Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of building structural health monitoring, and in particular to a method, apparatus, electronic device, and computer-readable storage medium for calculating the temperature field of tall towers. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing severity of global climate change, new energy sources, represented by wind power, are booming, and more and more wind turbines are being put into operation. The supporting tower, as a large and tall structure, is significantly affected by temperature. Temperature changes can cause variations in the tower's material properties and thermal expansion and contraction, leading to structural deformation, stress, strain, and support reactions under the constraints of boundaries and connections between components. This temperature-related effect can cause structural temperature defects, significantly impacting the structure's safety and durability. Therefore, accurately obtaining the temperature field distribution of tall towers is of great significance for practical engineering.

[0003] Traditional methods of obtaining structural temperature rely heavily on on-site measurements. However, real-time temperature monitoring based on structural health monitoring systems is characterized by high cost, long processing time, and low analysis efficiency. Furthermore, sensors may malfunction, be damaged, or be lost within their service life, which cannot meet the engineering analysis needs of most tower structures and the requirement for long-term stable data acquisition.

[0004] With the rapid development and popularization of computer technology, the finite element method has quickly expanded from structural engineering strength analysis to almost all scientific and technological fields, becoming a diverse, widely used, and highly efficient numerical analysis method. The finite element analysis method simplifies complex engineering problems by discretizing continuous structures, greatly improving efficiency and reducing costs. Ansys, a globally renowned finite element analysis software, possesses powerful fluid and thermal analysis capabilities and is widely used in structural analysis under multiphysics coupling.

[0005] Existing finite element thermal analysis methods often neglect the influence of surface wind speed on heat transfer path and heat transfer efficiency, leading to inaccurate thermal analysis.

[0049] Preferably, S130 further includes: establishing a two-dimensional circular cross-section wind field analysis model and a three-dimensional cylinder wind field analysis model for the tower structure with a diameter of D based on the tower's structural parameters, wherein the center of the bottom of the three-dimensional cylinder is set as the origin of the coordinate system, the X-axis is consistent with the incoming flow direction, and the Y-axis is parallel to the cylindrical cross-section of the three-dimensional cylinder; setting the design size of the calculation region to 40D×20D, setting the upstream incoming flow region to 10D, the downstream wake region to 30D, and the distance from the upper and lower boundaries to 10D respectively; dividing the tower model into a near-field region and a far-field region; using a preset dense grid to divide the near-field region and a sparse grid to divide the far-field region; setting the inlet boundary condition of the tower to a velocity inlet, the flow direction to horizontal, and the outlet boundary condition to outflow; setting the cylindrical wall through a no-slip wall shear condition; setting the upper and lower walls of the calculation domain to specified shear force conditions, and setting the shear force to zero; setting the ambient pressure to standard atmospheric pressure; and using a turbulence model to simulate the wind field distribution data of the tower's structural surface based on real-time meteorological data.

[0050] Specifically, the basic information on the tower's dimensions and materials, i.e., structural parameters, is obtained by referring to the original design and construction data; meteorological data is monitored on-site at the tower structure site to obtain meteorological data for the tower structure's operation; the collected meteorological data is adjusted, abnormal data is eliminated, and the adjusted meteorological data is used as alternative parameters.

[0051] The structural parameters used to build the model in this embodiment are derived from the design data of an onshore wind turbine tower and foundation in South China from a design institute. The structural parameters in this embodiment include, but are not limited to, the tower height, inner diameter, outer diameter, elastic modulus, density, Poisson's ratio, surface coating type and thickness of the material. Basic meteorological parameters are monitored on-site at the tower structure to obtain meteorological data of the tower structure's working environment. The meteorological data in this embodiment includes six parameters: zenith angle, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, rainfall, and total cloud cover.

[0052] In this embodiment, the zenith angle γ can be calculated based on the site's geographical information, using the following formula:

[0053] sinδ=0.39795cos[0.98563(N-173) / 180*pi];

[0054] ω = 15 × (ST - 12);

[0055]

[0057] Where h sδ is the solar altitude angle; δ is the solar declination angle, which is the angle between the sun's rays and the Earth's surface; N is the day number, which is the number of days since January 1st of that year; ω is the solar hour angle; ST is the local time. The latitude of the observation location;

[0058] Among them, v H Let H be the wind speed at height H, and α be the wind shear index, which is related to the surface roughness.

[0059] The collected meteorological data is adjusted, and abnormal data is removed. The adjusted meteorological data is used as the alternative parameter. In this embodiment, the collected meteorological data needs to be judged based on the 3σ criterion to identify abnormal data points. Data points exceeding 3 standard deviations are considered to be abnormal points.

