[0009] An electromagnetic field coupling model between the magnetic ring current sharer and the parallel power cable is obtained, and several magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer are determined. The electromagnetic field coupling model is simulated based on the several magnetic ring compensation parameters and the current impedance, so as to determine the impedance compensation mapping relationship of each magnetic ring compensation parameter to the current impedance based on the second simulation result of the electromagnetic field coupling model.

[0010] The impedance compensation sensitivity matrix is ​​determined based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship, and the values ​​of the magnetic ring compensation parameters are set according to the impedance compensation mapping relationship and the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix to optimize the current sharing of the parallel power cables.

Furthermore, based on the accurate determination of the current impedance, an electromagnetic field coupling model is established, and the impedance compensation mapping relationship between the magnetic ring compensation parameters and the current impedance is determined. This precisely quantifies the impact of changes in the magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer on impedance compensation and current deviation improvement. Thus, the setting of the magnetic ring compensation parameters can be considered from a global perspective, and the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix is ​​used to improve the current sharing optimization efficiency.

[0025] This application embodiment uses the verification error between the theoretical impedance and the first simulated impedance to determine whether the three-dimensional finite element model and the equivalent circuit model are accurate. If the verification error meets the preset conditions, the model is determined to be accurate. At the same time, the current impedance is determined by the weighted average calculation method, which further improves the accuracy of impedance analysis of parallel power cables and provides an accurate data basis for subsequent precise quantification of the impact of changes in the magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer on the degree of impedance compensation and current deviation improvement.

[0032] The magnetic ring compensation parameters and the impedance compensation amount are fitted to determine the mapping relationship between each magnetic ring compensation parameter and the impedance compensation for the current impedance based on the fitting results.

[0033] This application embodiment uses the controlled variable method to analyze the impedance compensation of each magnetic ring compensation parameter to the current impedance, and fits the mapping relationship between the change of magnetic ring compensation parameter and the impedance compensation value. This allows for precise quantification of the impact of the change of magnetic ring compensation parameter of the magnetic ring current sharer on impedance compensation. The impedance compensation mapping relationship can accurately characterize the impedance change caused by the value of the magnetic ring compensation parameter to the parallel power cable, which is beneficial for accurately setting the magnetic ring compensation parameter to achieve current sharing optimization of the parallel power cable.

[0038] The impedance compensation sensitivity matrix is ​​generated based on the compensation sensitivity classification.

[0039] This application embodiment determines the degree of influence of each magnetic ring compensation parameter on the impedance compensation of the parallel power cable through impedance compensation mapping relationship, and then generates an impedance compensation sensitivity matrix based on the degree of impedance compensation influence. The impedance compensation sensitivity matrix is ​​used to characterize the quantitative relationship of the current sharing improvement effect of each magnetic ring compensation parameter, which is beneficial to improving the adjustment efficiency of the magnetic ring compensation parameters.

[0040] Optionally, in some embodiments of this application, setting the value of the magnetic ring compensation parameter according to the impedance compensation mapping relationship and the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix to optimize current sharing of the parallel power cable includes:

[0044] The values ​​of the magnetic ring compensation parameters are set according to the aforementioned value selection scheme so that the current flowing through the parallel power cable meets the target current sharing ratio.

[0045] By determining the priority of the magnetic ring compensation parameters, the order in which multiple magnetic ring compensation parameters are adjusted is clarified. Based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship, the values ​​of each magnetic ring compensation parameter are precisely set according to the priority order, thereby compensating the impedance of the parallel power cable from the current impedance to the target impedance. This not only further refines the dynamic control process of impedance compensation and improves the efficiency of current sharing optimization, but also makes the magnetic ring compensation parameter value scheme more adaptable to actual complex working conditions. This greatly improves the uneven current distribution in the parallel power cable, enhances the reliability of the parallel power cable, and contributes to achieving power transmission safety.

