Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wind power generation, and in particular to a method for recovering and utilizing waste heat of a wind turbine generator set and a system for recovering and utilizing waste heat of a wind turbine generator set. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of wind power technology, the power and scale of wind turbines have gradually increased, but their efficiency issues still face many challenges. During the operation of existing wind turbines, key components such as generators, gearboxes, and converters will generate a lot of heat during work. This heat is mainly dissipated through air cooling or water cooling, and finally dissipated into the cabin and discharged to the outside through natural convection. However, this waste heat treatment method has a significant energy waste problem, especially in areas with high altitudes or cold winters. Some key components also require additional heaters for auxiliary heating, which further increases energy consumption and affects the overall energy utilization efficiency of the system.
[0003] The current heat dissipation scheme has the following main problems: First, the heat dissipation system can only discharge heat into the surrounding environment, and fails to effectively utilize the waste heat, resulting in a large amount of energy loss. Secondly, the temperature inside the cabin continues to rise due to the influence of waste heat. Especially in large-megawatt wind turbines, the high temperature of the cabin may have a negative impact on the stable operation of other components, increasing the failure rate and maintenance cost of the equipment. In addition, in the cold winter environment, since components such as generators and converters need to maintain a certain operating temperature, existing solutions usually use independent heaters for heating, which not only leads to additional energy consumption, but also increases the complexity and operating cost of the system.
[0004] Therefore, the existing wind turbine heat dissipation and waste heat management solutions have the following defects: the waste heat generated cannot be reasonably recovered and reused, resulting in low energy utilization; the heat dissipation method is single and cannot dynamically adapt to environmental changes; at the same time, the adaptability to cold environments is insufficient, and additional energy investment is required to maintain normal operation. To solve these problems, a system that can efficiently recover and reuse the waste heat of wind turbines is urgently needed to improve energy utilization efficiency, reduce energy consumption, reduce system operating costs, and improve the overall equipment operation reliability.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not used to limit the present invention.
[0023] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for recovering waste heat from a wind turbine generator set provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for recovering waste heat from a wind turbine generator set, the method comprising: Step S10: collecting the operating status information of each target working equipment, and performing a current wind turbine operating condition simulation based on the operating status information.
[0024] Specifically, each target working equipment includes: any one or more of power equipment, heating equipment, lighting equipment and energy storage equipment; the simulation of the current wind turbine operating condition based on the operating status information includes: based on each operating status information, on a pre-built digital twin model of the current wind turbine, simulating the current wind turbine operating condition based on the operating status information.
[0025] In the embodiment of the present invention, each target working device includes any one or more of power equipment, heating equipment, lighting equipment and energy storage equipment. The collection of operating status information of these devices is very important because they determine the real-time feedback and evaluation of the overall operating conditions of the wind turbine.
[0026] Furthermore, in order to simulate the current operating conditions of wind turbines, a pre-built digital twin model was used. Digital twin technology is an innovative technology that can reflect and predict the operating status of wind turbines in real time by creating a digital model corresponding to the physical wind turbine. Based on the operating status information of each target working equipment, the digital twin model can simulate the operating conditions of wind turbines with high precision. This simulation can include many aspects, such as the working efficiency of power equipment, the energy consumption of heating equipment, the operating time of lighting equipment, and the storage and release of electric energy of energy storage equipment.
[0027] Furthermore, by simulating the operating status of each target working equipment, the operating efficiency and energy utilization of the equipment can be analyzed in real time, thus providing a reliable basis for waste heat recovery and electrical energy distribution. For example, power equipment will generate more heat when running at high load. Through the simulation of the digital twin model, it can be determined whether this heat can be effectively recovered and used for other equipment, such as heating equipment or energy storage equipment. In addition, for lighting equipment and energy storage equipment, simulation can help predict changes in their energy demand, thereby optimizing the distribution of waste heat electricity.
