Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wind power generation, and in particular to a blade heating and conductive prefabricated part, a blade, and a wind power generator set. Background Art
[0002] In freezing rain and extremely low temperature areas, when ice forms on the surface of wind turbine blades, it will change the aerodynamic shape, reduce aerodynamic efficiency, and cause power generation loss. Therefore, it is often necessary to heat the blades to achieve the purpose of de-icing.
[0003] In the prior art, heating materials are placed on the surface of the blade. This process is generally added during the production of the blade, and the heating materials are integrated into the shell of the blade. However, for in-service blades, when setting heating materials on the surface, it is necessary to consider the reliable combination of the heating materials and the original blade structure. Generally, resin hand lay-up or vacuum suction injection is used. When the hand lay-up solution is adopted, because the flatness of the surface cannot be guaranteed, the aerodynamic shape will be uneven, resulting in power generation loss. Therefore, the conventional method in the industry is to use the vacuum suction injection method. This method requires the placement of materials on the surface of the blade, the vacuum suction injection system, the infusion, the heating curing, the outer surface paint repair and other processes. All of the above operations need to be completed on site, the operation time is long, and there are different operating difficulties in each stage, which is prone to manufacturing defects. The laying of the blade surface material needs to ensure the flatness of each layer to prevent the surface from being uneven. The vacuum suction injection system requires operations such as making rubber strips and vacuum bags on site. And during the curing period (at least 3 hours), the vacuum system cannot leak, otherwise it will affect the infusion effect. Based on the above operational difficulties, if the operation is carried out at high altitude, the operation hours and difficulty will be further increased. The increase in operation hours causes an increase in downtime, which also seriously affects the power generation of the unit. Summary of the invention

[0036] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of the present invention will be described in detail below. In the detailed description below, many specific details are proposed in order to provide a comprehensive understanding of the present invention. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is only to provide a better understanding of the present invention by illustrating examples of the present invention. In the drawings and the following description, at least part of the known structures and technologies are not shown in order to avoid unnecessary ambiguity of the present invention; and, for clarity, the size of some structures may be exaggerated. In addition, the features, structures or characteristics described below may be combined in one or more embodiments in any suitable manner.
[0037] The directional words appearing in the following description are all directions shown in the figures, and do not limit the specific structure of the blade heating and conductive preform, blade, and wind turbine generator set of the present invention. In the description of the present invention, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0038] In order to better understand the present invention, Figures 1 to 7 The blade heating and conductive preform, blade, and wind turbine generator set according to the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail.
[0039] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a blade 100 is proposed, which has a blade root 101 and a blade tip 102. The blade 100 includes a shell 10, a heating preform 20 and a conductive preform 30. The shell 10 has an inner cavity, and the shell 10 includes an inner surface facing the inner cavity and an outer surface facing away from the inner cavity; the heating preform 20 is laid on at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface and connected to the shell 10, and the first protective portion 23 covers the heating portion 21 on the shell 10; the heating preform 20 is configured to provide heat to the shell 10; the conductive preform 30 is arranged on the shell 10, and the conductive portion thereof has a first terminal and a second terminal, the first terminal is electrically connected to the heating preform 20, and the second terminal is configured to be connected to a power source to guide current to the heating portion 21 and heat the shell 10.
[0040] In this embodiment, the shell 10 and the heating preform 20 of the blade 100 are two independent structures and are molded separately. After the shell 10 is molded by the infusion process, the prefabricated heating preform 20 is laid on the surface of the shell 10 so that the two form a stable connection to obtain the final blade 100 structure. The shell 10 is heated by the heating capacity of the heating preform 20, thereby achieving a de-icing effect on the surface of the shell 10.
[0041] Among them, the shell 10 has a relative inner surface and an outer surface. After the prefabricated heating preform 20 is obtained, it can be laid on the inner surface or the outer surface. Usually, laying the heating preform 20 on the outer surface has a better deicing effect. This is because when the external temperature is low, ice will usually form on the outer surface of the shell 10. The heating preform 20 on the outer surface can directly heat the ice. When the heating preform 20 is laid on the inner surface, the heat generated still needs to be conducted by the shell 10, which will cause partial heat loss and is not conducive to heat conduction. Therefore, the deicing effect is not good.
