Flow-induced vibration power generation vibrator capable of controlling vibration
Technical Field
The application relates to the field of offshore new energy and ocean current power generation and fluid mechanics, in particular to a flow-induced vibration power generation vibrator capable of realizing vibration size control.
Background
The global ocean current distribution is wide, the reserves are huge, and the developable ocean current energy exceeds 6×10 6 MW. The current-induced vibration power generation is used as the front technology of the current power generation, has the remarkable advantages of high energy density, low starting flow speed, no occupation of cultivated land, no influence on navigation and the like, and has good application prospect by capturing energy by utilizing the vibration of the current-induced vibrator.
At present, the shape of a flow-induced vibration power generation vibrator is studied more, and the purpose of the flow-induced vibration power generation vibrator is to improve the vibration strength so as to obtain more fluid kinetic energy. The partial non-circular section vibrator has larger amplitude and can better realize energy conversion because of the non-axisymmetric section characteristic and the relaxation phenomenon under the condition of high flow velocity. However, since the amplitude is large and the amplitude of the vibrator continues to increase with the flow rate, this tends to cause the amplitude of the vibration to exceed the vibration limit, and once the limit is exceeded, a destructive safety accident tends to be caused. For this reason, it is necessary to propose a structure or a method suitable for suppressing flow-induced vibrations or shutdown. At present, most of available methods are to increase the system load, force the system damping to be improved, and thus inhibit vibration, and most of the methods rely on self-control equipment. If a simpler method can be provided, double safety guarantee is increased, and certain economy is achieved.
