基于虚拟现实技术的水轮发电机组运行仿真

Hydroelectric Generating Units Operation Simulation Based on Virtual Reality Technology

随着各种大型、特大型水轮发电机组的陆续投产,大量训练有素而且专业技术过硬的水轮发电机组运行和检修人员越显稀缺。同时,水轮发电机组的安全稳定运行对保证电力系统的安全性和稳定性具有重大的影响力,也对水轮发电机组的运行和维护等相关技术人员素质提出了更高的要求。三维可视化运行仿真培训是现代培训体制的全新模式。设计了水轮发电机组运行仿真系统结构功能,开展水轮发电机组运行仿真培训系统研究。利用3ds Max建立水电站的关键设备模型,结合水轮机开停机流程及操作,制作相应的三维动画。利用虚拟现实平台(VRP)进行后期仿真、交互开发,实现了水轮发电机组由实际三维空间向虚拟现实空间的转化,提高学员的感性认知,深化了培训效果。实际运行验证了系统的有效性。

With a variety of large and extra-size hydropower generating units brought into production ,trained and professional opera-tors in hydropower station are becoming increasingly scarce .Meanwhile ,the safe and stable operation of hydroelectric generating u-nits ,which has a significant influence on the safety and stability of power systems ,sets a higher requirement for operators and main-tainers of hydroelectric generating units .Three-dimensional visualization operation simulation training is the new mode of modern training system .The structure and function of the operation simulation training system of hydroelectric generating units are de-signed ,and research on the training system is conducted .By using 3ds Max ,the key models of devices are built and the 3d anima-tions according to the process and operation of the start-up and closing down of turbines are conducted .Simulation and interactive de-velopment are made on Virtual Reality Platform （VRP） ,so as to transform hydroelectric generating units from actual three-dimen-sional space to virtual reality space ,which improves trainees＇perceptual cognition and enhances the training effect .The actual opera-tion proves the effectiveness of the system .
