Description

Technical Field

[0002] In modern power systems, 10kV cables, as an important part of power transmission, are widely used in urban distribution networks, industrial production and other fields. However, due to the long-term operation of cables in complex environmental conditions, various faults are prone to occur, resulting in power transmission interruptions or safety accidents. Therefore, accurately and quickly locating the cable fault point is of great significance for timely repairing the fault and restoring power supply. Power cable fault location technology is a key skill that power workers must master. In order to improve the fault location skills of the staff, it is also very necessary to conduct regular detection skills training for them.

[0003] In the traditional on-site training process, operators need to carry high-voltage pulse generators, oscilloscopes, resistor dividers and other equipment, which requires a lot of equipment handling and connection work. The operation process is cumbersome and complicated, consuming a lot of time and manpower, and it is difficult to be widely used in training. Secondly, the high-voltage pulses applied in on-site testing are dangerous and pose a threat to the safety of operators. In addition, factors such as electromagnetic interference and noise in the on-site environment will interfere with the test signal and affect the accuracy of fault location. The existing simulation training method usually provides training content for operators based on a virtual simulation system with a computer graphical interface. It cannot allow users to truly feel the environment and operation experience of being in the actual test site, and it is difficult to effectively improve the user's actual operation skills.

[0050] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solution of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0051] The embodiment of the present application provides a virtual simulation system, which includes VR devices, other interactive input devices such as handles, and a computer host with powerful computing power. The virtual simulation system includes a data processing module, a scene simulation module, an interactive control module, and a result display module. Among them, the data processing module is responsible for accurately processing fault model data, user operation data, and various environmental parameter data; the scene simulation module uses advanced three-dimensional modeling technology and physical simulation algorithms to generate highly realistic simulation training scenes in real time according to data processing results, including cable laying environment, test instruments and equipment, fault phenomena, etc.; the interactive control module receives the operation instructions issued by the user through handles, gestures or other input devices through high-precision sensors and advanced signal reception and conversion technology, and quickly and accurately converts them into system-recognizable signals to achieve natural interaction between users and virtual scenes; the result display module uses high-definition display technology and intuitive data presentation methods to display test results, fault location information, operation prompts, etc. in a clear and easy-to-understand form in the VR device, so that users can understand the operation feedback and simulation results in a timely manner.

[0052] The technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, a simulation method for power cable fault location provided in an embodiment of the present application is applied to a preset virtual simulation system, including:

[0054] S101: Collect power cable fault instances, and establish a fault model for simulating various power cable fault types according to the power cable fault instances.

[0055] From the historical power cable fault data, the fault instances of 10kV power cables are collected. Each power cable fault instance includes cable parameters, fault location information, fault parameters and other information. The role of the power cable fault instance is to analyze the fault characteristics corresponding to different types of faults, so as to establish a fault model that can simulate various types of power cable faults. In the fault model, it is necessary to fully consider the size and variation range of the fault resistance, the distribution possibility of the fault location on the cable line, the different types of grounding methods (such as single-point grounding, multi-point grounding, etc.), and the formation and development process of the fault. The influence of factors such as the generation and propagation of fault signals. By loading the fault model, the virtual simulation system can simulate different types of power cable faults. Based on these power cable faults, the user can control the corresponding interactive equipment to simulate the fault detection operation, so as to obtain the corresponding fault location results and fault parameters.

[0056] The cable can be abstracted as a uniform transmission line model. Based on the uniform transmission line model, the power cable transmission characteristics can be determined. For a power cable with a length of x, its corresponding power cable transmission characteristics (voltage and current) can be expressed as:

[0057]

[0058] Where V(x,t) represents the voltage of the power cable at position x at time t; is the characteristic impedance, is the signal propagation speed, R f is the fault resistance, x 0 is the fault location, V 1 and I(ξ,t) are the related voltage and current parameters, j represents the imaginary unit, ω is the angular frequency, and ξ represents the initial phase;

[0059]

[0060] Where I(x,t) represents the current of the power cable at position x and time t; I 1 and V(ξ,t) are the relevant voltage and current parameters.