[0042] Optionally, the heating preform 20 is usually heated electrically, and a conductive preform 30 needs to be arranged in the shell 10 to supply power to the heating preform 20. The present application does not specifically limit the specific position of the conductive preform 30 in the shell 10, and it is sufficient to ensure that the conductive preform 30 is electrically connected to the heating preform 20 to supply power to it.
[0043] The conductive preform 30 usually needs to be connected to the power supply inside the unit, and the first terminal of the conductive preform 30 is connected to the heating preform 20 and the second terminal is connected to the power supply, so that the current can be conducted from the power supply to the heating preform 20, and the conductive preform 30 plays the role of transmitting current.
[0044] Considering that the power source is usually located at the blade root 101, the conductive preform 30 can be arranged at a position of the shell 10 close to the blade root 101 to facilitate connection with the power source. The conductive preform 30 is usually arranged in the inner cavity of the shell 10 to form better isolation protection for the conductive preform 30. At the same time, considering the effect of airflow, the blade tip 102 of the shell 10 is more prone to ice formation than the blade root 101. Therefore, the heating preform 20 can be laid at a position close to the blade tip 102 to perform deicing more specifically.
[0045] Optionally, the position and area of the heating preform 20 can be set according to different actual needs and flexibly selected according to the actual icing conditions. The present application does not impose any special restrictions on the laying position and area size of the heating preform 20.
[0046] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which is formed by laying a heating preform 20 on the inner surface or outer surface of the shell 10 of the blade 100, so that the shell 10 and the heating preform 20 are two independent parts formed separately, thereby simplifying the molding process of the blade 100, and only needs to lay the formed heating preform 20 directly on the shell 10 for heating. On the basis of using the heat after heating to de-ice the shell 10, the reliability of the connection between the heating preform 20 and the shell 10 is improved, and the problem of unstable combination of the two due to complex process is avoided, and a better de-icing effect is achieved. At the same time, laying the heating preform 20 directly on the shell 10 after prefabrication reduces the process difficulty, improves the preparation efficiency, is also conducive to completing the operation at high altitude, has better preparation flexibility, and thus reduces the downtime of the unit, reduces the impact on the power generation of the unit, and has better economic benefits.
[0047] As an optional embodiment, the heating preform 20 and / or the conductive preform 30 are adhesively connected to at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface.
[0048] Optionally, after the shell 10 and the heating preform 20 are formed separately, the heating preform 20 can be bonded to the surface of the shell 10 using structural adhesive. This application takes bonding the heating preform 20 to the outer surface as an example for explanation.
[0049] Specifically, the structural adhesive may be first applied to the surface of the shell 10, and then the heating preform 20 may be bonded to the structural adhesive, and then it may be fixed to the surface of the shell 10 using tools such as a vacuum film or a binding strip to obtain the final blade 100 structure, so that the blade 100 has the performance of heating and deicing.
[0050] An embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which simplifies the molding process of the blade 100 by laying the heating preform 20 on the surface of the shell 10 by bonding, facilitates the preparation of the blade 100, and improves the preparation efficiency. The bonding method has higher flexibility, so that a more reliable connection is formed between the heating preform 20 and the shell 10, thereby improving the de-icing effect on the surface of the blade 100.
[0051] As an alternative embodiment, see Figure 3 The heating preform 20 includes a heating portion 21 and a first connecting portion 22 . The first connecting portion 22 and the heating portion 21 are stacked. The heating preform 20 is bonded to the shell 10 through the first connecting portion 22 , and the first terminal is electrically connected to the heating portion 21 .
[0052] As for the structure of the heating preform 20, it can be specifically formed by stacking a heating part 21 and a first connecting part 22, wherein the part that performs electrical heating is the heating part 21, and the first terminal of the conductive preform 30 is specifically electrically connected to the heating part 21 of the heating preform 20, and the electric heating process is realized after current is provided to the heating part 21.
[0053] The first connection part 22 mainly serves to contact the surface of the shell 10. By using the first connection part 22 to contact the surface of the shell 10, it is convenient to connect the preform as a whole with the shell 10, and prevents the heating part 21 from directly contacting the surface of the shell 10 and causing damage. At the same time, the first connection part 22 can form a more reliable connection with the surface of the shell 10.
[0054] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100 and a specific structural form of a heating preform 20 , so that the heating preform 20 is easy to shape and forms a more reliable connection with the shell 10 .
