项目摘要

This project is aimed at the development of numerical methods to simulate a turbulent wind field and to predict its influence on aerodynamic loads experienced by a HAWT rotor.The turbulent wind field simulation generates time series of turbulent wind speed at several points in a rotor plane for use in the aerodynamic loads analysis, taking account of the correlation of the wind time series at a certain point with that at every other point. The wind field simulation model is constructed on the basis of a Fourier synthesis method (the Veer's model). In this model, the required inputs are the power spectrum densities (PSDs) and the coherence functions of the turbulent wind, which define the cross spectral densities (CSDs) between any two points in the rotor plane. The vector of complex Fourier coefficients of the simulated wind can be determined by adding random phases to the set of PSDs and CSDs. By performing an inverse Fourier transform of the vector, the time series of the wind is obtained.For the calculation of aerodynamic loads on the rotor blades, an inviscid aerodynamic model based on an asymptotic acceleration potential method is adopted. This calculation model can easily evaluate the effects of the flow unsteadiness in the rotor plane induced by the wake. Unsteady aerodynamic loads caused by the dynamic stall effects are taken into account by using the ONERA method.It is analyzed how the aerodynamic loads on the rotor (ex.flapping moment) respond to turbulence characteristics of the wind incoming to the rotor. Turbulence characteristics of the wind incoming to a turbine rotor bring about complicated aerodynamic loads on the wind turbine, which must be considered in the structural design process of the rotor blades. The present calculation model has a possibility to develop a simple design tool.

该项目旨在开发数值方法来模拟湍流风场并预测其对 HAWT 转子所经历的空气动力载荷的影响。湍流风场模拟生成转子平面上多个点处的湍流风速时间序列用于空气动力载荷分析，考虑某一点的风时间序列与其他点的风时间序列的相关性。风场模拟模型是基于傅立叶合成方法（Veer 模型）构建的。在此模型中，所需的输入是功率谱密度 (PSD) 和湍流风的相干函数，它们定义了转子平面中任意两点之间的互谱密度 (CSD)。模拟风的复傅立叶系数矢量可以通过向 PSD 和 CSD 集合添加随机相位来确定。通过对矢量进行傅里叶逆变换，得到风的时间序列。对于旋翼叶片气动载荷的计算，采用基于渐近加速势法的无粘气动模型。该计算模型可以方便地评估尾流引起的转子平面内流动不稳定的影响。采用ONERA方法考虑了由动态失速效应引起的非定常气动载荷，分析了转子上的气动载荷（例如扑动力矩）如何响应进入转子的风的湍流特性。进入涡轮机转子的风的湍流特性会给风力机带来复杂的气动载荷，在转子叶片的结构设计过程中必须考虑这一问题。目前的计算模型有可能开发出简单的设计工具。
