Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of arrester configuration for offshore wind farms, and particularly to a dynamic configuration method for arresters in offshore wind farms based on coordinated suppression of multiple overvoltages. Background Art

[0002] Offshore wind power is an important support for achieving the "dual carbon" goal, and its safe operation directly affects the consumption of new energy. However, since offshore wind turbines are installed on the sea surface and at a relatively high altitude, they are extremely vulnerable to lightning strikes. After being struck by lightning, the lightning current is conducted through the blade downlead to the nacelle and the tower barrel and then enters the sea water. During this process, strong electromagnetic coupling will occur between the wind turbine itself and the adjacent internal equipment, forming a relatively high lightning-induced overvoltage.

[0003] At the same time, since the cables in offshore wind turbines are generally close to the tower barrel, during lightning strikes, the armored layer, shielding layer, and core wire with conductive properties of the cable will generate induced voltages, thereby causing overvoltages between the tower barrel and the armored layer 、overvoltages between the armored layer and the shielding layer 、overvoltages between the shielding layer and the core wire to be relatively large. Therefore, additional arresters need to be configured to suppress the above overvoltages.

[0004] The current arrester configuration technology for offshore wind farms has the following technical defects: 1. Single evaluation dimension: Existing methods mainly focus on the suppression effect of arresters on a single overvoltage (such as the overvoltage between the tower barrel and the armored layer ), and do not systematically analyze the mutual influence of multiple overvoltages ( 、 and ) and their inconsistency with the configuration scheme, making it difficult to accurately evaluate different arrester configuration schemes.

[0005] 2. Insufficient application of lightning parameters: Existing lightning protection designs lack in-depth statistical analysis of offshore lightning characteristics (such as the proportion of different return stroke orders, the distribution of lightning current amplitudes, etc.), resulting in insufficient matching between parameter selection and the actual lightning environment.

[0006] 3. Lack of evaluation indicators: Existing technical specifications still use the overvoltage threshold as the single evaluation criterion, and do not establish a comprehensive evaluation method that combines the overvoltage tolerance ability and the lightning occurrence probability.

[0007] 4. Lack of flexibility in the scheme: Existing arrester configuration methods mostly adopt a fixed configuration mode and do not consider the different requirements of operators for cost-benefit and lightning protection effects. Summary of the Invention

Based on the lightning strike electromagnetic transient simulation model of the offshore wind turbine, conduct lightning strike simulations under various lightning current waveforms to obtain the overvoltage between the tower barrel and the armor layer , the overvoltage between the armor layer and the shielding layer , the overvoltage between the shielding layer and the core wire The critical lightning current when the insulation withstand strength is reached.
