Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wind power generation technology, specifically providing a method, equipment, and medium for optimizing wind farm layout considering the influence of surrounding wind farms. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of wind power technology, wind turbines are becoming larger and more large-scale, leading to increasingly clustered wind farms. This may result in more severe mutual influences between wind farms. The wake of a wind farm can significantly affect the surrounding flow field distribution, thereby impacting the power generation efficiency of other wind farms. Therefore, during the planning and design phase of wind farm micro-site selection, the influence of surrounding wind farms must be considered to ensure a reasonable layout of wind turbines and improve overall power generation.

[0003] Accordingly, there is a need in this field for a new wind farm layout optimization scheme that takes into account the influence of surrounding wind farms to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, the present invention is proposed to provide a solution or at least a partial solution to the technical problem that the existing wind farm layout schemes fail to take into account the influence of surrounding wind farms, resulting in low power generation efficiency of the constructed wind farms.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for optimizing wind farm layout considering the influence of surrounding wind farms, the method comprising:

[0024] Based on the ambient incoming turbulence intensity and the additional flow-direction turbulence intensity, the inflow turbulence intensity of the current wind turbine is obtained according to the following formula:

[0025]

[0026] Where Iu represents the inflow turbulence intensity of the wind turbine, ΔIu represents the additional flow-direction turbulence intensity, and I b0 This indicates the intensity of turbulence from the surrounding environment.

[0027] In some implementations, determining the hub-front wind speed of the wind turbines within the target wind farm based on the wake velocity deficit includes:

[0028] The inflow velocity loss at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine is calculated based on the superposition of the wake velocity loss of the upstream wind turbine on the current wind turbine.

[0029] Based on the inflow velocity deficit at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine, the wind speed in front of the turbine hub is determined by averaging the values ​​and using the following formula:

[0030]

[0031] Among them, U i U represents the wind speed in front of the hub of the i-th wind turbine under preset wind conditions; ∞ For the ambient airflow velocity; ΔU i (x,y,z) represents the inflow velocity deficit at multiple points on the rotor of the current i-th unit.

[0032] Furthermore, the step of calculating the inflow velocity loss at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine based on the superposition of the wake velocity loss of the upstream wind turbine on the current wind turbine includes:

[0033] For each wind turbine in the target wind farm, based on the wake velocity deficit of the upstream wind turbine at the current wind turbine location, the inflow velocity deficit at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine is determined by superposition according to the following formula.

[0034]

[0035] Wherein, ΔU i (x,y,z) represents the inflow velocity deficit at point (x,y,z) on the rotor of the i-th unit; ΔU ij The wake velocity deficit of the j-th unit at the point (x,y,z) on the rotor of the i-th unit; q ij Let q be a binary variable, and let q be a variable that is downstream of the i-th unit if and only if the i-th unit is downstream of the j-th unit. ij =1, otherwise q ij =0; N is the number of wind turbines in the wind farm.

[0036] In some implementations, determining the total power generation of the wind farm corresponding to individuals in the initial population based on the wind speed in front of the wind turbine hub and the wind energy efficiency curve of the wind turbines in the target wind farm includes:

[0038] Based on the current output power of the wind turbines, the total power generation of the wind farm is determined according to the following formula:

[0039] Among them, P total W represents the total power generation of the wind farm. jk Indicates wind speed as u j Wind direction is θ k Wind conditions; P i For unit i in wind condition W jk Output power at f(W) jk (W) is the wind condition. jk Frequency of occurrence; N θ For wind direction quantity; N u N represents the number of wind speed ranges taken under a single wind direction; N represents the number of wind turbine units in the wind farm.

Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

The singular terms "a" or "this" can also include plural forms.

[0052] See appendix Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating the main steps of a wind farm layout optimization method considering the influence of surrounding wind farms according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the wind farm layout optimization method considering the influence of surrounding wind farms in this embodiment of the invention mainly includes the following steps S11 to S14.

[0053] Step S11: Obtain the regional range, wind turbine parameter information, and wind resource distribution information of the target wind farm and its surrounding wind farms.