[0055] As an alternative embodiment, see Figure 3 The heating preform 20 further includes a first protection portion 23 , which is stacked on a side of the heating portion 21 away from the first connecting portion 22 , and the first protection portion 23 covers the heating portion 21 .
[0056] Optionally, a first protection portion 23 may be provided on the heating portion 21 , thereby forming a three-layer structure together with the heating portion 21 and the first connecting portion 22 . The first protection portion 23 covers the heating portion 21 to provide isolation and protection for the heating portion 21 .
[0057] An embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which provides another specific structural form of a heating preform 20. By setting a first protective portion 23 on the heating portion 21, a covering protection is formed for the heating portion 21 to prevent the heating portion 21 from being exposed to the external environment, thereby avoiding heat loss and preventing structural wear.
[0058] As an optional embodiment, the first connecting portion 22 and the first protecting portion 23 include glass cloth, and the heating portion 21 includes carbon fiber resistance wire.
[0059] Considering that glass cloth is more in line with the material of the shell 10, in this embodiment, the first connecting part 22 and the first protective part 23 can be set to glass cloth material, so that the heating preform 20 and the shell 10 form a more stable connection. At the same time, the heating part 21 adopts carbon fiber resistance wire, which has better electric heating efficiency. Of course, heating materials such as graphene can also be used. This application does not specifically limit the specific materials of the first connecting part 22, the first protective part 23 and the heating part 21, and can be selected according to different actual needs.
[0060] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which provides specific materials for each layer of the heating preform 20, so that the material of the heating preform 20 is more closely matched to the material of the shell 10, forming a reliable connection, while having higher heating efficiency and improving the de-icing ability of the shell 10 surface.
[0061] As an alternative embodiment, see Figure 4 The first protection portion 23 includes a first layer 24 and a second layer 25 which are stacked, and the first layer 24 is located between the second layer 25 and the heating portion 21 .
[0062] Optionally, the first protective part 23 can be set to a double-layer stacked structure of a first layer 24 and a second layer 25, with the first layer 24 forming direct contact and coverage with the heating part 21, and the second layer 25 directly covering the first layer 24, thereby achieving double isolation protection for the heating part 21.
[0063] In this embodiment, the first protection part 23 is described by taking a double-layer structure as an example, which is not limited to a stacked structure of a first layer 24 and a second layer 25 and can be adjusted according to actual needs. The present application does not specifically limit the specific structure of the first protection part 23.
[0064] An embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which forms a double-layer isolation protection for the heating part 21 by setting the first protective part 23 to a stacked structure of a first layer 24 and a second layer 25. At the same time, the heating part 21 can better transfer heat to the shell 10, reduce heat loss, and have a better de-icing effect.
[0065] As an optional embodiment, the conductive preform 30 is bonded to the housing 10 .
[0066] Optionally, like the heating preform 20 , the conductive preform 30 may be bonded to the surface of the housing 10 to achieve connection between the conductive preform 30 and the housing 10 , so that the connection of the conductive preform 30 has better stability.
[0067] The conductive preform 30 can usually be bonded to the inner surface of the housing 10, thereby isolating and protecting the conductive preform 30, and facilitating the connection between the conductive preform 30 and the power supply in the inner cavity.
[0068] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100 , which facilitates the assembly of the conductive preform 30 by bonding the conductive preform 30 to the shell 10 , simplifies the process flow, reduces the process difficulty, and forms a more stable current conduction for the heating preform 20 .
[0069] As an optional embodiment, the conductive preform 30 includes a conductive part and a second connecting part, the second connecting part and the conductive part are stacked, the conductive preform 30 is bonded to the shell 10 through the second connecting part, and the conductive part has a first connecting end and a second connecting end.
[0070] Optionally, the conductive preform 30 can also be set as a preform structure. The specific structure is that the conductive part is stacked on the second connecting part. After the preform is formed separately, the second connecting part is used to form a bond with the shell 10. Since the preform structure of the conductive preform 30 is similar to the structure of the above-mentioned heating preform 20, the specific structure of the conductive preform 30 can be referred to by analogy. Figure 3 , which is not repeated in the figure.
[0071] Specifically, the conductive part has the function of conducting current, the first terminal and the second terminal are specifically on the conductive part, and the conductive part is connected between the power source and the heating preform 20 to conduct current.
