For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0075] As Figure 1 shown, the wind turbine blade clearance control method of the preferred embodiment of the present application comprises:

[0076] S101: Constructing a plurality of adjustment periods, and generating a wind speed prediction curve in the current adjustment period according to a preset wind speed prediction model;

[0077] S102: Setting a pitch angle control strategy and a clearance value threshold curve in the current adjustment period according to the wind speed prediction curve;

[0078] S103: Establishing a plurality of monitoring points according to wind turbine equipment parameters, and acquiring real-time monitoring data collected by each monitoring point;

[0079] S104: Determining whether to generate a compensation instruction according to the real-time monitoring data, and correcting the pitch angle control strategy in the current adjustment period according to the compensation instruction.

[0080] Specifically, laser clearance monitoring devices are arranged at part of the monitoring points, and when the blade rotates to the monitoring point, the laser beam can quickly collect the distance from the blade tip monitoring point to the laser clearance monitoring device. After coordinate transformation, the tower clearance value is calculated. Laser wind radar is arranged at part of the monitoring points, which can measure the wind shear and wind speed variation rate of the incoming flow direction in real time.

[0081] Specifically, a wind speed prediction model is constructed according to historical monitoring parameters, the real-time clearance value threshold is dynamically adjusted according to the predicted wind speed, and the early warning efficiency for potential blade tower scanning risk is improved. Ensure the safe operation of the wind turbine.

[0082] Specifically, when constructing a plurality of adjustment periods, it comprises:

[0083] Acquire historical environmental data and wind turbine equipment parameters, and generate a historical evaluation value a;

[0084]

[0085] Wherein, e1 is a preset first fixed coefficient; e2 is a preset second fixed coefficient; Q1 is a preset first weight coefficient; Q2 is a preset second weight coefficient; θ1 is the number of environmental evaluation indexes; βi is the influence factor of the i th environmental evaluation index; j i is the reference value of the i th environmental evaluation index generated based on historical environmental data; θ2 is the number of equipment evaluation indexes; αi is the influence factor of the i th equipment evaluation index; p i is the reference value of the i th equipment evaluation index based on the wind turbine equipment parameter setting;

[0086] The length t of the adjustment period is set according to the historical evaluation value a, and a plurality of adjustment periods are constructed.

[0087] Specifically, by setting the first fixed coefficient and the second fixed coefficient, all parameters in the model are normalized, so that each parameter is in the same value range.

[0088] Specifically, the environmental evaluation indexes include but are not limited to historical wind speed average, wind speed variation frequency, temperature, wind direction variation frequency and other parameters that may affect the clearance value, and the equipment evaluation indexes include but are not limited to blade parameters, wind turbine historical operation time, blade tower scanning failure frequency and other parameters. The greater the historical evaluation value is, the smaller the possibility of current wind turbine operation fluctuation and tower scanning risk is.

[0089] Specifically, when setting the length t of the adjustment period, it includes:

[0090] The preset first historical evaluation value interval (A1, A2), the second historical evaluation value interval (A2, A3) and the third historical evaluation value interval (A3, A4) are set.

[0091] If a is in the preset first historical evaluation interval, the length t is set to the preset first length T1, that is, t=T1;

[0092] If a is in the preset second historical evaluation interval, the length t is set to the preset second length T2, that is, t=T2;

[0093] If a is in the preset third historical evaluation interval, the length t is set to the preset first length T3, that is, t=T3; and T1

[0094] It can be understood that in the above embodiment, the length of a single adjustment period is dynamically adjusted, thereby improving the accuracy of the control strategy in a single adjustment period, improving the adjustment efficiency of the clearance compensation, and avoiding that the expected data deviates greatly from the actual data due to the too long single adjustment period, thereby affecting the clearance control efficiency.

[0095] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, when setting the pitch angle control strategy and the clearance value threshold curve in the current adjustment period, it includes:

[0096] a plurality of time intervals are set according to the wind speed prediction curve in the current adjustment period;

[0097] a time interval sequence B of the current adjustment period is established, B=(b1, b2…bi…bn), wherein bi is the i-th time interval in the current adjustment time interval; n is the number of time intervals in the current adjustment period;

[0098] expected wind rate change values in the time intervals are generated according to the wind speed prediction curve, and the clearance value threshold in each time interval is set according to all expected wind rate change values;

[0099] a clearance value threshold sequence C is established, C=(c1, c2…ci…cn), wherein ci is the clearance value threshold in the i-th time interval;

[0100] a clearance value threshold curve in the current adjustment period is generated according to the clearance value threshold sequence C;

[0101] a pitch angle control strategy in the current adjustment period is set according to the wind speed prediction curve and the clearance value threshold curve.

