Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wind power generation technology, specifically a Magnus turbine wind turbine and its design method. Background Technology
[0002] When a fluid flows around a rotating cylindrical or spherical obstacle, the rotating object experiences a lateral force. This lateral force is actually a lift phenomenon caused by the difference in fluid velocity on both sides of the cylinder—the Magnus effect. The resulting lateral force is called the Magnus effect force or Magnus (lift) force. Currently, many devices generate electricity using the Magnus principle. For example, patent publication number CN103717884A, patent name: Vertical Axis Magnus Wind Turbine, has a complex mechanism, requires an independent drive motor, needs a control baffle during operation, and lacks relevant theoretical support. There is also patent publication number CN104500346A, patent name: A Combined Magnus Wind Turbine, which includes a three-bladed Magnus wind turbine. It replaces the turbine blades with cylinders, and drives the blades to rotate around their own axis through the contact between the wind turbine key limit roller and the main shaft. This method has certain structural advantages, but the transmission ratio of this structure is limited and cannot meet the high speed requirements of the Magnus cylinder. Summary of the Invention

[0107] According to the law of conservation of energy, dr On the toroidal surface at a certain height, the wind energy loss is the same as the power absorbed by the cylinder, that is:
[0108] ;
[0109] Then we have:
[0110] ;
[0111] (1);
[0112] in,
[0113] (2);
[0114] The ratio of the tangential velocity on the surface of the rotating cylinder to the relative velocity of the incoming flow is called the tangential velocity ratio, which can be expressed as follows based on the velocity relationship:
[0115] (3);
[0116] ω 2 represents the rotational speed of the cylinder, in rad / s.
[0117] Example: Take a smooth cylinder as an example.

[0122] (1);
[0123] d / r can be obtained by dividing d / R by r / R;
[0124] Step 3: Select a ratio of cylinder spin speed to turbine speed. ω 2 / ω =50, according to formula (3), the tangential velocity ratio can be obtained. a At different radii r Distribution curve at such location, such as Figure 9 As shown;
[0125] (3);
[0126] Step 4: Based on the tangential velocity ratio a Based on the distribution and formula (4), the lift coefficient is calculated. C L At different radii r Distribution at location;
[0127] (4);
[0128] In the above formula (4), ;
[0129] ;
[0130] In this example, we take d2=d, i.e., δ=0, and C1=2.5, C2=50, C3=2.
[0131] Step 5: First iteration, select the relaxation factor. x =0.5, repeat steps 2 to 4, and obtain the cylinder diameter according to formula (5). d At different radii r Distribution curve at such location, such as Figure 10 As shown;
[0132] (5);
[0133] ,
[0134] x It is a relaxation factor;
[0135] The second iteration yields the cylinder diameter. d At different radii r Distribution curve at such location, such as Figure 11 As shown;
[0136] The third iteration yielded the cylinder diameter. d At different radii r Distribution curve at such location, such as Figure 12 As shown;
[0137] Compared to the second iteration, it can be seen that d The change is already very small, and it can be considered converged. And from... d From the distribution, the results are almost all of equal diameter. Based on the values obtained from the results... d / R =0.0535.
[0138] Step 6: Substitute the actual design diameter R = 1m and wind speed v ∞ = 2m / s, to obtain the specific cylinder diameter d = 0.0535 R =53.5mm, ω = λv ∞ / R = 5rad / s, cylinder rotation speed ω 2 = 50 ω = 250 rad / s.
[0139] The calculations show that the Magnus effect cylinder has a moderate diameter and a relatively high rotational speed, making it suitable for high-speed generators and thus significantly reducing the generator's size. Furthermore, when using a Magnus effect cylinder instead of traditional wind turbine blades, the lift-to-drag ratio must be considered; a higher lift-to-drag ratio ensures higher operating efficiency for the Magnus wind turbine. The optimal lift-to-drag ratio for the Magnus effect cylinder is within the range of a tangential velocity ratio α = 1.5 to 3. Figure 13 The tangential velocity ratio distribution of the final calculation results is given. Figure 13 The tangential velocity ratio distribution map of the final calculation results in the example is shown below. Figure 13 As can be seen, the Magnus wind turbine of this design operates within the range of the optimal tangential velocity ratio in most areas at different radii.
