Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for Berteiben a differential gear for an energy production plant, in particular for a wind turbine, with three inputs or outputs, with a first drive with a drive shaft of the power plant, an output with a generator and a second drive with an electric machine ais Differential drive is connected, and wherein the electric machine can be operated in the field weakening range.
- Wind power plants are becoming increasingly important as electricity generation plants. As a result, the percentage of electricity generated by wind is continuously increasing. This, in turn, requires new standards of power quality on the one hand and a trend towards even larger wind turbines on the other. At the same time, there is a trend towards offshore wind turbines, which require system sizes of at least 5 MW of installed capacity. Due to the high costs for infrastructure and maintenance of the wind turbines in the offshore area, the efficiency and availability of the turbines are of particular importance here.
- WO2004 / 109157 A1 shows a complex, hydrostatic "multi-way" concept with several parallel differential stages and several switchable couplings, which makes it possible to switch between the individual paths With the technical solution shown, the power and thus the losses of the hydrostatics can be reduced.
- a major disadvantage is the complicated structure of the entire unit and, in addition, the circuit between the individual stages poses a problem in the regulation of the wind power system. Anläge dar. Furthermore, this publication shows a mechanical brake, which acts directly on the generator shaft.
- WO 2006/010190 A1 shows a simple electrical concept with a multi-stage differential gear, which preferably provides an asynchronous generator as a differential drive.
- the rated speed of the differential drive of 1500rpm is extended in the motor operation by 1/3 to 2000rpm, which means a field weakening range of about 33%.
- EP 1283359 A1 shows a 1-stage and a multi-stage differential gear with electric differential drive, wherein the 1-stage version has a coaxially positioned around the input shaft special three-phase machine with high rated speed, which due to the design of an extremely high on the rotor shaft related mass moment of inertia Has.
- a multi-stage differential gear with high-speed standard three-phase machine is proposed, which is aligned parallel to the input shaft of the differential gear.
- the object of the invention is largely to avoid the above-mentioned disadvantages and to provide a differential drive which, in addition to the lowest possible costs, ensures both maximum energy yield and optimum regulation of the wind power plant.
- the rated speed range of the differential drive can be reduced while maintaining an aerodynamically advantageous speed range of the power plant, in particular wind turbine, whereby an optimal balance between higher aerodynamic efficiency and efficiency losses is achieved by the differential drive, while taking into account the regulatory conditions in energy production plants, in particular wind turbines.
- Fig. 5 shows the speed ratios at the rotor of the wind turbine and thereby engbsbjenderi-maximum input ⁇ Wheelraomente -M ma ⁇ for-the-differential AntFieb,
- Fig. 9 shows the multiplication factor f (J) for 1-stage and 2-stage differential gear, with which the value of the mass moment of inertia J of the differential drive is to multiply to the rotor shaft related J red at the lowest rotor speed (n min ),
- Fig. 17 shows the current production cost of an electric differential drive at various rated speed ranges for 2-stage differential gears
- FIG. 1-9 shows a solution mJt-an-ir + the main get-p-integated r 1 -type djfferential gear
- FIG. 20 shows a solution with a 1-stage differential gear integrated in the synchronous generator
- Fig. 21 shows an alternative solution for a 1-stage differential gear with a coaxial connection zw. Ring gear and differential drive.
- the power of the rotor of a wind turbine is calculated from the formula
- Rotor power Rotor area * Power coefficient * Air density / 2 * Wind speed
- the rotor of a wind turbine is designed for an optimal power coefficient based on a fast running speed to be determined in the course of the development (usually a value between 7 and 9). For this reason, when operating the wind turbine in the partial load range, a correspondingly low speed must be set in order to ensure optimum aerodynamic efficiency.
- Fig. 1 shows the ratios for rotor power, rotor speed, high-speed number and power coefficient for a given maximum speed range of the rotor or an optimal speed number of 8.0-8.5. From the graph, it can be seen that as soon as the high-speed number deviates from its optimum value of 8.0-8.5, the power coefficient drops, and then Thus, according to the above formula reduces the Rotorieistung according to the aerodynamic characteristics of the rotor.
- Fig. 2 shows a possible principle of a differential system for a wind turbine consisting of differential stage 3 or 11 to 13, a matching gear stage 4 and a differential drive 6.
- the rotor 1 of the wind turbine which sits on the drive shaft for the main transmission 2, drives the main gear 2.
- the main transmission 2 is a 3-stage transmission with two planetary stages and a spur gear.
