TECHNICAL FIELD
[0003] The present application relates to the field of turbulence intensity evaluation, in particular to a method and system for evaluating effective turbulence intensity of a wind farm. BACKGROUND
[0004] Wind resources are important comprehensive indicators for representing the wind energy conditions of a region in the wind power industry, including turbulence intensity, average wind speed, wind shear, extreme wind speed, and other parameters. Currently, wind turbine generators have shown a clear trend of long blades, high towers, and low costs. Turbulence intensity, as one of the key input parameters for the design of wind turbine generators, directly affects the fatigue, limit load of the entire wind turbine generator, subsystems, and components, and indirectly affects the power generation performance, safety performance, and cost of the wind turbine generator. Therefore, how to accurately obtain the turbulence intensity of a wind farm is the focus of the wind power industry, especially for the entire machine manufacturers.

However, the patent only mentions that the actual wind frequency or the Weibull fitted wind frequency is used for subsequent calculation according to business needs, without giving specific selection schemes. In addition, the patent assumes that the turbulence distribution meets the Weibull distribution, however, in actual applications, not all data fit the Weibull distribution, and when the Weibull distribution is not met, the accuracy of the patent is low.

[0031] The present application will be further described below in combination with the drawings and embodiments.
[0032] Embodiment one
[0033] Glossary:
[0034] Turbulence intensity: the ratio of the standard deviation of wind speed to the mean wind speed. Turbulence intensity is a dimensionless value, which can be expressed as a decimal (e.g. 0.24) or as a percentage (24%). The numerical values in Table 2 below are expressed as decimals. In addition, in this embodiment, the turbulence value refers to turbulence intensity, and the parameters corresponding to each distribution and each probability refer to turbulence intensity. That is, turbulence intensity presents different distributions, and different probabilities correspond to different turbulence intensities.
[0035] Ambient turbulence: turbulence generated by local topography and atmospheric environment, etc. The ambient turbulence of the wind measurement tower is the turbulence intensity actually measured at the wind measurement tower. The ambient turbulence at the shooting location is the turbulence intensity obtained by directional calculation by CFD and corrected by the actually measured ambient turbulence at the wind measurement tower. This turbulence intensity is not affected by the wake of other wind turbines or obstacles.
[0036] Added turbulence: additional turbulence intensity caused by the wake effect during the operation of the wind farm, mainly considering the turbulence caused by the wake between the shooting locations.
[0037] Effective turbulence: the weighted average of the total turbulence in each wind direction sector. The effective turbulence intensity experienced by the wind turbine in the wind farm is composed of the ambient turbulence intensity and the added turbulence intensity caused by the wake between the wind turbines. The effective turbulence intensity is an important reference wind parameter for evaluating the load of the wind turbine. The effective turbulence intensity is the final and key turbulence intensity that affects the design of the wind turbine. Compared with other turbulence, it is closest to the actual turbulence intensity of the site and is more representative.
[0038] Actual turbulence intensity: the actual turbulence intensity of the site. The actual turbulence intensity of the site cannot be accurately captured and is affected by many factors such as the accuracy of the wind measurement radar, the terrain, and the arrangement of the shooting locations.
[0039] Turbulence matrix: a statistical value of the turbulence intensity in each wind speed section and each wind direction sector, which is a common form for investigating the characteristics of turbulence intensity.
[0040] Embodiment one of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 1-2, provides a method for evaluating the effective turbulence intensity of a wind farm, comprising:
[0041] S1, obtaining wind speed time series data of the wind farm, and obtaining a wind frequency matrix and a turbulence matrix of a target position based on the wind speed time series data of the wind farm;
[0042] S2, obtaining the wind frequency discrete probability density function of the distribution of different wind direction sectors based on the wind frequency matrix;
[0043] S3. Based on the turbulence matrix, obtain the environmental turbulence intensity under normal distribution, log-normal distribution and Weibull distribution respectively;
[0044] S4. Based on the wind speed time series data of the wind farm, perform a chi-square independence test on the observed frequency and expected frequency in each turbulent box interval at each wind speed; among which, the expected frequency includes the expected frequency of the normal distribution, the expected frequency of the log-normal distribution, and the expected frequency of the Weibull distribution;
[0045] S5. Based on the results of the chi-square independence test, determine the turbulence probability density function using the environmental turbulence intensity under the corresponding distribution;
[0046] S6. Obtain the effective turbulence intensity based on the turbulence probability density function and the wind frequency discrete probability density function.
[0047] The method provided in this embodiment flexibly provides the target machine point, material m-index, quantile, and box interval, and nests the envelope method and probability density method within the method to construct a more reasonable and flexible algorithm. This solves the problems of poor applicability, insufficient accuracy, large redundancy, complex operation process, and low integration of traditional methods.