[0102] Specifically, the clearance value threshold refers to the minimum safe clearance value allowed by the fan blade in the current time interval, and when the actual clearance value is less than the clearance value threshold, there is a great possibility of tower scanning failure.

[0103] Specifically, the wind speed prediction curve is processed, and the number of time intervals is set according to the average wind speed change rate. The greater the average wind speed change rate, the more the number of time intervals.

[0104] Specifically, expected wind rate change values in each time interval are generated according to the wind speed prediction curve, and safe clearance values in each time interval are generated in combination with the average wind speed in each time interval and historical operation parameters, and the safe clearance values are set as the clearance value thresholds. Thus, the clearance value threshold sequence is constructed.

[0105] Specifically, when determining whether to generate a compensation instruction according to real-time monitoring data, it includes:

[0106] a plurality of feedback time nodes are preset in the current adjustment period;

[0107] monitoring data collected by each monitoring point at the current feedback time node is obtained, and an actual clearance value c' and a deviation evaluation value f of the current feedback time node are generated;

[0108] whether to generate a correction instruction is determined according to the deviation evaluation value f, and a correction coefficient r is set;

[0109] the clearance value threshold Δc of the time interval corresponding to the current feedback time node is obtained;

[0110] If c' < r * Δc, the current feedback time node generates a compensation instruction, and modifies the pitch angle control strategy in the current adjustment period according to the compensation instruction.

[0111] Specifically, when the real-time clearance value is less than the clearance value threshold, it indicates that the possibility of tower scanning risk in the current time interval is relatively large, and a compensation value needs to be superimposed on the original pitch angle control strategy to reduce the thrust of the wind wheel surface, improve the tower clearance, and at the time node when the current time interval ends, the pitch angle compensation value exits at a ramp rate.

[0112] It can be understood that in the above embodiment, by constructing multiple time intervals in a single adjustment period, the original pitch angle control strategy is periodically monitored, and dynamically optimized according to the real-time deviation evaluation value, thereby improving the clearance control efficiency of the wind turbine and reducing the probability of blade tower scanning accidents.

[0113] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, when the deviation evaluation value f of the current feedback time node is generated, it includes:

[0114]

[0115] Wherein e3 is a preset third weight coefficient; e4 is a preset fourth weight coefficient; Q3 is a preset third fixed coefficient; Q4 is a preset fourth fixed coefficient; n1 is the number of time intervals between the start time node of the current adjustment period and the current feedback time node; di is the actual wind rate change value in the i th time interval of the current adjustment period; d' i is the expected wind rate change value in the i th time interval of the current adjustment period; d' n1 is the actual wind rate change value at the current feedback time node; d' n1 is the expected wind rate change value in the time interval corresponding to the current feedback time node; Y is a selection function, if (d n1 -d' n1) ≤0, Y=0; if (d n1 -d' n1) >0, Y=1.

[0116] Specifically, by setting the third fixed coefficient and the fourth fixed coefficient, all parameters in the model are normalized, so that each parameter is in the same value range.

[0117] Specifically, by periodically generating the deviation evaluation value, the original wind speed prediction curve is monitored, and the corresponding clearance value threshold is adjusted in a timely manner according to the deviation value, so as to avoid misjudgment of real-time tower scanning risk caused by deviation of expected data.

[0118] Specifically, when judging whether to generate a correction instruction according to the deviation evaluation value f, it includes:

[0119] a first deviation evaluation value threshold F1 and a second deviation evaluation value threshold F2 are preset, and F1 < F2;

[0120] If f < F1, no correction instruction is generated in the current feedback time node, and r = 1 is set;

[0121] If F1 ≤ f < F2, a first-level correction instruction is generated in the current feedback time node, and a correction coefficient r is set according to the deviation evaluation value f;

[0122] If f > F2, a second-level correction instruction is generated in the current feedback time node, and the wind speed prediction curve in the current adjustment period is updated according to the second-level correction instruction, and a correction coefficient r is set according to the update result.

[0123] Specifically, in the first-level correction instruction, the greater the deviation evaluation value, the greater the corresponding correction coefficient r, and in the second-level correction instruction, the original wind speed prediction curve needs to be corrected, and the clearance value threshold in the current time interval is updated according to the corrected wind speed prediction curve, and the correction coefficient r is set as the ratio between the updated clearance value threshold and the original clearance value threshold.

[0124] It can be understood that in the above embodiment, the original wind speed prediction curve is continuously optimized and corrected by monitoring the operation data of the wind turbine in real time, thereby improving the early warning efficiency of potential tower-sweeping failure, improving the clearance control efficiency of the wind turbine, and reducing the probability of tower-sweeping accident of the blade.
