Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electromagnetic transient research of transformer equipment, and in particular to an improved BCTRAN simulation structure and method for a three-phase three-column transformer taking into account core deep saturation characteristics. Background Art
[0002] The three-phase three-column transformer is one of the most important equipment in the power transmission and transformation link of the power system. Its operating status directly affects the safe and stable operation of the power system. Establishing a relatively accurate electromagnetic transient model of the three-phase three-column transformer is of great significance for analyzing the electromagnetic transient phenomena generated on the transformer and ensuring the safe operation of the power system.
[0003] The three-phase transformer models in the existing electromagnetic transient simulation software (EMTP) mainly include transformer saturation model, electromagnetic dual model, hybrid model, and BCTRAN model. The transformer saturation model requires that the number of windings is no more than three. When the number of windings is too large, numerical oscillation and other problems may occur. The electromagnetic dual model uses the electromagnetic dual principle to establish a model, which can reflect the corresponding relationship between the transformer magnetic circuit structure and the circuit elements. Each component of the model has actual physical meaning, but an accurate electromagnetic dual model requires detailed structural information inside the transformer and is complex to model. The hybrid model uses the admittance matrix to characterize the coupling relationship between windings and sets a virtual winding outside the model to connect the nonlinear excitation branch that characterizes the core topology structure. Like the electromagnetic dual model, an accurate hybrid model requires knowledge of the internal structure and size information of the transformer, which limits its application scope. The BCTRAN model uses a matrix form to characterize the coupling relationship of the leakage inductance between the windings. Although the model lacks physical meaning, the model is highly versatile and has high engineering simulation accuracy below 1kHz. It has excellent scalability for multi-winding transformers. However, the BCTRAN model is a linear model. When used for transient analysis involving core saturation, a nonlinear excitation branch can be added to the winding on the side of the transformer close to the core. The simulation error of this model is not large when the core is slightly saturated. When the transformer core enters deep saturation, the relative magnetic permeability of the core decreases, the excitation inductance value decreases sharply, the magnetic flux flowing into the air gap increases, and the saturation degree of the transformer core space shows significant differences. Studies have shown that when the core is deeply saturated, the simulation value of the excitation inrush current on the high-voltage winding side of the transformer is more accurate, while the simulation value of the excitation inrush current on the third winding side will have a large error. Therefore, in order to accurately characterize the saturation characteristics of the transformer port, it is necessary to accurately obtain the excitation characteristics of the excitation branches corresponding to each port of the transformer under the deep saturation state.
[0004] The rated operating point of power transformers is often designed near the knee point. The national standard stipulates that the no-load test should be carried out at 1.1 times the rated voltage. When the test voltage is further increased, the core gradually enters a deep saturation state, and the excitation current will increase rapidly, even equivalent to the rated current, causing the silicon steel sheet to produce a large magnetostrictive stress, causing the transformer body to vibrate and heat up seriously, and the noise increases. In addition, the test process also puts forward extremely stringent requirements on the capacity of the power supply. The research on the measurement method of the deep saturation inductance of the transformer has always been the focus and difficulty in the field of electromagnetic transient modeling. Summary of the invention

[0017] 4) Calculate the deep saturation inductance L of the transformer terminal excitation branch satk ,Right now:
[0018]
[0019] Where ω is the angular frequency.
[0020] 5) Calculate the deep saturation inductance of all ports of the transformer and obtain the complete excitation branch of the port.

[0022] The invention discloses a structure of an improved BCTRAN simulation method for a three-phase three-column transformer considering core deep saturation characteristics, comprising a BCTRAN parameter module, an excitation branch, an ideal transformer and a winding resistance.
[0023] The BCTRAN parameter module includes a BCTRAN parameter matrix that characterizes the coupling relationship between the windings of the transformer.
[0024] The excitation branch is used to characterize the difference in spatial excitation characteristics of the transformer core.
[0025] The ideal transformer is used to convert different voltage level sides of the transformer to the same voltage level.
[0026] The winding resistance is used to represent the resistance value of the transformer winding.
[0027] The BCTRAN parameter matrix includes positive-sequence short-circuit inductance, zero-sequence short-circuit inductance, and zero-sequence magnetizing inductance.
[0028] The excitation branch includes a parallel nonlinear inductor and a parallel resistor.

At the same time, the excellent scalability of the BCTRAN model is effectively utilized to make the model easily adaptable to the electromagnetic transient simulation research of a multi-winding three-phase three-column transformer.