[0060] The distribution of the local wind field on the structure is calculated to obtain the wind speed distribution at different angles and heights on the structure surface; the following two calculation methods can be used:

[0061] Method 1: Based on research, this invention proposes a simplified formula for the wind field of a two-dimensional circular cross-section and a three-dimensional cylinder. Based on this formula, the wind field distribution on the surface of the structure can be quickly determined.

[0062] Let the actual wind speed at each point on the surface be v, the angle between the wind speed and the wind direction be x, and the incoming wind speed be y. The simplified formula described in Method 1 for wind field calculation is as follows:

[0063] For a two-dimensional circular cross section, we have:

[0064] v = a1 + a2x + a3y + a4x 2 +a5xy+a6x 3 +a7x 2 y+a8x 4 +a9x 3 y; where the values ​​of the coefficients can be found in Table 1 below.

[0065] Table 1: Coefficient values ​​corresponding to different angle intervals

[0066]

[0067] Furthermore, for a three-dimensional cylindrical tower, considering the effect of the wind profile in the height direction, and taking the wind speed at a height of 10m as the benchmark, the calculation is performed according to the following formula:

[0068]

[0069] Method 2: Based on the tower dimensions and material parameters, establish accurate two-dimensional cross-section and three-dimensional wind field analysis models of the tower in Ansys' Fluent module; assign material parameters and divide the unit mesh; set the boundary conditions and simulation methods for fluid simulation, and calculate the wind speed distribution at different angles and positions of the structure under the action of incoming wind. That is, a two-dimensional cross-sectional model and a three-dimensional cylindrical structure model of a tower structure with a diameter of D are established respectively. The center of the bottom of the cylinder is the origin of the coordinate system, the X-axis is consistent with the incoming flow direction, and the Y-axis is parallel to the cross-section of the cylinder. The design size of the computational domain is set to 40D×20D, the upstream incoming flow region is 10D, the downstream wake region is 30D, and the distance from the upper and lower boundaries is 10D. The model is meshed using an unstructured method. Dense mesh is used to divide the near-field region to improve simulation accuracy, and sparse mesh is used to divide the far-field region to improve overall simulation efficiency. The boundary conditions are set as follows: the inlet boundary condition is velocity-inlet with horizontal flow direction, and the outlet boundary condition is set to outflow to allow free flow of fluid. The cylinder wall adopts a no-slip wall shear condition, and the upper and lower walls of the computational domain are set to specified shear force conditions with zero shear force. The ambient pressure is set to standard atmospheric pressure, and the LES turbulence model (large eddy simulation) is selected, which is suitable for capturing large-scale turbulence characteristics and providing more refined flow field information.

[0070] Specifically, it includes:

[0071] (1) As Figure 2 As shown, based on the tower dimensions and material parameters, accurate two-dimensional cross-section and three-dimensional wind field analysis models of the tower are established in Ansys' Fluent module.

[0072] (2) Establish a two-dimensional cross-sectional model of the tower structure with a diameter of D = 4.7m and a three-dimensional cylindrical structure model with a height of 90m. The center of the bottom of the cylinder is the origin of the coordinate system, the X-axis is consistent with the direction of the incoming flow, and the Y-axis is parallel to the cross-section of the cylinder.

[0073] (3) The design size of the computational region is set to 40D×20D, the upstream inflow region of the model is 10D, the downstream wake region is 30D, and the distance from the upper and lower boundaries is 10D;

[0074] (4) Based on this, set the boundary conditions and simulation methods for fluid simulation;

[0075] The boundary conditions and simulation method settings for fluid simulation in this embodiment are shown in Table 2 below:

[0076] Table 2:

[0077]

[0078] In this embodiment, the wind speed distribution at different angles and positions of the structure under the influence of incoming wind is calculated based on the two methods described above, i.e., the local wind field characteristics of the structure, such as... Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown.

[0079] The radiative heat transfer coefficient for thermal analysis was selected based on the type of surface coating on the cylinder; the convective heat transfer coefficient for thermal analysis was calculated based on the calculation results of the local wind field; considering the changes in radiation intensity and angle over a 24-hour period due to sunrise and sunset and cloud cover, the distribution of these changes was calculated; an accurate thermal radiation analysis model was established in the structural analysis module of Ansys; and appropriate element types and element meshing methods were selected to ensure accuracy while improving computational efficiency. Figure 7 As shown; in this embodiment, to simulate the influence of internal temperature differences on the structural temperature field, thermal radiation elements are applied inside the structure in the thermal analysis model, such as... Figure 4 As shown; combining the above-mentioned radiative heat transfer coefficient, convective heat transfer coefficient, and changes in radiation intensity and angle, a third type of thermal boundary condition is applied to the thermal analysis model to accurately simulate the heat transfer mechanism and path of the tower under the action of a wind field. The temperature distribution of the two-dimensional cross-section and the three-dimensional cylinder of the tower structure is calculated, as shown. Figure 5 , Figure 8 As shown.

