Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wind power generation, and in particular to a reverse lift-drag combined vertical axis wind turbine based on differential transmission and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a clean, efficient and safe form of energy, wind energy has attracted worldwide attention and is considered to be one of the most promising new energy sources in the future. According to the different rotating axes, wind turbines are mainly divided into two categories: horizontal axis wind turbines and vertical axis wind turbines. However, the horizontal axis wind turbine has a large rotor and a high center, which requires high overall structural strength and foundation bearing capacity. In addition, the overall structure is relatively complex and the cost is high. Therefore, researchers are committed to the research of vertical axis wind turbines. Vertical axis wind turbines can be divided into lift type vertical axis wind turbines and resistance type vertical axis wind turbines according to different working principles. Vertical axis wind turbines have the advantages of simple structure, easy installation and maintenance, and can receive wind from multiple directions without the need for yaw devices. However, vertical axis wind turbines have the disadvantages of low wind energy utilization efficiency, poor self-starting performance, and large transmission shaft load, which will have an adverse effect on the transmission system of the vertical axis wind turbine, accelerate the fatigue of the transmission shaft system, and even cause the transmission shaft to break and the overall structure to overturn, which directly leads to reduced economic benefits and serious waste of resources.

[0003] Domestic and foreign scholars have improved the power generation efficiency of vertical axis wind turbines by optimizing the structure of vertical axis wind turbines. For example, CN118757321A discloses a floating vertical axis wind turbine generator set and system. Although the frontal area of ​​the wind is increased by nesting lift blades and resistance blades, the power generation efficiency can be improved to a certain extent. However, the lift blades and resistance blades have similar structures, which cannot ensure that the lift blades and resistance blades maintain a certain phase difference when rotating, and cannot substantially improve the power generation efficiency.

[0004] Similarly, CN113217272A discloses a lift-drag composite vertical axis wind turbine for a wind-solar integrated power generation system. The combination of lift and drag improves the self-starting performance and enables opening and closing of different blades at different wind speeds. However, the problem of excessive load on the transmission shaft is not solved, and there are safety hazards, which is not conducive to subsequent maintenance and repair, and needs further optimization and improvement.

[0005] In addition, in the prior art, due to the structural form of the vertical axis wind turbine, it is easy to cause problems such as stall, and under extreme working conditions it is very easy to cause the unit to overturn or collapse, seriously threatening the safety of life and property. At present, a simpler and more reliable transmission structure has not been developed to achieve forward and reverse rotation, differential and other problems.

[0006] In order to solve these problems, it is urgent to provide a reverse lift-drag combined vertical axis wind turbine and control method based on differential transmission. The self-starting performance of the vertical axis wind turbine is improved by combining lift and drag in a nested form. The forward and reverse differential rotation is achieved by the coordinated use of the driving gear and the driven gear. On the one hand, the load on the transmission shaft is reduced, and on the other hand, the utilization efficiency of turbulent wind is increased, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of the vertical axis wind turbine. Under extreme working conditions, the lift-type blades and the drag-type blades can be closed as a whole through the linkage of related systems, which solves the possibility of further damage to the overall structure under extreme working conditions. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a reverse lift-drag combined vertical axis wind turbine and a control method based on differential transmission, utilizing the good self-starting performance of the resistance type wind turbine and the high power generation capacity of the lift type wind turbine, and using a positive and reverse rotation combined structure to fully utilize the wind from different directions of turbulent wind to further improve the overall power generation efficiency; at the same time, with the reverse rotation structure, the torques in different directions will offset a part, so that the dynamic response of the overall wind turbine structure tends to be stable, and the loads on the rotor system and the transmission system will also be partially offset. In addition, under extreme working conditions, the lift type blades and the resistance type blades can be closed to reduce the windward area and protect the overall structure of the wind turbine to the greatest extent. The design of the present invention is relatively simple, with a high degree of modular design, and it is easy to realize mass production, which is beneficial to later maintenance and repair, and reduces the later use cost.

[0029] The structural form of the vertical axis wind turbine in the prior art is prone to problems such as stall, and can easily cause the unit to overturn or collapse under extreme conditions, seriously threatening the safety of life and property. At present, a simpler and more reliable transmission structure has not been developed to achieve positive and reverse rotation, differential speed and other problems.