[0061] Through the above equations, the propagation and change of voltage and current in the power cable can be described, so as to simulate the generation and propagation of fault signals, and then construct a fault impedance model for simulating various power cable fault types. The fault impedance model can be expressed as:

[0062]

[0063] Among them, Γ f is the reflection coefficient at the end of the cable. If the end of the cable is open (Z f =∞), then Γ f =1; Z f The impedance at the end of the cable, Z 0 represents the characteristic impedance of the fault location, e -2γ(l-x) An exponential term representing the signal propagation related to the cable;

[0064] It should be noted that the existence of a fault point will cause changes in the signal transmission characteristics at that point. Common cable fault types can be divided into open circuit, short circuit, high resistance, and low resistance faults. For open circuit faults, according to the fault impedance model, when the end of the cable is open, Z f =∞, then Z l =-Z c , so by adjusting Z f For short-circuit faults, the fault resistance R fFor high-resistance faults, adjust the fault resistance R according to the actual resistance size and variation range of the high-resistance fault. f For low resistance fault, similar to high resistance fault, by setting appropriate lower fault resistance R f value to simulate a low resistance fault.

[0065] It can be seen that by adjusting the fault parameters, different types of power cable faults can be simulated. However, due to the differences in characteristics between power cables and the different types of power cables used in different usage scenarios, it is also necessary to build fault models corresponding to different power cable fault instances based on the cable parameters and fault impedance model of the power cable. The fault model integrates multiple types of power cable fault instances and can simulate various types of faults in different types of power cables. Therefore, in the actual simulation process, after specifying a specific fault type through the fault model, the user can conduct specific fault location training for that fault type.

[0066] It should be noted that the fault model constructed above needs to be optimized before it can be applied to simulation training. Therefore, after the fault location simulation is performed through the fault model, it is necessary to simulate the power cable fault instance based on the fault model, that is, specify several power cable fault types, and locate the power cable fault based on the power cable fault type, so as to obtain the corresponding location results and fault parameters. The fault parameters mainly include fault resistance, capacitance, fault signal propagation speed, etc. By comparing the fault parameters with the actual fault parameters corresponding to the cable fault instance, it can be determined whether the simulation results obtained by the fault model are consistent with the actual fault instance. If it is consistent, it means that the current fault model can simulate each fault type more accurately and provide more accurate fault information. If it is not consistent, it means that the current fault model needs to be optimized. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the fault parameters that are significantly different from the actual fault parameters based on the comparison results, and then determine the cable parameter types that can affect the accuracy of the fault parameters. They are the cable parameter types that need to be adjusted in the end. Cable parameter types include at least conductor parameters (such as material, cross-sectional area, shape, etc.), insulation parameters (such as material, thickness, dielectric constant, etc.), cable structure parameters (such as number of cores, twisting method, etc.), electrical performance parameters (such as resistance, capacitance, inductance values ​​and their changing frequency with frequency, temperature, humidity, etc.), and signal propagation speed.

[0067] After determining the type of cable parameters that need to be adjusted, the cable parameters contained in the cable parameter type can be adjusted. The following are several examples of cable parameter adjustment: (1) Conductor parameter adjustment: If the resistance is inconsistent with the resistance in the actual power cable fault example, the cross-sectional area of ​​the conductor needs to be adjusted according to the resistance formula (Where R is resistance, ρ is resistivity, L is length, and S is cross-sectional area), appropriately increase or decrease the cross-sectional area to change the resistance value. (2) Insulation parameter adjustment: If the capacitance value is different from the actual value, you can adjust the capacitance value according to the capacitance formula (where C is capacitance, ε is dielectric constant, S is plate area, and d is plate spacing), adjust the dielectric constant to correct the capacitance value. You can also change the inductance and capacitance by increasing the number of cores or changing the twisting method, according to the formula (where L is the inductance, μ is the magnetic permeability, N is the number of turns of the coil, S is the cross-sectional area of ​​the coil, and l is the length of the coil). By adjusting these parameters, the values ​​of inductance and capacitance can be changed, thereby adjusting the signal propagation speed and attenuation. (3) Fault resistance adjustment: Assume that the fault resistance is R f , and the cable resistance R c In series, the current in the circuit is I, and the power supply voltage is V, then: V = I × (R c +R f ), when adjusting the actual fault resistance, directly adjust R according to the size and variation range of the actual fault resistance. f The value of is modified to the corresponding value. (4) Signal propagation speed adjustment: According to the formula (where v is the signal propagation speed, L is the inductance, and C is the capacitance), and the propagation speed is changed by adjusting the inductance or capacitance. The adjusted cable parameters can be used to update the fault model. After obtaining the updated fault model, the power cable is re-simulated and positioned, and the re-simulated fault parameters are compared with the actual fault instance to determine whether there is a difference between them, until the difference between the fault parameters and the actual fault parameters meets the preset difference range, and the final optimized fault model is obtained.