[0080] Based on the above-mentioned radiative heat transfer coefficient, convective heat transfer coefficient, and variations in radiation intensity and angle, a third type of thermal boundary condition is applied to the thermal analysis model to accurately simulate the heat transfer mechanism and path of the tower under the influence of a wind field. The temperature distribution of the two-dimensional cross-section and the three-dimensional cylinder of the tower structure is calculated. Furthermore, the equations for solving the temperature field under the third type of thermal boundary condition are as follows:

[0081]

[0082] In the formula: k is the thermal conductivity of the material, a physical property parameter used to reflect the material's thermal conductivity; n x n y The cosine of the outward normal to the structural surface is used to define the surface orientation and affects the direction of heat transfer; T a It refers to the ambient temperature; T s It is the structural temperature; T sa It is the overall ambient temperature, used to integrate the overall convective ambient temperature (T). a The equivalent temperature of the radiation environment temperature effect; q is the shortwave radiation absorbed by the structure; h r It is the radiative heat transfer coefficient based on the type of surface coating, which integrates surface emissivity, absorptivity, and ambient radiation to characterize radiative heat transfer capability; h cIt is the convective heat transfer coefficient based on the wind speed at the surface of the structure, which depends on the fluid velocity, physical properties, etc., and characterizes the surface convective heat transfer efficiency; T is the surface temperature of the structure, which is the quantity to be solved; x and y are the directions.

[0083] Radiative heat transfer data h r Provided directly from radiative heat transfer data, which includes: the emissivity (ε) and absorptivity (α) of the surface coating and the sky background temperature (radiative environment), hr = εσ(T 2 +T sky 2 (T+T) sky ), where σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant.

[0084] The radiation intensity data corresponds to q (shortwave radiation), which is represented in the boundary conditions as: q = α·I solar (I solar (This refers to solar radiation intensity).

[0085] Surface normal direction (n) x ,n y It is indirectly affected by radiation angle data (such as solar azimuth / altitude angle).

[0086] The direction of the normal determines the solar radiation incident angle (which affects the actual absorbed shortwave radiation q) and the apparent factor between the surface and the sky / environment (which affects the radiative heat transfer efficiency).

[0087] Radiation models are used to represent ambient temperature (T) a Coupled with the radiation field, it generates the overall environmental temperature T. sa For example: T sa =T a +εΔR\h c (ΔR is the net radiative heat flux, which needs to be calculated using a radiation model).

[0088] Furthermore, the radiative heat transfer coefficient h based on the type of surface coating... r The calculation formula is as follows: h r =ξC s (T s +T a +2T k )·[(T s +T k ) 2 +(T a +T k ) 2 ];

[0089] In the formula, ξ is the emissivity of the material, and T a It refers to the ambient temperature; T s It is the structural temperature.

[0090] Radiative heat transfer coefficient h r Used to measure the efficiency of heat transfer between a structural surface and its environment via thermal radiation, measured in W / (m²). 2 The larger the value of K, the stronger the radiative heat dissipation capacity (e.g., dark coatings heat up quickly but also dissipate heat quickly).

[0091] The emissivity ξ of a material represents its ability to release energy in the form of thermal radiation. Its value ranges from 0 (perfect reflector) to 1 (ideal blackbody). Engineering examples: Smooth aluminum plate: ξ≈0.05 (reflects most of the heat); Rusty steel plate: ξ≈0.85 (efficiently absorbs and radiates heat).

[0092] Stefan-Boltzmann constant × conversion factor C s This is a fundamental physical constant of thermal radiation, representing the rate of radiative energy transfer in a vacuum. Its value is 5.67 × 10⁻⁶. -8 W / (m 2 ·K 4 This is used to transform the fourth power relationship of temperature into a simplified form that can be linearly processed in engineering.

[0093] Structural surface temperature T s The unit is K (Kelvin). The higher the temperature of the structure itself, the more heat it radiates outward (in summer, the surface of a steel tower can reach 60℃≈333K).

[0094] Ambient temperature T a This refers to the air temperature away from the structure (the air that is heated outside the structure).

[0095] Equivalent radiation characteristic temperature T k Intermediate variables introduced to simplify calculations are combined with temperature product terms.

[0096] In particular, the radiation heat transfer coefficient of steel structures under different surface coatings in actual engineering can be taken from the values ​​in Table 3 below.

[0097] Table 3: Values ​​of radiative heat transfer coefficients for each coating type

[0098]

[0099] Furthermore, the formula for calculating the convective heat transfer coefficient hc at different wind speeds in a local wind field is as follows:

[0100] h c =11.42 + 4.23v;

[0101] In the formula h c denoted as convective heat transfer coefficient, and v as local wind speed.

