Description

Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a fault-tolerant active position control system and method for an offshore structure,

The present invention relates to a fault tolerant active position control system and method for a floating offshore structure such as a ship, an offshore plant, and an underwater robot.

3, in the case of a floating offshore structure 10 such as a ship, an offshore plant, or an underwater robot, a plurality of propellers 15 are used to maintain a working position or to move out of a dangerous situation And performs active position control. And a plurality of generators, a controller, a power source, and a control line are installed and operated in case a failure of some of the propeller 15 fails to exert its function.

However, this leads to complexity of the initial design due to the redundancy of each device in the active active position control, and causes a large problem in limited space utilization. There is also an additional cost for redundant equipment, which is a major obstacle to the efficiency of maintenance and operation.

Ship's dynamic position control system (Patent Application No. 10-2014-0052160)

The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the above problems. In the active position control of an offshore structure, even if each equipment is not installed in a redundant manner, when a failure occurs in a certain propeller, And to provide a fault tolerant active position control system and method for an offshore structure.

According to an aspect of the present invention,

1. An offshore structure for performing active position control using a plurality of propellers,

An algorithm generation unit for generating a fault tolerance algorithm of the remaining propeller when a failure of some propeller is determined; And

A controller for controlling the output and direction of the propeller according to the fault tolerant algorithm;

To provide a fault tolerant active position control system for an offshore structure.

The control unit may be operated automatically by a computer apparatus or may be manually operated by a human operator.

The failure discrimination unit discriminates whether the propeller is faulty by comparing the control signal of the control unit and the operation signal of the inverter, and if the control signal and the operation signal do not match, it is determined that the propeller is faulty.

The inverter includes a motor for propeller rotation of the propeller and a motor for azimuth.

The inverter is matched one-to-one with a plurality of propulsors to individually control each propeller. To this end, the same number of inverters as the plurality of propellers are connected one-to-one to the respective propulsors, It is connected to the propeller simultaneously.

The failure determining unit may determine the number and position of the failed propulsion system, the operating state of the failed propulsion system (whether the failed propulsion system is completely stopped or operated but differently from the control system), the current position of the offshore structure .

The algorithm generating unit calculates the relative distance and direction between the current position and the target position of the offshore structure, and generates the fault tolerant algorithm based on the relative distance and direction.

The algorithm generating unit generates one or more fault tolerant algorithms, and if more than two fault tolerant algorithms are generated, the control unit may select some or all of the fault tolerant algorithms by setting a difference to the various fault tolerant algorithms.

The fault tolerance algorithm comprises an instruction to individually set the output and direction of a normally operating throttle, in which case the fault tolerant algorithm is set such that the output and direction of the throttle are both set differently, or vice versa, And only the output and direction of the propeller are set to be the same.

If the failed propeller has stopped operating completely,

And generates a fault tolerance algorithm consisting solely of the output and direction of the remaining normally operating thrusters.

And a command for setting the output and direction of the remaining normally operating thrusters in consideration of the current output and the direction of the failed thrust engine, Generate a permissive algorithm.

The control unit determines whether to continue the operation of the propeller according to the information of the GPS or the DGPS. In this case, when the oceans return to the target position radius, The operation is stopped or the operation of the propeller is continued to maintain the position of the offshore structure or the change in the output and direction of the propeller is selectively performed.

According to the present invention, when a failure occurs in some propeller of an offshore structure, smooth active position control can be performed through the fault tolerance algorithm of the remaining propeller. As a result, It is possible to obtain great economic benefits throughout the initial design, fabrication, installation and operation of complex offshore structures.

1 is a schematic operational flowchart of a fault tolerant active position control system of an offshore structure according to the present invention;
2 is a view illustrating an active position control according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Figure 3 shows a typical arrangement of a propeller for active position control of an offshore structure.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description of the present invention, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may make the subject matter of the present invention rather unclear.

1 is a schematic operational flowchart of a fault tolerant active position control system for an offshore structure according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a view illustrating an active position control according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the present invention is applied to a floating offshore structure (hereinafter, referred to as 'offshore structure') 10 that performs active position control using a plurality of propellers 15, Includes the fault discrimination section 13, the algorithm generation section 14, and the control section 11. Here, the term " offshore structure 10 " is a concept including a vessel, an offshore plant, and an underwater robot.

The control unit 11 performs an integrated function for active position control of the offshore structure 10 such that the control unit 11 may be operated automatically by a computer device or manually by a human operator .

