Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to ocean engineering and structure damping control equipment technical field especially relates to a two -way rolling pendulum type tuned mass damper. BACKGROUND
[0002] Wind energy is renewable, clean and abundant, and has developed rapidly in recent years. With the progress of wind power technology, the single machine capacity and tower height are increasing. In addition, the wind turbine operates in a complex environment, and is affected by the combined action of wind, wave, flow and other dynamic loads. Its structural safety and fatigue problem is increasingly prominent, and it also affects the normal operation of the wind turbine generator, aggravates the fatigue load of each part and shortens the service life.
[0003] The installation of the vibration control system can effectively reduce the dynamic response of the structure, reduce the damage of the component and enhance the disaster resistance. Studies have shown that the tuned mass damper (TMD) has a significant damping effect on structural wind vibration and earthquake. TMD does not rely on external energy operation, and absorbs and transmits vibration energy from the structure through the coordinated action of mass, stiffness and damping elements.
[0004] Traditional TMD usually needs additional stiffness elements (such as springs, tracks, etc.), and relies on viscous fluid damper to dissipate energy. Not only the mechanical connection is complex, but also there is a risk of liquid leakage. Compared with the traditional TMD, the pendulum TMD can provide restoring stiffness through gravity, saving stiffness elements, but it has a high demand for vertical space. High-soft structure often needs to occupy too much vertical space. The friction pendulum TMD constructed by combining the friction pendulum vibration isolation support and the TMD effectively solves the problem of too much vertical space occupation of the pendulum TMD, but its energy dissipation capacity improved by friction damping is limited under large load environment, and increasing damping force needs to increase the mass block, thereby affecting the sensitivity of the damper.

[0046] In the embodiment, in order to effectively reduce the acceleration response of the wind turbine, the optimal tuning parameters of the bidirectional rolling pendulum tuned mass damper can be calculated by the classical Den-Hartog formula derived based on the fixed point theory.
[0047]

[0050]
[0051] wherein g is the acceleration of gravity, and R is the track radius of the sliding support in the bidirectional rolling pendulum tuned mass damper.
