Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic technology, specifically to methods, devices, equipment, media, and products for predicting the icing status of wind turbine blades. Background Technology
[0002] Wind turbine icing monitoring is a crucial link in the safe production, economic operation, and intelligent upgrading of wind farms. Its core value lies in preventing accidents, reducing losses, and optimizing efficiency. Related technologies generally rely on manual inspections and a small number of fixed-location sensors for wind turbine icing detection. Manual inspections are limited by time and space, making it impossible to grasp the icing situation of the entire wind farm in real time and comprehensively. Furthermore, inspection personnel face personal safety risks when working in inclement weather. The number of fixed sensors is insufficient to cover all critical parts of the wind turbine, leaving blind spots in monitoring icing conditions at special locations such as the edges of the turbine blades and high points of the tower. In addition, both manual inspections and sensor detection can only detect icing problems after they occur. Icing has adverse effects on wind turbine operation, such as power reduction and abnormal vibration. Taking appropriate measures after icing problems occur may lead to economic losses, and the wind turbine equipment also faces a significant risk of damage. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] In related technologies, wind turbine icing detection generally relies on manual inspections and a small number of fixed-location sensors. Manual inspections are limited by time and space, making it impossible to grasp the icing situation of the entire wind farm in real time and comprehensively. Furthermore, inspection personnel face safety risks when working in inclement weather. The number of fixed sensors is insufficient to cover all critical parts of the wind turbine, leaving blind spots in monitoring icing conditions at special locations such as blade edges and high points on the tower. In addition, both manual inspections and sensor detection only issue alarms after icing problems occur. Icing has adverse effects on wind turbine operation, such as power reduction and abnormal vibration. Waiting until icing problems occur to issue warnings and take corresponding measures may result in economic losses and expose the wind turbine equipment to a significant risk of damage.
[0022] In view of this, the wind turbine blade icing state prediction method provided in this application embodiment can be applied to a server to predict the icing state of wind turbine blades. The method provided in this application embodiment inputs target meteorological data into a pre-constructed wind turbine blade icing state identification model, so that the wind turbine blade icing state identification model outputs icing state data of the wind turbine blades. The wind turbine blade icing state identification model is used to characterize the correlation between the meteorological data of the wind turbine's environment and the icing state data of the wind turbine blades, realizing the prediction of the wind turbine's icing state under target meteorological conditions. This facilitates maintenance personnel to take corresponding measures in advance to deal with icing problems, solving the problem in related technologies that only detect and alarm after icing problems occur, and cannot predict the icing state in advance.
[0023] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for predicting the icing state of wind turbine blades is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.
[0024] This embodiment provides a method for predicting the icing state of wind turbine blades, which can be used in the aforementioned server. Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a wind turbine blade icing state prediction method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the process includes the following steps: Step S101: Obtain target meteorological data of the environment where the wind turbine is located.
[0025] For example, the wind turbine can be a wind turbine unit that requires icing state prediction, and the target meteorological data can include, but is not limited to, meteorological forecast data of the environment where the wind turbine is located for a future target period. The meteorological forecast data can include, but is not limited to, temperature and humidity. The embodiments of this application do not limit the specific content of the target period, which can be determined by those skilled in the art according to their needs.
[0026] Step S102: Input the target meteorological data into the pre-constructed wind turbine blade icing state identification model, so that the wind turbine blade icing state identification model outputs the icing state data of the wind turbine blades. The wind turbine blade icing state identification model is used to characterize the correlation between the meteorological data of the wind turbine's environment and the icing state data of the wind turbine blades. The icing state data may include, but is not limited to, the thickness and type of icing, and the icing type may include, but is not limited to, frost ice, rime ice, mixed ice, and ice-free.
[0027] For example, in this embodiment of the application, a preset model can be trained using a training set, enabling the preset model to learn the correlation between meteorological data and icing state data, thereby obtaining a pre-constructed wind turbine blade icing state recognition model. The preset model may include, but is not limited to, a deep learning model. This embodiment of the application does not limit the specific content of the preset model, and those skilled in the art can determine it according to their needs.
