Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electrical equipment state detection and diagnosis, and in particular to a multi-band passive filter circuit shaft voltage diagnosis and suppression device and method. Background Art

[0002] When a rotor shaft of a high-speed rotating electrical machine is operating normally, a certain shaft voltage will be generated. If the shaft voltage suppression and protection measures are not appropriate, once a circuit is formed, shaft current will be generated. A strong shaft current will generate electric arcs, rapidly deteriorate lubrication, and cause electro-corrosion of the shaft neck and bearing alloy, resulting in failures. At the same time, a strong shaft current will also cause serious equipment magnetization, leading to failures such as vibration, resulting in shutdown accidents.

[0003] During the operation of the unit, the main reasons for the possible generation of shaft voltage mainly include the following three aspects:

[0004] 1. Shaft voltage and its hazards caused by electrostatic effects

[0005] The shaft voltage generated by electrostatic effects is mainly in the form of a high potential on the rotor large shaft caused by the accumulation of static charges. When the steam end grounding brush is in good contact, the static charges can transfer the potential to the ground potential through the steam end grounding brush; due to insufficient tightness after the brush wears, oil stains or other impurities interference, it may cause the large shaft at the steam end to be unable to be grounded well, thus causing a significant increase in the shaft voltage of the rotor large shaft.

[0006] Due to the friction between dry steam and turbine blades in the low-pressure cylinder of a large steam turbine generator set, high-speed steam generates static charges on the turbine rotor, or due to poor shaft seals of the steam turbine connected coaxially with the generator, high-speed steam leaks along the shaft or steam jets at high speed in the cylinder, etc., causing the shaft to carry static charges. The static charges charge the shaft capacitance related to the grounding condition, thereby generating shaft voltage. The shaft voltage induced by the accumulation of static charges. The large shaft of a steam turbine generator set is often composed of many sections of rotating shafts, such as the high-pressure rotor, intermediate-pressure rotor, low-pressure rotor, generator rotor, exciter rotor, and sub-exciter rotor of the steam turbine. These rotors are connected into a whole, called the shafting. The entire shafting is supported by several radial bearings (journal bearings) and axial bearings (thrust bearings). The support points on the shaft are called journal bearings. When the steam turbine generator is running at full speed, the entire large shaft floats on the oil film between all journal bearings and bearing bushes. Therefore, the potential of the large shaft is a floating potential.

[0007] According to the basic theory of electrical engineering, when a metal in a floating potential state rubs against other media, positive or negative static charges will accumulate; when a metal in a floating potential state generates charges and it is difficult to release them (because the oil film of the bearing bush has a high insulation resistance), a high potential may be accumulated. The large shaft of a steam turbine generator set exactly meets these two conditions. Because the high-speed rotation of the steam turbine blades rubs against the steam, the last 1-2 stages of blades rub against the air, the main oil pump impeller of the steam turbine rubs against the lubricating oil, the fan on the generator rotor rubs against hydrogen or air, etc., static electricity will accumulate on the large shaft. The accumulated static charges, whether positive or negative, are concentrated at the tips of the steam turbine blades and rotate at high speed with the steam turbine rotor. Also according to the basic theory of electrical engineering, the static charges rotating at high speed will generate eddy currents on the cylinder wall of the steam turbine. Because the cylinder wall of the steam turbine is made of thick metal and the eddy currents are large, the large eddy currents not only cause energy loss, but also burn the upper and lower joint surfaces of the cylinder and the fastening bolts of the joint surfaces, damaging the equipment. In addition, the high voltage generated by the accumulation of static charges on the large shaft is most likely to generate discharges on the oil film, because the gap size of the oil film is the smallest, which causes the bearing bush to burn and also gradually deteriorates the quality of the lubricating oil.

[0008] The method to solve the above problems is to ground the large shaft. After grounding, the large shaft is no longer a metal body with a floating potential, and the charges are released to the ground through the grounding point, so that the large shaft cannot accumulate charges. The grounding point of the large shaft is generally installed on the shaft section between the low-pressure cylinder of the steam turbine and the generator, because this section of the general steam turbine generator set is the only exposed shaft section.

[0009] 2. Shaft voltage caused by asymmetry of the generator magnetic circuit and its hazards

[0010] The shaft voltage caused by asymmetry of the generator magnetic circuit is mainly composed of a 50Hz fundamental frequency voltage component, accompanied by some 3rd harmonic components of 150Hz and 5th harmonic components of 250Hz.