[0054] In this embodiment, the wind turbine parameter information includes at least the number of wind turbines, rotor diameter, hub height, thrust coefficient, and wind turbine power, and the wind resource distribution information includes at least wind speed, wind direction angle, wind direction and wind speed change frequency, ambient incoming wind speed, and ambient incoming turbulence intensity.

[0055] Step S12: Establish the initial population of the genetic algorithm based on the regional range of the target wind farm and the wind turbine parameter information.

[0056] In this embodiment, the initial population contains multiple individuals, each representing a wind farm turbine layout scheme. This step may specifically include: setting a wind turbine coordinate constraint that the distance between any two wind turbines in the wind farm is greater than n times the rotor diameter, where n is a positive integer greater than 1; based on the number of wind turbines and the wind turbine coordinate constraint, randomly generating the coordinates of each wind turbine within the area of ​​the wind farm, and establishing an initial population for a genetic algorithm based on these coordinates.

[0057] In one specific implementation, under the constraint of turbine spacing, the initial coordinates (x, y) of wind turbines can be randomly generated within the target wind farm area. The turbine coordinates are encoded using real numbers to establish an initial population. The initial population contains multiple individuals, each of which is a row vector containing 2N variables. Each individual represents a wind farm turbine layout scheme, where N is the number of wind turbines. The row vector of each individual consists of the x and y coordinates of each turbine, where the first to Nth variables are the x-coordinates and the (N+1)th to 2Nth variables are the y-coordinates. Real number encoding refers to representing each gene value of an individual using a floating-point number within a certain range.

[0058] For example, if the planned target wind farm is a 3000m × 3000m area, and the turbine spacing is limited to 4D, then the coordinate constraints for the wind turbines are:

[0059]

[0060] x∈(0,3000); y∈(0,3000)

[0061] Where, x i and x j The x-coordinates of the i-th and j-th wind turbines in the wind farm are respectively; y i and y j Let be the ordinates of the i-th and j-th wind turbines in the wind farm, respectively; D is the rotor diameter; d ij Let be the distance between the i-th and j-th generator units.

[0062] Specifically, based on the determined number of wind turbine units N, N coordinate positions are randomly generated within the target wind farm area, and the spacing between any two wind turbine units must meet the requirements.

[0063] Step S13: Based on the turbine parameter information, wind resource distribution information and preset wind turbine wake model of the surrounding wind farm, determine the wake velocity loss generated by the surrounding wind farm, and determine the wind speed in front of the hub of the wind turbine in the target wind farm based on the wake velocity loss.

[0064] In this embodiment, the preset wind turbine wake model adopts the Gaussian wake model.

[0065] Step S14: Based on the wind speed in front of the hub of the wind turbine and the wind energy efficiency curve of the wind turbine in the target wind farm, determine the total power generation of the wind farm corresponding to the individual in the initial population. With the maximum total power generation of the wind farm as the optimization objective, use a genetic algorithm to optimize the wind farm turbine layout scheme to obtain the wind turbine layout scheme of the target wind farm.

[0066] In this embodiment, this step may specifically include: determining the output power of the current wind turbine under preset wind conditions based on the wind speed and wind energy efficiency curve in front of the wind turbine hub, wherein the wind energy efficiency curve is the correspondence between wind speed and wind turbine power; and determining the total power generation of the wind farm based on the current output power of the wind turbine according to the following formula (1):

[0067]

[0068] Among them, P total W represents the total power generation of the wind farm. jk Indicates wind speed as u j Wind direction is θ k Wind conditions; P i For unit i in wind condition W jk Output power at f(W) jk (W) is the wind condition. jk Frequency of occurrence; N θ For wind direction quantity; N u N represents the number of wind speed ranges taken under a single wind direction; N represents the number of wind turbine units in the wind farm.

[0069] Based on steps S11 to S14 above, the total output power of the wind farm under the wind farm layout scheme corresponding to each individual is calculated as the optimization objective. Starting from the initial population, the optimization objective is maximized as the convergence condition. The layout scheme of the wind turbine units in the wind farm is optimized and iterated based on the genetic algorithm until the optimization objective reaches convergence, and a specific layout scheme of the wind farm is obtained, which includes the coordinate position of each wind turbine unit in the target wind farm.

[0070] The following provides further explanation of steps S11 and S13.