[0028] The wind turbine blade icing state prediction method provided in this embodiment inputs target meteorological data into a pre-constructed wind turbine blade icing state identification model, so that the wind turbine blade icing state identification model outputs icing state data of the wind turbine blades. The wind turbine blade icing state identification model is used to characterize the correlation between the meteorological data of the wind turbine's environment and the icing state data of the wind turbine blades, realizing the prediction of the wind turbine's icing state under the target meteorological conditions. This facilitates maintenance personnel to take corresponding measures in advance to deal with icing problems, and solves the problem in related technologies that only detect and alarm after icing problems occur, but cannot predict the icing state in advance.
[0029] This embodiment provides a method for predicting the icing state of wind turbine blades, which can be used in the aforementioned server. Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a wind turbine blade icing state prediction method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps: Step S201: Obtain target meteorological data for the environment where the wind turbine is located. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 Step S101 of the illustrated embodiment will not be described again here.
[0030] Step S202: Input the target meteorological data into the pre-constructed wind turbine blade icing state identification model so that the wind turbine blade icing state identification model outputs the icing state data of the wind turbine blade. The wind turbine blade icing state identification model is used to characterize the correlation between the meteorological data of the wind turbine's environment and the icing state data of the wind turbine blade.
[0031] In some alternative implementations, the wind turbine blade icing status identification model is constructed through the following steps: Step a1: Obtain multiple meteorological data of the environment where the wind turbine is located, as well as the icing status data corresponding to each meteorological data.
[0032] For example, multiple meteorological data can be meteorological data of the environment where the wind turbine is located at different historical periods, and icing status data can be determined based on icing monitoring data. Icing monitoring data can include, but is not limited to, radar inversion water vapor information, micrometeorology, blade icing images, etc.
[0033] Step a2 involves associating each meteorological data with its corresponding icing status data to obtain an associated dataset.
[0034] For example, the embodiments of this application do not limit the way meteorological data and icing status data are associated. Those skilled in the art can determine the method according to their needs, as long as the association can be achieved.
[0035] Step a3: Train the preset model using the associated dataset until the model accuracy meets the preset conditions to obtain the wind turbine blade icing status recognition model.
[0036] For example, the preset model may include, but is not limited to, a deep learning model, and the preset conditions may be determined based on experience.
[0037] In some alternative implementations, icing status data is obtained through the following steps: Step b1: Obtain the first icing monitoring data and the second icing monitoring data collected by the preset monitoring equipment.
[0038] For example, in the embodiments of this application, the first icing monitoring data may include, but is not limited to, radar inversion water vapor information and micro-meteorological information, and the second icing monitoring data may include, but is not limited to, icing image data.
[0039] Step b2: Input the first icing monitoring data into the icing thickness identification model so that the icing thickness identification model outputs icing thickness data.
[0040] For example, in this embodiment of the application, historical lightning-induced water vapor information and micro-meteorological information are used as training samples, and ice thickness is used as the output to train a convolutional neural network enhanced Transformer (CNN++Transformer) model to obtain an ice thickness recognition model.
[0041] Step b3: Input the second icing monitoring data into the icing type identification model so that the icing type identification model outputs icing type data.
[0042] For example, in this embodiment of the application, images of icing on leaves collected by a camera, drone or sensor are used as training data, and the icing type, such as frost, rime, mixed ice or no ice, is used as the output to train the CNN model to obtain an icing type recognition model.
[0043] Step b3: Determine the icing status data based on the icing thickness data and icing type data.
[0044] For example, in this embodiment of the application, ice thickness data and ice type data are used as ice status data.
[0045] Step S203: Obtain the basic data and design parameters of the wind turbine blades.
[0046] For example, in this embodiment of the application, a sensor is set at a preset position on the wind turbine blade, and the basic data of the wind turbine blade and the design parameters of the wind turbine blade are obtained through the sensor.
