Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a highly sensitive multi-terminal flexible DC transmission line protection method and system based on high-frequency modulus components, belonging to the field of relay protection technology, especially the field of transmission line protection in relay protection. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous expansion of renewable energy power generation and the increasing demand for inter-regional power grid interconnection, multi-terminal flexible DC transmission technology has become a key technology for building a new generation of power grids and achieving optimal energy allocation due to its outstanding advantages such as flexible control, ease of grid connection, and ability to supply power to passive networks. However, when a fault occurs in a multi-terminal flexible DC power grid transmission line, the fault current rise rate (d) i / d t The fault threshold is extremely high, and can usually reach the safety threshold that endangers converter station devices within a few milliseconds. Therefore, line protection must be able to accurately identify faults in a very short time (usually around 3ms).

[0003] Currently, protection schemes applied to DC lines mainly draw on the experience of AC systems or DC systems at both ends, and can be divided into traditional traveling wave protection methods, differential undervoltage protection methods, longitudinal differential protection, and high-frequency component protection methods based on wavelet transform. Traditional protection methods typically use the amplitude and rate of change of the fault modulus traveling wave to identify faults, but they face problems with weak tolerance to fault transition resistance and interference resistance. Regarding differential undervoltage protection methods, because undervoltage differential protection utilizes the output DC voltage, the measured information includes not only reverse traveling waves but also forward traveling waves, making the protection criterion's action performance significantly affected by traveling wave reflections. Although traveling wave protection using polar waves is unaffected by line reflections, it still faces the problem of unreliable fault identification when the protection time window is short. As for longitudinal differential protection, although it has absolute selectivity in principle, the long transmission line distances and inherent communication channel delays do not meet the speed requirements of multi-terminal flexible DC grids. While wavelet transform-based high-frequency component protection methods are more sensitive to the detection of singularities and abrupt changes, thus improving the sensitivity of the protection method to some extent, they still face challenges such as wavelet basis selection and susceptibility to noise, making it difficult to achieve a good balance between sensitivity and speed.

[0004] Existing technology CN115015687A discloses a method and system for fault location in a four-terminal ring-shaped flexible DC power grid. However, the line mode wave impedance selected in this scheme is a constant value, while the electrical characteristics of high-voltage transmission lines are affected by frequency, and this scheme does not consider this influencing factor. Furthermore, this patent is mainly applied to fault location and does not explain how to distinguish between faults within and outside the transmission line area. Existing technology CN115097253A discloses a method and system for fault location in an MMC-HVDC DC transmission line, but this scheme only achieves fault location and does not explain how to distinguish between faults within and outside the transmission line area.

[0005] Therefore, this invention proposes a highly sensitive multi-terminal flexible DC transmission line protection method based on high-frequency modulus components to improve the sensitivity of protection methods more effectively. Summary of the Invention

[0072] Table 2 Transmission Line Parameters

[0073] Next, we will take typical operating conditions A and B as examples to further illustrate the method of the present invention.

[0074] Operating condition A: Output power is rated power, fault location is f1, positive terminal is grounded, and transition resistance is 1500Ω; Operating condition B: Output power is rated power, fault location is f2, bipolar short circuit, metallic fault.

[0075] When operating under conditions A and B Figure 8 This refers to the positive voltage at each protection point of the multi-terminal flexible DC power grid. Figure 9 This refers to the negative voltage at each protection point of the multi-terminal flexible DC power grid. Figure 10 These are the characteristic components of a multi-terminal flexible DC power grid operating under condition A. Figure 11 The amplitude-frequency diagrams of the characteristic components at point N of the protection device are shown under operating conditions A and B. Figure 12 These are the characteristic components of a multi-terminal flexible DC power grid operating under condition B.

[0076] Based on the positive and negative voltages of operating conditions A and B, it can be seen that the voltage amplitude of operating condition B is greater than that of operating condition A. While voltage amplitude alone is insufficient for effectively detecting fault areas, both conditions can be effectively started, allowing for accurate analysis of the positive and negative voltages.

[0077] For operating condition A, utilizing Figure 8 and Figure 9 The accumulated zero-mode voltages at protection points M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, and T are -1046.07kV, -1123.96kV, -1011.73kV, -930.40kV, -793.67kV, -749.21kV, -1228.23kV, and -912.20kV, respectively. These values ​​are all much lower than -200kV, indicating a positive ground fault, consistent with the preset fault. Furthermore, the line-mode voltage at each protection point is decomposed into eight layers using MVMD, and the fourth-layer time-frequency component is obtained as the characteristic component, such as... Figure 10 As shown. Figure 11 The Fourier amplitude-frequency diagrams of the characteristic components at point N of the protection device are given under operating condition A. Figure 11 This indicates that the time-frequency component effectively includes frequency components greater than 2000Hz, thus enabling the acquisition of adaptive voltage peak values ​​at each protection point. AP The values ​​are 4382.07, 8750.78, 7.64, 20.81, 33.03, 1.13, 0.28, and 0.20, respectively. Only the values ​​at protection M and protection N are among these. APThe value is greater than the threshold of 1100, which indicates that the proposed single-ended quantity protection method can effectively determine the fault area.

[0078] For condition B, utilizing Figure 8 and Figure 9 The accumulated zero-mode voltages at protection points M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, and T are -7.6419kV, -3.8024kV, -8.8343kV, -8.4493kV, -4.0884kV, -4.4436kV, -4.9976kV, and -8.1113kV, respectively. These values ​​are all between -200kV and 200kV, indicating a bipolar fault, consistent with the preset fault. Furthermore, the MVMD method is used to perform an 8-level decomposition of the line-mode voltage at each protection point in condition B, selecting the fourth-level component as the characteristic component, such as... Figure 12 As shown. This allows for the acquisition of adaptive voltage peak values ​​at each protection point. AP The values ​​are 780.81, 189.3, 9.20, 15.50, 189.43, 608.00, 6.56, and 1.621, respectively. All these values ​​are less than the threshold of 1100 and are therefore classified as out-of-area faults, consistent with the actual settings. Additionally, Figure 11 The Fourier amplitude-frequency diagram of the characteristic components at point N of the protection under operating condition B is also given. The amplitude of operating condition B is much smaller than that of operating condition A, which also shows the correctness of the theoretical analysis results.
