[0002] At present, the application environment of wind turbines is generally harsh, mostly in windy areas with thunderstorms, and the ambient temperature and humidity change frequently, especially in spring or autumn and winter. In this environment, when the surface temperature of the device drops below the dew point temperature, condensation will occur. Therefore, condensation will occur on the variable pitch motor used in wind turbines. Once the variable pitch motor fails to work properly or is damaged due to condensation, it will bring safety hazards to the safe and stable operation of the wind turbine. In severe cases, it may lead to serious unit accidents. Summary of the invention

[0005] Furthermore, the first decondensation event is that the ambient temperature is lower than the preset ambient temperature threshold and the ambient humidity data collected by the humidity sensor is greater than the first preset ambient humidity threshold; the second decondensation event is that the difference between the body temperature data of the variable pitch motor collected by the first temperature sensor and the ambient temperature data collected by the second temperature sensor is greater than the first preset temperature difference threshold and the ambient humidity is greater than the second preset ambient humidity threshold; the third decondensation event is that under the condition that the ambient humidity is greater than the second preset ambient humidity threshold, the difference between the body temperature data of the variable pitch motor collected by the first temperature sensor and the ambient temperature data collected by the second temperature sensor is greater than the first preset temperature difference threshold and less than the second preset temperature difference threshold.
[0006] Furthermore, the preset value of the first preset temperature difference threshold is greater than the preset value of the second preset temperature difference threshold; the preset value of the first preset ambient humidity threshold is greater than the second preset ambient humidity threshold.
[0007] Further, when the pitch motor is in the standby state, it is first determined whether the ambient humidity data collected by the humidity sensor is greater than a first preset ambient humidity threshold under the condition that the ambient temperature is lower than the preset ambient temperature threshold; if not, it is determined whether the ambient humidity is greater than the second preset ambient humidity threshold under the condition that the difference between the main body temperature data of the pitch motor collected by the first temperature sensor and the ambient temperature data collected by the second temperature sensor is greater than the first preset temperature difference threshold; if it is still not satisfied, it is determined whether the ambient humidity is greater than the second preset ambient humidity threshold under the condition that the ambient humidity is greater than the second preset ambient humidity threshold.
[0008] Furthermore, the pitch drive closes the pitch motor brake and, at the same time, starts zero-speed excitation of the pitch motor, controlling the excitation current to be input into the pitch motor by the pitch drive at a preset current value that is less than the rated current of the pitch motor.
[0009] Further, the pitch drive responds to the first decondensation event, then the pitch drive closes the pitch motor brake, starts the pitch motor zero-speed excitation, and controls the excitation current to be input into the pitch motor by the pitch drive at a first preset current value less than the rated current of the pitch motor.
[0010] Furthermore, the pitch drive responds to the second decondensation event, and the pitch drive closes the pitch motor brake, starts the zero-speed excitation of the pitch motor, and controls the excitation current to be input into the pitch motor by the pitch drive at a second preset current value less than the rated current of the pitch motor.
[0011] Further, the pitch drive responds to the third decondensation event, the pitch drive closes the pitch motor brake, starts the zero-speed excitation of the pitch motor, and controls the excitation current to be input into the pitch motor by the pitch drive at a third preset current value that is less than the rated current of the pitch motor.
[0012] A second embodiment of the present invention provides a decondensation device for a pitch motor of a wind turbine generator set, which adopts the decondensation method described in one embodiment of the present invention, and includes: a pitch drive, a pitch motor electrically connected to the pitch drive, a first temperature sensor arranged on the pitch motor and electrically connected to the pitch drive, a second temperature sensor electrically connected to the pitch drive, a humidity sensor electrically connected to the pitch drive, and a power supply electrically connected to the pitch drive; the humidity sensor is used to collect ambient humidity data, the first temperature sensor is used to collect the main body temperature data of the pitch motor, and the second temperature sensor is used to collect ambient temperature data.
[0013] In the technical solution involved in the embodiment disclosed in this application, by using the existing components of the existing variable pitch system and using temperature sensors and humidity sensors to collect environmental temperature and humidity data and motor body temperature data, and then classifying and grading the variable pitch motor decondensation events, it can not only effectively deal with different levels of decondensation and quickly remove condensation, but also achieve the purpose of saving energy loss.