[0047] The sensor locations and corresponding sensors include: In the blade root region, strain sensors are installed to monitor bending and torsional stresses; a fiber Bragg grating sensor array is used for distributed monitoring of temperature and strain distribution. In the blade tip region, accelerometers are used for high-frequency vibration monitoring; laser displacement sensors are used for non-contact deformation measurement. At the leading and trailing edges, fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain sensors are installed to monitor aerodynamic load distribution; acoustic emission sensors are used to capture crack propagation signals.
[0048] The design parameters include: blade design parameters (geometric parameters, layup angle, material rigidity matrix) and manufacturing process data.
[0049] Step S204: Construct a digital twin model of the wind turbine based on basic data and design parameters. The digital twin model includes a geometric model, a structural dynamics model, an aerodynamic model, a thermodynamic model, and an early warning model. The geometric model is used to characterize the three-dimensional digital mapping of the wind turbine. The structural dynamics model is used to simulate the mechanical response of the wind turbine under load. The aerodynamic model is used to calculate the aerodynamic characteristics of the wind turbine blades in the airflow. The thermodynamic model is used to simulate the internal heat transfer process of the wind turbine. The early warning model is used to issue early warnings based on the output information of the structural dynamics model, the aerodynamic model, the thermodynamic model, and the icing status data.
[0050] For example, in this embodiment of the application, a geometric model and a functional model of a digital twin of a wind farm are constructed using basic data and the geometric parameters of the wind turbine blades. The functional model includes a structural dynamics model, an aerodynamic model, a thermodynamic model, and an early warning model. Stiffness, mass, and damping matrices are established based on the Finite Element Method (FEA), and assembled into an overall structural dynamics equation. Solving this equation yields the displacement, stress, and strain responses of the wind turbine structure under various loads. The aerodynamic model of the wind turbine blades is a mathematical or physical model used to describe and predict the aerodynamic characteristics exhibited by the wind turbine blades in the airflow. The aerodynamic model of the wind turbine blades is constructed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). CFD is used to simulate the fluid flow inside and around the wind turbine, including airflow velocity and pressure distribution, while the thermodynamic model is used to describe the heat exchange between the fluid and the solid, as well as the heat conduction process within the solid. By coupling these two models, the effects of fluid flow on heat transfer (such as forced convection heat transfer) and the effects of heat transfer on fluid properties and flow state (such as density changes caused by thermal expansion) are considered, achieving a more accurate simulation. For the solid components of the wind turbine (such as blades and hubs), a thermodynamic model is established based on the thermophysical properties of their materials (such as thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity, and density). At a fixed time step, information such as fluid velocity, temperature, and pressure calculated by the CFD model is transferred to the thermodynamic model, while the temperature distribution information of the solid components calculated by the thermodynamic model is fed back to the CFD model.
[0051] In this embodiment, the geometric model is a three-dimensional geometric representation created based on parameters such as blade length, chord length distribution, and twist angle distribution, and a finite element mesh is generated. The aerodynamic model employs a combination of Blade Element Momentum Theory (BEM) and CFD. First, the basic aerodynamic loads are calculated using BEM, then corrected using CFD, considering the impact of blade deformation on aerodynamic performance. The thermodynamic model, coupled with the CFD model, calculates heat exchange between the fluid and solid, considering convection, conduction, and radiation, and simulates the blade temperature distribution. The structural dynamics model constructs the mass matrix, stiffness matrix, and damping matrix based on the finite element method, solving for the displacement and stress response of the structure under aerodynamic loads, temperature loads, and icing loads. The early warning model monitors parameters such as stress, temperature, icing thickness, and displacement in real time, triggering corresponding levels of warnings when thresholds are exceeded. This implementation adopts a modular design, with data exchange between models via interfaces, supporting multiphysics coupled simulations. You can adapt to different types of wind turbines and simulation requirements by modifying the configuration file.