[0048] In step S1, the wind speed time-series data measured by the wind measuring tower or wind radar is input into Meteodyn WT and converted into a wind frequency matrix and a turbulence matrix. A simulation model is built in the software's wind resource calculation module to perform calculations, obtaining the wind frequency matrix and turbulence matrix for the target turbine location. The coordinates and altitude of the target turbine location can be given by the user. The turbulence matrix includes three matrices: an ambient turbulence matrix, an added turbulence matrix, and an IEC turbulence matrix.
[0049] Tables 1 and 2 present the wind frequency matrix and IEC turbulence matrix obtained under a certain scenario. Table 1 shows the wind frequency matrix for different wind speed ranges and corresponding wind direction sectors at the target aircraft location, while Table 2 shows the IEC turbulence matrix for different wind speed ranges and corresponding wind direction sectors at the target aircraft location. Freq represents the frequency percentage for different wind direction sectors, in %. θ j For different wind direction sectors, the unit is °, divided in 22.5° increments; V hubi The data in Table 1 represents the wind speed at different hub locations, in m / s. Table 2 shows the frequency of different wind direction sectors corresponding to different wind speed ranges at the target turbine location, in ‰. The data in Table 2 also shows the turbulence intensity of different wind direction sectors corresponding to different wind speed ranges at the target turbine location. Both the wind speed range step size and the wind direction sector division step size can be selected by the user.

[0052] Step S2 includes:
[0053] S21. Based on the wind frequency data obtained in S1, calculate the wind speeds V. hubi Wind sector θ j Total probability P(V) hubi ).
[0054] S22. Calculate the discrete probability density function P(θ) of the wind frequency distribution in different wind directions at various wind speeds. j |V hubi ).
[0055] In step S21, the wind direction sector θ under a single wind speed j The formula for calculating the sum of probabilities is:
[0056] P(V hub )=F0*Freq0+…F j *Freq j +…F 337.5 *Freq 337.5
[0057] Among them, F j The frequency of sectors in different wind directions at a single wind speed is expressed in per mille (‰).
[0058] Wind direction sector θ under a single wind speed j The formula for calculating the sum of probabilities is used to calculate the wind speed V for each wind speed range. hubi Wind sector θ j Total probability P(V) hubi ).
[0059] In step S22, based on P(V) obtained in S21 hubi ), calculate the discrete probability density function P(θ) of the wind frequency distribution in different wind directions at various wind speeds. j |V hubi ):
[0060] Step S3 includes:
[0061] S31, Calculate the standard deviation of environmental turbulence intensity TI amb,sd .
[0062] S32. Based on the standard deviation of environmental turbulence intensity, solve the inverse probability density functions of the normal distribution, log-normal distribution and Weibull distribution under a single wind speed to obtain the corresponding environmental turbulence intensity.
[0063] S33. Calculate the environmental turbulence intensity under different wind direction sectors, different wind speed ranges, and different quantiles.
[0064] In step S31, the standard deviation of environmental turbulence intensity is calculated based on the turbulence matrix obtained in S1.
[0065] Among them, TI amb,sd TI represents the standard deviation of environmental turbulence intensity. IEC To account for representative values of turbulence intensity in the wake (corresponding to IEC turbulence information for the turbulence matrix); TI amb This represents the average environmental turbulence intensity (corresponding to the ambient turbulence information in the turbulence matrix); TI add This is for added turbulence intensity (corresponding to the added turbulence information in the turbulence matrix). The horizontal axis of the turbulence matrix represents different wind direction sectors, and the vertical axis represents different wind speeds. The data in the matrix table are the discrete turbulence intensity values corresponding to different wind direction sectors and different wind speeds. The turbulence intensity can be read directly from the table.
[0066] In step S32, the inverse probability density function P(x) of the three distributions—normal distribution, log-normal distribution, and Weibull distribution—is solved respectively under a single wind speed. x is the quantile (or cumulative probability) of the standard deviation of turbulence under a single wind speed. By inputting the quantile x, the corresponding environmental turbulence intensity Px value can be obtained, where x∈(0,1).
[0067] Normal distribution: Combining the average environmental turbulence intensity in step S1 (corresponding to the ambient turbulence information of the turbulence matrix) and the standard deviation of environmental turbulence intensity in step S31, the inverse probability density function P(x) of the normal distribution can be solved using the corresponding function in the data analysis software. norm The function used in this embodiment is norm.ppf.
[0068] Log-normal distribution: Combining the average environmental turbulence intensity in step S1 (corresponding to the ambient turbulence information of the turbulence matrix) and the standard deviation of the environmental turbulence intensity in step S31, the inverse probability density function P(x) of the log-normal distribution can be solved using the corresponding function in the data analysis software. lognorm The function used in this embodiment is lognorm.ppf.