[0051] The parallel power cable current sharing optimization device proposed in this application improves the accuracy of impedance analysis by determining the current impedance through a simulation impedance determination module and a current impedance determination module. Furthermore, based on the accurate determination of the current impedance, the impedance compensation mapping module determines the impedance compensation mapping relationship between the magnetic ring compensation parameters and the current impedance, precisely quantifying the impact of changes in the magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer on impedance compensation and current deviation improvement. This allows the current sharing optimization module to consider the setting of the magnetic ring compensation parameters from a global perspective and improves the current sharing optimization efficiency by utilizing the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix. Consequently, it can optimize the current sharing of parallel power cables under complex operating conditions, significantly improving the uneven current distribution of parallel power cables, enhancing their reliability, and contributing to power transmission safety.

[0063] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0064] To meet the surging demand for power transmission capacity brought about by urbanization and the integration of new energy sources into the grid, traditional overhead lines are gradually being replaced by high-voltage cables. To improve overall transmission capacity, multiple high-voltage cables of the same phase are typically connected in parallel to form a power cable network to meet the required transmission capacity. For example... Figure 1As shown, the parallel power cable includes two cables, Cable1 and Cable2, connected in parallel, as well as a circuit breaker QF, a current transformer CT, and a voltage transformer PT.

[0065] In some applications, laying parallel power cables underground or on the seabed can significantly reduce space occupation and the impact of electromagnetic radiation on the surrounding environment. However, in actual projects where parallel power cables are laid underground or on the seabed, the limitations imposed by underground pipelines, geological conditions, or marine topography result in non-straight laying configurations, including complex conditions such as bending (insufficient minimum bending radius), twisting (local deformation caused by construction errors), or crossing (multiple cables crossing each other). These conditions disrupt the ideal electromagnetic symmetry, leading to uneven load current distribution due to impedance differences in the parallel power cables. At the same time, the electric field distortion in non-straight laying areas causes distortion of the induced voltage value of the metal sheath in some locations, which can easily accelerate insulation aging and cause local overheating faults, seriously affecting the power transmission safety of parallel power cables.

[0066] According to an embodiment of this application, an embodiment of a current sharing optimization method for parallel power cables based on a magnetic ring current sharer is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0067] This embodiment provides a current sharing optimization method for parallel power cables based on a magnetic ring current sharer, which can be used in high-voltage transmission systems containing the aforementioned parallel power cables. Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a current sharing optimization method for parallel power cables according to an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps:

[0068] Step S1: Simulate the three-dimensional finite element model of the parallel power cable, and determine the first simulated impedance of the parallel power cable based on the first simulation results of the three-dimensional finite element model.

[0069] Specifically, this application embodiment establishes a three-dimensional finite element model based on finite element simulation software. This mainly includes building the electro-magnetic coupling environment of the cable, and geometric modeling of the busbar, cable, and soil domain. The continuous physical field is discretized into finite elements using the three-dimensional finite element model. By solving the Maxwell equations corresponding to the three-dimensional finite element model, the complex electromagnetic characteristics of the parallel power cable in three-dimensional space, such as magnetic field distortion, current distribution, and sheath voltage, are simulated to obtain a first simulation result. This first simulation result is then used to determine the first simulated impedance. The first simulation result characterizes the distribution of parameters such as current density and voltage of the parallel power cable, thus reflecting the impedance of the parallel power cable.

[0070] Step S3: Obtain the equivalent circuit model of the parallel power cable, determine the theoretical impedance of the parallel power cable based on the equivalent circuit model, and determine the current impedance of the parallel power cable based on the theoretical impedance and the first simulation impedance.

[0071] Specifically, in this embodiment, an equivalent circuit model of parallel power cables is built in MATLAB based on the cable parameters in actual engineering. In this equivalent circuit model, the electrical parameters of the parallel power cables are quantified into equivalent impedance parameters and equivalent inductive reactance parameters. The theoretical impedance is then calculated using these parameters. Furthermore, the theoretical impedance is used to verify the first simulated impedance, thereby reducing simulation errors and ensuring an accurate current impedance.

[0072] Step S5: Obtain the electromagnetic field coupling model between the magnetic ring current sharer and the parallel power cable, and determine several magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer. Simulate the electromagnetic field coupling model based on the several magnetic ring compensation parameters and the current impedance, so as to determine the impedance compensation mapping relationship of each magnetic ring compensation parameter to the current impedance based on the second simulation results of the electromagnetic field coupling model.

