The invention provides an active
lightning triggering device and method for a
fan blade. The device comprises two
copper rods with tip heads, a protection circuit, a boost
lightning circuit and a
metal shielding net. The two
copper rods are arranged in parallel at the blade tip of the
fan blade, one
copper rod is directly grounded, and the other copper rod is connected with the boost
lightning circuit through the protection circuit; the boost lightning guide circuit comprises a charging
capacitor, an
inductor, a high-frequency switch and a
diode and is used for sensing positive
high voltage and dynamically adjusting
resonance characteristics so as to enhance
voltage difference between thundercloud and a copper rod and trigger uplink and downlink leader to form a
discharge channel; the
metal shielding net wraps the blade tip and is connected with the grounding device to ensure that lightning current is preferentially discharged through the copper rod, and the blade tip structure is prevented from being damaged. According to the method, environmental
meteorology and blade attitudes are monitored in real time, a boosted circuit is started in combination with threshold judgment, and
control parameters are optimized by using a remote monitoring platform, so that intelligent lightning protection management is realized. According to the device, by actively exciting
corona discharge and accurately guiding a lightning path, the lightning protection efficiency of the blade is remarkably improved, the damage risk of a non-lightning-receiving area is reduced, meanwhile, a maintenance decision is supported through datamation operation and maintenance, and the device is suitable for wind generating set protection in a
thunderstorm area.
