Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vibration control in wind power tower engineering structure, and particularly relates to a semi-active inertial non-linear energy sink for a wind power tower. BACKGROUND
[0002] During the service period, the land wind power tower inevitably faces the action of external wind load, and the offshore wind power tower also needs to face the influence of wave load, ice load and other external loads, and the vibration problem not only endangers the power generation efficiency of the wind turbine, but also causes structural safety problems. The nonlinear energy sink (NES) is an effective passive control technology for solving the vibration problem of high-rise structures. By installing NES in the structure, the problem of excessive structural response caused by external dynamic load can be solved.
[0003] The NES includes a mass block, a nonlinear spring element and a damping energy dissipation element. The mass block is connected to the controlled structure through the nonlinear spring and the damping energy dissipation element. When the controlled structure vibrates, the mass block moves back and forth according to the predetermined trajectory, repeatedly stretches and compresses the spring and the damping element, thereby achieving energy transfer and energy dissipation vibration reduction. Compared with the linear damper, the nonlinear energy sink has the characteristics of targeted energy transfer and unchanged natural frequency of the main structure, and can realize wide-frequency and high-efficiency vibration control.
[0004] The damping energy dissipation element of the commonly used NES is a viscous damper, including a piston, a shell and damping liquid. The mechanical energy of the controlled structure is converted into internal energy and dissipated by the reciprocating movement of the internal piston to press the damping liquid in the shell, thereby achieving the effect of vibration reduction. In order to realize the effectiveness of the NES, the design of the NES needs to meet certain mass ratio (the ratio of the mass of the NES to the mass of the controlled structure) and movement stroke. However, the internal space and bearing capacity of the wind power tower structure are limited, and the installation of the traditional NES will cause problems such as excessive additional mass and excessive movement stroke, thereby affecting the economy and effectiveness of the wind power tower. In addition, although the viscous damper is widely used in NES, it still has problems such as high cost, oil leakage, high temperature interference, difficulty in changing damping coefficient, etc. SUMMARY

[0029] The eddy current damping system comprises a conductor cylinder 6, a rectangular permanent magnet 7, a cylindrical electromagnet 8, a permanent magnet back iron 9 and an electromagnet back iron 10, the permanent magnet back iron 9 and the electromagnet back iron 10 are both hollow regular octagonal columns, the permanent magnet back iron 9 and the electromagnet back iron 10 are both in a direction perpendicular to the bottom plate 13, two rectangular permanent magnets 7 are mounted on each outer side surface of the permanent magnet back iron 9, the permanent magnet back iron 9 and the rectangular permanent magnet 7 are fixedly connected through bolts, the rectangular permanent magnets 7 are symmetrically distributed on each side surface of the permanent magnet back iron 9, the magnetization direction of the rectangular permanent magnet 7 is perpendicular to the direction of the contact surface of the permanent magnet back iron 9, and the two rectangular permanent magnets 7 on a single side surface of the permanent magnet back iron 9 have a gap and opposite magnetization directions; the rectangular permanent magnet 7 is parallel to the conductor cylinder 6 and has a certain gap; one cylindrical electromagnet 8 is mounted at the geometric center of each mutually spaced inner side surface of the electromagnet back iron 10, the electromagnet back iron 10 and the cylindrical electromagnet 8 are fixedly connected through screws, the N stage of the cylindrical electromagnet 8 is a free end after direct current is passed, and the cylindrical electromagnet 8 has a certain gap with the conductor cylinder 6; the size of the rectangular permanent magnet 7 and the cylindrical electromagnet 8 can be designed according to the requirement of the damping coefficient, the gap between the rectangular permanent magnet 7 and the conductor cylinder 6 can be designed according to the requirement of the damping coefficient, and the gap between the cylindrical electromagnet 8 and the conductor cylinder 6 can be designed according to the requirement of the damping coefficient;
[0030] The permanent magnet yoke 9 is nested inside the electromagnet yoke 10, and the center axes of the two are the same, and the fixed connection position of the permanent magnet yoke 9 and the electromagnet yoke 100 is at the upper end of the hollow octagonal column;
[0031] The support structure comprises L-shaped supports 11, a back yoke connecting frame 12, and a bottom plate 13. The back yoke connecting frame 12 is a hollow isosceles trapezoid. The electromagnet yoke 10 is fixedly connected to the two L-shaped supports 11 by bolts. The L-shaped supports 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom plate 13 by bolts.
[0032] The mass block 2, the inertia flywheel 4, the L-shaped supports 11, the bottom plate 13, and the slide rails 3 are all steel structures. The electromagnet yoke 10, the permanent magnet yoke 9, and the back yoke connecting frame 12 are all steel structures. The conductor cylinder 6 is made of copper or aluminum. The variable speed gear set 5 is a steel structure. The cuboid permanent magnet 7 is a neodymium iron boron magnet. The conductive coil of the cylindrical electromagnet 8 is made of copper.