[0073] Specifically, this application embodiment utilizes an electromagnetic field coupling model between a magnetic ring current sharer and a parallel power cable to determine the mapping relationship between each magnetic ring compensation parameter and impedance compensation, thereby achieving precise quantification between the changes in magnetic ring current sharer parameters and the current sharing optimization effect, providing accurate quantitative basis for subsequent current sharing optimization of parallel power cables.

[0074] Step S7: Determine the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship, and set the values ​​of the magnetic ring compensation parameters based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship and the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix to optimize the current sharing of the parallel power cables.

[0075] Specifically, in this embodiment, the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix is ​​determined based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship. The impedance compensation sensitivity matrix can characterize the quantitative relationship between the change of the magnetic ring current sharer parameters and the degree of improvement of the deflection rate. Thus, the magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer are dynamically adjusted using the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix to improve the adjustment efficiency of the magnetic ring compensation parameters.

[0076] Therefore, the current sharing optimization method for parallel power cables provided in this embodiment determines the current impedance through three-dimensional finite element model simulation and equivalent circuit model calculation, which improves the accuracy of impedance analysis of parallel power cables. Under the premise of accurately determining the current impedance, an electromagnetic field coupling model is established and the impedance compensation mapping relationship between the magnetic ring compensation parameters and the current impedance is determined. This accurately quantifies the impact of changes in the magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer on the degree of impedance compensation and current deviation improvement. Thus, the setting of the magnetic ring compensation parameters can be considered from a global perspective, and the current sharing optimization efficiency is improved by using the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix. In this way, current sharing optimization of parallel power cables can be achieved for complex working conditions, which greatly improves the uneven current distribution of parallel power cables, improves the reliability of parallel power cables, and is conducive to achieving power transmission safety.

[0077] In some embodiments of this application, the construction process of the above-mentioned three-dimensional finite element model includes:

[0078] First, a field model is constructed in the finite element simulation software based on Ampere's law and the law of conservation of current. Specifically, appropriate magnetization models, conductivity conduction models, and dielectric models are added during the field model construction process.

[0079] Subsequently, the above-mentioned field model was set according to the geometric parameters of the parallel power cables. Specifically, a specific model of the parallel power cables was built from aspects such as cable geometry, spatial distribution, and positional distribution between each phase of the parallel cables. Based on the material parameters of common cables in actual engineering, reasonable material parameters were set for the busbar, cable conductor, insulation, metal sheath, and outer sheath in the model. Finally, a reasonable soil resistivity was set, and a soil domain was created around the cable, with the boundary set as an infinite element domain to obtain a three-dimensional finite element model.

[0080] In one example of an embodiment of this application, a parallel power cable of model 64 / 110YJLW02 is used as an example. Its relevant parameters are shown in Table 1, and thus the following can be constructed: Figure 3 The three-dimensional finite element model shown includes six cables: a1, a2, b1, b2, c1, and c2.

[0081] Table 1

[0082]

[0083] Furthermore, the geometric parameters of the parallel power cables include the cable busbar parameters. The field model is set according to the cable busbar parameters to determine the cable busbar interface in the three-dimensional finite element model based on the setting results.

[0084] In some embodiments of this application, step S1 above further includes the following steps:

[0085] Step S11: Apply a three-phase power frequency voltage excitation at the cable busbar interface to obtain the first simulation result of the three-dimensional finite element model responding to the three-phase power frequency voltage excitation.

[0086] Specifically, this application embodiment simulates the operation of a three-dimensional finite element model under the excitation of a three-phase power frequency voltage to adapt to the actual working conditions of parallel power cables. During the simulation, the first simulation results can be displayed through heat maps, contour maps, etc. The heat maps or contour maps can reflect the current density and voltage distribution of the three-dimensional finite element model in response to the excitation of a three-phase power frequency voltage. That is, the first simulation results characterize the bias current situation of the three-dimensional finite element model in response to the excitation of a three-phase power frequency voltage.