- the generator 8 preferably a foreign-excited synchronous generator, which may also have a nominal voltage greater than 2OkV if necessary - is connected to the ring gear 13 of the differential stage 3 and is driven by this.
- the pinion 11 of the differential stage 3 is connected to the differential drive 6.
- the speed of the differential drive 6 is controlled in order to ensure a constant speed of the generator 8 at variable speed of the rotor 1 and on the other hand to control the torque in the complete drive train of the wind turbine.
- a 2-stage differential gear is selected in the case shown, which provides an adjustment gear stage 4 in the form of a spur gear between differential stage 3 and differential drive 6.
- Differential ⁇ Stüfe ⁇ 3 "üncTAnpassungs-GetTiebesrufe ⁇ 4 ⁇ 5i1äeT ⁇ ⁇ rmtTJä ⁇ ⁇ 2 ⁇ ary ⁇ differential drive is a rotary current machine, which is connected via inverter 7 and the transformer 5 to the network.
- the differential drive, as shown in 3 can also be embodied as, for example, hydrostatic pumps / motor combination 9.
- the second pump is preferably connected via adaptation gear stage 10 to the drive shaft of the generator 8.
- Fig. 4 shows another possible embodiment of the differential gear according to the prior art.
- the planet carrier 12 is driven by the main gear 2 and the generator 8 is connected to the ring gear 13 and the pinion with the electric differential drive 6.
- This embodiment represents a 1-stage solution, in which case for design reasons a special three-phase machine is used, which is much more expensive compared to standard three-phase machines and also has a very high moment of inertia. In terms of control engineering, this has a particularly negative effect with regard to the mass moment of inertia of the differential drive 6, which is related to the rotor 1.
- the torque on the rotor is determined by the upcoming wind supply and the aerodynamic efficiency of the rotor.
- the ratio between the torque on the rotor shaft and that on the differential drive is constant, which increases the torque in the drive train can be regulated by the differential drive.
- the torque equation for the differential drive is:
- the performance of the differential drive is essentially proportional to the product of percent deviation of the rotor speed from its base speed times rotor power. Accordingly, a large speed range basically requires a correspondingly large dimensioning of the differential drive.
- FIG. 5 shows this by way of example for different speed ranges.
- the - / + rated speed range of the rotor defines its percentage speed deviation from the basic speed of the rotor, which can be realized with rated speed of the differential drive (- ... motor or + ... regenerative) without field weakening.
- the nominal speed! (n) of the differential drive defined in the case of a rotary electric machine, the maximum speed at which this permanently the rated torque (M n ) or the rated power (P n ) can provide.
- the rated speed of the differential drive is the speed at which this maximum torque (T max ) can deliver maximum continuous power (P 0 max ) with maximum torque.
- the nominal pressure (P N ) and nominal size (NG) or displacement volume (V 9 ⁇ x ) of the pump determine the maximum torque (T m3x ).
- n max and n miivm a ⁇ p > which can be realized without load reduction, is chosen to be large in order to be able to compensate for wind gusts.
- the size of this speed range depends on the gustiness of the wind or the inertia of the rotor of the wind turbine and the dynamics of the so-called pitch system (rotor blade adjustment system), and is usually about - / + 5%.
- a control speed range of - / + 6% has been selected in order to have adequate reserves for the control of extreme conditions by means of differential drives.
- Wind turbines with very sluggish pitch systems can, however, also be designed for control speed ranges of approximately -1 + 7% to - / + 8%.
- the wind turbine must produce rated power, which means that the differential drive is loaded with maximum torque.
- the - / + rated speed range of the rotor must be about the same size, because only in this range, the differential drive can make its rated torque.
- the base speed the rotor speed at which the differential drive has the speed equal to zero.
- the differential drive Since the basic speed is greater than n mirvmaxP for small rotor speed ranges, the differential drive must be able to provide the rated torque at zero speed. However, differential drives, whether electric or hydraulic, can only generate a torque at speed equal to 0, which is significantly lower than the rated torque, which can be compensated by a corresponding oversizing in the design. However, since the maximum design torque is the sizing factor for a differential drive, for this reason, a small speed range has a limited positive effect on the size of the differential drive.
- the rated speed of the differential drive is set in this case, alternatively, with its speeds at n m a x and n m j n .
- FIG. 6 shows by way of example the speed or power ratios for a differential stage.
- the speed of the generator preferably a third-excited medium voltage synchronous generator is constant by the connection to the frequency-fixed power grid.
- this drive is operated as a motor in the range below the basic speed and as a generator in the range above the basic speed.
- power is fed into the differential stage in the motor area and power is taken from the differential stage in the generator area.