[0068] S102: Determine the training stage that the user is in, and select a target power cable fault type that matches the training stage from a plurality of power cable fault types corresponding to the fault model.

[0069] Power cables are usually laid in urban cable tunnels, factory distribution rooms, substations and other locations. For power cables in different locations, the common fault types are different. Therefore, in order to provide users with more targeted simulated fault data, it is necessary to set up a variety of training scenarios when conducting simulation training for users. The detection skills and difficulty that users need to learn in each training scenario are different.

[0070] Since the user's training stage can be divided into multiple levels, the difficulty of the skills required for training in each training stage is also different. Therefore, it is necessary to select the power cable fault type related to the current training scenario as the candidate power cable fault type based on the various power cable fault types provided by the fault model, and then select the matching target power cable fault type as the user's training target according to the user's current training stage.

[0071] Specifically, the training stage is divided into the initial training stage, the platform training stage and the convergence training stage according to the different training progress. In different training stages, the degree of mastery of fault location by users varies. Generally speaking, the initial training stage refers to the user's new contact with power cable fault location training, the platform training stage refers to the user's ability to handle some common cable faults but is still not proficient in complex faults, and the convergence stage refers to the user's strong ability to handle rare and difficult-to-diagnose faults. The division of the training stage is determined based on the user's historical training data. If a user does not have historical training data, it can be directly determined that it is in the initial training stage. For users with historical training data, it is necessary to determine the power cable fault type that the user participates in training in each training process and its corresponding operation evaluation value based on the historical training data. The operation evaluation value is an indicator value obtained by comprehensive evaluation based on whether the user's operation position is accurate, whether the equipment used is correct, and whether the time for discharge and power testing is reasonable. It is used to evaluate the user's operation accuracy. Generally speaking, the higher the operation evaluation value, the better the user's mastery of this type of fault type.

[0072] After obtaining the operation evaluation value corresponding to each power cable fault type, a specified power cable fault type whose operation evaluation value is less than a preset value is selected. The preset value is used to determine whether the user can pass the minimum training requirements. When the operation evaluation value corresponding to the specified power cable fault type is less than the preset value, it means that the user cannot pass the passing standard required by the fault type. Therefore, for these specified power cable fault types that have not passed the training requirements, the training stage of the current user can be determined by analyzing their corresponding training results. The training results can be characterized by the growth amount of the operation evaluation value. Specifically, for the specified power cable fault type, the growth amount of the corresponding operation evaluation value of the specified power cable fault type in different training processes is determined. According to the growth amount of the operation evaluation value generated in each training process and the previous training process, the training stage of the user can be determined. Among them, the training stage includes at least three training stages, namely, the initial training stage with a growth amount greater than the first growth amount, the platform training stage with a growth amount less than the first growth amount and greater than the second growth amount, and the convergence training stage with a growth amount less than the second growth amount.

[0073] It should be noted that since there may be multiple designated power cable fault types, when judging the training stage based on the growth amount, the training stage corresponding to each designated power cable fault type may not be the same. However, when determining the user's training stage, it is evaluated based on the user's overall training progress. Therefore, when determining multiple different training stages, it is necessary to consider the impact of the slowest designated power cable fault type on the training stage judgment results.