[0011] Due to the shaft voltage caused by asymmetry of the generator magnetic circuit, according to the reasons for the asymmetry of the magnetic circuit, it can be divided into the following three types:

[0012] 1) Shaft voltage caused by flux asymmetry: It is impossible to ensure absolute symmetry of the magnetic circuit during the manufacture of the generator. Therefore, during the operation of the generator, the magnetic flux linked by the loop formed by the large shaft, bearing, and platen alternates, and an alternating potential will be generated on the large shaft, and this potential has the characteristics of the fundamental wave. When the loop formed by the large shaft, journal, bearing bush, bearing housing, and platen is connected for some reason, due to the very low loop resistance, a large shaft current will be generated, causing damage to the components of the relevant shaft current loop.

[0013] 2) Axial voltage generated by inter-turn short circuit of generator rotor winding: If an inter-turn short circuit occurs, the axial magnetic fluxes generated by the two sets of coils cannot be completely cancelled out, resulting in an axial unbalanced magnetic flux. The more turns short-circuited, the greater the unbalanced axial magnetic flux. When this magnetic flux is superimposed on the axial magnetic flux or the value of the axial magnetic flux itself reaches a certain level, a relatively high monopole voltage will be generated between the journal and the oil film. Once the oil film is broken down, it is very likely to cause damage to the bearing bush.

[0014] 3) Axial voltage generated by magnetization of the motor shaft: After the steam turbine generator set is magnetized for some reason, there are circumferential and axial residual magnetic fields, and monopole voltages are induced by the residual magnetic fields in the rotor and bearing components. As described above, this induced voltage will exist in the bearings and shaft seals, that is, from the blades through the diaphragm, diaphragm sleeve, cylinder, bearings with damaged oil film, and the shaft back to the blades. Thus, a large current can cause damage to the corresponding components, and the magnetic flux generated by this current may also magnetize the steam turbine circumferentially.

[0015] 3. Axial voltage and its hazards caused by external voltage

[0016] The axial voltage caused by external voltage is mainly 300 Hz, that is, the 6th harmonic, and is accompanied by some 50 Hz fundamental frequency voltage components.

[0017] 1) Influence of static excitation device: The high-frequency voltage pulses generated during the commutation of thyristors in the self-excited excitation system will generate high-frequency voltage pulses between the bearing bush and the oil film of the journal. Once the oil film is broken down, it is very likely to cause damage to the parts where the corresponding shaft current flows through.

[0018] 2) Axial voltage generated by the active rotor winding protection device: In the generator rotor protection device, rotor grounding protections such as one-point grounding protection with superimposed DC, one-point grounding excitation protection with superimposed AC voltage admittance principle, and one-point grounding protection of the excitation circuit with superimposed square wave voltage are adopted. In the principle design, axial voltage will be generated between the bearing bush and the oil film of the journal through the coupling of the insulation capacitance and resistance related to the grounding condition. Once the oil film is broken down, it is very likely to cause damage to the parts where the corresponding shaft current flows through.

[0019] In summary, the key to preventing the harm of shaft voltage lies in preventing the formation of a path for shaft current. As long as an effective loop interruption can be achieved, the above problems can be prevented. Therefore, insulation must be used between the bearing at the excitation end of the motor and the generator and the base plate, and between the bearing and the oil pipe to interrupt the path. Since the shaft voltage is usually very small (not higher than 10V), only very low insulation conditions are required to prevent current generation. To limit the shaft voltage and interrupt the loop composed of the shafting, bearing bush, and base, current small units generally install insulating gaskets under the bearing seat on the excitation side of the generator, and large units generally install two layers of insulating gaskets on the bearing ring to let this high-strength insulating material bear the shaft voltage, so as to avoid the oil film being broken down due to excessive voltage. During the operation of the generator, due to installation or other reasons, the insulating gasket may be damaged, aged, or have oil stains accumulated, and then lose its insulating function. Then the entire shaft voltage is applied to the oil film. The oil film during the high-speed rotation of the generator is very thin and is easily broken down and spark discharged. Since the discharge loop resistance composed of the generator shafting, bearing bush, and base is very low, and the voltage energy is large, a relatively large shaft current will be generated, resulting in the burning of the bearing bush babbit and the rapid deterioration of the sealing oil quality.

