Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of new energy technology, and in particular to a method, equipment and medium for stability analysis of offshore wind turbines based on operating parameters. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of renewable energy, offshore wind power has gradually become an important pillar of global energy structure transformation. Due to the stability of offshore wind resources and high area utilization efficiency, offshore wind power projects are being deployed at an accelerated pace globally. However, offshore wind farms are typically connected to the terrestrial power grid via long-distance submarine cables, resulting in high grid impedance and weak voltage support, creating a typical weak grid environment. Under these conditions, wind turbines are more susceptible to external disturbances and internal control interactions, leading to operational stability issues, including subsynchronous oscillations, control system coupled oscillations, and high-frequency instability. Therefore, operational stability analysis of offshore wind turbines has become one of the key technologies for ensuring safe grid connection and efficient operation of wind power.
[0003] Currently, the analysis of wind turbine stability mainly employs modeling and simulation-based methods, with the impedance method being the most widely used. This method establishes a frequency domain model of the wind turbine's output impedance and the grid's equivalent impedance, analyzes the amplitude and phase relationship between the two at specific frequencies, and uses the Nyquist criterion to determine the system's stability. The impedance method can accurately reflect the interaction characteristics between the turbine and the grid, especially advantageous in studying subsynchronous oscillations and controller interactions. However, this method is highly dependent on model and controller parameters, which are difficult to obtain, and it is not suitable for rapid diagnosis and analysis during field operation. Another common method is eigenvalue analysis, which is based on solving for eigenvalues in a state-space linearized model of the wind power system to evaluate dynamic stability under small disturbances. Although eigenvalue analysis has a mature theoretical foundation and provides intuitive and clear results, it also suffers from complex modeling, time-consuming computation, and difficulty in handling nonlinear and large-disturbance conditions. In addition, time-domain simulation methods are also widely used in the research and verification of the dynamic behavior of wind power systems, but they rely on a complete simulation platform and detailed model configuration, requiring significant computational resources and making online application difficult.
[0004] Given the shortcomings of traditional methods in terms of real-time performance, model dependence, and system adaptability, a class of stability analysis methods based on operating parameters has gradually emerged in recent years. These methods do not rely on detailed models of the turbine controller but directly collect raw data generated by the wind turbine during operation, such as voltage, current, power, speed, and torque. Through signal processing techniques such as frequency domain analysis, time-frequency transformation, or pattern recognition, frequency components representing the dynamic characteristics of the system are extracted, with particular attention paid to the changing trends of subsynchronous and supersynchronous oscillation frequency bands. Based on this, a mapping relationship between parameter changes and oscillation characteristics is established to achieve real-time assessment and early warning of the wind turbine's operating status. Compared to traditional methods, operating parameter-based analysis is easier to deploy, applicable to various types of turbines, and possesses good versatility and real-time performance, making it particularly suitable for online monitoring and dynamic response management in weak grid environments. Therefore, researching a method and system oriented towards operating parameters, with oscillation feature extraction capabilities and stability assessment functions, has significant engineering application value and practical significance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method, equipment, and medium for stability analysis of offshore wind turbines based on operating parameters.