- this power is preferably taken from the network or fed into it.
- the power is preferably taken from the generator shaft or supplied thereto.
- the sum of generator power and power differential drive gives the total power delivered to the grid for an electric differential drive.
- the input torque for the differential drive depends in addition to the torque at the differential input also significantly from the transmission ratio of the differential gear. If the analysis is based on the assumption that the optimum gear ratio of a planetary stage is at a so-called stationary ratio of about 6, then with a 1-stage differential gear the torque for the differential drive will not be proportional to the speed range smaller. There are technically larger stand translations feasible, which at best reduces this problem, but not eliminated.
- the graph shows for 1-stage differential gearbox that as the nominal speed range decreases, the design torques for the differential drive increase.
- 2-speed differential gear This can be achieved, for example, by implementing a matching gear stage 4 between differential stage 3 and differential drive 6 or 9.
- the input torque for the differential stage which essentially determines their cost, can not be reduced thereby.
- Fig. 8 shows the comparison of the torque of the differential drive for a 1-stage and a 2-stage differential gear and the factor J (red), which is the ratio of the rotor shaft related mass moments of inertia (J ⁇ ) of both variants. It is clear from Fig. 8 that with free choice of the transmission ratio of the differential gear - in the case shown for a rated speed of the differential drive of about 1500rpm - the required torque of the differential drive with decreasing speed range is correspondingly smaller.
- Fig. 9 shows the multiplication factor f (J) with the value of the mass moment of inertia of the differential drive is to be multiplied with a minimum rotor speed to the related to the rotor shaft J re ⁇ j of the differential drive in minimum rotor speed (n min) to calculate.
- the differential drive In order to compensate for speed jumps of the rotor of the wind turbine, the differential drive must be over-dimensioned accordingly, which represents a significant cost factor with increasing J red , ie with increasing nominal speed range or multi-stage differential drive even at lower speed ranges ,
- Fig. 10 shows the required torque for the differential drive to be able to balance a gust of wind. Assuming a gust of wind, which accelerates from 4.5 m / s to 11.5 m / s within 2 seconds, this causes a speed jump of 5.6 to 10.3 rpm, depending on the rated speed range of the rotor of the wind turbine at the same speed of 11, 7rpm for all rated speed ranges. The differential drive has to follow this speed jump, whereby the acceleration torque required for it corresponding to J red and magnitude of the speed jump fails. It is clearly recognizable that multistage differential gearboxes require higher torques because of the higher transmission gear ratio.
- the field weakening range is that rotational speed range which is above the nominal rotational speed of the rotary electric machine. For this rated speed also the nominal torque or the nominal tilting torque is defined. In the tables and other descriptions, the field weakening range is defined as a percentage of the speed above the rated speed - i. the e.g. 1.5 times rated speed corresponds to a field weakening range of 50%.
- FIG. 11 shows by way of example the values for maximum torque or tilting torque of an electric differential drive with a rated speed of 1500 rpm. It is clearly recognizable that the maximum achievable moments become smaller both at a speed equal to zero and above the rated speed.
- An essential characteristic of wind turbines is that in the partial load range, in the example shown corresponds approximately to the engine operation, the required torques are much lower than the maximum permitted. In generator mode, for speeds greater than about 1730rpm, load reduction is required for the wind turbine to ensure that the permitted maximum torques are not exceeded.
- Fig. 10 shows a field weakening range of 80% of up to 1, 8 times the rated speed, which represents a technically meaningful upper limit for the selected for the example electric drive.
- Operation in the field weakening range for three-phase machines depends on their design up to 50% to 60%, ie an approximately 1, 5 times to 1, 6 times the rated speed without Speed feedback possible, in addition, the use of eg encoders is necessary. Since the use of an encoder represents an additional source of error, and the so-called sensorless torque or speed control is dynamically better, when defining the field weakening range an optimum is found between control dynamics and optimum annual energy yield. This means that at high mean wind speeds and the associated extreme gusts, a field weakening range is to be selected, which allows the encoderless control to be able to compensate for these gusts accordingly.
- Fig. 13 shows the difference of the gross energy yield as a function of the field weakening range for different average annual wind speeds. The optimum is achieved with a field weakening range between 100% to 120%. Based on these conditions, a field weakening range is selected depending on the conditions of use, but in each case ⁇ 50%.
- the mean annual wind speed is the annual mean of the wind speed measured at hub height (corresponds to the center of the rotor).
