind turbine load, is an urgent problem to be solved within the industry.

[0047] Figure 1 is a flow chart showing a load simulation method for a wind turbine generator set according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0048] Reference Figure 1 In step S101, the terrain information of the target wind farm where the target wind turbine generator set is located and the measured wind parameters of the predetermined observation points are obtained.
[0049] It should be understood that the target wind turbine generator set is the wind turbine generator set to be subjected to load simulation, and the target wind farm is the wind farm to which the target wind turbine generator set has or will belong. If the present disclosure is applied to the wind turbine design stage, the target wind turbine generator set and the target wind farm are both under design, and the target wind farm at this time is a virtual wind farm. If the wind farm has been clearly sited, the target wind farm is the site where the wind farm is to be built with the selected address. If the wind farm has only selected an approximate location, or has only determined the applicable area of the unit, and has not completely clarified the site selection, the target wind farm can be a representative regional terrain, or a wind farm that has been built in the area, as a site reference for the target wind farm; if the present disclosure is applied to the wind farm operation stage, the target wind turbine generator set and the target wind farm have been built and put into use, and the target wind farm is a wind farm with a target wind turbine generator set.
[0050] The terrain information may specifically include the terrain data and roughness of the target wind farm. The terrain data is used to describe the terrain of the target wind farm, such as whether it is a plain, mountainous or hilly. As an example, it can be achieved by describing the ground height at various locations in the target wind farm. The roughness is also called ground roughness, which characterizes the interaction between the surface and the atmosphere and reflects the effect of the surface on reducing wind speed. It can be input into the simulation model as a parameter in the subsequent simulation process.
[0051] The measured wind parameters are the wind parameters actually detected, which can be wind tower data or radar data.
[0052] In step S102, based on the terrain information, the wind parameters of the target wind farm are simulated to obtain simulated wind parameters of the wind farm.
[0053] As an example, this step can be implemented using the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method, including the determination of the simulation area, the setting of boundary conditions, the generation of grids, and the selection of turbulence models. In determining the simulation area, the length and width of the simulation area can be determined according to the area occupied by the target wind farm, and the height of the simulation area can be determined according to the height of the mountain in the target wind farm. For example, the point with a set height above the highest point of the mountain is used as the highest point of the simulation area, and the distance from the lowest point to the highest point of the target wind farm is the height of the simulation area. The boundary condition setting mainly involves the inlet boundary and the ground boundary. The inlet condition can be a three-layer wind profile inlet boundary condition that considers the thermal stability of the atmosphere. The setting of other boundary conditions refers to traditional CFD simulation. In terms of grid generation, the number of grids can be appropriately increased to meet the requirements of refined simulation. The specific increase can be appropriately adjusted according to the simulation results in combination with experience, and the present disclosure is not limited. In the selection of turbulence models, the atmospheric thermal stability information can be combined to select a model that takes the atmospheric thermal stability into consideration, such as the RANS (Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes) model. Appropriate models can be selected according to different terrains. For example, for mountainous areas, two-equation models can be selected, such as the k-ε model and the SST (Shear Stress Transfer) k-ω model. For plains and hills, DES (Detached-Eddy Simulation) and LES (Large Eddy Simulation) models can be selected.
[0054] In step S103, predicted wind parameters of multiple points within the impeller surface of the target wind turbine generator set are determined according to the simulated wind parameters and the measured wind parameters of the wind farm, and the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface are obtained.