[0020] In the prior art, Wang Yu (North China Electric Power University) disclosed a measure for preventing and controlling the shaft voltage of a generator in the literature "Research on Shaft Voltage and Electrical Corrosion of Bearing Bush of Large Steam Turbine Generator". The prevention and control of the shaft voltage of the generator is achieved by grounding the RC circuit on the excitation side. However, only 1 group of RC passive filter circuits is set in this literature, and only the monitoring of a single frequency component (300Hz) of the shaft voltage can be realized, that is, the interference of high-frequency pulse signals generated by the thyristor commutation of the static excitation system is excluded; the monitored shaft voltage frequency range is narrow.

[0021] Therefore, for large generators, during operation, due to improper measures for suppressing and protecting the shaft voltage, harmful shaft currents are generated at components such as the generator bearings, bearing bushes, and gears, which can cause oil film breakdown, electrical corrosion of the bearing bushes, and electrochemical corrosion. In severe cases, it may cause a significant increase in the vibration of the generator bearing bushes, accelerate the deterioration of the lubricating oil quality, hydrogen leakage from the unit, and even shutdown accidents. How to measure abnormal shaft voltage and how to suppress shaft voltage is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of how to measure and suppress abnormal shaft voltage under different working conditions during the operation of large generators.

[0035] An axial voltage diagnosis and suppression method using the multi-band passive filtering loop axial voltage diagnosis and suppression device described above includes the following:

[0036] (1) Diagnosis and suppression of axial voltage generated by electrostatic effect;

[0037] 1) Diagnosis: Close the electrostatic effect discharge switch (K0), a good path is formed between the large shaft of the generator excitation end (16) and the ground, and static charges are injected into the ground through the excitation end grounding loop. Use a voltmeter (26) to measure that the amplitude of the axial voltage drops rapidly; disconnect the electrostatic effect discharge switch (K0), after the unit runs for a period of time, use a voltmeter (26) to measure that the axial voltage rises again, and it is judged that the abnormal increase in axial voltage is caused by the electrostatic effect;

[0038] 2) Suppression: Such abnormal increase in axial voltage is usually caused by poor grounding of the large shaft at the steam end of the unit, and it is treated by replacing the constant voltage spring, replacing the carbon rod or multi-point grounding at the steam end, etc.;

[0039] (2) Diagnosis and suppression of axial voltage caused by asymmetry of the generator magnetic circuit;

[0040] 1) Diagnosis: After the multiple filter frequency selection switches are turned on and off in sequence, and the band-pass filtering is performed through multiple passive band-pass filters respectively, at this time, the voltmeter (26) is used to measure the corresponding shaft voltage respectively. When the amplitude of the fundamental frequency voltage component is large and contains the 3rd harmonic and 5th harmonic components, it is judged that the abnormal increase in the shaft voltage is caused by the asymmetry of the generator magnetic circuit;

[0041] 2) Suppression: Such abnormal increase in the shaft voltage is usually caused by the factor of short circuit fault in the rotor turn. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the unit shutdown and maintenance to carry out timely treatment;

[0042] (3) Diagnosis and suppression of the shaft voltage and its hazards caused by external voltage;

[0043] 1) Diagnosis: After the multiple filter frequency selection switches are turned on and off in sequence, and the shaft voltage passes through multiple passive band-pass filters for band-pass filtering respectively, at this time, the voltmeter (26) is used to measure the corresponding shaft voltage respectively. When the amplitude of the 6th harmonic component is large and contains some fundamental frequency voltage components, it is judged that the abnormal increase in the shaft voltage is caused by external voltage;

[0044] 2) Suppression: Such abnormal increase in the shaft voltage is caused by the factor that the high-frequency voltage pulse generated during the thyristor commutation of the self-excited static excitation system is coupled to the rotor shaft. The instantaneous amplitude is relatively high, and it has a greater impact on the oil film and bearing insulation; for such defects, by keeping the corresponding filter frequency selection switch normally closed, the circuit between the generator excitation end shaft (16) and the ground is kept conducting, and the 6th harmonic component is eliminated to achieve the treatment of such abnormal shaft voltage.

[0045] The advantages of the present invention are as follows:

[0046] (1) The device of the present invention aims at the influencing factors and their respective signal amplitude characteristics of the abnormal shaft voltage caused by different working conditions. By turning on and off the filter circuits with different circuit parameters and cooperating with the current-limiting resistor (r), fuse (F), and voltmeter (26), multiple passive band-pass filters continuously adjustable between 50Hz and 300Hz are used to realize the spectrum analysis, abnormal diagnosis, and harmonic suppression of the shaft voltage of the generator excitation end shaft (16) to the ground. The circuit structure is simple and the measurement range is wide.

