Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wind power generation equipment, in particular to a comprehensive control method for the ovality and coaxiality of a cylinder of a large offshore wind power generation equipment. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, with the increase of global energy demand and the increasingly serious environmental problems, wind power generation has developed rapidly as a clean and renewable energy form. In particular, offshore wind power has a broad prospect for development in the future because its energy efficiency is much higher than that of land wind farms, it is not restricted by land, and has less impact on landscape, noise and electromagnetic waves.
[0003] As the basic supporting structure of wind turbines, the quality and stability of wind turbine towers are crucial to the operation of the entire wind power generation system. In offshore wind power equipment, the control of tower ellipticity and coaxiality is a key difficulty in the manufacturing and assembly process. Ellipticity refers to the degree to which the cross section of the tower is close to an ellipse, while coaxiality refers to the degree of overlap of the center lines of each section of the tower in the vertical direction. The precise control of these two parameters directly affects the strength and stability of the tower, and thus affects the operating efficiency and safety of the wind turbine.
[0004] Existing technologies may lack a complete process from measurement, calculation of deviation, compensation processing to re-inspection. Some steps may be ignored or simplified, resulting in the inability to fully control the ovality and coaxiality of the cylinder. The lack of a systematic control process may lead to the accumulation and amplification of errors, making the performance of the final product unable to meet the design requirements.
[0005] Existing technologies may not be able to perform effective multiple iterations of measurement and compensation. Due to the lack of high-precision measurement equipment and accurate compensation strategies, the effect of each measurement and compensation may be limited, and the error cannot be gradually reduced, resulting in the cylinder's ovality and coaxiality errors cannot always be reduced to within the design requirements, affecting the overall performance and reliability of wind power equipment. Summary of the invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the above technical defects and provide a comprehensive control method for the ovality and coaxiality of the cylinder of large-scale offshore wind power generation equipment.
[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the technical solution of the present invention comprises the following steps: S1. Use the tire frame measurement model to determine the measurement position of the cylinder circumferential coordinates and the longitudinal section position, and design the measurement section according to the measurement position; S2. Arrange a measurement coordinate system at each measurement section, and determine the center position of the measurement section to arrange a fixed base; S3, measuring the coordinates of the center position of each measuring section by a coordinate measuring machine and a laser tracker; S4. Determine the deviation of the center position of each measuring section according to the measurement data and calculate the eccentricity distance; S5, calculating the ellipticity compensation processing amount of the area near the center of the measuring section on the measured cylinder, and performing compensation processing; S6. Use a laser tracker to detect the measured cross section of the measured cylinder again and obtain the measured coordinates after compensation; S7, calculating the ovality and coaxiality of the cylinder after compensation by measuring the coordinates after compensation, and judging whether the ovality error of the measured cylinder is qualified; S8. If the measured cylinder ovality is qualified, the ovality of the cylinder section below the measured section is measured; if it is unqualified, the measured section is measured and compensated again, and the ovality is tested again; S9. Repeat steps S1 to S8 until the ovality and coaxiality of the entire cylinder meet the design requirements.
[0008] Furthermore, the measurement sections in step S2 include a YOZ plane measurement section, an XOY plane measurement section and an XOZ plane measurement section, the center lines of the measurement sections are perpendicular to each other, and the measurement sections are used to measure the circumferential coordinates and longitudinal section position coordinates of the cylinder.
[0009] Furthermore, in step S4, a laser tracker is used to measure the coordinates of the center position of each measurement section, and the eccentric distance of the center position of the measurement section is calculated based on the measurement data.
[0010] Furthermore, in step S6, the laser tracker is used to measure the coordinates of the measuring points in the vicinity of the compensated measuring cross section of the cylinder to evaluate the effect of the compensation processing.
[0011] Furthermore, if the ovality error of the measured cylinder exceeds the allowable range, the correction method of adjusting the coordinates of the center position of the measuring section and performing compensation processing again are performed until the ovality and coaxiality of the measured cylinder meet the design requirements.
[0012] Furthermore, the tire frame arrangement in step S1 includes a measuring tire frame and a positioning tire frame, the tire frames are welded by steel sections, and two tire frames are arranged on the circumferential surface of the cylinder in a circumferentially spaced distribution manner.
[0013] Furthermore, in the step S3, the coordinate position of the fixed base for measuring the center position of the section is the same as the origin of the coordinates of the center position of the section being measured, and a measurement coordinate system is established through the fixed base. The coordinate measuring machine and the laser tracker are fixed on the tire frame, and the coordinate measuring machine and the laser tracker are used to measure the coordinates of the center position of the section being measured.
[0014] Furthermore, the calculation method of the ellipticity compensation processing amount in step S5 takes into account the eccentric distance of the center position of the measuring section and the geometric shape of the cylinder, and the ellipticity of the cylinder meets the design requirements through compensation processing.
[0015] Furthermore, in step S7, the ellipticity and coaxiality of the measured coordinates after compensation are calculated to determine whether the ellipticity error of the measured cylinder is qualified. If it is unqualified, re-measurement and compensation are performed.
[0016] The advantages of the present invention compared with the prior art are: The present invention provides a comprehensive control method for the ovality and coaxiality of a cylinder of a large offshore wind power generation equipment.