[0072] An embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which further simplifies the molding process of the shell 10 by setting the conductive preform 30 as a preform structure, and facilitates the connection between the conductive preform 30 and the heating preform 20 by bonding. The connection between the two has better stability, and the reliability of the structure is further improved.
[0073] As an optional embodiment, the conductive preform 30 further includes a second protective portion, which is stacked on a side of the conductive portion away from the second connecting portion, and covers the conductive portion.
[0074] Similarly, a second protection portion may be provided on the conductive portion, thereby forming a three-layer structure together with the conductive portion and the second connecting portion. The second protection portion covers the conductive portion to provide isolation protection for the conductive portion.
[0075] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100 and a specific structural form of a conductive preform 30. By arranging a second protective portion on the conductive portion, the conductive portion is covered and protected to prevent the conductive portion from being exposed to the external environment and prevent structural wear.
[0076] As an optional embodiment, the second connecting portion and the second protecting portion include glass cloth, and the conductive portion includes a wire.
[0077] Also considering that glass cloth is more in line with the material of the shell 10, the second connecting part and the second protective part can be set to glass cloth material in this embodiment, so that the prefabricated conductive preform 30 forms a more stable connection with the shell 10. At the same time, the conductive part adopts a wire. When the conductive preform 30 is bonded to the inner surface of the shell 10, there is no need to consider the flatness of the surface. The conductive part can adopt a round wire to facilitate the conduction of current to the heating preform 20. The present application does not make any special restrictions on the specific structural materials of the second connecting part, the second protective part and the conductive part, and can be selected according to different actual needs.
[0078] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which provides specific materials for each layer of the prefabricated conductive preform 30, so that the material of the conductive preform 30 is more closely matched to the material of the shell 10, forming a reliable connection, and further improving the reliability of the structure.
[0079] As an alternative embodiment, see Figure 5 The blade 100 includes a plurality of conductive preforms 30, the plurality of conductive preforms 30 include a first conductive preform 31 and a second conductive preform 32 connected to each other, the first conductive preform 31 is disposed in the shell 10 and located between the heating preform 20 and the second conductive preform 32, one end of the first conductive preform 31 is connected to the first terminal and the other end is connected to the heating preform 20.
[0080] Considering that when the distance between the second conductive preform 32 and the heating preform 20 is large, a direct connection cannot be achieved between the two, in order to form a stable connection between the two, a first conductive preform 31 can be arranged between the two to form a transition, thereby ensuring that the current can continue to be conducted to the heating preform 20 through the first conductive preform 31.
[0081] Optionally, since the second conductive preform 32 is usually arranged at the blade root 101 and the heating preform 20 is usually arranged at the blade tip 102, in order to achieve the transition between the two, the first conductive preform 31 can be arranged at the blade center position of the shell 10, and the specific position can be determined according to actual needs.
[0082] The first conductive preform 31 and the second conductive preform 32 have the same function of transmitting current. Different numbers of first conductive preforms 31 can be arranged according to the distance between the second conductive preform 32 and the heating preform 20 to realize current transfer and ensure that the current at the power supply can be stably transmitted to the heating preform 20.
[0083] An embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which realizes the connection between the second conductive preform 32 and the heating preform 20 by arranging the first conductive preform 31 on the shell 10, thereby overcoming the problem of being unable to directly connect the two due to the large distance between them, making the conduction of current more stable, and providing reliable guarantee for sustainable deicing capability.
[0084] As an optional embodiment, the first conductive preform 31 is bonded to the housing 10 .
[0085] Optionally, the first conductive preform 31 may also be connected to the housing 10 by bonding, which facilitates the assembly of the first conductive preform 31 and has better stability.
[0086] Optionally, the first conductive preform 31 can be bonded to the inner surface or the outer surface of the housing 10 according to different requirements, as long as it can form a connection with the second conductive preform 32 and the heating preform 20 .
[0087] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blade 100, which is connected to the shell 10 by bonding, thereby simplifying the process flow, facilitating reliable connection between the two, and having better structural stability.
[0088] As an optional embodiment, the first conductive preform 31 can also be set as a preform structure. The specific structure is also to stack the conductive part on the second connecting part. After obtaining a separately formed preform, the second connecting part is used to form a bond with the shell 10. Since the preform structure of the first conductive preform 31 is similar to the structure of the above-mentioned heating preform 20, the specific structure of the first conductive preform 31 can be referred to by analogy. Figure 3 , which is not repeated in the figure.