- the maximum mean annual wind speeds of 10.0 m / s, 8.5 m / s, 7.5 m / s and 6.0 m / s correspond to the so-called IEC type classes 1, 2, 3 and 4.
- IEC type classes 1, 2, 3 and 4. As a statistical frequency distribution, a Rayleigh Distribution accepted.
- permanent magnet synchronous three-phase machines as differential drive still have the advantage of having a small moment of inertia compared to rated torque compared to three-phase machines of other type, which, as already described, as advantageous in terms of control of the wind turbine proves, with which the effort for a particularly mass inertia-poor design of the differential drive will always be worthwhile.
- so-called reluctance machines also have a very small moment of inertia, but typically higher rated speeds. It is known that reluctance machines are extremely robust, which is particularly positive for use in the offshore sector.
- the size of the differential drive also has a significant impact on the overall efficiency of the wind turbine.
- the basic insight arises that a large speed range of the rotor of the wind turbine causes a better aerodynamic efficiency, but on the other hand also requires a larger dimensioning of the differential drive. This in turn leads to higher losses, which counteracts a better system efficiency (determined by the aerodynamics of the rotor and the losses of the differential drive).
- Fig. 14 shows the difference of the gross energy yield of the wind turbine with electric differential drive at different mean annual wind speeds depending on the rated speed range of the rotor of the wind turbine.
- the gross energy yield is based on the output power of the rotor of the wind turbine minus the losses of differential drive (including frequency converter) and differential gear.
- Ehn-ratedfeed -from - / + - 6% Hst-Erfrndmgsgernäß- the Basisrrank ⁇ tarcrr ⁇ len ⁇ minimum required control speed range in the rated power range of wind turbines with differential drives is required, the nominal speed range that rotor speed range means that with Rated speed of the differential drive can realize.
- Fig. 15 shows the difference of the gross energy yield of the wind turbine with hydraulic differential drive at different mean annual wind speeds.
- the significantly higher losses in hydraulic differential drives have a negative effect on the energy yield, whereby a nominal speed range between the minimum required for control purposes - / + 6% and the energy yield optimum of - / + 10% at high mean annual wind speeds ( greater than 8.5 m / s) and - / + 15% at lower average annual wind speeds makes sense.
- the break of the curve at about - / + 12% rated speed range, resulting from the high rated torque of the differential drive at speed equal to 0 in the nominal operating range of the wind turbine and the low gear ratio in the adjustment gear 4.
- the relevant points in the optimization of differential drives are (a) the gross energy yield, (b) the manufacturing costs for the differential drive and (c) the quality of the torque or speed control of the wind turbine influencing the total manufacturing costs.
- the gross energy yield is proportional to the electricity Production costs and thus in the economy of a wind farm.
- the manufacturing costs are related to the total manufacturing costs of a so-called wind farm, but only with the percentage of the proportionate capital costs of the wind turbine to the total cost of the wind farm including maintenance and operating costs. On average, this wind power plant-specific share of electricity production costs is about 2/3 for so-called on-site projects and about 1/3 for off-shore projects. On average, therefore, you can define a percentage of about 50%.
- Fig. 16 shows the effects of different speed ranges on the electricity production costs of the wind farm with 1-stage differential gear and electric differential drive.
- Fig. 17 shows the effects of different speed ranges on the electricity production costs of the wind farm with 2-stage differential gear (below a nominal speed range of about - / + 16.5%) with electric differential drive. Particularly at lower mean annual wind speeds, the optimum is also apparent here at a speed range between 15.0% and 20.0%. At average annual wind speeds greater than 8.5 m / s, however, a small speed range of from regulatory reasons at least +/- 6% to about - / + 10% is an attractive option. That means that multi-stage differential gear at very high mean annual wind speeds competitive with 1-stage solutions are.
- a mechanical brake is provided which, in the event of failure of the differential drive for the engine strlind harmful overspeeding prevented.
- WO2004 / 109157 A1 shows for this purpose a mechanical brake which acts directly on the generator shaft and thus can decelerate the generator accordingly.
- the above-mentioned permanent magnet synchronous three-phase machines which can be used in combination with a frequency converter as a differential drive, have the advantage that they are very fail-safe, and simply by shorting the primary winding, with or without interposed electrical resistors, a Torque can be maintained up to about the height of the nominal torque.
- a Torque can be maintained up to about the height of the nominal torque.
- the synchronous three-phase machine can be short-circuited automatically (fail-safe) by a simple electrical circuit, and thus a torque is maintained, which may have at rated speed to about nominal size, and decreases with decreasing speed accordingly, at go to 0 at very low speeds.
