Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of offshore wind power engineering equipment, in particular to a floating offshore wind power combined impressed current protection device. Background Art

[0002] The buoyancy foundation of offshore wind power is mainly composed of steel structure, and its cathodic protection is crucial. A traditional offshore wind turbine adopts an impressed current cathodic protection system, which has problems such as high cost, numerous equipment, large maintenance workload, and inconvenient maintenance. The floating offshore wind power combined impressed current protection device is designed to solve the above problems. Through a special design, it realizes the joint protection of multiple floating offshore wind turbines. The device includes a constant potential meter and an auxiliary anode, wherein the negative pole of the constant potential meter is connected to multiple floating offshore wind turbines, and the positive pole is connected to the auxiliary anode. The distance from the auxiliary anode to each floating offshore wind turbine is equal to ensure the uniformity of current distribution.

[0003] Offshore wind turbines are prone to over-protection and under-protection areas. When using remote auxiliary anodes, the auxiliary anodes are far away from the offshore wind turbines, and the fan-shaped current coverage is large. It is easy to overlap with the fan-shaped current of the adjacent auxiliary anodes, resulting in the adjacent offshore wind turbines being covered therein, causing DC interference to the protection circuits of other offshore wind turbines. Based on these problems, Chinese patent CN216786259U discloses a combined impressed current protection device for multiple floating offshore wind turbines, which shares a constant potentiostat and auxiliary anodes for multiple floating offshore wind turbines. The number of equipment is greatly reduced, the cost is significantly reduced, and the subsequent maintenance and inspection are simple, convenient and fast. The equal distance from the auxiliary anode to each floating offshore wind turbine ensures that the current distribution in each cathodic protection circuit is uniform and stable. The reduction in the number of auxiliary anodes also allows the distance between two adjacent auxiliary anodes to be larger, and there will be no overlap in the fan-shaped current coverage, solving the problem of DC interference.

[0004] Since the floating offshore wind turbine is not equipped with a limit and protection mechanism, it is easy for the floating offshore wind turbine to topple over or drift out of the designated range when encountering huge waves and typhoons. It may also cause the marine engineering cable to break, seriously affecting the stability and safety of the offshore wind turbine. Utility Model Content