[0074] Specifically, it is determined whether there is any specified power cable fault type whose corresponding growth amount is greater than the first growth amount. If so, it is determined that the training stage of the user is the initial training stage. If not, it is necessary to determine whether the growth amount corresponding to any specified power cable fault type is less than the first growth amount and greater than the second growth amount. If so, it is determined that the training stage of the user is the platform training stage, otherwise, it is determined that the training stage of the user is the convergence training stage. In other words, as long as there is a growth amount corresponding to a certain specified power cable fault type in a training stage with a slower progress, the slowest training stage will be directly selected as the training stage of the user. For example, the fault type of short circuit fault is in the initial training stage, and the fault type of low resistance fault is in the platform training stage. According to the above judgment principle, the training stage of the user is finally the initial training stage. When the training progress of users on different fault types is different, by paying attention to the training stage with the slowest training progress, it can be ensured that users learn the detection skills corresponding to different fault types more comprehensively, and ensure that users of various types of power cable faults can fully master them.

[0075] After determining the training stage the user is in, it is necessary to clarify the training objectives of the current training stage. Specifically, each training stage has its corresponding standard operation evaluation value. The standard operation evaluation value is a comprehensive evaluation value corresponding to the operation requirements expected to be achieved in a training stage, and the standard operation evaluation value is positively correlated with the growth amount. From the various power cable fault types corresponding to the fault model, the power cable fault types whose corresponding operation evaluation values ​​are lower than the standard operation evaluation values ​​are selected as the target power cable fault types that match the training stage. The target power cable fault types finally screened out indicate that the user's operation effects on them have not yet reached the expected level, so these target power cable fault types need to be used as the training focus of the current training stage. By screening the target power cable fault types in different training stages, resources can be concentrated to improve the processing capabilities of these types of faults in a targeted manner, thereby improving the overall training effect of the user.

[0076] S103: Loading a fault model and a preset electromagnetic interference model to generate a simulation training scenario for a target power cable fault type, and receiving an operation instruction sent by a user through an interactive device in the simulation training scenario.

[0077] After clarifying the content that the current user needs to be trained on, the virtual simulation system needs to build a simulated training scenario for simulating fault location. Based on the simulated training scenario, users can wear high-resolution, low-latency VR glasses and use ergonomically designed handles and other input devices to operate. During the entire simulation training process, the user's dress code, correct wearing of safety equipment, selection and use of tools and other preparatory work links need to be simulated accordingly, and for core operation processes such as discharge, electrical testing, instrument use, cable connector removal and installation, high-precision physical simulation and animation technology are required for fine simulation. According to the established fault model, the fault parameters corresponding to various target power cable fault types are simulated in real time and dynamically, and finally the corresponding simulation positioning results are fed back to the user's operation.

[0078] It should be noted that when simulating fault location of power cables, the impact of on-site environmental factors on simulation results must also be considered. Generally, there will be a certain amount of electromagnetic interference at the test site, resulting in errors in instrument readings. Therefore, in order to more accurately simulate the actual detection process and enable users to experience the complexity and diversity of the real working environment, the virtual simulation system needs to load the fault model and the preset electromagnetic interference model at the same time when building the simulation training scene, so as to add corresponding environmental interference to the simulation training scene and generate a simulation training scene for the target power cable fault type. In the simulation training scene, users can wear VR equipment and use input devices such as handles to simulate the detection of power cables. After the user takes corresponding operations through the input device, the computer host can receive the operation instructions sent by the user through the interactive device in the simulation training scene, such as discharge, power test, etc.

[0079] Among them, the electromagnetic interference model tests the impact on the simulated training environment by simulating electromagnetic interference sources of different frequencies, intensities and sources. The electromagnetic interference model can cause the waveform of the pulse signal displayed on the oscilloscope UI to be deformed, and the measurement of the peak and time parameters to deviate, thereby causing errors in the key parameters such as the arrival time and amplitude of the fault reflection wave read, thereby affecting the accuracy of fault location. The electromagnetic interference model can be expressed as:

[0080] E=E 0 +k 1 f(I,V,d,t)

[0081] H=H 0 +k 2 g(I,V,d,t)

[0082] Among them, E 0 and H 0 are the electric and magnetic field strengths, k 1 and k 2is a constant, f and g are functions constructed based on electromagnetic theory and actual measurement data, which are used to describe the influence of factors such as current I, voltage V, distance d and time t on the electric field and magnetic field strength.

[0083] S104: converting the operation instruction into operation parameters corresponding to the power cable to be located, locating the fault in the power cable according to the operation parameters and the power cable parameters corresponding to the power cable, so as to obtain corresponding fault information and realize fault simulation positioning of the power cable.