[0055] In fact, in traditional wind turbine design, engineers construct the wind conditions experienced by the wind turbine through the IEC standard wind model based on the wind parameter input at the hub center, and then use the BEM theory (Blade-element Theory) method to calculate the load of the wind turbine. However, with the advancement of the large-scale trend of the unit, the imbalance of wind parameters on the entire impeller surface has gradually become prominent, especially in complex mountainous terrain. People have analyzed through radar measurement methods and CFD simulation methods that the complexity of the wind conditions actually suffered by the impeller surface far exceeds the complexity of the wind conditions constructed by traditional methods, which leads to great disadvantages in using only the hub center wind parameter as the input of load simulation. The present disclosure further refines the predicted wind parameters of multiple points within the impeller surface of the target wind turbine generator set by combining the simulated wind parameters of the wind farm and the measured wind parameters, and can predict the actual wind parameters borne by the unit on the entire impeller surface, so as to calculate a more accurate unit simulation load in the subsequent step S104, which can fully reduce the simulation deviation caused by the imbalance of the wind parameters on the impeller surface. It should be understood that, since the inlet boundary condition adopted when the simulation processing is performed in step S102 to determine the simulated wind parameters of the wind farm is a single wind condition, including a single inlet wind speed and wind direction, the simulated wind parameters on the impeller surface calculated from the simulated wind parameters of the wind farm also correspond to the single wind condition of the inlet boundary. In step S103, by introducing the measured wind parameters, the simulated wind parameters on the impeller surface under the single wind condition can be adjusted, thereby inferring the predicted wind parameters on the impeller surface that are consistent with the measured wind parameters as the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface.
[0056] In step S104, based on the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface, the load of the target wind turbine generator set is simulated to obtain a simulated load of the set.
[0057] It should be understood that regarding the application of unit simulation loads, if the present disclosure is applied to the wind turbine design stage, the structural dimensions of the target wind turbine generator set can be designed based on the obtained unit simulation loads to ensure the safety performance simulation in the wind turbine design stage, thereby reducing quality failure problems in the wind turbine operation stage; if the present disclosure is applied to the wind farm operation stage, the life of the target wind turbine generator set or certain components in the set can be predicted based on the unit simulation load, and maintenance or replacement plans can be made in a timely manner, thereby reducing the risk of safety accidents.
[0058] The following is a further introduction to the above steps.
[0059] In some embodiments, considering that the phenomenon of unbalanced wind parameters on the impeller surface is more likely to occur under complex terrain, the present disclosure adopts different schemes to determine the predicted wind parameters on the impeller surface for different terrains, so as to realize scene-by-scene simulation.
[0060] Specifically, optionally, step S102 includes: determining the complexity index of the target wind farm based on the terrain information, wherein the complexity index is used to represent the complexity of the terrain of the target wind farm; when the complexity index is greater than the complexity threshold, simulating the wind parameters of multiple points in the target wind farm based on the terrain information to obtain the simulated wind parameters of the wind farm. By configuring the complexity index and the complexity threshold, the complexity of the terrain of the target wind farm can be quantitatively represented, and when the complexity index is greater than the complexity threshold, the terrain of the target wind farm is considered to be complex. At this time, the aforementioned solution of first calculating the simulated wind parameters of the wind farm and then refining them to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface can meet the simulation needs of complex terrain and fully reduce the simulation deviation caused by the imbalance of the wind parameters on the impeller surface under complex terrain.
[0061] It should be understood that when the complexity index is less than or equal to the complexity threshold, the terrain of the target wind farm can be considered to be relatively simple and flat. At this time, the traditional method is used to construct the wind conditions experienced by the wind turbine based on the wind parameters at the hub center. This can provide a more suitable load assessment scheme for the target wind turbine generator set, which helps to reduce the computational load and improve computational efficiency.
[0062] Optionally, the complexity threshold is a statistical value of the complexity index of a reference wind farm, and the reference wind farm is a wind farm that has experienced a failure. The wind conditions are complex under complex terrain, and the simulation deviation is correspondingly large, making it more likely for failures to occur. By counting the complexity index of the reference wind farm that has experienced a failure, the obtained complexity threshold can more reliably distinguish between complex terrain and simple terrain, which helps to improve the recognition sensitivity of complex terrain. As an example, when determining the complexity threshold, the complexity index of all reference wind farms obtained can be directly counted, and the statistical values are, for example, the mean, median, mode, and quantile of a predetermined probability (for example, the 70% lower quantile); the obtained reference wind farms can also be screened for the second time according to the number and / or severity of the failures, and then the complexity index of the reference wind farms remaining after the second screening can be counted. The statistical values used are the same as those used for direct statistics, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0063] In some embodiments, optionally, step S102 includes: determining a plurality of preset sectors, each of which represents a wind direction; for each of the plurality of preset sectors, simulating the wind parameters of the target wind farm based on the terrain information to obtain the wind farm simulation wind parameters of each preset sector. Since the wind direction in the target wind farm varies greatly under complex terrain, the wind parameters on the entire impeller surface of the target wind turbine generator set under different wind directions also vary greatly. By dividing the wind direction of the target wind farm into a plurality of preset sectors, such as 16 sectors, and simulating them separately, the influence of wind from different wind directions can be simulated, thereby achieving refined simulation of multiple sectors and improving simulation accuracy.
