DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, 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 some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0019] In the related art, the electrical parameters of the operation of each fan are generally monitored in the background. When the operation of the fan is monitored to be abnormal, the fan blade is maintained. The situation of the fan blade when suffering from lightning strike cannot be monitored in time.

[0020] Therefore, an embodiment of the present application provides a fan blade lightning strike monitoring system. The electric field data in the environment where the fan blade is located is collected through an electric field sensor. The sound wave data in the environment where the fan blade is located is collected through an acoustic sensor. The vibration data of the fan blade is collected based on a vibration sensor. The lightning strike situation of the fan blade is identified by a lightning strike monitoring module according to the electric field data, the sound wave data and the vibration data. The lightning strike identification result of the fan blade is obtained. High-precision and real-time monitoring of the lightning strike of the fan blade is realized. A reliable basis is provided for timely maintenance measures.

[0021] In the present embodiment, a fan blade lightning strike monitoring system is provided, Figure 1 is a principle block diagram of a fan blade lightning strike monitoring system according to an embodiment of the present application, asFigure 1 As shown, the system comprises: an electric field sensor 101, an acoustic sensor 102, a vibration sensor 103, and a lightning strike monitoring module 104. The electric field sensor 101 is arranged at a first preset position of the fan blade, and is configured to collect electric field data in an environment where the fan blade is located.

[0022] Exemplarily, the electric field sensor 101 is a device for detecting the electric field intensity and its change in space. In the fan blade lightning strike monitoring system, it provides a key signal for lightning strike event judgment by capturing the instantaneous strong electric field disturbance when lightning strikes. The electric field data can be an electric signal collected by the electric field sensor. The electric field sensor 101 can include but is not limited to a capacitive electric field sensor. The capacitive electric field sensor is composed of a capacitor formed by two polar plates. Under the action of an external electric field, an electric charge proportional to the electric field intensity is induced on the polar plate. The electric field intensity can be deduced by measuring the change of the electric charge. In the embodiment of the present application, the first preset position needs to be close to the lightning-prone area of the blade (such as the blade tip and the edge), while avoiding mechanical damage of the sensor caused by the movement of the blade itself (such as waving and twisting). When installing, the sensor sensing surface is ensured to face the “possible lightning strike path” (such as perpendicular to the blade surface, which is convenient for capturing the space electric field). The specific content of the first preset position is not limited in the embodiment of the present application, and can be determined according to the needs by those skilled in the art.

[0023] The acoustic sensor 102 is arranged at a second preset position of the fan blade, and is configured to collect acoustic data in an environment where the fan blade is located.

[0024] Exemplarily, the acoustic sensor 102 provides a key signal in the “sound dimension” for lightning strike event judgment by capturing the instantaneous impact sound wave when lightning strikes, which is complementary to the electric field (electromagnetic characteristics) and vibration (mechanical impact) signals. The acoustic sensor 102 can include but is not limited to a microphone, a sonar sensor, etc. When lightning occurs, the strong discharge between the cloud layer and the blade will cause violent air ionization and explosion, generating instantaneous strong impact sound waves (thunder). The frequency usually covers a wide frequency range (from low frequency to high frequency), and the intensity is much higher than the environmental noise (such as blade rotation sound, wind sound, equipment running sound, etc.) during normal operation of the fan. The acoustic sensor detects this “specific sound signal” and converts it into an electric signal that can be analyzed, providing a basis for lightning strike judgment. The second preset position needs to be close to the lightning-prone area of the blade (such as the blade tip and the edge), but should not be directly exposed to the airflow impact path of the blade rotation (to reduce wind noise interference); the second preset position can be the blade root or a position close to the blade inside the cabin, which takes into account signal capture and anti-interference (the signal-to-noise ratio of different positions needs to be tested to select the optimal installation point).

[0025] The vibration sensor 103 is arranged at a third preset position of the fan blade, and is configured to collect vibration data of the fan blade.