[0087] Step S12: Determine the impedance calculation parameters based on the first simulation results, and determine the first simulation impedance based on the impedance calculation parameters.

[0088] Specifically, in this embodiment, the bias current condition is determined based on the first simulation result, and the impedance calculation parameters related to the bias current condition are extracted using a probe, thereby calculating the first simulated impedance using the open-circuit-short-circuit method. The open-circuit-short-circuit method is an experimental method for calculating cable impedance parameters by applying open-circuit and short-circuit boundary conditions. In this embodiment, for lines with bias current conditions, the open-circuit voltage, short-circuit voltage, line current, and other impedance calculation parameters can be extracted using a probe to obtain the first simulated impedance.

[0089] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, the first simulated impedance is an impedance matrix that includes the simulated self-impedance and simulated mutual impedance between each cable. Taking six cable conductors a1, a2, b1, b2, c1 and c2 as an example, the first simulated impedance is shown in Table 2.

[0090] Table 2

[0091]

[0092] In this embodiment, a three-phase power frequency voltage excitation is applied at the cable busbar interface in a three-dimensional finite element model to simulate the excitation conditions of parallel power cables in actual operation. This makes the obtained first simulation results more consistent with the actual working conditions, thereby making the impedance calculation parameters and the first simulation impedance determined based on the first simulation results more accurate. This provides a precise data basis for setting magnetic ring compensation parameters to achieve current sharing optimization.

[0093] In some embodiments of this application, step S3 above further includes the following steps:

[0094] Step S31: The parallel power cables are equivalent to several branches, which are used as an equivalent circuit model.

[0095] Specifically, taking the parallel power cable including the six cables a1, a2, b1, b2, c1 and c2 mentioned above as an example, the cable cores of cables a1, a2, b1, b2, c1 and c2 are equivalent to six branches, and the corresponding metal sheaths na1, na2, nb1, nb2, nc1 and nc2 of each cable are equivalent to six branches. Each branch can be equivalent to electrical components such as resistance, capacitance and inductance with corresponding parameters based on the physical characteristics of the cable core / metal sheath material itself and the mutual coupling effect between cables. Thus, these branches are constructed into equivalent circuit models based on MATLAB.

[0096] Step S32: Determine the AC resistance parameters of several branches, so as to determine the equivalent self-impedance of several branches based on the AC resistance parameters.

[0097] Specifically, the cable core and the corresponding metal sheath are both equivalent to the superposition of AC resistance and self-inductance. Therefore, the AC resistance parameter of each branch is shown in the following formula (1):

[0098]

[0099] In the formula, The AC resistance parameters of the branch are... The DC resistance parameter of the branch is... This represents the cable type coefficient, where y = 1 for single-core, dual-core, and triple-core cables, and y = 1.5 for conduit cables. The skin effect coefficient, This is the proximity effect coefficient.

[0103] Skin effect coefficient The calculation formula is shown in the following formula (3):

[0104]

[0105] In the formula, z is calculated as shown in formula (4) below:

[0106]

[0107] In the formula, The cable frequency is expressed in Hz. The first coefficient is for conductor type, where the conductor type of the cable is copper core. The value is 1.

[0108] Proximity effect coefficient The calculation formula is shown in the following formula (5):

[0111] Based on the above formulas (1) to (5), the AC resistance parameters of several branches can be calculated. Furthermore, the equivalent self-impedance of the i-th branch is calculated based on the following formula (6). for:

[0112]

[0113] In the formula, The AC resistance per unit length is the same as the above. Related, unit is Ω. Soil resistivity, measured in Ω•m. The equivalent diameter of the conductor / shield is in meters (m).

[0114] Step S33: Determine the equivalent mutual impedance between branches, and determine the theoretical impedance based on the equivalent self impedance and the equivalent mutual impedance.

[0115] Specifically, the equivalent self-impedance between the i-th branch and the j-th branch is calculated based on the following formula (7). for:

[0116]

[0117] In the formula, Let be the conductor / shield distance between the i-th branch and the j-th branch.