[0064] Optionally, in the above-mentioned embodiment of multi-sector refined simulation, step S103 includes: for each preset sector in a plurality of preset sectors, taking the direction facing the incoming wind as the impeller surface orientation of the target wind turbine in the preset sector; determining the predicted wind parameters of multiple points of the impeller surface of the target wind turbine in each preset sector according to the wind farm simulation wind parameters and the measured wind parameters of each preset sector, and obtaining the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of each preset sector. Considering that during the actual operation of the wind farm, the yaw direction of the wind turbine will be adjusted according to the incoming wind direction so that the impeller surface faces the incoming wind, by determining the corresponding impeller surface orientation for each preset sector, a more accurate impeller surface position can be determined, which helps to obtain more accurate predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface.
[0065] Optionally, in the above-mentioned embodiment of multi-sector refined simulation, step S104 includes: based on the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of each preset sector, simulating the load of the target wind turbine generator set in each preset sector to obtain the simulated load of each preset sector; merging the simulated loads of multiple preset sectors to obtain the simulated load of the unit. On the basis of obtaining the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of each preset sector, by continuing to simulate the load corresponding to each preset sector, a more accurate simulated load can be obtained based on the more accurate predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface, and after merging, the simulated load of the unit of the entire target wind turbine generator set can be obtained, which helps to fully reduce the simulation deviation. As an example, the statistical value of the simulated load of multiple preset sectors can be calculated as the simulated load of the unit, and the statistical value is, for example, an average value. For example, the frequency of wind directions corresponding to different preset sectors in the historical wind parameters of the target wind farm can be counted, and the frequency is used as the weight of the corresponding preset sector to calculate the weighted average value of the simulated loads of multiple preset sectors. The present disclosure does not limit this.
[0066] Further optionally, based on the multi-sector refined simulation, the wind speed may be divided into a plurality of preset wind speed segments to achieve multi-wind speed segment simulation.
[0067] Specifically, optionally, the step of determining the predicted wind parameters of multiple points on the impeller surface of each preset sector of the target wind turbine generator set according to the wind farm simulation wind parameters and the measured wind parameters of each preset sector in step S103 to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of each preset sector includes: performing statistical processing on the measured wind parameters according to multiple preset sectors and multiple preset wind speed segments to obtain statistical wind parameters under multiple preset intervals, wherein each of the multiple preset intervals corresponds to a preset sector and a preset wind speed segment, and taking the case where there are 16 preset sectors and 34 preset wind speed segments as an example, 16×34=544 preset intervals can be obtained; for each of the multiple preset intervals, determining the predicted wind parameters of multiple points on the impeller surface of the target wind turbine generator set in the preset sector corresponding to the preset interval according to the wind farm simulation wind parameters of the preset sector corresponding to the preset interval and the statistical wind parameters under the preset interval to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of the preset interval. Since different preset wind speed sections will not affect the wind farm simulation parameters under the same preset sector, a set of wind farm simulation wind parameters can be shared. By combining the statistical wind parameters under the preset interval, that is, the statistical wind parameters of different preset wind speed sections in the corresponding preset sector, the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface corresponding to the preset interval are determined, which can realize the reliable calculation of the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface for different preset intervals. It should be understood that the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of each preset interval are the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of each preset sector under each preset wind speed section. It should be understood that the statistical wind parameters are the statistical values of the measured values of each wind parameter within the preset interval.
[0068] Optionally, the step of simulating the load of the target wind turbine generator set in each preset sector based on the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of each preset sector in step S104 to obtain the simulated load of each preset sector includes: for each preset interval in a plurality of preset intervals, determining the interval simulated load of the target wind turbine generator set in the preset interval according to the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface of the preset interval. By continuing to simulate the corresponding load on the basis of obtaining relatively accurate predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface in each preset interval (i.e., each preset sector in each preset wind speed segment), relatively accurate interval simulated loads can be obtained based on relatively accurate predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface in different preset intervals, which helps to fully reduce the simulation deviation.