[0030] Based on this, the embodiments of this specification propose a vertical axis wind turbine solution: the solution adopts a composite rotor and a differential transmission system to achieve the effect of convenient storage. Example

[0031] This embodiment provides a reverse lift-drag combined vertical axis wind turbine based on differential transmission. Figure 1It is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of the wind turbine, which includes a rotor system 1, a blade system 2, a support system, a transmission system 4 and a control system; the rotor system 1 includes an outer rotor shaft and an inner rotor shaft, the outer rotor shaft includes an upper outer shaft rotor 11 and a lower outer shaft rotor 13, the inner rotor shaft includes a middle inner shaft rotor 12, the upper outer shaft rotor 11 and the lower outer shaft rotor 13 rotate around the outer rotating shaft, and the middle inner shaft rotor 12 rotates in the opposite direction around the inner rotating shaft; a transmission system 4 is arranged between the upper outer shaft rotor 11 and the middle inner shaft rotor 12, and between the lower outer shaft rotor 13 and the middle inner shaft rotor 12; the blade system 2 is divided into a resistance type blade 21 and a lift type blade 22, and the blade system 2 is connected to the rotor system 1 through the support system, so that the rotor system 1 rotates around the support system to achieve the effect of power generation.

[0032] In this solution, the torque generated by the reverse rotation of the outer rotor shaft and the inner rotor shaft offsets each other, significantly reducing the load on the rotor system 1 and the transmission system 4, thereby reducing the stress burden of the transmission system 4, significantly extending the life of the equipment, and making the wind turbine run more smoothly, reducing the risk of failure caused by mechanical fatigue; the outer rotor shaft and the inner rotor shaft rotate in opposite directions, which can simultaneously utilize turbulent winds in different directions in the wind field, optimize wind energy conversion capabilities, and maintain high power generation efficiency in complex wind conditions; the lift-type blades 22 drive the outer rotor shaft to provide high-efficiency power output; the resistance-type blades 21 drive the inner rotor shaft to enhance the self-starting ability of the wind turbine. The two blades work together in forward and reverse rotation to ensure that the wind turbine can start smoothly even under low wind speed conditions.

At this time, the power generation shaft 35 is still driven by the rotation and revolution of the longitudinal driven double-toothed gear 424 to generate electricity; in this solution, by converting the kinetic energy generated by the inner rotor shaft and the outer rotor shaft in different directions into kinetic energy in the same direction and on the same axis, the kinetic energy collected by the blade system 2 can be converted to the maximum extent, and the power generation efficiency is greatly improved.

When encountering extreme working conditions, the lateral support 321 is retracted to align with the annular support 313 of the inner rotating bracket 31, the lift-type blade 22 is tangent to the annular support 313 of the inner rotating bracket 31, and the inner blade 21 rotates around the inner blade rotation shaft 312, and the angle of the inner blade 21 is adjusted to be tangent to the annular support 313; Figure 8 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the shutdown structure of a reverse lift-drag combined vertical axis wind turbine based on differential transmission. At this time, the wind turbine is closed to form a whole, completing the shutdown under extreme working conditions and protecting the safety of the overall structure of the wind turbine.

[0043] In this solution, the wind turbine is automatically shut down under extreme working conditions through the control system. After the lift blades 22 and the resistance blades 21 are tangent to the annular support 313, the windward angle of the wind turbine is reduced to the minimum or even zero, which greatly reduces the impact of wind pressure on the wind turbine structure and effectively avoids damage to key components such as blades and rotors due to strong winds or storms. After the lift blades 22 and the resistance blades 21 are retracted, they form a closed structure with the annular support 313, which can evenly distribute the external wind load to the blade system 2 and the support system, reduce single-point force, reduce local stress of wind turbine components, and prevent response. The closed structure composed of the lift blades 22, the resistance blades 21 and the annular support 313 eliminates the unbalanced torque under the action of strong winds, avoids the vibration and swaying of the support system, and ensures that the wind turbine remains stable in extreme environments without overturning or collapsing; and blocks the overload input of the transmission system 4 by strong winds, prevents key components such as gears and bearings from being damaged due to overload, extends the life of the transmission system 4, and reduces the frequency of maintenance; the design of the closed structure is not only suitable for working conditions such as strong winds or typhoons, but also can protect key components inside the wind turbine in special environments such as sandstorms, ice and snow.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, a photovoltaic panel can be arranged on the top of the wind turbine baffle 34, and the wiring of the photovoltaic panel extends from the inside of the rotating shaft to the energy storage battery of the base support 33; preferably, the power generation shaft 35 of the vertical axis wind turbine is hollow, and the wiring of the rotor system 1 and the photovoltaic panel share the hollow part of the power generation shaft 35 for wiring.