The control unit 11 generates a control signal (current or voltage) for the operation of the inverter 12 primarily. The inverter 12 operates the propeller 15 in accordance with the control signal of the controller 11. In the present invention, the inverter 12 is a concept including both a propeller-driven motor of the propeller 15 and an articulation motor, and the propeller 15 is connected to the operation of the inverter 12 with respect to the propeller- The output (speed) of which changes according to the operation of the inverter 12 or the direction of the inverter 12 related to the azimuthless motor. Therefore, the output and the direction of the propeller 15 are adjusted in accordance with the control signal of the control unit 11 in principle. Here, 'in principle' means the case where the propeller 15 does not fail and operates normally. When the propeller 15 is operated, an operating signal (current or voltage) of the inverter 12 is generated according to the operating state value thereof. Of course, if the propeller 15 is operating normally, the control signal of the controller 11 and the operating signal of the inverter 12 coincide.

On the other hand, the inverter 12 is matched one-to-one with a plurality of propellers 15 to individually control each propeller 15. This may be in the form of one-to-one connection of the same number of inverters 12 as the propeller 15 to each propeller 15 and one inverter 12 may be connected simultaneously to the plurality of propellers 15 .

In the active position control situation, the control unit 11 determines whether to continue the operation of the propeller 15 according to the information of the satellite navigation system (GPS) or the satellite navigation correction system (DGPS) 16. [ The control unit 11 receives the information of the GPS or the DGPS 16 in real time. If the offshore structure 10 detects the fact that the offshore structure 10 is out of the working position, (10) is returned to its original position by controlling the output and the direction and when the returning fact is sensed through a satellite navigation system (GPS) or a satellite navigation correction system (DGPS) . Of course, in this case, the propeller 15 may be continuously operated or the output and direction of the propeller 15 may be changed to maintain the original position.

The fault discrimination unit 13 receives the control signal (current or voltage) of the control unit 11 and the operation signal (current or voltage) of the inverter 12 and compares the control signal with the operation signal, It is determined whether or not it is faulty. In this case, the failure determining unit 13 determines that the propeller 15 is operating normally when the control signal and the operation signal coincide with each other, and determines that the propeller 15 has failed if the control signal and the operation signal do not coincide with each other. The reason that the control signal and the operation signal do not coincide is that the propeller 15 does not operate as the control unit 11 adjusts.

At this time, the fault discrimination unit 13 not only discriminates the fact of the failure of the propeller 15 but also discriminates the number and position of the faulty propeller 15 and the operating state of the faulty propeller 15. Here, 'to determine the operation state of the faulty propeller 15' means that the faulty propeller 15 has completely stopped operating or is operated but discriminates whether the controller 11 operates differently from the adjustment . Further, the fault discrimination unit 13 discriminates the current position of the offshore structure 10. [ This is possible when the failure discriminating unit 13 receives information of the GPS (Global Navigation Satellite System) or the DGPS (Satellite Navigation System) 16 from the control unit 11 in real time.

In this regard, FIG. 2 will be described as an example. In FIG. 2, the offshore structure 10 has six propellers 15 from P1 to P6 for performing active position control. In principle, the control signals of the control unit 11 and the operation signals of the inverter 12 for the six propulsion units 15 will coincide with each other. In this case, the failure determination unit 13 determines that all the propulsion units 15 operate normally . However, if the P3 propeller 15 completely stops operating due to a fault, the control signal of the control unit 11 to the P3 propeller 15 and the operation signal of the inverter 12 will not coincide with each other. That is, any one or more of the current or voltage value among the control signal of the control unit 11 and the operation signal of the inverter 12 do not coincide with each other. In this case, the failure determining unit 13 determines that the P3 propeller 15 is completely stopped due to a failure, and determines the current position of the offshore structure 10.

The algorithm generation unit 14 receives information of the failure discrimination unit 13 when a failure occurs in the propeller 15. The information of the failure discrimination unit 13 includes information on the number and position of the failed propulsion system 15, the operational state of the failed propulsion system 15, and the current position of the offshore structure 10. [ The algorithm generation unit 14 generates an algorithm for performing an active position control based on the fault tolerance algorithm of the remaining propeller 15 that normally operates, that is, the remaining propeller 15 that operates normally, based on the information of the failure discrimination unit 13, . The controller 11 accepts the fault tolerance algorithm of the algorithm generator 14 and controls the output and direction of the remaining propeller 15 that operates normally according to the fault tolerant algorithm. 2, the algorithm generation unit 14 generates the fault tolerance algorithm for the remaining P1, P2, P4, P5 and P6 propellant 15 except for P3, and accordingly, the control unit 11 calculates P1, P2, P5, and P6 actuators 15 to perform active position control.

Hereinafter, the function of the algorithm generating section 14 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 2 assumes that the current position of the offshore structure 10 is not less than the target position (the target position is, in most cases, the work position).

The algorithm generation unit 14 first calculates a relative distance and a direction between the current position and the target position of the offshore structure 10 and based on the calculated relative distance and direction on the basis of an appropriate fault tolerance algorithm for allowing the offshore structure 10 to move into the target position radius .