[0069] Optionally, the step of merging the simulated loads of multiple preset sectors in step S104 to obtain the simulated load of the unit includes: merging the interval simulated loads of multiple preset intervals corresponding to the same preset wind speed segment, and obtaining the simulated load corresponding to each preset wind speed segment in the multiple preset wind speed segments as the simulated load of the unit. Since the load of the unit is often significantly different under different wind speeds, and different wind directions have little effect on the load of the unit, by merging the interval simulated loads of multiple preset intervals corresponding to the same preset wind speed segment, the simulated loads corresponding to different preset wind speed segments can be obtained, and the refined distinction of the simulated load of the unit can be achieved, which helps to improve the accuracy of the simulated load of the unit, thereby reducing the simulation deviation. As an example, refer to the previous text. When merging the interval simulated loads of multiple preset intervals corresponding to the same preset wind speed segment, the statistical values of the interval simulated loads of multiple preset intervals corresponding to the same preset wind speed segment can be calculated, which will not be repeated here.
[0070] Optionally, regarding the specific determination scheme of the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface, the step of determining the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface for each preset interval in step S103 includes: for each preset sector in a plurality of preset sectors, constructing a impeller surface grid of the target wind turbine generator set in the preset sector according to the impeller surface orientation of the target wind turbine generator set in the preset sector; for each preset sector in a plurality of preset sectors, taking each grid point in the impeller surface grid of the target wind turbine generator set in the preset sector as a plurality of points within the impeller surface, and determining each grid point in the impeller surface grid and the simulated wind parameters at the predetermined observation points by using the interpolation method based on the wind farm simulation wind parameters of the preset sector; for each preset interval in a plurality of preset intervals, determining the predicted wind parameters of each grid point in the impeller surface grid of the preset sector corresponding to the preset interval of the target wind turbine generator set according to the simulated wind parameters at the predetermined observation points and the statistical wind parameters under the preset interval, so as to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface for the preset interval. As mentioned above, each preset sector can determine the corresponding impeller surface orientation, and under the same preset sector, different preset wind speed sections can share a set of wind farm simulation wind parameters. Based on this, by first constructing an impeller surface grid for each preset sector, and combining the wind farm simulation wind parameters to determine the simulation wind parameters at each grid point in the impeller surface grid and the predetermined observation point, and finally combining the corresponding statistical wind parameters to determine the predicted wind parameters at each grid point, the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface can be reliably determined.
[0071] Optionally, each grid point of the impeller surface grid includes a hub center point and a non-hub center point. For each preset interval in the plurality of preset intervals described above, according to each grid point in the impeller surface grid of the preset sector corresponding to the preset interval of the target wind turbine generator set and the simulated wind parameters at the predetermined observation point, as well as the statistical wind parameters under the preset interval, the predicted wind parameters of each grid point in the impeller surface grid of the preset sector corresponding to the preset interval of the target wind turbine generator set are determined. The step of obtaining the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface in the preset interval includes: for each preset interval in the plurality of preset intervals, the predicted wind parameters of the target wind turbine generator set in the preset area are obtained. For each grid point in the impeller surface grid of the preset sector corresponding to the preset interval, according to the simulated wind parameters and reference wind parameters of the reference point corresponding to the grid point, the simulated wind parameters of the grid point are corrected to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the grid point; the predicted wind parameters of each grid point in the impeller surface grid of the preset sector corresponding to the preset interval of the target wind turbine generator set are used as the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface in the preset interval; wherein, the reference point corresponding to the hub center point is the predetermined observation point, the reference point corresponding to the non-hub center point is the hub center point, the reference wind parameters of the predetermined observation point are the statistical wind parameters under the preset interval, and the reference wind parameters of the hub center point are the predicted wind parameters of the hub center point. Referring to the previous description, it can be seen that the simulated wind parameters of the wind farm correspond to a single wind condition, so the simulated wind parameters on the impeller surface obtained thereby also correspond to the single wind condition. It is necessary to adjust the simulated wind parameters in combination with the measured wind parameters to obtain accurate predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface. By first referring to the statistical wind parameters of the predetermined observation points to determine the predicted wind parameters of the hub center point when adjusting the simulated wind parameters in combination with the measured wind parameters, and then referring to the predicted wind parameters of the hub center point to determine the predicted wind parameters of other grid points, the hub center point that has a closer relationship with other grid points can be used as the reference point for other grid points, rather than uniformly using the predetermined observation points as the reference points, which helps to improve the accuracy of the predicted wind parameters of other grid points.