[0118] Furthermore, based on the equivalent self-impedance and equivalent self-impedance The theoretical impedance is obtained, that is, the theoretical impedance includes the equivalent self-impedance. and equivalent self-impedance The impedance matrix is ​​shown in Table 3. Taking six cables a1, a2, b1, b2, c1, and c2 as an example, the theoretical impedances are shown in Table 3.

[0120]

[0121] Step S34: Determine the verification error between the theoretical impedance and the first simulated impedance. If the verification error meets the preset conditions, calculate the weighted average of the theoretical impedance and the first simulated impedance, and determine the current impedance based on the calculation result.

[0122] Specifically, the two impedance matrices shown in Tables 2 and 3 are compared. If the verification error determined by the comparison is less than a preset value, the verification error is determined to meet the preset condition, and the current impedance is obtained by weighted averaging. Preferably, if the verification error is less than 5%, the verification error meets the preset condition; otherwise, the three-dimensional finite element model and the equivalent circuit model need to be corrected.

[0123] For example, in the first simulated impedance, the core inductance of cable a1 was 0.0203 H / km, while in the theoretical impedance, it was 0.0223 H / km, resulting in a verification error of 8.97%. Subsequently, combining the theoretical basis of the formula derivation with the verification of various material and environmental parameters during the simulation, the cause was determined to be that the solution domain of the Comsol simulation was not set large enough, causing the equivalent Carson depth in the formula to not be effectively simulated in the model. Therefore, the solution domain size was corrected in the three-dimensional finite element model, setting the soil domain boundary to 1300m, and the core inductance of cable a1 was re-extracted as 0.0224 H / km, reducing the verification error to 0.4%.

[0124] Furthermore, the loop matrix equation of the equivalent circuit model can also be obtained based on Kirchhoff's voltage law, as shown in the following formula (8):

[0125] Formula (8);

[0126] In the formula, This represents the mutual impedance between metal sheaths na1 and na2; the mutual impedances between other metal sheaths can be deduced similarly. This represents the mutual impedance between cable conductor a1 and the metal sheath na2. The mutual impedances between other conductors and the metal sheath can be deduced similarly. This represents the mutual impedance between cable conductors a1 and c2; the mutual impedances between other conductors can be deduced similarly. to This represents the sheath current in the six branches from na1 to nc2 of the metallic sheath. to This represents the current flowing through the conductors in the six branches from conductor a1 to c2 of the cable. , and This indicates the three-phase voltage applied to both ends of the parallel cable.

[0127] The above current to The simulation results are cross-validated with the simulated current flowing through each cable obtained from the 3D finite element model to ensure the accuracy of the 3D finite element model and the equivalent circuit model, and to enable verification. to Analyze the current deviation of parallel power cables.

[0128] This application embodiment equates several cables to several branches to obtain an equivalent circuit model, and then solves the equivalent circuit model to calculate the theoretical impedance. This facilitates subsequent verification between the first simulated impedance and the theoretical impedance, thereby improving the accuracy of impedance analysis for parallel power cables. Furthermore, this application embodiment uses the verification error between the theoretical impedance and the first simulated impedance to determine the accuracy of the three-dimensional finite element model and the equivalent circuit model. If the verification error meets preset conditions, the model is deemed accurate. Simultaneously, the current impedance is determined through a weighted average calculation method, further improving the accuracy of impedance analysis for parallel power cables. This provides an accurate data foundation for subsequently precisely quantifying the impact of changes in the magnetic ring compensation parameters of the magnetic ring current sharer on impedance compensation and the degree of current deviation improvement.

[0129] In some embodiments of this application, step S5 above further includes the following steps:

[0130] Step S51: Adjust the three-dimensional finite element model according to the current impedance.

[0131] Specifically, the relevant parameters in the three-dimensional finite element model are set according to the current impedance determined in step S34.

[0132] Step S52: Construct a magnetic ring current equalizer model based on finite element simulation software, and add the magnetic ring current equalizer model to the adjusted three-dimensional finite element model to obtain an electromagnetic field coupling model.