[0052] Step S205: Input the icing status data into the digital twin model so that the digital twin model can simulate the operating status of the wind turbine based on the icing status data and obtain simulation information.
[0053] Specifically, step S205 above includes: Step c1: Input the icing state data into the pre-built icing texture feature determination model to obtain the icing texture feature data of the wind turbine blade. The icing texture feature determination model is used to characterize the correlation between the icing state data and the icing texture feature data of the wind turbine blade.
[0054] For example, in this embodiment of the application, the ice thickness and ice type are used as inputs to a pre-trained data-driven model, and the output is ice texture feature values. The preset network model is then trained to obtain an ice texture feature determination model.
[0055] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the application, the ice texture feature data can also be determined by a pre-set relationship table between ice thickness, ice type and ice texture features, as shown in Table 1 below.
[0056] Table 1
[0057] Step c2: Input the icing state data and icing texture feature data into the digital twin model so that the digital twin model can output simulation information.
[0058] For example, in this embodiment of the application, the icing state of the wind turbine blades is simulated on a digital twin model of the wind turbine blades based on the icing texture features to obtain simulation information.
[0059] Step S206: Send the simulation information to the display terminal for display.
[0060] For example, the display terminal can be a terminal device with display function. The specific content of the display terminal is not limited in the embodiments of this application, and those skilled in the art can determine it according to their needs.
[0061] In some optional implementations, the early warning model issues an early warning through the following steps: Step d1: Obtain the structural feature data output by the structural dynamics model, the aerodynamic feature data output by the aerodynamic model, and the thermodynamic feature data output by the thermodynamic model.
[0062] For example, structural characteristic data may include, but is not limited to, peak blade stress, tower vibration acceleration, and blade deformation. Aerodynamic characteristic data may include, but is not limited to, power loss values. Thermodynamic characteristic data may include, but is not limited to, bearing temperature and gearbox oil temperature difference.
[0063] In this embodiment, the structural dynamics model receives information on the distribution and thickness of icing. Icing increases the blade's mass and alters its center of gravity, thus affecting the blade's vibration characteristics and structural response. Icing information is integrated into the input parameters of the structural dynamics model via an interface, taking the impact of icing into account when calculating the blade's moment of inertia and mass distribution. An icing state identification model transmits information such as the geometry and surface roughness of the icing to the aerodynamic model. Based on this information, the aerodynamic model adjusts the blade's airfoil parameters and aerodynamic coefficients to more accurately simulate the interaction between the airflow and the blade. The icing process involves heat exchange; the icing state identification model provides information on the thickness and type of icing. The thermodynamic model uses this information to calculate the ice growth and melting rates, as well as the heat transfer process between the blade and the ice.
[0064] Step d2: Determine the first risk value based on the icing status data.
[0065] For example, in this embodiment of the application, a first risk value is determined based on the severity and development trend of icing.
[0066] Step d3: Determine the second risk value based on the structural feature data.
[0067] For example, in this embodiment of the application, a second risk value is determined based on the stress and deformation output by the structural dynamics model.
[0068] Step d4: Determine the third risk value based on aerodynamic characteristic data.
[0069] For example, in this embodiment of the application, a third risk value is determined based on the power loss output by the aerodynamic model.
[0070] Step d5: Determine the fourth risk value based on thermodynamic characteristic data.
[0071] For example, in this embodiment of the application, a fourth risk value is determined based on the bearing temperature and the gearbox oil temperature difference.
[0072] Step d6: Determine the target risk value based on the first risk value, the second risk value, the third risk value, and the fourth risk value.
[0073] For example, in this embodiment of the application, the first risk value, the second risk value, the third risk value and the fourth risk value are weighted and summed to obtain the target risk value.
[0074] Step d7: If the target risk value is greater than the preset threshold, issue an early warning on the operating status of the wind turbine.
[0075] For example, the specific content of the preset threshold is not limited in the embodiments of this application. Those skilled in the art can determine it according to their needs, as long as it is reasonable.