2, when the offshore structure 10 is deviated from a predetermined target position radius due to an external force such as wind, waves, ice or the like, the control unit 11 controls the GPS (Global Positioning System) 16 to control the six propellers 15 to move to the target position in accordance with the attitude (heading angle, etc.) of the offshore structure 10. [ In principle, if all six propellers 15 are in normal operation and out of the target position radius, the six propellers 15 will rotate azimuthally toward their respective target positions and then gradually increase the output to move to the target position The active position control will be performed while changing the direction in real time according to the attitude change of the offshore structure 10.

However, when the P3 propeller 15 is completely stopped due to a failure, a fault tolerant algorithm is operated which controls the output of the remaining propeller 15 in accordance with the current failure situation. P3, P5, and P6 propulsors (15) are larger than the output sum of the P1 and P2 propellers (15) when the P3 propeller (15) fails, the safety and mobility of the offshore structure (10) Problems can arise. At this time, for example, the output of each of the P4, P5, and P6 propellers 15 is compared with the output of each of the P1 and P2 propellers 15 so that the marine structure 10 is generated to about 33% It is possible to carry out the fault tolerant algorithm so that the moving speed of the mobile station can be stably moved even if it is late.

In this case, one or more fault tolerant algorithms may be generated. If more than two fault tolerant algorithms are generated, the control section 11 may select some or all of the fault tolerant algorithms with a difference.

The fault tolerant algorithm also includes an instruction to individually set the output and direction of the normally operating propeller 15. Therefore, in the example of FIG. 2, the normal operation of the P1, P2, P4, P5, P6 propeller 15 is set separately for its output and direction. This is because the outputs and directions of the propellers 15 of the P1, P2, P4, P5 and P6 are set to be different from each other or vice versa, or only the output and direction of some of the propellers 15, such as two or three, And the like.

On the other hand, if the operation state of the faulty propeller 15, that is, whether the faulty propeller 15 has completely stopped operating or not, but the operation of the algorithm generating section 14 depending on whether the controller 11 operates differently from the adjustment The form may vary.

If the failed propeller 15 has completely stopped operating, the algorithm generator 14 generates a fault tolerance algorithm consisting solely of the output and direction of the remaining normally operating propeller 15. However, if the faulty propeller 15 is operating but the control 11 operates differently than the control 11, the algorithm generator 14 generates both types of fault tolerance algorithms: The first is to generate a fault tolerance algorithm consisting solely of the output and direction of the remaining normally operating propeller 15, in which case the fault tolerant algorithm includes an instruction to stop the operation of the failed propeller 15. The second case is the generation of a fault tolerance algorithm consisting of the output and direction of both the faulty propeller 15 and the rest of the normally operating propeller 15 where the fault tolerant algorithm includes the current output of the faulty propeller 15 And setting the output and direction of the remaining normally operating thrusters 15 in consideration of the direction.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to FIG.

S1: The control unit 11 receives information of the satellite navigation system (GPS) or the satellite navigation correction system (DGPS) 16 in real time.

S2: When the control unit 11 detects that the offshore structure 10 is out of the target position radius (work position), it generates a control signal for operating the inverter 12.

S3: The inverter 12 operates the propeller 15 according to the control signal of the control unit 11 and generates an operation signal according to the operation state value.

S4: The fault discrimination unit 13 compares the control signal of the control unit 11 with the operation signal of the inverter 12 to determine whether the propeller 15 is faulty or not. If the control signal and the operation signal coincide with each other, the fault discrimination unit 13 determines that the propeller 15 is operating normally. In this case, the algorithm generation unit 14 does not operate.

S5: A satellite navigation system (GPS) or a satellite navigation correction system (DGPS) 16 generates position change information of the offshore structure 10 in real time in accordance with the operation of the propeller 15. When the offshore structure 10 returns to the target position radius, the control unit 11 basically stops the operation of the propeller 15. However, it may be possible to continue operating the propeller 15 or to vary the output and direction of the propeller 15 to maintain the original position.

S6: In S4, the failure determining unit 13 determines that the propeller 15 has failed if the control signal and the operating signal do not coincide with each other. In this case, the algorithm generating unit 14 adds the information of the failure determining unit 13 Based on the fault tolerance algorithm of the remaining propeller 15, that is, the algorithm for performing active position control only with the remaining propeller 15 that is normally operating.

S7: The control unit 11 generates a control signal for adjusting the remaining propeller 15 operating normally according to the fault tolerant algorithm. Hereinafter, the processes of S3, S4, and S5 are repeated.

According to the above process, when failure occurs in some propeller 15 of the offshore structure 10, smooth active position control can be performed through the failure tolerance algorithm of the remaining propeller 15. Therefore, there is no need to install redundant equipment such as a generator, a controller, a power supply, and a control line in a full active position control as in the past, and thereby, a very large economic profit can be achieved throughout the initial design, manufacture, installation and operation of a complex offshore structure Can be obtained.