[0133] Specifically, such as Figure 4As shown, the magnetic ring current equalizer includes magnets 101, 102, and 103, as well as fasteners 2, adjusting device 3, and housing 5. When magnets 101, 102, and 103 wrap around cable 4, their high permeability significantly increases the inductive reactance of cable 4. By adjusting the air gap width A, the magnetic reluctance of the magnetic circuit is changed, thereby dynamically adjusting the inductance value. The magnets are composed of multiple fan-shaped annular magnet blocks 101, 102, and 103 assembled into a ring shape surrounding the outside of cable 4. The magnet material is high-permeability silicon steel sheet or ferrite. Fasteners 2 are used to fix adjacent magnet blocks without air gaps. The adjusting device 3 includes a fixing element 31 and a regulator 32, which form a threaded or snap-fit ​​structure. The fixing element 31 is mounted on the housing 5 of the magnet block with an air gap. The regulator 32 is movably connected to the fixing element 31. By adjusting the air gap width A between adjacent magnet blocks, the inductive reactance is changed, thereby achieving impedance compensation. In addition, the cable near the magnet is equipped with an LCD display that serves as a current monitoring device to show the magnitude of the cable current.

[0134] This application embodiment utilizes finite element simulation software to construct a magnetic ring current sharer model. Based on Ampere's law and the law of conservation of current, appropriate magnetization, conductivity, and dielectric models are added during the field construction process. Based on this, and using... Figure 4 The structure shown demonstrates the construction of a geometric model for the magnetic ring current equalizer, with dimensional parameters suitable for the constructed cable model and material parameters conforming to actual engineering requirements.

[0135] The constructed magnetic ring current sharer model is then added to the adjusted three-dimensional finite element model, and the excitation of the three-phase power frequency voltage source is applied again to simulate the electromagnetic field coupling between the magnetic ring current sharer and the parallel power cable.

[0136] Step S53: Use the controlled variable method to change the values ​​of several magnetic ring compensation parameters, and simulate the electromagnetic field coupling model under different values ​​of the magnetic ring compensation parameters, so as to determine the second simulated impedance of the parallel power cable based on the second simulation results.

[0137] Specifically, the magnetic ring compensation parameters include at least one of the magnetic ring thickness, magnetic ring height, and magnetic ring air gap opening angle of the magnetic ring flow equalizer.

[0138] The effect of changes in the aforementioned magnetic ring compensation parameters on impedance compensation was simulated using finite element simulation software. For example, the magnetic ring thickness, air gap opening angle, and material parameters were kept constant in the simulation. Specifically, the inner diameter of the magnetic ring was set to 0.0363 m, the outer diameter to 0.05 m, and the air gap opening angle to 20°. The magnetic ring height was then changed to 0.01 m, 0.015 m, and 0.02 m, and the second simulation results and corresponding second simulation impedances were recorded. The specific process can be found in step S12 above. Similarly, the probe was used to extract the relevant impedance calculation parameters from the second simulation results, and the second simulation impedance was calculated using the open-circuit-short-circuit method.

[0139] Similarly, for the other magnetic ring compensation parameters, the value of one of the magnetic ring compensation parameters is changed while keeping the other magnetic ring compensation parameters unchanged, so as to determine the second simulation impedance through the second simulation results.

[0140] Step S54: Based on the difference between the second simulated impedance and the current impedance, determine the impedance compensation amount corresponding to different values ​​of the magnetic ring compensation parameter.

[0141] Specifically, the difference between the second simulated impedance and the current impedance characterizes the impedance compensation effect of the magnetic ring current sharer on the parallel power cable. It should be noted that in some embodiments of this application, the aforementioned impedance compensation amount is the equivalent compensation inductance value generated by the magnetic ring current sharer.

[0142] Taking the impedance compensation effect of the magnetic ring current sharer on cable a1 as an example, the second simulation result is as follows: Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, by Figure 5 It can be seen that the height of the magnetic ring is positively correlated with the compensating inductance, and the height of the magnetic ring mainly affects the self-inductance of the corresponding cable, while its effect on the compensation of the mutual inductance is negligible. Figure 6 It can be seen that when only cable a1 is equipped with a magnetic ring current sharer, its influence on the self-inductance of other phase cables around it is very small and can be basically ignored. At the same time, it can be observed that as the height of the magnetic ring increases, the self-inductance compensation value of the cable affected by the magnetic ring current sharer increases in a positive correlation.