[0028] Simulations based on the digital twin model can significantly improve the efficiency of waste heat recovery electricity. By accurately simulating and analyzing the operating status of each target device, the system can dynamically adjust the allocation plan of waste heat electricity. For example, when the simulation results show that the heating equipment has a higher demand for waste heat electricity under low temperature conditions, the system can prioritize the allocation of waste heat electricity to the heating equipment to ensure its normal operation and reduce the use of additional heaters. At the same time, the operating condition simulation based on the digital twin can also detect abnormal conditions of the equipment, such as the operating temperature of the power equipment is too high or the power of the energy storage equipment is insufficient, so as to make timely adjustments and avoid failures.
[0029] Step S20: Based on the current operating conditions of the wind turbine generator system, determine the energy demand information of each target working equipment.
[0030] Specifically, based on the current operating conditions of the wind turbine, the energy usage type and the corresponding energy usage of each target working equipment are determined; based on the energy usage type and the corresponding energy usage, electric energy conversion is performed based on the digital twin model of the current wind turbine to obtain the required power of each target working equipment as the energy demand information of each target working equipment.
[0031] Furthermore, based on the energy usage type and the corresponding energy usage, the electric energy conversion is performed based on the digital twin model of the current wind turbine to obtain the required power of each target working equipment, including: taking the conversion loss of the waste heat conversion device of the current wind turbine to convert waste heat into electric energy as the first loss corresponding to each energy type; taking the loss of each target working equipment based on the conversion of electric energy into the working energy of the corresponding energy usage type as the second loss corresponding to each energy type; based on the first loss and the second loss, simulating the required power of each target working equipment in the digital twin model of the current wind turbine to obtain the required power of each target working equipment.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present invention, each target working device includes any one or more of power equipment, heating equipment, lighting equipment and energy storage equipment. The collection of operating status information of these devices is very important because they determine the real-time feedback and evaluation of the overall operating conditions of the wind turbine.
[0033] Specifically, we first need to determine the energy usage type and corresponding energy usage of each target working equipment based on the operating conditions of the wind turbine. For example, power equipment may require mechanical energy, heating equipment requires thermal energy, and lighting equipment and energy storage equipment require electrical energy. Each type of energy usage has its own specific requirements, which determine the normal operation of each device.
[0034] Furthermore, in order to further achieve accurate energy management, based on the energy usage type and the corresponding energy usage, the digital twin model of the wind turbine is used to convert electricity to obtain the required electricity of each target working equipment. The digital twin model is a virtual digital system that can simulate the operating status of the physical wind turbine in real time. By converting electricity in the digital twin model, different types of energy demands can be converted into electricity demands for unified management and deployment. This process can ensure that each target working equipment obtains the required electricity under different operating conditions, thereby achieving the optimal allocation and use of energy.
[0035] In the process of electric energy conversion, many factors need to be considered to ensure the accuracy of the calculation results. Specifically, the conversion loss in the process of converting waste heat into electric energy needs to be considered first. This process converts waste heat into electric energy through a waste heat conversion device, and in this conversion process, a certain amount of loss will inevitably occur, which we call the first loss. The size of the first loss depends on the efficiency of the waste heat conversion device, as well as factors such as the quality and temperature of the waste heat.
[0036] Secondly, it is necessary to consider the losses incurred by each target working device in the process of converting electrical energy into the corresponding energy usage type. Different devices have different conversion efficiencies when using electrical energy. For example, there will be a certain amount of energy loss in the process of heating equipment converting electrical energy into thermal energy, and energy storage equipment will also have a certain amount of energy loss during the charging and discharging process. We call these losses incurred when converting electrical energy into working energy the second loss.
[0037] Based on the first loss and the second loss, the power demand of each target working equipment can be simulated in the digital twin model. Specifically, the digital twin model can accurately simulate and calculate the power demand of each target equipment in combination with the current operating conditions of the wind turbine, the energy usage type of each equipment and the corresponding loss. Through this simulation, the power demand of each target working equipment can be obtained, thereby providing a basis for the allocation of waste heat recovery electric energy.
[0038] Through this process of determining energy demand and converting electricity based on operating conditions, the reasonable allocation of electricity recovered from waste heat of wind turbines can be achieved. First, the use of digital twin models makes the simulation of the operating conditions of wind turbines more accurate and can reflect the changes in energy demand of each device in real time. Secondly, by considering the various loss factors in the process of waste heat conversion and electricity conversion, the actual needs of each device can be better evaluated, thereby optimizing the allocation of electricity. This method not only improves the utilization efficiency of waste heat recovery electricity, but also significantly reduces the energy loss during equipment operation, ultimately improving the overall energy efficiency of wind turbines.