[0026] Exemplarily, the vibration sensor 103 provides a key signal of "mechanical dimension" for lightning strike event judgment by capturing the instantaneous mechanical impact vibration caused by lightning strike on the blade. The vibration sensor 103 can include but is not limited to a piezoelectric vibration sensor and a capacitive vibration sensor. The third preset position can be a part of the blade that is easy to be struck by lightning and has good vibration transmission (such as a blade tip or a rigid area in the middle of the blade), ensuring that the lightning impact can be effectively transmitted to the sensor (avoiding installation in a flexible area to cause signal attenuation); at the same time, it is far away from the "natural vibration node" of the blade rotation (these positions have weak normal vibration, which can mask the lightning vibration). When installed, it needs to be firmly fixed (such as bolt fastening) to avoid the interference of the vibration of the sensor itself on the measurement. The vibration data can be an electrical signal converted by the vibration sensor through the change of the distance between the plates caused by vibration.

[0027] Specifically, during the manufacturing or maintenance of the fan blade, the electric field sensor, the acoustic sensor and the vibration sensor are accurately installed at the predetermined positions of the blade according to the design requirements. It is ensured that the sensor is installed firmly, has good contact with the surface of the blade, and at the same time, it is ensured that the signal transmission line of the sensor is connected correctly and has good shielding performance, avoiding the influence of external interference on signal acquisition.

[0028] The lightning monitoring module 104 is connected with the electric field sensor 101, the acoustic sensor 102 and the vibration sensor 103 respectively, and is used for identifying the lightning strike condition of the fan blade according to the electric field data, the acoustic wave data and the vibration data, to obtain the lightning strike identification result of the fan blade.

[0029] Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the application, the alarm threshold values corresponding to the electric field data, the acoustic wave data and the vibration data are obtained, and if at least two of the electric field data, the acoustic wave data and the vibration data are greater than the corresponding alarm threshold values, it is determined that the fan blade is struck by lightning.

[0030] The fan blade lightning monitoring system provided by the embodiment includes an electric field sensor, an acoustic sensor, a vibration sensor and a lightning monitoring module. The electric field data in the environment where the fan blade is located is collected by the electric field sensor, the acoustic wave data in the environment where the fan blade is located is collected by the acoustic sensor, the vibration data of the fan blade is collected based on the vibration sensor, and the lightning monitoring module is used to identify the lightning strike condition of the fan blade according to the electric field data, the acoustic wave data and the vibration data, to obtain the lightning strike identification result of the fan blade, so as to realize high-precision and real-time monitoring of the lightning strike of the fan blade and provide a reliable basis for timely maintenance measures.

[0031] In some optional embodiments, the system further includes a warning module; the warning module is connected with the lightning monitoring module and is used for generating alarm information based on the lightning identification result.

[0032] Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present application, when it is determined that the fan blade is struck by lightning, the pre-warning module is triggered to generate alarm information to inform the operation and maintenance personnel, and the lightning strike condition can be further confirmed in combination with other information, such as meteorological data.

[0033] According to the embodiment of the present application, a fan blade lightning strike monitoring method embodiment is provided.

[0034] In the embodiment, a fan blade lightning strike monitoring method is also provided, which can be used in the fan blade lightning strike monitoring system described above, Figure 2 is a flowchart of the fan blade lightning strike monitoring method according to the embodiment of the present application, as Figure 2 shown, the flow includes the following steps: Step S201, obtaining electric field data in the environment where the fan blade is located, sound wave data in the environment where the fan blade is located, and vibration data of the fan blade.

The specific way of feature extraction in the embodiment of the present application is not limited, and the person skilled in the art can determine it according to the needs.

[0037] Step S203, inputting the first features, the second features and the third features into a pre-constructed blade lightning strike probability recognition model to make the blade lightning strike probability recognition model output a target probability of the fan blade being struck by lightning.

[0038] Exemplarily, the blade lightning strike probability identification model is used to represent the association between the first feature, the second feature, the third feature and the target probability. In the embodiment of the present application, the blade lightning strike probability identification model can be obtained by constructing a machine learning model. The first feature is extracted by collecting the preset electric field sensor in the blade. When the lightning current passes through, the electric field sensor collects the magnetic field induced current and transmits it to the module to obtain the first feature. The second feature is extracted by collecting the preset acoustic sensor in the blade. The lightning sound wave is collected and converted into a digital signal and transmitted to the module to obtain the second feature. The third feature is extracted by collecting the preset vibration sensor in the blade. The impact generated by the lightning strike is collected by the preset vibration sensor in the blade, and the vibration signal is converted into a digital signal and transmitted to the module to obtain the third feature.