[0143] Taking the impedance compensation effect of the magnetic ring current equalizer on cable a2 as an example, the second simulation result is as follows: Figures 7 to 9 As shown, where, Figure 7 This illustrates the effect of magnetic ring height on impedance compensation. Figure 8 This shows the effect of magnetic ring thickness on impedance compensation. Figure 9 This illustrates the effect of the air gap opening angle of the magnetic ring on impedance compensation.

[0144] Depend on Figure 7 It can be seen that as the height of the magnetic ring increases, the impedance compensation of the magnetic ring current sharer for cable a2 increases positively. From... Figure 8 It can be seen that as the thickness of the magnetic ring increases, the impedance compensation of the magnetic ring current sharer for cable a2 increases positively. From... Figure 9 It can be seen that as the opening angle of the air gap of the magnetic ring increases, the impedance compensation of the magnetic ring current sharer for cable a2 increases positively. Furthermore, the magnetic ring current sharer has no significant impact on the mutual inductance between cable a2 and other phase cables. That is, the impedance compensation effect of the magnetic ring current sharer for parallel power cables is mainly reflected in self-inductance compensation, and its influence on the mutual inductance value is negligible.

[0145] Step S55: Fit the magnetic ring compensation parameters and impedance compensation amount to determine the mapping relationship between each magnetic ring compensation parameter and the impedance compensation for the current impedance based on the fitting results.

[0146] Specifically, by fitting the magnetic ring compensation parameters and impedance compensation amounts, the influence of changes in the magnetic ring compensation parameters on impedance compensation can be quantified. Therefore, based on the aforementioned impedance compensation mapping relationship, the impedance compensation amounts corresponding to different values ​​of the magnetic ring compensation parameters can be determined.

[0147] This application embodiment uses the controlled variable method to analyze the impedance compensation of each magnetic ring compensation parameter to the current impedance, and fits the mapping relationship between the change of magnetic ring compensation parameter and the impedance compensation value. This allows for precise quantification of the impact of the change of magnetic ring compensation parameter of the magnetic ring current sharer on impedance compensation. The impedance compensation mapping relationship can accurately characterize the impedance change caused by the value of the magnetic ring compensation parameter to the parallel power cable, which is beneficial for accurately setting the magnetic ring compensation parameter to achieve current sharing optimization of the parallel power cable.

[0148] In some embodiments of this application, step S7 above further includes the following steps:

[0149] Step S71: Determine the degree of influence of each magnetic ring compensation parameter on the impedance compensation of the parallel power cable based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship.

[0150] Specifically, the aforementioned impedance compensation mapping relationship can be considered as a fitted relationship between the magnetic ring compensation parameters and the impedance compensation amount, and this fitted relationship is a positive correlation function. Therefore, the degree of influence of impedance compensation can be determined based on the slope of this fitted relationship. The larger the slope of the fitted relationship, the greater the influence of the change in the magnetic ring compensation parameters on the impedance compensation amount, that is, the more sensitive the impedance compensation amount is to the change in the magnetic ring compensation parameters.

[0151] The above impedance compensation mapping relationship can also be the impedance compensation amount corresponding to the magnetic ring compensation parameters that change by a preset step. Therefore, the greater the change in impedance compensation amount, the greater the influence of the change in the magnetic ring compensation parameter on the impedance compensation amount.

[0152] Step S72: Determine the compensation sensitivity level based on the degree of influence of impedance compensation.

[0153] Specifically, the magnitude of the impact of impedance compensation is set into compensation sensitivity levels. The higher the impact of impedance compensation, the higher the level of compensation sensitivity.

[0154] Step S73: Generate an impedance compensation sensitivity matrix based on the compensation sensitivity classification.

[0155] Specifically, the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix is ​​used to characterize the degree of influence of each magnetic ring compensation parameter on the impedance compensation of each phase cable. Therefore, in the subsequent current sharing optimization process, the magnetic ring compensation parameters with a greater degree of impedance compensation influence are adjusted first.

