[0009] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0010] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flowchart of the fan nacelle detection method provided by the application.
[0011] As shown in Figure 1 , in step S1, satellite signals, meteorological data and inertial measurement dynamic data are obtained.
[0012] The satellite signals include carrier signals, and the frequency and initial phase of the carrier signals are known. In some embodiments, the satellite is a Beidou satellite of China.
[0013] The meteorological data is the meteorological data of the location of the satellite signal receiver, and in some embodiments, the meteorological data includes temperature, humidity, and air pressure. The temperature, humidity, and air pressure are the main factors affecting signal propagation in the troposphere.
[0014] The inertial measurement dynamic data is the dynamic data of the fan cabin, and in some embodiments, can include acceleration and angular velocity data.
[0015] In step S2, real-time dynamic difference coordinate data is obtained from the satellite signal by a real-time dynamic difference algorithm, and meteorological error calibration data is obtained from the meteorological data.
[0016] The real-time dynamic difference data is the position data of the fan cabin obtained by processing the satellite signal by a real-time dynamic difference algorithm. The real-time dynamic difference algorithm is an RTK algorithm that includes positioning calculation. Specifically, after the fan cabin receives the satellite signal, it performs differential elimination of the carrier in the satellite signal with a reference station that also receives the satellite signal and has a known and determined position to eliminate common errors and determine the distance between the satellite and the receiver. The common errors include satellite orbit errors, satellite clock errors, and atmospheric delays. The specific formula is Φ = f × Δt + N × 2π, where Φ is the carrier phase observation, f is the carrier frequency, Δt is the signal propagation time difference, and N is the integer ambiguity, which represents the carrier integer number that cannot be directly observed. Since the wavelength of the carrier is short (about 19 cm), the RTK algorithm positioning calculation can calculate the precise difference of the carrier phase, enabling centimeter-level positioning of the fan cabin, and the position refers to three-dimensional coordinates. In some embodiments, the positioning calculation can be a least squares method. In other embodiments, the positioning calculation can be a Kalman filter method. In some embodiments, the field station reference station can calculate the error between the fan monitoring station and the fan monitoring station, and send the difference data to the fan monitoring station. After receiving the difference data, the fan monitoring station calculates the positioning data using the RTK algorithm.
[0017] Although the real-time dynamic difference algorithm can eliminate the common errors between the reference station and the fan cabin, the temperature, humidity, and air pressure of the troposphere above the reference station and the fan cabin can be different due to the large regional differences in the troposphere. Therefore, in order to further improve the accuracy of the monitoring data, meteorological data is introduced to obtain meteorological error calibration data for error calibration. The specific formula is δtrop = f(meteorological parameters, satellite elevation angle, geographic location, etc.), where δtrop is the position error calibration data.
[0018] In step S3, fan cabin position and attitude data is obtained from the real-time dynamic difference coordinate data, meteorological error calibration data, and inertial measurement dynamic data.
[0019] The three data are fused to realize accurate monitoring of the running state of the fan.
[0020] In some embodiments, the step S3 obtains the fan nacelle position and attitude data according to the real-time dynamic differential coordinate data, the meteorological error calibration data and the inertial measurement dynamic data, and includes: In step S31, different weights are respectively given to the real-time dynamic differential coordinate data, the meteorological error calibration data and the inertial measurement dynamic data. In step S32, the initial nacelle data is obtained by fusing the weights. In step S33, the fan nacelle position and attitude data are obtained by smoothing the initial nacelle data through a filtering algorithm.
[0021] The fan nacelle detection method provided by the application obtains satellite signals, meteorological data and inertial measurement dynamic data, obtains real-time dynamic differential coordinate data by using a real-time dynamic differential algorithm according to the satellite signals, obtains meteorological error calibration data according to the meteorological data, and obtains fan nacelle position and attitude data according to the real-time dynamic differential coordinate data, the meteorological error calibration data and the inertial measurement dynamic data. In this way, the satellite signals are used, and a small amount of sensor data is obtained, so that accurate real-time monitoring can be realized while reducing the number of sensors. In addition, the complexity and cost of the system are also reduced.
[0022] In some embodiments, the fan nacelle detection method provided by the application further includes: In step S4, it is judged whether the fan nacelle position and attitude data are abnormal values, if yes, step S5 is executed, and if no, step S1 is executed.
[0023] In some embodiments, the judgment of whether the fan nacelle position and attitude data are abnormal values includes: It is judged whether the fan nacelle position and attitude data exceed a preset threshold.
[0024] In other embodiments, the judgment of whether the fan nacelle position and attitude data are abnormal values includes: The fan nacelle position and attitude data are input into a pre-trained deep learning model to judge whether they are abnormal data.
[0025] In step S5, a warning mechanism is triggered.
[0026] Specifically, it can be an alarm, a notification or a log record, so that the operation and maintenance personnel can discover and handle the fault in time.
[0027] The application further provides a fan nacelle detection system, which includes: The wind turbine monitoring station comprises a satellite monitoring station receiver, a meteorological sensor, an inertial sensor and a real-time dynamic difference algorithm edge solution system. The station reference station comprises a satellite reference station receiver and a real-time dynamic difference algorithm edge solution system.

[0028] In some embodiments, the satellite monitoring station receiver is a dual-antenna receiver.
[0029] In some embodiments, the real-time dynamic difference algorithm edge solution system is built into the satellite reference station receiver.