[0072] Optionally, the wind parameters include wind speed, turbulence intensity and wind direction, and the simulated wind parameters of the grid point are corrected according to the simulated wind parameters and reference wind parameters of the reference point corresponding to the grid point in the previous paragraph to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the grid point, including: based on the respective correction relationships of different wind parameters, the simulated wind parameters of the grid point are corrected according to the simulated wind parameters and reference wind parameters of the reference point corresponding to the grid point to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the grid point, wherein the correction relationship of wind speed is that the ratio of the predicted wind speed of the grid point to the simulated wind speed is equal to the ratio of the reference wind speed of the reference point corresponding to the grid point to the simulated wind speed; turbulence intensity and wind direction, and the simulated wind parameters of the grid point are corrected according to the simulated wind parameters and reference wind parameters of the reference point corresponding to the grid point to obtain the predicted wind parameters of the grid point; The correction relationship of flow intensity is that the ratio of the predicted turbulence difference to the simulated turbulence difference is equal to the ratio of the simulated wind speed of the grid point to the simulated wind speed of the reference point corresponding to the grid point, where the predicted turbulence difference is the difference between the predicted turbulence intensity of the grid point and the reference turbulence intensity of the reference point corresponding to the grid point, and the simulated turbulence difference is the difference between the simulated turbulence intensity of the grid point and the simulated turbulence intensity of the reference point corresponding to the grid point; the correction relationship of wind direction is that the difference between the predicted wind direction and the simulated wind direction of the grid point is equal to the difference between the reference wind direction and the simulated wind direction of the reference point corresponding to the grid point. By configuring different correction relationships according to the physical characteristics of wind speed, turbulence intensity and wind direction, and correcting the simulated wind parameters of each grid point based on the corresponding correction relationships, it is possible to ensure that accurate predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface are obtained.
[0073] Next, combine Figures 2 to 5 A specific embodiment of the present disclosure is introduced.
[0074] This specific embodiment proposes a load simulation method based on CFD impeller surface wind parameters. This method is based on the CFD simulation wind parameter input method, and takes the influence of complex terrain on wind parameter imbalance into account in the load simulation, which can reduce the simulation deviation of the load. The method mainly includes three parts: terrain complexity identification, CFD simulation and impeller surface wind parameter extraction, and load simulation. First, the complexity of the terrain suitable for the designed target wind turbine generator set or the terrain where the target wind turbine generator set in operation is located is identified. For simple terrain with low complexity, the traditional single-point measured wind parameters are used as the input of the load simulation to evaluate the safety performance of the unit. For terrain with high complexity, the corrected distribution of the entire impeller surface wind parameters is obtained through CFD simulation and impeller surface wind parameter extraction, and then used as the input of the load simulation to evaluate the fatigue load and limit load of the unit.
[0075] Reference Figure 2 , the specific embodiment comprises the following steps:
[0076] a) During the unit design and development stage, based on the applicable area of the unit, select a representative regional terrain, or select a built wind farm in the area as the target wind farm, and select a specific unit point as the unit site of the target wind turbine generator unit, and read the terrain information of the target wind farm.
[0077] b) Identify the terrain complexity of the target wind farm. Specifically, the complexity index can be constructed based on the number of mountains, slope, maximum altitude difference, etc. in the target wind farm. For example, the proportion of mountains with a maximum altitude difference exceeding a threshold and the proportion of mountains with a slope exceeding a threshold in the target wind farm can be calculated, and the complexity index can be obtained based on these two proportions by looking up a table.