[0045] In addition, under the inventive spirit of the present invention, the specific embodiment of the reverse high-efficiency lift-drag combined vertical axis wind turbine based on differential transmission of the present invention can also add new variants on the basis of the above embodiments, for example: the lift-type blade 22 may not be provided with a fixing device 322, but is directly connected to the lateral support 321 by bolts. The other components and the connection methods between the components are the same as the embodiments described above in the present invention, and will not be repeated here due to space reasons. However, it should be understood that these components and the connection methods between the components can be introduced into the variant as equivalent embodiments. Example

[0046] This embodiment provides a control method for a reverse high-efficiency lift-drag combined vertical axis wind turbine based on differential transmission of Embodiment 1, in which information such as wind speed and wind direction change is captured by a wind speed sensor on top of the wind turbine baffle 34, and the captured signal is transmitted to a processor. The processor further processes the signal and inputs it into a controller, and the controller changes the rotation angle of the resistance-type blade 21 so that its windward area is always kept at the maximum, thereby ensuring that the power generation efficiency is maintained at the maximum value; the controller simultaneously changes the angle of attack of the lift-type blade 22 so that it obtains the maximum force and the fastest rotation speed.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, when the wind speed sensor captures the signal of extreme turbulent wind, it transmits the signal to the processor. The processor further processes the signal of extreme turbulent wind and inputs it into the controller. The controller then changes the rotation angle of the lift-type blade 22 so that it is tangent to the edge of the annular support 313, the lateral support 321 shrinks to be flush with the edge of the annular support 313, the resistance-type blade 21 rotates around the inner blade shaft 312 to be tangent to the annular support 313, the wind turbine is completely closed, and the resistance-type blade 21 is closed to a zero windward angle, thereby protecting the overall safety of the structure.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, the control method comprises the following steps: S1. Data collection and processing: The wind speed sensor captures the current wind speed and wind direction information in real time and transmits the data to the processor; the processor analyzes the wind speed signal in combination with the pre-input climate model to determine the optimal windward angle of the blades.

[0049] S2. Blade adjustment in normal operation: The processor calculates the appropriate windward angle according to the wind speed and wind direction, and adjusts the angles of the lift blades 22 and the resistance blades 21 through the controller, so that the lift blades 22 operate at the maximum angle of attack, thereby improving the rotation speed and power generation efficiency; the resistance blades 21 rotate around the inner blade shaft 312 to maximize the windward area, thereby ensuring self-starting performance and providing stable power output.

[0050] S3. Blade closure under extreme conditions: When the wind speed sensor detects that the wind speed exceeds the cut-off wind speed of the wind turbine or extreme turbulence occurs, the processor issues an instruction and the control system adjusts the status of the lift-type blades 22 and the resistance-type blades 21 to protect the structural safety of the wind turbine; the lift-type blades 22 shrink along the lateral support 321 and gradually approach the annular support 313 until they are tangent to the annular support 313 to form a closed structure; the resistance-type blades 21 rotate around the inner blade shaft 312 and are tangent to the edge of the annular support 313; the lateral support 321 is completely retracted, the wind turbine structure is in a closed state, the windward area is reduced to a minimum, and structural damage is effectively avoided.

[0051] S4. Resume operation: After the extreme working condition is relieved, the controller readjusts the lift-type blades 22 and the resistance-type blades 21 to normal operating angles according to the wind speed signal, thereby restoring the power generation function of the wind turbine.
