Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of power systems, and in particular relates to a wind turbine transmission chain test platform simulation method with controller hardware in the loop. Background Art

[0002] Wind turbines, as a typical renewable energy source, have a transmission chain system that plays a critical role in converting wind energy into electricity. These systems are complex in structure, subject to severe operating loads, and require highly coupled control strategies. Ground testing is essential to ensure the reliability and dynamic response of the transmission chain under variable wind conditions, grid disturbances, and complex control strategies.

[0003] However, traditional ground-based transmission chain testing relies heavily on physical loading devices and hardware-in-the-loop control systems. This not only results in high equipment construction costs and low iteration efficiency, but also makes it difficult to flexibly cover a wide range of extreme operating conditions. Furthermore, most current transmission chain testing methods employ "software-in-the-loop" simulation, where control models are run entirely within the simulation platform. This approach fails to accurately reflect the response characteristics of controller hardware, communication delays, and field deployment status, resulting in deviations between control strategy evaluation results and actual results. Summary of the Invention

[0011] Furthermore, the electrical subsystem includes a generator model, a converter model, and a grid simulator model; For the generator, a mathematical model under the synchronous rotating coordinate system dq is selected for construction. The generator stator voltage equation is:

[0012] The electromagnetic torque equation is:

[0014] Among them, u d 、u q are the dq axis components of the stator voltage, i d 、i q are the dq axis components of the stator current, R is the stator resistance, L d , L q are the dq axis inductance components, ψ f is the permanent magnet flux; ω e 、ω m are the electrical angular velocity and mechanical angular velocity of the generator respectively; θ e is the generator electrical angle; p n is the number of generator pole pairs.

[0015] Furthermore, the converter model includes the motor-side converter, the DC bus, and the grid-side converter; The motor-side converter adopts direct torque control strategy, and the grid-side converter adopts a grid voltage and current dual closed loop; The d-axis and q-axis components of the grid-connected current are controlled to adjust the grid-connected active and reactive power. The expressions for the output active and reactive power are as follows: Control the d-axis and q-axis components of the grid-connected current to adjust the grid-connected active and reactive power, and the output active power and reactive power The expression is as follows:

[0016] When the grid voltage integrated vector is oriented on the d-axis, the grid voltage projection on the q-axis is 0, that is, u gq =0, the converter output power changes as follows:

[0017] Among them, u gd 、u gq are the dq axis components of the grid voltage respectively; i gd 、i gq are the dq axis components of the grid current respectively.

[0018] Furthermore, in step S4, the subsystem control system includes a traction motor controller, a non-torque loading controller, a generator controller, a converter controller and a grid simulator controller, which respectively establish a control command channel and a feedback signal channel with the transmission chain model.

[0019] Furthermore, in step S6, grid voltage amplitude / frequency deviation, three-phase imbalance, and harmonic grid disturbance conditions are simulated during the simulation process.

The conditions for determining the effectiveness of the control strategy include that the response time does not exceed the set time limit, the transmission chain structure is not overloaded, and the deviation between the main control instruction and the feedback signal is within the set range.

In terms of control system modeling, by dividing the main controller and multiple subsystem controllers, each responsible for different control objectives, and deploying them to a rapid control prototype, a high-real-time data channel is formed between the controller entity and the simulation model, effectively compensating for the lack of authenticity of the control link in traditional soft-loop simulation.

[0031] Step S2: establishing a wind field model and loading the wind field model into the wind turbine simulation model, wherein the wind field model is a turbulent wind field model with three-dimensional spatial characteristics; A standardized wind field model is established, based on the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) wind turbine design specifications (e.g., IEC Class I and IEC Class II wind conditions as defined in IEC 61400-1). A turbulent wind field model with three-dimensional spatial characteristics is constructed. This modeling process supports the configuration of multiple wind condition models, including but not limited to: steady-state uniform wind fields, single-point wind conditions, and transient extreme wind conditions.

[0032] The established three-dimensional wind field model is loaded into the Bladed wind turbine model, providing diversified wind load input conditions that meet international standards for subsequent simulation analysis, and providing a realistic and reliable working environment for the performance verification of the wind turbine.

The motor side converter adopts direct torque control strategy, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is the control block diagram of the machine-side converter: Get the grid current I a , I b , I c And through dq coordinate transformation, we can get its dq component I sd , I sq , where α and β are the middle stationary two-phase orthogonal coordinate systems, projecting the three-phase system onto a two-dimensional plane to facilitate subsequent dq coordinate transformation. The electromagnetic torque of the generator is proportional to the stator q-axis current, so by adjusting I sq The electromagnetic torque of the permanent magnet synchronous generator can be adjusted, and then the speed of the generator and wind turbine can be adjusted to follow the wind speed change, where T ref 、Popt 、ω opt , K mppt , represent torque reference value, optimal power, optimal speed and MPPT control coefficient respectively, I sd_ref , I sq_ref is the reference value of the dq axis current component, T g 、ω s 、ω r Represent the generator torque, stator current angular velocity, generator speed, L s , ψ0 represent the stator inductance and stator flux in the dq coordinate system respectively; exist Figure 4 The middle process is: According to the optimal value of the generator electromagnetic power P opt The optimal torque of the generator is thus calculated, and the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is achieved through effective control of the generator torque.

[0042] Since there is a cross-coupling term in the dq axis voltage in the dq rotating coordinate system (-L s *ω s *i sq+ ω s *ψ0 and L s *ω s *i sq ), these coupling terms need to be compensated to obtain the final dq axis voltage reference value U sd with U sq The corresponding PWM switching signal is generated according to the voltage reference signal.

[0045] When the grid voltage integrated vector is oriented on the d-axis, the grid voltage projection on the q-axis is 0, that is, u gq =0, the converter output power changes as follows:

[0046] Among them, u gd 、u gq are the dq axis components of the grid voltage respectively; i gd 、i gq are the dq axis components of the grid current respectively; Step S4: constructing a control system, which includes a main controller model and a subsystem control system, and establishing a control command channel and a feedback signal channel between the subsystem control system and the transmission chain model; The subsystem control system includes a traction motor controller, a non-torque loading controller, a generator controller, a converter controller, and a power grid simulator controller, which respectively establish control command channels and feedback signal channels with the transmission chain model; Step S5: The controller hardware is a rapid control prototype.

Step S6: collecting the operating data of the tested transmission chain during the simulation process, and evaluating the control strategy and transmission chain performance based on the simulated operating data; During the simulation process, grid voltage amplitude / frequency deviation, three-phase imbalance and harmonic grid disturbance conditions are simulated; Collect transmission chain test data based on the test content. For example, based on the load test content, define calculation simulation conditions, including environmental conditions and grid conditions. Different working condition simulations correspond to different mechanical subsystem reference signals, as well as generator grid-connected related parameters. The collected data includes the rotor speed of the traction motor, the main shaft speed of the tested nacelle, the active power of the generator, the six-degree-of-freedom load, etc. The six-degree-of-freedom load data provides data support for the reliability verification of the transmission chain. If the load data exceeds the safety threshold allowed by the transmission chain, the relevant control strategy needs to be adjusted until the load remains within the safe range; The transmission chain response during the simulation process is evaluated by constructing a performance evaluation system containing multiple indicators. The performance evaluation system includes control response time, transmission chain stress amplitude, speed fluctuation rate, electromagnetic torque mean square error, and stability margin under grid disturbance.