[0078] c) judging whether the complexity index exceeds a complexity threshold, wherein the complexity threshold is set by statistically processing the complexity indexes of operating wind farms that have experienced fault problems in the terrain database.
[0079] d) If the complexity index of the target wind farm exceeds the complexity threshold, it is judged as complex terrain, and the load simulation process based on the CFD impeller surface wind parameter is started to read the roughness information of the target wind farm, the location information of the target wind turbine generator set, and the designed model information. The model information mainly includes the tower height and the hub diameter.
[0080] e) Determine the wind parameters for wind farm simulation. Set the target wind farm calculation area, generate the grid, and set the boundary conditions. Use the RANS model to perform CFD simulation on 16 preset sectors until the simulation converges. The inlet boundary condition of the target wind farm is the three-layer wind profile inlet boundary condition considering the atmospheric stability. Other boundary conditions are set with reference to the traditional CFD simulation of the wind farm. The RANS models used are the k-ε model and the SST k-ω model considering the atmospheric stability, in order to consider the impact of meteorological laws on the wind farm and ensure the accuracy and reliability of the simulation.
[0081] f) In each preset sector, at the site of the target wind turbine generator set, an N×N impeller surface grid is constructed based on the tower height, hub diameter, and impeller surface orientation of the target wind turbine generator set, such as Figure 3 As shown. Through interpolation methods, such as the inverse distance square interpolation method, the wind farm simulation wind parameters are interpolated to the impeller surface grid, including the average wind speed, turbulence intensity, inflow angle, and wind direction of each grid node. Finally, the simulation wind parameters of the impeller surface grid points and predetermined observation points of the target wind turbine generator set in 16 preset sectors are obtained. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The figure shows the distribution of simulated wind speed and simulated turbulence intensity on the impeller surface. It can be seen that there is an unbalanced distribution.
[0082] g) Read radar data or wind tower data as the measured wind parameters of the predetermined observation point, including wind speed, turbulence intensity, and wind direction. The predetermined observation point is the target point detected by the radar data or the location of the wind tower. Specifically, when the radar data or wind tower data contains wind parameter data of multiple different heights, the wind parameter data of the hub center height can be selected, and the wind parameter data of other height layers can also be selected. The measured wind parameters are processed according to sectors (16 preset sectors) and wind speed sections (cut-in wind speed 3m / s, cut-out wind speed 20m / s, wind speed interval of 0.5m / s, and 34 preset wind speed sections are obtained) to obtain the wind speed average value, turbulence intensity average value, wind direction average value and frequency under different preset sectors and different preset wind speed sections. Since the inflow angle cannot be directly measured, the simulation result of the inflow angle is used later. There are 16 (preset number of sectors) × 34 (preset number of wind speed sections) = 544 preset intervals here.
[0083] h) For each preset interval, the wind speed, turbulence intensity and wind direction at the hub center height of the target wind turbine generator set are corrected by the measured wind parameters at the predetermined observation point. The correction formulas for wind speed and turbulence intensity are as follows:
[0084]
[0085]
[0086] Where v h_p_real 、v h_mast_real are the predicted wind speed at the hub center of the target wind turbine and the measured wind speed at the predetermined observation point; h_p_CFD 、v h_mast_CFD They are the simulated wind speed at the hub center and the predetermined observation point. p_real ,ti mast_real are the predicted turbulence intensity at the hub center and the measured turbulence intensity at the predetermined observation point. p_CFD ,ti mast_CFD They are the simulated turbulence intensity at the hub center and the predetermined observation point. Then, for each preset interval, based on the predicted wind parameters at the hub center, the predicted wind parameters at other grid points on the entire impeller surface are obtained by referring to the above formula. Finally, the predicted wind parameters and frequency distribution of each grid point on the impeller surface in each preset interval are obtained.
[0087] i) Decompose the simulated wind speed, simulated turbulence intensity, and simulated wind direction of each preset sector and each preset wind speed segment, that is, each preset interval, into the three directions of the coordinate system x, y, and z to obtain the components of each predicted wind parameter in the three directions. For a preset interval, the predicted wind parameters of all grid points on the entire impeller surface are obtained as average values, which can be input into the wind model in the IEC standard to generate the time series wind parameters at different times on the entire impeller surface. The 600s time series wind parameters are generally used for load simulation. This method can be used to generate the 600s time series wind parameters of the impeller surface corresponding to each preset interval.