[0047] (2) The method of the present invention can not only realize the monitoring of the 50Hz - 300Hz components, but also further judge the possible reasons for the abnormal shaft voltage through the magnitude of the different frequency component amplitudes of the actually monitored shaft voltage. In addition, after finding out the reason for the abnormal shaft voltage, if the unit maintenance window period has not arrived, the effective treatment of the shaft voltage can also be realized by closing the selection switch of the corresponding filter frequency.

[0062] An axial voltage diagnosis and suppression method for an axial voltage diagnosis and suppression device of a multi-band passive filtering circuit using the above is specifically as follows:

[0063] 1. Diagnosis and suppression of axial voltage generated by electrostatic effect

[0064] 1) Diagnosis: Close the electrostatic effect discharge switch K0, a good path is formed between the large shaft 16 at the excitation end of the generator and the ground, and the static charge is injected into the ground through the grounding circuit at the excitation end. Use a voltmeter 26 to measure that the amplitude of the axial voltage drops rapidly; disconnect the electrostatic effect discharge switch K0, after the unit operates for a period of time, use a voltmeter 26 to measure that the axial voltage rises again, and it is judged that the abnormal increase in axial voltage is caused by the electrostatic effect.

[0065] 2) Suppression: Such abnormal increase in axial voltage is usually caused by poor grounding of the large shaft at the steam end of the unit. It is treated by replacing the constant voltage spring, replacing the carbon rod or multi-point grounding at the steam end, etc.

[0066] 2. Diagnosis and Suppression of Shaft Voltage Caused by Asymmetry of Generator Magnetic Circuit

[0067] 1) Diagnosis: Successively turn on and off the first filter frequency selection switch K1, the second filter frequency selection switch K2, the third filter frequency selection switch K3, the fourth filter frequency selection switch K4, the fifth filter frequency selection switch K5, and the sixth filter frequency selection switch K6. After the shaft voltage passes through the first RC passive band-pass filter 20, the second RC passive band-pass filter 21, the third RC passive band-pass filter 22, the fourth RC passive band-pass filter 23, the fifth RC passive band-pass filter 24, and the sixth RC passive band-pass filter 25 for band-pass filtering respectively, use the voltmeter 26 to measure the corresponding shaft voltage at this time. When the amplitude of the fundamental frequency voltage component is large and contains the third harmonic and fifth harmonic components, it is judged that the abnormal increase in shaft voltage is caused by the asymmetry of the generator magnetic circuit.

[0068] 2) Suppression: Such abnormal increase in shaft voltage is usually caused by the factor of short circuit fault in the rotor turn. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the unit shutdown for maintenance and timely treatment.

[0069] 3. Diagnosis and Suppression of Shaft Voltage and Its Harm caused by External Voltage

[0070] 1) Diagnosis: Successively turn on and off the first filter frequency selection switch K1, the second filter frequency selection switch K2, the third filter frequency selection switch K3, the fourth filter frequency selection switch K4, the fifth filter frequency selection switch K5, and the sixth filter frequency selection switch K6. After the shaft voltage passes through the first RC passive band-pass filter 20, the second RC passive band-pass filter 21, the third RC passive band-pass filter 22, the fourth RC passive band-pass filter 23, the fifth RC passive band-pass filter 24, and the sixth RC passive band-pass filter 25 for band-pass filtering respectively, use the voltmeter 26 to measure the corresponding shaft voltage at this time. When the amplitude of the sixth harmonic component is large and contains some fundamental frequency voltage components, it is judged that the abnormal increase in shaft voltage is caused by external voltage;

[0071] 2) Suppression: Such abnormal increase in shaft voltage is caused by the factor that the high-frequency voltage pulse generated during the thyristor commutation of the self-excited static excitation system is coupled to the rotor shaft. The instantaneous amplitude is relatively high, which has a greater impact on the oil film and bearing insulation. For such defects, by keeping the sixth filter frequency selection switch K6 normally closed and keeping the circuit between the generator excitation end shaft 16 and the ground conducting, the sixth harmonic component is eliminated, and the treatment of such abnormal shaft voltage is realized.