[0069] Weibull distribution: k and c in the Weibull distribution can be obtained by solving. Among them, the shape parameter is usually represented by k, which determines the shape of the distribution; the scale parameter is usually represented by λ or c, which determines the horizontal scale of the distribution.
[0070] k can be solved by the following transcendental equation:
[0071] Where Γ represents the gamma function. Substituting the obtained k value into the following equation, we can obtain c:
[0072] At this point, the Weibull distribution probability density function P(x) can be determined. weibull The environmental turbulence intensity values under different quantiles (or different cumulative probabilities) x in the Weibull distribution are:
[0073] In step S33, repeat steps S31-S32, input different target quantiles x, and calculate the environmental turbulence intensity Px value under different wind direction sectors, different wind speed ranges, and different quantiles x.
[0074] At this point, each quantile X of each distribution corresponds to an environmental turbulence matrix for a different wind direction sector and a different wind speed range.
[0075] Actual wind fields do not simultaneously satisfy multiple distributions; they may only satisfy one distribution or none of them. Therefore, it is also necessary to determine the distribution satisfied by the actual turbulence intensity.
[0076] Step S4 is the chi-square test procedure, used to determine the turbulence intensity distribution function for each wind speed range, thereby solving the problems of assumption error in turbulence intensity distribution (not all data satisfy the Weibull distribution, and when the Weibull distribution is not satisfied, the calculation method based on the Weibull distribution has an assumption error) and redundancy in the envelope of turbulence intensity values (the calculation method based on the actual wind frequency usually takes the envelope, that is, selects the maximum value of each distribution for calculation, which results in large data redundancy and inaccuracy).
[0077] Step S4 includes:
[0078] S41. Based on the wind speed time series data of the wind farm, solve for the actual turbulence intensity value;
[0079] S42. Count the number of samples in each average wind speed interval to determine the interval in which the chi-square test needs to be performed.
[0080] S43. Within each wind speed range, determine the probability density functions of the normal distribution, log-normal distribution, and Weibull distribution;
[0081] S44. Divide the turbulent box intervals and obtain the expected frequency and observation frequency in each turbulent box interval;
[0082] S45. Perform a chi-square independence test on the expected frequency and observed frequency within each turbulent chamber interval.
[0083] In step S41, input the average wind speed v from the actual wind field anemometer tower data. actual SD actual Solve for the actual turbulence intensity value TL actual :
[0084] In this embodiment, 10 minutes of wind measurement data is used as a sampling point, and the wind measurement cycle is 1 year. The wind measurement cycle and sampling cycle are given by the user. The wind measurement cycle should not be less than 6 months. Generally, the more data, the more accurate the results. The accuracy of the actual turbulence intensity value solution affects the results of the subsequent chi-square test. It is recommended to retain 5 or more decimal places.
[0085] The mean wind speed and standard deviation are calculated based on time-series data from the wind farm's anemometer towers. The anemometer tower data consists of two columns: time and wind speed. This data differs from S1. In S1, the turbulence matrix was obtained by importing the anemometer tower data into WT software for processing, used to solve for the effective turbulence intensity of a specific distribution. The data here comes directly from the anemometer tower data, requiring no software processing, and is used for chi-square tests to determine the distribution pattern. The anemometer tower data represents the wind field without considering the actual turbulence intensity of the turbine wake. Its limitation lies in the short measurement period, requiring extrapolation. Therefore, this data is only used to determine the distribution pattern of turbulence intensity in the wind field.
[0086] In step S42, the upper and lower limits of the average wind speed are divided into intervals with a step size of 1 m / s. The step size of 1 m / s can be selected by the user; a smaller step size results in higher accuracy. The average wind speed v is then calculated. actual The number of samples n falling into each wind speed interval is determined. For intervals where n < 50, the chi-square test and subsequent steps are not performed, and NO is output.
[0087] In step S43, within a single wind speed range, the maximum likelihood function is used to fit the three distributions respectively for the actual turbulence intensity within that range, obtaining the unknown parameters in the distribution function and determining the probability density functions of the normal, log-normal, and Weibull distributions. This embodiment uses the `norm.fit`, `lognorm.fit`, and `weibull_min.fit` functions; users can use other reasonable methods to fit and determine the probability density functions.
[0088] In step S44, the actual turbulence intensity of a single wind speed range is divided into equally spaced intervals with a step size of 0.025 (optional), and each turbulence box interval is named Bin. k Calculate the cumulative probability density function (CDF) for each bin interval of the normal, log-normal, and Weibull distributions. k ).
