Due to the intermittent nature of wind energy, wind speed changes lead to fluctuations in the output power of wind turbines in the wind power generation system, thus affecting the power quality of the grid. Capacitor for wind power as a new type of energy storage device, as a backup power supply to meet the requirements of its use.
The wind turbine pitch system is a core component of the wind turbine, responsible for adjusting the angle of the turbine blades to adapt to different wind speeds and directions, thus ensuring the high efficiency and stability of wind power generation. However, the pitch system faces many challenges during operation, such as fast response, high reliability, low energy consumption, and other requirements. Traditional energy storage components are often difficult to meet these requirements, so finding a new type of energy storage technology has become an important issue in the wind power industry.
By applying capacitor for wind power to wind turbine pitch system, its advantages of fast charging and discharging and high power density can be fully utilized. When the wind speed changes or the wind direction changes, it can quickly provide the required power to ensure the fast response of the pitch system. At the same time, its long cycle life reduces maintenance costs and increases system reliability. In addition, capacitor for wind power has excellent temperature characteristics and can work stably in extreme environments, providing a strong guarantee for the operation of wind power pitch system.
While the grid inputs electricity for wind turbine operation, the charger controlled by the intelligent management unit charges the capacitor for wind power group. Charging stops when the rated voltage is reached. In case of emergency operation, the wind turbine pitch control system sends out a command for emergency pitching, at which time the capacitor for wind power starts to discharge and the pitch system controls the blades to pitch in order to achieve a safe shutdown.
With the continuous development of wind power technology, the performance requirements of the pitch system are getting higher and higher. Capacitor for wind power, as a new type of energy storage technology, has a broad application prospect in the wind power pitch system. In the future, with the continuous progress and cost reduction of capacitor for wind power, it will inject new vitality into the sustainable development of wind power industry.