[0156] Step S74: Determine the target flow rate and obtain the target impedance corresponding to the target flow rate.

[0157] For example, the adjusted three-dimensional finite element model is simulated to obtain the simulated current flowing through each cable corresponding to the current impedance, and the current imbalance is determined to be 15% based on the simulated current. The target current equalization is determined to be 5%, thereby determining the target impedance corresponding to the 5% target current equalization.

[0158] Step S75: Determine the priority of the magnetic ring compensation parameters based on the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix.

[0159] Specifically, if a small change in a parameter representing a magnetic ring compensation in the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix can cause a large change in impedance compensation, thus significantly affecting the current sharing effect, then that magnetic ring compensation parameter has a high priority during adjustment. Conversely, if a parameter change has little impact on impedance compensation and current sharing, its priority is low.

[0160] When optimizing current sharing of parallel power cables, the magnetic ring compensation parameters that have a more significant impact on the current sharing effect can be adjusted first according to the actual working conditions, thereby achieving the current sharing optimization goal more efficiently, avoiding blind parameter adjustment, and improving the efficiency and accuracy of the entire current sharing optimization process.

[0161] Step S76: Determine the value scheme of the magnetic ring compensation parameters based on the target impedance, current impedance, impedance compensation mapping relationship and priority.

[0162] Specifically, the amount to be compensated is determined based on the difference between the target impedance and the current impedance. Then, the adjustment order of each magnetic ring compensation parameter is determined according to priority: first, the magnetic ring height is adjusted, then the magnetic ring thickness is adjusted, and finally the magnetic ring air gap opening angle is adjusted. Based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship, the value scheme of magnetic ring height, magnetic ring thickness and magnetic ring air gap opening angle is determined so that the impedance compensation amount corresponding to the value scheme can meet the above-mentioned amount to be compensated.

[0163] For example, to reduce the current imbalance from 15% to 5%, finite element simulation parameter scanning and numerical calculations determine that the self-inductance of cable a2 needs to be compensated to be 222.69 nH / m. Based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship obtained from previous simulations, a set of values ​​is obtained: the magnetic ring height is 0.025m, the magnetic ring thickness is 0.055m, and the magnetic ring air gap opening angle is 10°.

[0164] Step S77: Set the values ​​of the magnetic ring compensation parameters according to the value selection scheme so that the current flowing through the parallel power cable meets the target current sharing.

[0165] Specifically, the above value scheme is applied to the magnetic ring current sharer corresponding to each phase cable to verify through simulation whether the current imbalance has decreased from 15% to 5%. If the target current sharing ratio is not achieved, the above magnetic ring compensation parameters are adjusted until the target current sharing ratio requirement is met.

[0166] This application embodiment determines the degree of influence of each magnetic ring compensation parameter on the impedance compensation of parallel power cables through impedance compensation mapping relationship, and then generates an impedance compensation sensitivity matrix based on the degree of impedance compensation influence. The impedance compensation sensitivity matrix is ​​then used to characterize the quantitative relationship of the current sharing improvement effect of each magnetic ring compensation parameter, which is beneficial to improving the adjustment efficiency of magnetic ring compensation parameters.

[0167] Furthermore, by determining the priority of the magnetic ring compensation parameters, the order in which multiple magnetic ring compensation parameters are adjusted is clarified. Thus, based on the impedance compensation mapping relationship, the values ​​of each magnetic ring compensation parameter are precisely set according to the priority order, thereby compensating the impedance of the parallel power cable from the current impedance to the target impedance. This not only further refines the dynamic control process of impedance compensation and improves the efficiency of current sharing optimization, but also makes the magnetic ring compensation parameter value scheme more adaptable to actual complex working conditions. This greatly improves the uneven current distribution in the parallel power cable, enhances the reliability of the parallel power cable, and contributes to achieving power transmission safety.

The current sharing optimization module is used to determine the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix according to the impedance compensation mapping relationship, and set the value of the magnetic ring compensation parameter according to the impedance compensation mapping relationship and the impedance compensation sensitivity matrix, so as to optimize the current sharing of the parallel power cable.