[0102] Furthermore, an accurate thermal radiation analysis model was established in the structural analysis module of Ansys. Appropriate element types and meshing methods were selected to ensure accuracy while improving computational efficiency. Specifically, this included: using two-dimensional four-node PLANE55 thermal solid elements and high-order three-dimensional SOLID90 thermal solid elements to simulate air in the thermal analysis model; simplifying the calculation model by applying a high-resolution air ring mesh with a wall thickness five times that of the tower inside, replacing the completely filled air elements, thus ensuring computational accuracy while improving computational efficiency; defining the radiation matrix using the / AUX12 command in ANSYS and establishing a radiation model inside the air elements using the MATRIX50 super-element to more comprehensively simulate heat exchange; and further, applying different radiation angles and intensities over a 24-hour period to simulate the rising and setting of the sun and cloud cover.

[0103] The comparison diagram of the simulation method based on the present invention and the actual monitored temperature in this embodiment is shown below. Figure 9 As shown, the accuracy of temperature field simulation is significantly improved after considering wind field characteristics. The absolute temperature difference between the measured and simulated values ​​at the four measuring points at each time point is below 0.5℃ during the day and below 0.2℃ in the early morning or at night. The relative temperature difference range is 1.16%, which meets the requirements of actual engineering.

[0104] In summary, this invention first obtains the basic information on the tower's dimensions and materials, i.e., structural parameters, by referring to the original design and construction data. Meteorological data is monitored on-site at the tower structure site to obtain operational meteorological data. The collected meteorological data is then adjusted, and abnormal data is removed. The adjusted meteorological data serves as alternative parameters. The wind field distribution is calculated based on the proposed simplified wind field formula or Fluent software. The convective heat transfer coefficient is calculated as the thermal boundary condition in the tower's temperature field calculation. Furthermore, an accurate thermal radiation analysis model is established in Ansys' structural analysis module. Appropriate element types and element partitioning methods are selected to create the mesh, ensuring accuracy while improving computational efficiency. The radiative heat transfer coefficient is calculated based on the surface coating of the tower body. A third type of boundary condition, considering local wind field characteristics, is applied to accurately simulate the heat transfer mechanism and path of the tower under wind conditions. Finally, considering the changes in radiation intensity and angle caused by sunrise and sunset and cloud cover throughout the day, corresponding boundary conditions are applied to obtain the two-dimensional cross-section and three-dimensional temperature distribution of the tower structure. The method provided by this invention enables the input of site meteorological parameters, rapid acquisition of structural temperature data, and high prediction accuracy, thus possessing strong engineering applicability.

[0105] The method provided in this invention establishes an accurate numerical analysis model of heat transfer in a tower using Ansys, enabling precise prediction of local wind field distribution in two-dimensional tower cross-sections and three-dimensional tower structures in actual engineering projects, and further analysis of the temperature field distribution of tall towers. Compared to traditional monitoring methods, this method offers high computational accuracy, low cost, and strong operability, making it suitable for widespread application in engineering projects. Based on the Fluent module, this invention calculates the wind field distribution characteristics of the tower structure, and then calculates the convective heat transfer coefficient. The type of coating on the tower surface is used to select the radiative heat transfer coefficient, which serves as the thermal boundary condition for heat transfer simulation, resulting in more accurate simulation of the heat transfer mechanism and path. The simplified thermal analysis model provided in this invention significantly improves computational efficiency while maintaining computational accuracy. The thermal analysis model with applied thermal radiation elements fully considers the internal structure of the tower. The influence of air temperature difference and heat transfer makes the analysis model more closely resemble actual working conditions. Compared with traditional methods based on finite element analysis and interactive programming software to calculate the temperature field, the method provided by this invention can shorten the calculation time, reduce memory usage, and improve calculation efficiency, thus having good engineering applicability. By combining the above method with the influence of surface wind speed on heat transfer path and heat transfer efficiency, the accuracy of thermal analysis can be improved. Furthermore, while considering the influence of external radiation (solar radiation) on the structural temperature field, the influence of internal radiation caused by local temperature differences within the structure is further considered based on the radiation model, thereby further improving the accuracy of thermal analysis.

[0106] This application embodiment determines the convective heat transfer data of the tower through wind field distribution data, establishes a radiation model of the tower through the structural parameters of the tower, and determines the temperature distribution data of the tower based on the radiation model, radiation heat transfer data, convective heat transfer data, radiation intensity data, and radiation angle data. This allows the thermal analysis of the tower to consider the influence of wind speed on the heat transfer path and heat transfer efficiency of the tower through convective heat transfer data, and also consider the influence of internal radiation caused by local temperature differences on the tower structure through the radiation model. Furthermore, it can consider the radiation influence caused by the movement of the sun and clouds through meteorological data, thereby significantly improving the accuracy of the thermal analysis of the tower.