[0089] Solve for a single box interval Bin under a single wind speedk The probability of that, i.e.:
[0090] P(Bin k ) = CDF(Bin k+1 )-CDF(Bin k )
[0091] The probability of each box interval at a single wind speed is multiplied by the number of samples in the current wind speed interval to obtain the expected frequency of that interval, i.e., EF. k =P(Bin) k )*n; The expected frequency is the theoretical frequency of turbulence intensity within the turbulence intensity box range under a certain distribution pattern and wind speed range; if the expected frequency EF k If the value is less than 5, it is merged with the next interval, and the expected frequency EF of each wind speed turbulence interval is recalculated. k Since the calculations are performed using three distributions—normal, log-normal, and Weibull—the expected frequencies of the normal, log-normal, and Weibull distributions can be obtained respectively, which can then be used for subsequent independence tests.
[0092] The frequency of each distribution and each wind speed falling into the turbulent box interval is observed; this frequency is the observation frequency OF. k The observation frequency is the actual frequency of turbulence intensity falling within the turbulence intensity box range under a certain distribution pattern and wind speed range.
[0093] In step S45, a chi-square independence test is performed. A two-dimensional contingency table of observed and expected frequencies for each wind speed is input. The test examines whether there is independence between the two frequency variables in each interval for each wind speed, and returns the P-value. Steps S44-S5 are repeated to obtain the P-values for the three distributions at different wind speeds.
[0094] Step S5 includes:
[0095] S50. Use the P-value method to judge each wind speed segment of the three distributions. If P is less than the significance level (e.g., 0.05), reject the null hypothesis, assign a value of 0, and the verification fails; otherwise, assign a value of 1, satisfy the null hypothesis, and the verification passes.
[0096] If only the normal distribution passes the verification, proceed to step S51;
[0097] If only the log-normal distribution passes the verification, proceed to step S52;
[0098] If only the Weibull distribution passes the verification, proceed to step S53;
[0099] If all distributions are rejected or two or more distributions pass, proceed to step S54.
[0100] The P-value method is used for judgment. In this embodiment, the P-value judgment table for the first 25 m / s wind speed range obtained based on the given data is shown in Table 3.

[0108] S54. Using the maximum value of the three distributions in a single wind speed segment as the set value, calculate the maximum IEC turbulence value. After the calculation is completed, proceed to step S55.
[0109] Px max =MAX{Px norm ,Px lognorm ,Px weibull}
[0110] Among them, Px IEC4 The maximum IEC turbulence value is given by the quantile x.
[0111] S55. For different quantiles x and different wind speeds, repeat steps S50-S54 to obtain the IEC turbulence value Px for each quantile x and each wind speed range. IECThe turbulence probability density function P(x) can be determined by fitting the data at each point. IEC At this point, each quantile x corresponds to an IEC turbulence matrix. x in θ j Direction, V hubi The turbulent probability density function of wind speed is defined as P x (θ j |V hubi ).
[0112] In step S6, the wind frequency discrete probability density function P(θ) obtained in S2 is used. j |V hubi The turbulence probability density function P obtained from S5 and S5 x (θ j |V hubi ), calculate the effective turbulence intensity I eff (V hubi ).
[0113] According to the requirements of the IEC 61400-1 international standard, the effective turbulence intensity I eff (V hubi The formula for calculating ) is:
[0114] Where m is the specified material index.
[0115] Given the user's desired value of m, the effective turbulence intensity I at each quantile x and each value of m corresponding to different wind speeds can be obtained. eff ;
[0116] Repeating the above steps allows for the determination of effective turbulence intensity I at different machine sites. eff The effective turbulence intensity I can be obtained at each location point, each quantile x, and each m value. eff .
[0117] Once the effective turbulence intensity assessment at the actual site is completed, it can be used for precise and customized load analysis, power generation assessment, and component design and matching verification of wind farm units.
[0118] The method provided in this embodiment can perform wind resource calculations and extract the required average wind speed, wind frequency, wind direction, and turbulence during the wind farm site selection and wind turbine design stages. The above wind resource parameters are processed using WT software and extrapolated to the corresponding wind parameters at the target turbine location. Mathematical functions are constructed and processed from multiple sets of data at the target turbine location. The wind frequency matrix is processed to obtain the discrete probability density function of the wind direction sector distribution. The chi-square test is used to determine the distribution function of the site turbulence intensity. The mathematical function is used to determine the probability density function of the IEC turbulence intensity. Based on IEC standard requirements, the effective turbulence intensity at different turbine locations, different quantiles, and different m values is obtained.
[0119] The method provided in this embodiment is rigorous and clear, with a reasonable mathematical function construction, which improves the accuracy of site turbulence intensity assessment and the safety of wind turbine generators.