- an overspeed of the differential drive is prevented in a simple manner.
- Fig. 18 shows a possibility of short-circuiting a three-phase machine with electrical resistances interposed therebetween.
- Speed G enerator X * Speed RotO r + y * Speed Dlffe renüal drive, by means of rotor blade adjustment, the speed of the rotor controlled so that the speed of the differential drive does not exceed a predetermined critical limit.
- the optimal wind turbine control, the overall efficiency and the simple or cost-optimal mechanical structure of the differential gear is a 1-stage differential gear is the ideal technical solution.
- the rotor 1 drives the main gear 2 and this via planet carrier 12, the differential stage 11 to 13.
- the generator 8 is connected to the ring gear 13, and the pinion 11 with the differential drive 6.
- the differential gear is 1-stage, and the Differential drive 6 is in coaxial arrangement both to the output shaft of the main transmission 2, as well as to the drive shaft of the generator 8. Since the connection between pinion 11 and differential drive 6 passes through the spur gear and the output shaft of the main transmission 2, the differential stage is preferred an integral part of the main gear 2 and this is then preferably connected via a brake 15 which acts on the rotor 1, and a clutch 14 to the generator 8.
- Fig. 20 shows another possible embodiment according to the present invention.
- the rotor 1 drives the main gear 2 and this via planet carrier 12, the differential stage 11 to 13.
- the generator 8 is connected to the ring gear 13 and the pinion 11 with the differential drive 6.
- the differential gear is 1-stage, and Differential drive 6 is seen in coaxial arrangement with both the output shaft of the main gear 2 and the drive shaft of the GenecatQCSLB ⁇ JdieJL ⁇ sLjedoch-bJeim - GeDerator-8-a-HohJwelle - VQrge- which allows the differential drive is positioned on the side facing away from the differential gear of the generator 8.
- the differential stage is preferably a separate, connected to the generator 8 assembly, which is then preferably connected via a clutch 14 and a brake 15 to the main transmission 2.
- the connecting shaft 16 between the pinion 11 and the differential drive 6 may preferably be in a particularly low-inertia variation as e.g. Fiber composite shaft to be executed with glass fiber or carbon fiber.
- the main advantage of the shown coaxial, 1-stage embodiment of both variants are (a) the constructive simplicity of the differential gear, (b) the resulting high efficiency of the differential gear and (c) the relatively low on the rotor 1 related moment of inertia of the differential drive 6.
- the differential gear can be manufactured as a separate assembly and implemented and maintained independently of the main transmission.
- the differential drive 6 can also be replaced by a hydrostatic drive, for which, however, a second pumping element interacting with the hydrostatic differential drive must preferably be driven by the generator 8.
- FIGS. 19 and 20 illustrate an adjustment gear stage 4 (as generally shown in FIGS. 2 or 3) between differential stage 11 to 13 and differential drive 6.
- FIG. 19 and FIG. 20 differ substantially with respect to the effects of a so-called emergency braking of the wind power plant by means of brake 15. If it is assumed that a braking torque of up to 2.5 times the rated torque usually acts when the brake 15 is activated , so this affects divided rotor, generator and differential drive according to their reduced mass moments of inertia. These are of course dependent on the mass ratios of the running wind turbine. As a realistic example, with nominal operation of a 5 MW wind power plant based on the brake 15, it is possible to assume about 1,900 kgm2 for the rotor 1, about 200 kgm2 for the synchronous generator 8 and about 10 kgm2 for the differential drive 6.
- a significant advantage of the embodiment according to FIG. 20 is that when the brake 15 is engaged, its braking torque does not act on the mass moment of inertia via differential gear. In this case, only about 9.5% of the braking torque acting on the generator 8 and about 0.5% to the differential drive 6.
- Figure 21 shows another possible embodiment of the differential gear.
- the planet carrier 12 is driven by the main gear 2, but the generator 8 is connected to the pinion 11 and the ring gear with the electric differential drive consisting of rotor 17 and stator 18.
- This embodiment also provides a coaxial, 1 -stufige solution, with transmission technical conditions lead to a relatively low speed of the rotor 15. This affects control technology particularly positive in relation to the related to the rotor 1 mass moment of inertia of the differential drive 17 to 18.
- the embodiments described above are also feasible in technically similar applications. This applies especially to hydropower plants for the exploitation of river and ocean currents.
- the same basic requirements apply as for wind turbines, namely variable flow rate.
- the drive shaft is driven by the devices driven by the flow medium, for example water. driven directly or indirectly. Subsequently, the drive shaft directly or indirectly drives the differential gear.