[0071] In step S11 above, the target wind farm refers to a planned wind farm to be constructed, and the surrounding wind farms refer to wind farms already built relative to the area where the target wind farm is located. For example, the area of ​​the target wind farm can be 3000m × 3000m, the number of wind turbines is N, for example N = 35, and the turbine model is Vestas-V80. The wind resource distribution information mainly includes wind resource measurement data and data calculated based on the wind resource measurement data, such as wind direction and speed, wind angle, frequency of wind direction and speed changes, ambient incoming wind speed, and ambient turbulence intensity. It can be understood that a wind rose diagram can be drawn based on the wind resource measurement data, and a thrust curve and wind energy efficiency curve can be drawn based on wind speed, wind turbine thrust coefficient, and wind turbine power. Figure 2 As shown, (a) is the rose wind diagram used in the embodiment of this application, and (b) is a schematic diagram of the thrust curve and wind energy efficiency curve used in the embodiment of this application. The environmental turbulence intensity is set to 0.12. Table 1 below shows the parameters of the hub height and rotor diameter of the wind turbine (hereinafter referred to as wind turbine) used in the embodiment of this application:

[0072] parameter size unit <![CDATA[Hub height z of the fan h > 70 m Wind turbine rotor diameter D 80 m

[0073] In step S13 above, this embodiment mainly calculates the impact of the wake of the surrounding wind farm within the planned wind farm based on the wind turbine parameter information and incoming flow information, through the additional turbulence intensity of a single wind turbine and the superposition method. Specifically: first, the operating status (thrust coefficient) of the first row of wind turbines is determined based on the inflow wind speed of the wind farm. The wake width of the wind farm is calculated through turbulence intensity. Then, the wake velocity distribution and additional turbulence intensity of the first row of wind turbines are calculated, which also yields the inflow velocity and turbulence intensity of the second row of wind turbines. And so on, the calculation is performed from front to back. The inflow velocity of the downstream unit is the result of the superposition of multiple upstream units.

[0074] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 3 The above step S13 will be explained in detail.

[0075] In one specific implementation, the wind turbines within the surrounding wind farm are arranged according to... Figure 3 The steps shown are used to calculate the wake velocity loss generated by the surrounding wind farm, such as Figure 3 The process mainly includes the following steps S131 to S135.

[0076] Step S131: Obtain the inflow turbulence intensity of the wind turbine, determine the wake expansion rate and near-wake region length of the wind turbine based on the inflow turbulence intensity and wind turbine parameter information, and calculate the maximum wake loss distribution based on the near-wake region length;

[0077] Specifically, based on the inflow turbulence intensity I u Determining the wake expansion rate k of the wind turbine within 8D based on wind turbine parameters w The calculation formula is as follows (2):

[0078] k w =0.38I u +0.004 (2)

[0079] Based on the inflow turbulence intensity I u Determine the length x of the near-wake region of the wind turbine. NW The calculation formula is as follows (3):

[0080]

[0081] Where x0 = 1D, Sc t =0.5, σ e =0.18, S′=0.043, C T denoted as thrust coefficient, and D is the rotor diameter of the wind turbine.

[0082] Based on the near-wake region length x NW The maximum loss distribution of the wake is calculated using the following formula (4):

[0083]

[0084] Where x is the distance between the upstream and downstream wind turbine units.

[0085] Step S132: Determine the width of the wake region based on the wake expansion rate of the wind turbine and the maximum loss distribution of the wake;

[0086] Specifically, based on the wake expansion rate k of the wind turbine... w and the maximum loss distribution of the wake Determine the width of the wake region The following calculation formula (5) is used:

[0087]

[0088] in,

[0089]

[0090] Step S133: Based on the wake width, the wind turbine parameter information, and the wind resource distribution information, solve the wake velocity deficit of the wind turbine using a preset wind turbine wake model.

[0091] Specifically, the formula for calculating the wake velocity deficit ΔU of a single wind turbine unit based on the Gaussian wake model is as follows:

[0092]

[0093] Where ΔU represents the wake velocity deficit of the wind turbine, U ∞ For the ambient airflow velocity. The wake width is given. The wind turbine parameters in the formula are as follows: y is the radial coordinate of the wind turbine, z is the vertical coordinate, and z... h The hub height of the wind turbine, y h For the wind turbine unit extending towards the center, C T denoted as thrust coefficient, and D is the rotor diameter of the wind turbine.