[0039] Based on the solution of the present invention, through the simulation of operating conditions based on the digital twin model, the system can more accurately determine the energy demand of each target working equipment, reducing energy waste caused by unreasonable power distribution. At the same time, the simulation of the required power based on the conversion loss makes the entire waste heat recovery power distribution process more scientific and efficient, able to adapt to different environmental changes, and ensure that each device can obtain the required power under any circumstances. In this way, the system not only reduces the demand for additional electricity, but also improves the efficiency of waste heat reuse, thereby achieving energy conservation and emission reduction and reducing operating costs.
[0040] Preferably, each heat generating component comprises: any one or more of a generator, a gearbox, a converter, a hydraulic system, a transformer, a braking system and an auxiliary cooling device.
[0041] In the embodiments of the present invention, these components will inevitably generate a large amount of heat during the operation of the wind turbine, and if this heat is not utilized, it will cause serious energy waste. Generators, gearboxes and converters are the main sources of heat generation because they involve complex mechanical movement and power conversion in the process of converting wind energy into electrical energy; the hydraulic system generates heat when controlling the angle and position of the fan; the transformer also inevitably generates heat loss during the voltage conversion process; the braking system generates a large amount of friction heat during emergency or routine braking operations; and the auxiliary cooling device, although used to cool other components, will also generate heat during operation. These heat-generating components can reuse the heat generated and convert it into useful electrical energy through a reasonable waste heat recovery system, thereby significantly improving the overall energy utilization efficiency of the wind turbine, reducing energy waste caused by improper heat dissipation, and improving the economic and environmental benefits of the entire system.
[0042] Step S30: simulating a waste heat recovery electric energy distribution scheme based on the waste heat recovery electric energy and the energy demand information of each target working equipment.
[0043] Specifically, based on the goal of minimizing the waste heat recovery power distribution loss, the corresponding objective function is constructed with the waste heat recovery power distribution amount of each target working equipment as a variable, which is expressed as:
[0044] in, The amount of waste heat recovery electric energy allocated to the i-th target working equipment; The energy conversion efficiency of the i-th target working device; is the transmission loss coefficient of the i-th target working device; The weight for allocating the i-th target working equipment is determined; and a waste heat recovery electric energy allocation scheme simulation is performed based on the objective function.
[0045] Furthermore, the objective function satisfies the following constraints:
[0046]
[0047] in, The total amount of electricity recovered from waste heat; The power requirement of the i-th target working device.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present invention, each target working device has a different energy conversion efficiency through two constraints, which indicates the efficiency of the device itself in the process of converting waste heat into electrical energy. The higher the efficiency, the smaller the loss, and the better the system's effect of utilizing waste heat. In the objective function, It is used to measure the amount of loss in energy conversion. In other words, the goal is to minimize the energy loss in the conversion process when each device receives waste heat power. Therefore, optimizing the conversion efficiency can effectively reduce the overall power distribution loss.
[0049] Furthermore, in the objective function, Represents the transmission loss. This item is related to the distance between devices and the characteristics of the transmission line. The transmission loss increases in a square relationship with the increase of electric energy. Therefore, when distributing electric energy, the transmission distance and the line conditions of electric energy transmission need to be considered. By modeling the transmission loss, the destination of waste heat electric energy can be reasonably arranged in the distribution plan to minimize the loss during the transmission process. For example, for devices that are farther away, the allocated electric energy can be appropriately reduced, and priority can be given to those devices that are closer and have smaller transmission losses.
[0050] Furthermore, is the allocation weight of the i-th target working device, indicating the priority of the device in the waste heat power distribution. Different devices have different requirements. Some devices have higher requirements for stable operation, so they can be given higher weights when distributing power. By setting the allocation weights, the priority of power distribution can be flexibly adjusted according to the importance and operating conditions of each device. For example, for heating equipment operating in a low temperature environment, a higher weight can be set to ensure that it obtains enough power for heating, thereby avoiding the device from affecting normal operation due to low temperature.