[0088] j) Input the 600s time-series wind parameters of the impeller surface corresponding to each preset interval into the load simulation model. In c), if the complexity index does not exceed the complexity threshold, the influence of the unbalanced wind parameters of the impeller surface caused by the terrain is ignored, and the unit load is calculated by inputting the measured wind parameters at the hub center height. The input wind parameters mainly include the average wind speed at the hub center, turbulence intensity, wind shear, etc. Thereby generating the 600s time-series wind parameters of the entire impeller surface. The present disclosure targets complex terrains, and based on the CFD impeller surface simulation wind parameters and the measured wind parameters at predetermined observation points, the input is the time-series wind parameters of the entire impeller surface generated by the predicted wind parameter constraints of the impeller surface at each grid point, while the traditional method inputs the time-series wind parameters of the entire impeller surface generated by the single-point wind parameters at the hub center combined with the wind shear constraints.
[0089] k) Use the constructed time series wind parameters to simulate loads under various working conditions, and finally solve the fatigue load and limit load of the target wind turbine. For example, for the fatigue load of the unit, the NTM model (Normal Turbulence Model) in the IEC standard is used to obtain the load simulation results of each preset interval, and then according to the frequency distribution of each preset interval, the fatigue load of the entire unit under different preset wind speed sections is finally obtained. The limit load is the maximum value of the load simulation result.
[0090] In addition, regarding the execution subject, in this specific embodiment, the load simulation method is executed by a simulation system independent of the wind farm control system. The simulation system first needs to obtain the terrain information of the target wind farm and the measured wind parameters of the predetermined observation point. Among them, the terrain information can be derived from the actual measurement data of the target wind farm, and the actual measurement data is often stored in a special memory, that is, the actual measurement data of the target wind farm can be obtained from the memory; if there is no actual measurement data, STRM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission, Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) data can be used. The data is public data and can be obtained from relevant websites, such as EarthExplorer. The measured wind parameters can be radar data or wind tower data, which can be obtained from the corresponding data storage. After completing the data acquisition, the simulation system can perform a series of simulation processing and finally obtain the unit simulation load. Thereafter, the equipment used to perform the design calculation of the wind turbine generator set in the development stage, or the equipment used to perform the remaining life calculation of the wind turbine generator set in the operation stage, such as a workstation, can obtain the unit simulation load from the simulation system to perform the corresponding calculation.

When the set of computer executable instructions is executed by the at least one processor 702, a load simulation method for a wind turbine generator set according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is executed.
[0112] As an example, the computer device 700 may be a PC, a tablet device, a personal digital assistant, a smart phone, or other device capable of executing the above-mentioned instruction set. Here, the computer device 700 is not necessarily a single electronic device, but may also be any device or circuit collection capable of executing the above-mentioned instructions (or instruction sets) individually or in combination. The computer device 700 may also be part of an integrated control system or a system manager, or may be configured as a portable electronic device interconnected with a local or remote (e.g., via wireless transmission) interface.

[0117] The present disclosure provides a load simulation method, device and storage medium for a wind turbine generator set. By combining the simulated wind parameters of the wind farm obtained by simulation and the measured wind parameters, the simulated wind parameters are further refined to determine the predicted wind parameters of multiple points within the impeller surface of the target wind turbine generator set. The actual wind parameters borne by the unit on the entire impeller surface can be predicted, and then a more accurate simulated load of the unit can be calculated, which can fully reduce the simulation measurement deviation caused by the imbalance of the wind parameters on the impeller surface.
[0118] In addition, by configuring the complexity index and complexity threshold, the terrain complexity of the target wind farm can be quantitatively expressed, and when the complexity index is greater than the complexity threshold, the terrain of the target wind farm is considered to be complex. At this time, the aforementioned solution of first calculating the wind farm simulation wind parameters and then refining the predicted wind parameters of the impeller surface can meet the simulation needs of complex terrain and fully reduce the simulation deviation caused by the imbalance of the wind parameters on the impeller surface under complex terrain.