[0084] According to the operation instructions sent by the user, the computer host needs to convert them into operation parameters corresponding to the power cable to be located. The operation parameters need to include information such as specific operation tools, operation positions, and operation time. According to the operation parameters and the power cable parameters corresponding to the power cable, the faults existing in the power cable can be located, thereby obtaining the corresponding fault information and realizing the fault simulation location of the power cable.

[0085] In one embodiment, the computer host needs to determine whether the operating parameters match the target operating parameters corresponding to the target power cable fault type when locating the fault. If they match, it means that the current user operation is correct, and the corresponding fault information can be simulated and output and fed back to the user. At this time, it is necessary to collect the reflected wave corresponding to the pulse signal sent by the power cable in response to the operation instruction, and extract the fault characteristics in the reflected wave through wavelet transform; wherein the fault characteristics include at least one or more of the following: signal arrival time, reflected wave amplitude, reflected wave frequency. According to the fault characteristics, the distance between the fault point in the power cable and the measurement point corresponding to the operation instruction is calculated to obtain the fault information corresponding to the power cable.

[0086] Specifically, after obtaining the signal arrival time t, the signal propagation speed in the cable is known to be v. First, based on the signal propagation speed and signal arrival time, the total round trip distance of the signal in the cable can be calculated S = v × t. Since the arrival time of the reflected wave is measured, the signal actually travels a round trip in the cable, so the distance L from the fault point to the measurement end is calculated by the following formula:

[0087] However, in actual situations, the structural parameters of the cable also need to be considered. If the cable has branches or uneven parts, the propagation speed may need to be corrected according to the specific structure of the cable. Assuming that the cable is composed of parts of different materials or cross-sectional areas, the cable can be divided into n segments, each of which has a length of L i , it is known that the propagation speed of the signal in the cable is v i .

[0088] Then the total stroke S can be expressed as:

[0089] The distance L from the fault point to the measuring end is:

[0090] In addition, the amplitude reflects the severity of the fault and the energy of the reflected wave; the frequency characteristics help to determine the type and nature of the fault. For example, different fault types may cause the reflected wave to have different frequency components. Different fault types correspond to different frequency characteristics. The frequency components of the reflected wave corresponding to a point grounding fault may be relatively simple, mainly concentrated in the lower frequency band. Multi-point grounding faults may produce more complex frequency components distributed in multiple frequency bands. For faults caused by insulation aging, the frequency of the fault signal may be more obvious in the mid-frequency band. The frequency characteristic is the frequency of the fault signal. By analyzing the frequency characteristics, it can assist in determining the type and nature of the fault. For example, if the low-frequency components of the detected reflected wave are strong and concentrated, it may indicate a single-point grounding fault; if there is significant energy distribution in multiple frequency bands, it may be more inclined to a multi-point grounding fault.

[0091] In one embodiment, the initially extracted fault features are corrected by combining fault model data, cable parameters (such as cable length, material, cross-sectional area, etc.), and signal propagation speed information. For example, the propagation speed of the signal in the cable is accurately calculated based on the material and structure of the cable; the arrival time and amplitude of the reflected wave are corrected by considering the influence of the fault resistance on the signal reflection and attenuation; the attenuation degree of the signal is compensated according to the laying environment and length of the cable, etc.

[0092] For example, for a cable of a specific material (such as copper) and structure (such as single-core with insulation), its dielectric constant and magnetic permeability are known, and the propagation speed is calculated using electromagnetic formulas. Assuming that the measured arrival time of the reflected wave is t0, the estimated fault resistance is R f After determining the fault resistance information in the power cable according to the fault model, the delay time Δt caused by the fault resistance can be calculated according to the fault resistance information. Then, the signal arrival time can be corrected according to the delay time. The corrected arrival time is the sum of the delay time and the signal arrival time, expressed as t = t 0 +Δt. If the original reflected wave amplitude is A 0 , the attenuation coefficient due to the fault resistance is calculated to be α, then the corrected amplitude is A = A 0 / α. For a cable with a length of L laid in a specific environment, the attenuation coefficient in the environment is known to be β, and the measured reflected wave amplitude is B 0 , then the amplitude after compensation is B = B 0 ×β L .