[0033] When the mass block 2 moves horizontally, it drives the variable speed gear set 5 to rotate, thereby driving the inertia flywheel 4 to rotate at high speed around the vertical axis to generate an inertial force. The rotation speed amplification mechanism of the variable speed gear set 5 greatly amplifies the rotation speed of the inertia flywheel 4 around the axis, thereby obtaining a larger inertial force, effectively reducing the actual mass of the mass block 2 of the damper itself, and realizing the lightweight design of the damper. The edge of the inertia flywheel 4 has sufficient clearance to facilitate subsequent disassembly and size adjustment of the inertia flywheel 4.
[0034] The rotation of the inertia flywheel 4 will drive the conductor cylinder 6 to rotate around the vertical axis. According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, when the conductor cylinder 6 cuts the magnetic induction lines of the cuboid permanent magnet 7 and the cylindrical electromagnet 8, it will generate a damping force that hinders rotation. By adjusting the gap between the conductor and the magnet, the damping force output size can be easily adjusted.
[0035] The conductor cylinder 6 is located between the cuboid permanent magnet 7 and the cylindrical permanent magnet 8. By adjusting the size of the current flowing through the cylindrical electromagnet 8 in real time, the magnetic field strength of the cylindrical electromagnet 8 can be easily changed, thereby affecting the magnetic field strength of the cuboid permanent magnet 7, and further changing the size of the eddy current damping force. By changing the positive and negative polarities of the cylindrical electromagnet 8, the strength of the cuboid permanent magnet 7 can be switched between being enhanced and being weakened, effectively expanding the controllable range of the eddy current damping force. The addition of a control algorithm can realize semi-active control of the damping force of the damper to cope with external load conditions such as wind, waves, ice, and earthquakes.
[0036] Working principle: The vibration frequency of the damper is tuned to the vibration frequency of the controlled structure through the bottom plate and the nonlinear spring. When the controlled structure vibrates horizontally, the mass block slides horizontally along the slide rail, the transmission belt inside the mass block drives the gear set to rotate around the vertical shaft at high speed, and then drives the inertia flywheel to rotate at high speed, generating inertia force much larger than its actual weight. The conductor cylinder also rotates at high speed under the rotation of the inertia flywheel, and the permanent magnet and the electromagnet installed on the back iron frame on both sides of the conductor cylinder provide the magnetic field condition, so under the action of continuously cutting the magnetic induction lines, the conductor cylinder will generate strong eddy current damping force. The excess vibration energy of the controlled structure will eventually be dissipated in the form of heat. The use of nonlinear springs makes the damper still have good effect in a wide frequency band near the resonance frequency of the controlled structure. The back iron connecting frame fixed with the magnet back iron frame is a hollow structure, which expands the heat dissipation area of the damper, reduces the risk of heat accumulation of the damper, and increases the durability of the damper. According to the change of external dynamic load, the control algorithm is used to conveniently change the size of the current of the cylindrical electromagnet, so as to realize the enhancement or reduction of the magnetic field strength, and thus to obtain the optimal eddy current damping force in real time. The gear and rack type inerter system greatly reduces the actual weight of the damper and reduces the movement stroke of the damper. The cylindrical electromagnet plays a role in enhancing or weakening the magnetic field of the permanent magnet, and the installation form of the permanent magnet and the electromagnet on both sides of the conductor cylinder optimizes the adjustment range of the electromagnet to the whole magnetic field, which can realize the vibration control in a wider frequency band with the control algorithm.
[0037] Therefore, the application adopts the above-mentioned semi-active inertial mass damper for a wind power tower, introduces an inertial mass mechanism, greatly amplifies the rotating speed of the inertial flywheel through three-stage speed change of the variable speed gear set, and thus obtains greater inertial force, which on the one hand reduces the actual weight of the originally mass block, realizes lightweight design of the damper, and on the other hand shortens the horizontal movement stroke of the damper and saves the operation space of the damping device. By using the eddy current damping principle, the induced current is obtained by cutting the magnetic induction lines of the permanent magnet and the electromagnet through the conductor cylinder, and then the non-contact eddy current damping force is generated to dissipate energy, and the durability of the damper is improved. At the same time, the use of the permanent magnet back iron frame and the electromagnet back iron frame reduces the magnetic leakage phenomenon and improves the damping energy dissipation density. The cylindrical conductor has higher space utilization than the flat conductor. By controlling the size of the current and the positive and negative polarity sequence of the terminal post, the controllable range of the eddy current damping force is greatly increased. According to the external load condition of the wind power tower, the control algorithm is used to adjust the current of the cylindrical electromagnet in real time to obtain the optimal damping force and improve the effective frequency band of the damper. The mass spring system, the inertial mass system, the eddy current damping system and the support system are distributed along the vertical direction, are compact in assembly and have clear division of labor, and reasonably utilize the limited space to realize high-efficiency damping effect. In addition, the permanent magnet back iron frame and the electromagnet back iron frame are fixed by the back iron connecting frame, that is, the upper end of the eddy current damping system presents a large-area hollow state, which is convenient for dissipation of heat generated during eddy current damping energy dissipation and avoids the problem of internal heat accumulation.