[0039] Step S204, judging whether the fan blade is struck by lightning based on the target probability to obtain the lightning strike identification result of the fan blade.

[0040] Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present application, if the target probability is greater than the preset probability threshold, it is considered that the fan blade is struck by lightning. The specific content of the preset probability threshold is not limited in the embodiment of the present application, and can be determined by the person skilled in the art according to the requirement.

[0041] The fan blade lightning strike monitoring method provided in the embodiment extracts the features from the electric field data, the sound wave data and the vibration data, inputs the extracted features into the blade lightning strike probability identification model constructed in advance, so that the blade lightning strike probability identification model outputs the target probability of the fan blade struck by lightning. The target probability is used to judge whether the fan blade is struck by lightning, and the lightning strike identification result of the fan blade is obtained. The high-precision and real-time monitoring of the fan blade lightning strike is realized, and reliable basis is provided for timely maintenance measures.

[0042] In the embodiment, a fan blade lightning strike monitoring method is provided, which can be used in the fan blade lightning strike monitoring system described above, Figure 3 is a flowchart of the fan blade lightning strike monitoring method according to the embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 , the flowchart includes the following steps: Step S301, obtaining the electric field data in the environment where the fan blade is located, the sound wave data in the environment where the fan blade is located and the vibration data of the fan blade.

[0043] Step S302, respectively extracting the features of the electric field data, the sound wave data and the vibration data to obtain the first feature of the electric field data, the second feature of the sound wave data and the third feature of the vibration data.

[0044] Step S303, inputting the first feature, the second feature, and the third feature into a pre-constructed blade lightning strike probability recognition model, so that the blade lightning strike probability recognition model outputs a target probability of the wind turbine blade suffering from lightning strike.

[0045] In some optional embodiments, the blade lightning strike probability recognition model is constructed through the following steps: Step a1, obtaining a blade state data set and lightning strike probabilities of each blade state data in the blade state data set, the blade state data being obtained by feature extraction on electric field data in an environment where the wind turbine blade is located, sound wave data in the environment where the wind turbine blade is located, and vibration data of the wind turbine blade.

[0046] Illustratively, in the embodiments of the present application, the lightning strike probability corresponding to each blade state data can be determined by analyzing historical data. The electric field data in an environment where the wind turbine blade is located, the sound wave data in the environment where the wind turbine blade is located, and the vibration data of the wind turbine blade are subjected to feature extraction, and the feature extraction results are taken as the blade state data.

[0047] Step a2, associating each blade state data with the lightning strike probability to obtain an association data set.

[0048] Illustratively, the specific association method is not limited in the embodiments of the present application, as long as it is reasonable.

[0049] Step a3, training a pre-set machine learning model using the association data set to obtain the blade lightning strike probability recognition model.

[0050] Illustratively, the pre-set machine learning model is trained using the association data set until the accuracy of the model meets a pre-set requirement to obtain the blade lightning strike probability recognition model. The pre-set requirement can be determined according to requirements, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0051] Step S304, determining whether the wind turbine blade suffers from lightning strike based on the target probability to obtain a lightning strike recognition result of the wind turbine blade.

[0052] Specifically, the above step S304 includes: Step S3041, if the target probability is greater than a pre-set threshold, it is determined that the wind turbine blade suffers from lightning strike.

[0053] Step S3042, if the target probability is less than or equal to the pre-set threshold, it is determined that the wind turbine blade does not suffer from lightning strike.

When determining the peak vibration acceleration (PeakAcceleration) according to the vibration data, the electric signal (such as voltage) collected by the vibration sensor is converted into the acceleration physical quantity, and then the maximum absolute value in the effective time window is extracted to obtain the peak vibration acceleration.