[0094] Step S134: Calculate the inflow velocity loss at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine based on the sum of the wake velocity loss of the upstream wind turbine on the current wind turbine.

[0095] Specifically, for each wind turbine in the target wind farm, the inflow velocity loss at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine can be determined by superposition according to the following formula (7) based on the wake velocity loss of the upstream wind turbine at the current location of the wind turbine.

[0096]

[0097] Wherein, ΔU i (x,y,z) represents the inflow velocity deficit at point (x,y,z) on the rotor of the i-th unit; ΔU ij The wake velocity deficit of the j-th unit at the point (x,y,z) on the rotor of the i-th unit; q ij Let q be a binary variable, and let q be a variable that is downstream of the i-th unit if and only if the i-th unit is downstream of the j-th unit. ij =1, otherwise q ij =0; N is the number of wind turbines in the wind farm.

[0098] Step S135: Determine the wind speed in front of the hub of the current wind turbine based on the inflow velocity deficit at multiple points on the current wind turbine rotor:

[0099] Specifically, based on the average of the ambient incoming wind speed and the inflow velocity deficit at multiple points on the wind turbine rotor, the wind speed in front of the current wind turbine hub is calculated according to the following formula (8).

[0100]

[0101] Among them, U i U represents the wind speed in front of the hub of the i-th wind turbine under preset wind conditions; ∞ For the ambient airflow velocity; ΔU i (x,y,z) represents the inflow velocity deficit at multiple points on the rotor of the current i-th unit.

[0102] Furthermore, the method for obtaining the inflow turbulence intensity of the wind turbine in step S131 above will be described in detail below.

[0103] First, based on the preset additional turbulence intensity model, the additional turbulence intensity in the upstream wind turbine at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine can be calculated.

[0104] The preset additional turbulence intensity model is determined according to the following formulas (9)-(15):

[0105] r 1 / 2 =1.18(k) w x+εD) (9)

[0106]

[0107] k w =0.38I b0 +0.004 (11)

[0108]

[0109] Then, for each wind turbine in the target wind farm, based on the additional turbulent intensity of the upstream wind turbine at multiple points on the rotor of the current wind turbine, the additional turbulent intensity of the current wind turbine at multiple points is obtained by superposition according to the following formula (16):

[0110]

[0111] Wherein, ΔIu i (x,y,z) represents the additional turbulence intensity in the flow direction at point (x,y,z) on the rotor of the current i-th unit; ΔIu jiq represents the additional directional turbulence intensity of the j-th unit at point (x,y,z) on the rotor of the i-th unit; ij Let q be a binary variable, and let q be a variable that is downstream of the i-th unit if and only if the i-th unit is downstream of the j-th unit. ij =1, otherwise q ij =0; N is the number of wind turbines in the wind farm.

[0112] Based on the ambient incoming turbulence intensity and the additional flow-direction turbulence intensity, the inflow turbulence intensity of the current wind turbine is obtained according to the following equation (17):

[0113]

[0114] Where Iu represents the inflow turbulence intensity of the wind turbine, ΔIu represents the additional flow-direction turbulence intensity, and I b0 δ(r) represents the intensity of the incoming turbulence, δ(r) represents the ground correction function, α represents the azimuth angle (0 degrees in the y-direction) corresponding to the radial peak position of the correction, and r 1 / 2 For the wake velocity deficit half-width, σ T This represents the standard deviation of the Gaussian distribution of ΔIu in the wake edge region.

[0115] For example, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of the present invention, wherein wind farm A and wind farm B are the surrounding wind farms of the wind farm construction area, i.e., the target wind farm, as shown below. Figure 5 The diagram shows a specific wind farm layout scheme obtained using the wind farm layout optimization method considering the influence of surrounding wind farms provided by this invention. In optimizing the layout of wind turbines in a wind farm, this invention comprehensively considers the wake influence of surrounding wind farms on the target wind farm under construction. While ensuring the total output power of the wind farm, the wind farm layout scheme designed based on the method of this invention can effectively extend the operational life of the wind farm and increase its power generation throughout its entire life cycle.
