基于地面激光扫描的在役风电机组气动特性重构研究

Reconstruction of Aerodynamic Characteristics of In-service Wind Turbines Based on Terrestrial Laser Scanning

  • 摘要: 风电机组的气动性能是技术改造的重要决策因素,叶片的气动参数是准确评估机组气动特性的关键数据来源。然而在实际工程中,商用机组的叶片参数往往因为保密规定或老旧机型数据缺失等原因难以获取,导致在役机组的气动特性普遍无法准确计算。针对在役机组叶片参数缺失造成的气动特性评估困难问题,提出一种适用于在役风电机组的气动特性重构方法。基于地面激光扫描技术获取叶片几何外形,并基于风电机组翼型库拟合沿叶片展向的翼型、弦长及扭角分布情况,通过XFOIL软件及Viterna外推方法计算翼型气动特性。利用机组气动模型与现场运行数据的一致性,解决桨距角标定不准确引起的模型偏差问题。最后,以某2 MW商用机组为例进行了模拟验证,通过与现场运行数据和机组设计曲线的对比分析,验证了所提方法的有效性。

     

    Abstract: The aerodynamic performance of a wind turbine is an important decision-making factor for technological transformation, and the aerodynamic parameters of the blades are a key source of data for accurately assessing the aerodynamic characteristics of the turbine. However, in actual engineering, the blade parameters of commercial turbines are often difficult to obtain due to confidentiality regulations or missing data of old models, resulting in a general inability to accurately calculate the aerodynamic characteristics of in-service turbines. A method of reconstructing aerodynamic characteristics for in-service wind turbines is proposed to address the difficulty of evaluating aerodynamic characteristics due to the lack of blade parameters of in-service wind turbines. Based on the terrestrial laser scanning technology, the blade geometry is obtained, and the distribution of airfoil shape, chord length and torsion angle along the blade spreading direction is fitted based on the wind turbine airfoil library. The airfoil aerodynamic characteristics are calculated by XFOIL software and Viterna extrapolation method. The model deviation caused by inaccurate pitch angle calibration is solved by using the consistency between the aerodynamic model of the turbine and the field operation data. Finally, a 2 MW commercial turbine is taken as an example for simulation verification, and the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through comparative analysis with the field operation data and the turbine design curve.
