Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of new energy, specifically an offshore hydrogen and ammonia production system based on the complementary energy of wind, solar and tidal energy. Background Art

[0002] The authorized invention patent "A Wind Gust Power Generation System" (patent number ZL201810995090.0, authorization announcement number CN109185061B) was found to have serious technical defects in its "wind-catching rotation system" during subsequent application development. Specifically, its "base angle adjustment system" relies on the torque generated by the "tail rudder" under the action of wind to drive the "power generation unit" to rotate so that the rotating surface of the blade faces the wind direction. However, a series of engineering demonstrations in subsequent research and development have shown that its wind-catching behavior is sluggish when the wind is relatively low; when the wind is high, the complex airflow movement such as eddies and turbulence causes the "power generation unit" to rotate frequently, generating high-frequency vibrations and even resonance, which not only increases the friction between the blades and the airflow, but also increases the mechanical wear, fatigue and energy loss inside the "power generation unit". In particular, severe vibrations and resonances can also cause the connecting bolts to loosen, fatigue the grid structure, and endanger the structural safety.

[0003] The existing "wind-catching rotation system" utilizes a "chord angle adjustment system" that drives the horizontal rotation of the "generator unit" through the overall rotation of the vertical chord to achieve wind-catching. This requires the vertical chord to be able to rotate horizontally at both the ball joint and the bottom support. However, the windward grid is a cantilever structure with a high vertical height and large bending moment. This leads to inherent problems with the rotation mechanism of the ball joint and the bottom support, such as high technical difficulty, high engineering costs, and low safety performance.

[0004] In addition, the original technical solution requires a solid structural foundation and is suitable for locations such as building roofs, mountaintop valleys, and seaside beaches, but is not suitable for wind power generation at sea, especially in the deep sea.

[0005] Furthermore, the "wind gust power generation system," which utilizes a three-dimensional array of "power generation units" on a "windward grid" to form a "power wall," effectively improves wind resource utilization efficiency and is easy to transport and install. Therefore, the "wind gust power generation" model represents an innovation in traditional wind power generation technology and requires further technological innovation to enhance its scientificity, adaptability, economic efficiency, and feasibility. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an offshore hydrogen and ammonia production system based on the complementary energy of wind, solar, and tidal energy, so as to achieve the above-mentioned scientificity, adaptability, economy, and feasibility. The details are as follows:

[0007] In terms of scientific nature, the present invention mainly solves the technical defects existing in the original invention "wind-catching rotation system", and uses a motor driven by automatic control to drive the worm and worm gear to adjust the direction of the power generation unit.

[0008] In terms of adaptability, the wind array power generation technology is combined with a ship to achieve offshore wind power generation; the power generation wall is extended underwater to utilize tidal and wave power generation; the cabin roof is covered with photovoltaic panels for offshore photovoltaic power generation; the electric podded propeller drive system is used for navigation, and favorable sea areas can be autonomously selected to avoid bad weather sea conditions. These measures achieve the complementary utilization of wind, light, and tidal energy, and improve the adaptability of the technical solution.

[0009] In terms of economy, the space grid structure has large spatial stiffness and is fixed to the cabin side plates, which not only strengthens the strength and stiffness of the hull and the grid, but also can use the cabin to install other equipment and store the generated energy. In particular, the grid members have small sizes, are convenient for transportation, installation, and maintenance, and do not occupy land and other land resources, so the comprehensive cost is low.

[0010] In terms of feasibility, the produced electric energy is used to electrolyze seawater to produce hydrogen, and the hydrogen is combined with nitrogen to form ammonia. Since the liquefaction conditions of ammonia are low and the transportation cost is small, the problem of energy transportation for deep-sea power generation is solved, and the feasibility of the present invention is improved.

[0011] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a hydrogen and ammonia production system for the sea based on the complementary use of wind, light, and tides, which is composed of a wind power generation unit 1, a tidal power generation unit 2, a photovoltaic power generation unit 3, an electric energy conversion device 4, a seawater hydrogen production device 5, an air nitrogen production device 6, a hydrogen-nitrogen ammonia production device 7, an automatic control device 8, a system structure framework 9, and an electric podded propeller 10.

