摘要:

飞轮储能系统通过电机加速飞轮将电能转化为动能存储或减速制动发电释放动能,并依靠电力电子装置控制电机的加速或减速实现动能与电能的双向转换,具有响应快、充放频次高、转换效率高、寿命长等特点,广泛应用于电力调频、能量回收、不间断供电等领域。本文提出一种大功率飞轮储能系统磁轴承的设计方案,采用径向和轴向重载电磁轴承相结合的支承方式。运用有限元数值计算手段,系统开展该装置的电磁特性分析。通过建立多物理场耦合模型,实现电磁场与温度场的双向耦合仿真,从而全面评估磁轴承在不同电流下的温度分布。结果表明,所设计的重载电磁轴承性能满足设计要求,自然空冷的方式能保证系统安全运行。降低电流有助于提升热安全性,但会降低电磁力,因此,飞轮储能系统磁轴承设计需在热管理与电磁性能之间实现合理权衡。

Abstract:

The flywheel energy storage system converts electrical energy into kinetic energy by accelerating the flywheel through a motor, storing it, decelerating and braking it to generate electricity, and releasing kinetic energy. It relies on power electronic devices to control the acceleration or deceleration of the motor to achieve energy conversion. It has the characteristics of fast response, high charging and discharging frequency, high conversion efficiency, and long service life, and is widely used in fields such as power frequency regulation, energy recovery, and uninterrupted power supply.. This paper proposes a design scheme for the magnetic bearing of a high-power flywheel energy storage system, utilizing a support method combining radial and axial heavy-load electromagnetic bearings. The finite element method is used to complete the electromagnetic performance simulation analysis of the system. Furthermore, a multi-physics coupled model is established to perform a bidirectional coupling analysis between the electromagnetic field and the thermal field, enabling a comprehensive evaluation of the temperature distribution of the magnetic bearings under different current conditions.The results show that the performance of the designed heavy-duty electromagnetic bearing meets the design requirements, and the natural air-cooling method can ensure the safe operation of the system. Although reducing the coil current contributes to improved thermal safety, it also leads to a decrease in electromagnetic force. Therefore, the design of magnetic bearings in flywheel energy storage systems must achieve a proper trade-off between thermal management and electromagnetic performance.