[0051] Furthermore, in order to prevent equipment malfunction or energy waste due to excessive allocation of electric energy, and to ensure that all waste heat electric energy is reasonably allocated to avoid electric energy waste or insufficient allocation, corresponding objective function constraints are set.
[0052] Based on the scheme of the present invention, by modeling and optimizing the conversion process of waste heat into electrical energy, the system can minimize conversion losses and improve the conversion efficiency of waste heat. This can not only reduce energy waste, but also make more efficient use of waste heat in wind turbines.
[0053] In the transmission process of waste heat power, by modeling the transmission loss, the distribution of power can be made more reasonable and the energy loss in the transmission process can be reduced. Especially when the distance between wind turbine equipment is far, this optimization can significantly reduce the transmission loss. By accurately predicting and modeling the energy demand of each target working equipment, the system can ensure that each equipment obtains sufficient power to meet its normal operation needs and avoid equipment failure or unstable operation due to insufficient power. By setting reasonable distribution weights, the power supply of key equipment can be prioritized, especially under harsh operating conditions. This strategy can effectively improve the overall operating stability and reliability of wind turbines and reduce the risk of failures caused by low temperature or unreasonable energy distribution. By minimizing various types of losses in the power distribution process, the overall energy efficiency of wind turbines can be significantly improved, the demand for additional power can be reduced, and the goal of energy conservation and emission reduction can be achieved.
[0054] Step S40: executing waste heat recovery electric energy distribution based on the waste heat recovery electric energy distribution scheme obtained by simulation.
[0055] Specifically, the objective function is solved based on nonlinear programming until the iteration termination rule is met; a corresponding waste heat recovery electric energy distribution plan is generated based on the waste heat recovery electric energy distribution amount of each target working equipment in the latest iteration round; based on the waste heat recovery electric energy distribution plan, the preset recovered electric energy is distributed to each target working equipment.
[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, a nonlinear optimization method (such as gradient descent, Lagrange multiplier method or mixed integer nonlinear programming tool) is used to gradually approach the global optimal solution through iteration. In a possible implementation, the objective function is solved based on gradient descent, and the solution process is: 1) Initialization parameters: setting learning rate and initialization Initially assigned value for each device.
[0057] 2) Calculate the objective function The gradient is:
[0058] in, Assign variable to the i-th pair for the objective function f The partial derivative of The rate of change of the objective function f when a small change occurs.
[0059] 3) Update variables based on calculated gradients , the update rule is:
[0060] in, is the updated variable; is the learning rate.
[0061] 4) After each update, determine whether the updated variable satisfies If it is not satisfied, it is forced to be corrected. The correction rules are:
[0062] If the updated , then the correction is made through proportional adjustment, and the correction rule is: .
[0063] 5) Repeat steps 2) to 4) until one of the following conditions is met: the modulus of the current gradient is lower than the threshold or the number of iterations reaches the preset maximum value.
[0064] Based on the scheme of the present invention, the scheme of the present invention can significantly reduce the loss in the process of power distribution, improve the utilization rate of waste heat, reduce the demand for additional power, and ultimately improve the overall energy efficiency of the wind turbine. In addition, by iteratively solving and generating distribution schemes, it is ensured that each target working equipment can obtain the required power supply in any operating state, ensuring the stability and reliability of the system, meeting the goals of energy conservation, emission reduction and green development, and having significant application value and technical advantages.
[0065] In another possible implementation, the waste heat allocation is performed directly based on the priority of the target working equipment, such as Figure 2 First, the electricity generated by the waste heat recovery process enters the main control system, which checks the needs of each target working system in turn, including the power system, heating system, and lighting system. If a system has a useful energy demand, it will be allocated electricity to that system first, and when the demand is met or there is no demand, the next system will be checked. After the needs of the power system, heating system, and lighting system are processed in turn, the remaining waste heat electricity will be allocated to the energy storage system for storage for subsequent use. The entire process is coordinated by the main control system to ensure that the electricity needs of each system are met first, and the remaining part is stored.