[0012] The system structure framework 9 is made of corrosion-resistant materials and includes a grid 11, a bottom plate 12, side plates 13, a top plate 14, columns 15, stairs 16, guardrails 17, a hatch cover 18, and an anchor 19. Among them, the bottom plate 12, side plates 13, and top plate 14 are combined into a waterproof and floating hull structure, and the interior thereof is a cabin 20. The grid 11 is a space structure with a basic unit of a quadrangular pyramid, which is formed by vertically connecting vertical chords 21, horizontal chords 22, inclined web members 23, and joint balls 24 through grid bolts, and is vertically arranged around the hull structure and fixed to the side plates 13, with a part extending below the sea surface and another part rising above the sea surface. The plane shape of the hull structure is one of a circle and a polygon, and is connected to the grid 11 installed around to form an integral "H"-shaped cross-section space stress structure. Due to the long length of the grid, the plane size of the hull formed by the enclosure of the grid is large, thus ensuring the stability and safety of the system under the action of gravity, wind, waves, etc., and preventing sinking and capsizing.

[0013] The cabin 20 is equipped with the electric energy conversion device 4, the seawater hydrogen production device 5, the air nitrogen production device 6, the hydrogen-nitrogen ammonia production device 7, the automatic control device 8, the columns 15 supporting the top plate, and the stairs 16. The stairs 16 are connected to the bottom plate 12 and the top plate 14, and the upper part thereof is provided with the waterproof hatch 18, which is a vertical traffic facility of the cabin 20. The guardrails 17 are also provided around the top plate 14 to ensure the safety of the installation and maintenance personnel. The electric pod-type propeller 10 is installed directly below the bottom plate 12 through a suspension rotation mechanism, which can not only adjust the direction and orientation of the hull structure, but also drive the entire system to sail on the sea surface. This is the technical guarantee for autonomously finding wind farms and leaving dangerous sea conditions.

[0014] The middle part of the vertical chord 21 is equipped with a power generation unit 25 that can rotate 360 degrees horizontally. Figure 3 The power generation units 25 above the sea surface are the wind power generation units 1, which generate electricity using offshore wind power; the power generation units 25 below the sea surface are the tidal power generation units 2, which generate electricity using tides and waves. Several photovoltaic power generation units 3 are located above the top plate 14, generating electricity using solar radiation.

[0015] The electrical energy generated by the wind power generation unit 1, tidal power generation unit 2, and photovoltaic power generation unit 3 is transmitted via circuit lines 26 to the power conversion device 4 for processing, conversion, storage, and delivery to all electrical devices in the system. The purpose of energy storage is both to regulate peak loads and to ensure an uninterrupted power supply to the control system. The circuit lines 26 utilize coaxial cables, arranged within the rods of the grid 11 and electrically connected to the coaxial cable connection terminals located at the center of the grid bolts and node balls 24.

[0016] The seawater hydrogen production device 5 uses the electricity output by the power conversion device 4 to electrolyze seawater to produce hydrogen and oxygen, which are then pressurized and stored in hydrogen and oxygen storage tanks, respectively.

The hydrogen-nitrogen ammonia production device 7 uses the hydrogen and nitrogen to synthesize ammonia, and liquefies the ammonia and stores it in a liquid ammonia storage tank. The conditions for synthesizing hydrogen and nitrogen into ammonia include high temperature of about 500°C, high pressure of 40MPa to 60MPa, and a catalyst such as an iron catalyst.

[0019] The acceleration chamber 41 is provided with a front shaft 45 coaxial with and connected to the fairing 30 and the hub 32, its shaft seal and bearings, and an internal and external gear set 46 fixed to the front shaft 45. On the outer side of the internal gear in the internal and external gear set 46, there is a deep groove bearing that cooperates with the front port part of the body 34 to enhance the stability of the front shaft 45. The shaft seal, the front shaft 45, and the front cover 33 form a wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and sealed rotatable structure.

[0020] In the rotary bin 42, a circular tube 47 is vertically provided in the middle, which is coaxially and thread-sealedly connected to the upper cover 36 and the lower cover 37.

[0022] In the electrical bin 44, the generator 60 is installed at the center of the rear wall 40. The circuit board 62 is located behind the generator 60 and is fixed to the rear wall 40 by bolts.
