Abstract

An offshore wind profile measurement procedure uses SODAR (Sonic Detection and Ranging) to make measurements from a buoy or other moving platform with platform position and tilt sensors to provide buoy movement corrections to the transmitted wave front using phase shifts in the transmitter array.

Description

Für meteorologische Zwecke oder im Zusammenhang mit Einrichtung oder Betrieb von Windkraftanlagen ist die Erfassung von vertikalen Windprofilen erforderlich. Diese Messungen erfolgen nach Stand der Technik auf dem Land z.B. mit Hilfe von Messmasten oder Fernmessverfahren, z.B. SODAR.For meteorological Purposes or in connection with the installation or operation of wind turbines it is necessary to record vertical wind profiles. These Measurements are made in the state of the art on land e.g. With Help of measuring masts or telemetry methods, e.g. SODAR.

Die Errichtung von Messmasten im Offshore-Bereich ist mit unverhältnismäßigem Aufwand verbunden, der bisher nur für Forschungsaufgaben realisiert wurde. Insbesondere die aufwändige Gründung und die hohen Belastungen aus Seegang erzeugen im Vergleich zu landgestützten Systemen unwirtschaftlich hohe Kosten.The Erection of measuring masts in the offshore area is associated with disproportionate effort, so far only for Research tasks was realized. In particular, the elaborate foundation and the high loads from sea state generate in comparison to land based systems uneconomically high costs.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur sicheren und kostengünstigen Erfassung von Winddaten im Offshore-Bereich bereitzustellen.Of the Invention is based on the object, a method for safe and cost-effective Collect wind data in the offshore area.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass am Messort eine Boje installiert wird, die als Träger für die SODAR-Messtechnik dient, wobei Eigenbewegungen der Boje durch ein neues Verfahren kompensiert werden.These Task is inventively characterized solved, that a buoy is installed at the measuring location, which serves as a carrier for the SODAR measuring technology, whereby proper movements of the buoy compensated by a new method become.

Bei der Windmessung mit dem SODAR-Verfahren (Sonic Detection and Ranging) werden gerichtete akustische Signale in die Atmosphäre emittiert. Diese werden auf ihrem Weg an Turbulenzen reflektiert und erfahren dabei eine Dopplerverschiebung, die abhängig von der Geschwindigkeit dieser Turbulenz, respektive der Windgeschwindigkeit ist. Durch Messung der Frequenzverschiebung des reflektierten Signals lässt sich die Vertikalkomponente der Windgeschwindigkeit ermitteln, aus den Laufzeiten ergibt sich die jeweilige Entfernung und somit auch ein Höhenprofil. Durch zusätzliche Emission von Signalen in von der Vertikalen abweichende Raumrichtungen lassen sich aus Projektionsrechnungen auch die horizontalen Komponenten ermitteln, was somit ein dreidimensionales Windprofil liefert.at wind measurement using the SODAR method (Sonic Detection and Ranging) Directed acoustic signals are emitted into the atmosphere. These are reflected on their way to turbulence and experience it a Doppler shift, which depends on the speed this turbulence, respectively the wind speed is. By measurement the frequency shift of the reflected signal can be determine the vertical component of the wind speed, from the Running times results in the respective distance and thus also one Height profile. By additional Emission of signals in directions deviating from the vertical projections can also be used to calculate the horizontal components determine what thus provides a three-dimensional wind profile.

Die Kontrolle der Emissionsrichtung erfolgt beim "phased array" SODAR durch eine zweidimensionale Anordnung von Emittern. Diese erzeugen eine quasi-ebene Wellenfront, deren Ausbreitungsrichtung durch Einstellen einer geeigneten (statischen) Verzögerung (Phasenverschiebung) zwischen benachbarten Signalen vorgegeben werden kann.The Control of the emission direction takes place in the "phased array" SODAR by a two-dimensional arrangement of emitters. These generate a quasi-level wavefront whose Propagation direction by setting a suitable (static) delay (Phase shift) between adjacent signals can be specified.

Problematisch bei der SODAR-Technik ist die Empfindlichkeit des Verfahrens gegen z.B. seegangsbedingte Bewegungen der Messplattform.Problematic in the SODAR technique, the sensitivity of the method is against e.g. Seegangsbedingte movements of the measuring platform.

Die Kompensation solcher Eigenbewegungen der Messapparatur wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gewährleistet, dass zunächst mit Hilfe geeigneter Sensoren die polare und azimuthale Neigung der Boje, bzw. des SODAR erfasst wird. Mit dieser Information lässt sich dynamisch eine zeitliche Phasenverschiebung zwischen den einzelnen Emittern generieren, durch die die Ausbreitungsrichtung des Schallkegels von der Stellung der Messapparatur entkoppelt wird. Auf diese Weise haben die Signale stets die gleiche Richtung im Raum, unabhängig von der Stellung der Messplattform. Durch Messung der Position der SODAR-Apparatur mit Lagesensoren können Fehler durch die translatorische Bewegung erfasst und kompensiert werden.The Compensation of such proper movements of the measuring apparatus according to the invention guaranteed that first with the help of suitable sensors the polar and azimuthal inclination of the Buoy, or the SODAR is detected. With this information can be dynamically a temporal phase shift between the individual Generate emitters, through which the propagation direction of the cone of sound is decoupled from the position of the measuring apparatus. In this way the signals always have the same direction in the room, regardless of the Position of the measuring platform. By measuring the position of the SODAR device with position sensors can Error detected and compensated by the translational movement become.

Alternativ kann die Lage- und Neigungsinformation auch dazu genutzt werden, jedes Messsignal des statischen SODAR individuell zu korrigieren.alternative the position and inclination information can also be used to to correct each measuring signal of the static SODAR individually.
