Description

Active yaw control method and related equipment of multi-impeller floating type wind generating set Technical Field The invention belongs to the technical field of wind power generation, and particularly relates to an active yaw control method and related equipment of a multi-blade wheel floating type wind generating set. Background With the acceleration of global energy transformation, offshore wind power development is gradually extended from offshore shallow sea to deep open sea. In deep water areas, the installation cost of a fixed foundation rises sharply, and the floating wind power generator set becomes a main technical route for deep sea wind power development. In order to further improve the power generation capacity of a single platform and reduce the cost of unit kilowatt, a multi-impeller floating fan scheme is proposed in the industry, namely, two or more wind generating sets are arranged on the same floating platform. This configuration may allow for better economies by sharing the floating foundation, mooring system and power take-off facilities. For any configuration of wind turbine, the yaw system is one of the core components. The yaw system is used for driving the wind wheel to aim at the wind direction in real time so as to maximize wind energy capturing efficiency and simultaneously control unbalanced load born by the unit. In the prior art, yaw control is mainly implemented in two ways. The first approach is an independent yaw scheme employed by conventional onshore and stationary offshore wind turbines, i.e., each unit is equipped with an independent yaw drive system that rotates a single nacelle relative to the tower via a motor. But the use of this approach in multi-impeller floating fans presents new problems. Because a plurality of units are installed on the platform, each unit is required to be provided with a set of complete yaw driving system, the top weight and the manufacturing cost of the platform are increased, extremely high requirements are also provided for cooperative control of a plurality of units, and the yaw angle deviation of any unit can possibly cause the aggravation of pneumatic interference among the units, so that the overall power generation efficiency is influenced. The second way is to utilize the self-characteristics of the floating wind turbine to achieve passive yaw. The whole platform of the floating type wind turbine can freely rotate around mooring points to form a passive wind effect similar to a wind vane. This solution does not require an active yaw mechanism and is relatively simple in structure. The scheme is applied to the multi-impeller floating fan, and has the obvious limitations that firstly, the passive yaw completely depends on the natural action of wind power, the response speed is slower, when the wind direction changes rapidly, the platform cannot always follow timely, long-time wind energy loss is caused, secondly, the floating platform can generate high-frequency oscillation motions under the action of waves, and the motions are overlapped on the yaw response of the platform, so that the passive yaw is difficult to realize accurate wind alignment, the actual azimuth angle of the platform always continuously fluctuates near a target azimuth angle and cannot be aligned stably, and in addition, the moment of inertia of the platform is larger, the inertia and environmental damping are difficult to overcome only by wind power driving, and the yaw response capability of the platform is further limited. Therefore, how to realize rapid, accurate and coordinated yaw control in a multi-impeller floating fan, and avoid complex and heavy independent yaw mechanisms and inhibit the influence of wave disturbance on yaw precision is a technical problem to be solved in the field. Disclosure of Invention Aiming at the problems in the prior art, the invention provides an active yaw control method and related equipment of a multi-blade wheel floating wind generating set, and aims to realize rapid, accurate and collaborative yaw control in a multi-blade wheel floating fan, avoid adopting a complex and heavy independent yaw mechanism and inhibit the influence of wave disturbance on yaw precision.
