Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of high-voltage cable temperature field calculation, in particular to a correction method for a two-dimensional thermal model of a corrugated aluminum sheathed cable. Background Art
[0002] Corrugated aluminum sheathed cables are widely used in urban power transmission, and their safe and economical operation is of great significance to urban construction. The hottest point temperature inside the cable determines the current carrying capacity of the cable, and the rapid and accurate calculation of the hottest point temperature has become the main goal at this stage. The cable body temperature model mainly includes the one-dimensional thermal path model provided by the IEC60287 standard, the two-dimensional cross-sectional model equivalent to the average radius of the corrugated aluminum sheath, and the three-dimensional model. However, the existing one-dimensional and two-dimensional models are only applicable to straight aluminum sheathed cables. The corrugated aluminum sheathed cables are regarded as straight aluminum sheathed cables only by the average value equivalent method, which cannot guarantee the accuracy of the overall equivalent thermal resistance. In the temperature model under complex environments such as cable conduit laying and tunnel laying, it is necessary to reduce the three-dimensional cable body model to two dimensions to greatly reduce the calculation time while ensuring accuracy.
[0003] The Chinese utility model patent specification CN105928969A introduces a method for calculating the thermal resistance of the corrugated aluminum sheath of a high-voltage single-core cable. This method regards the air gap as pure heat conduction to calculate its equivalent thermal resistance. However, due to the fluid and body-penetrating properties of air, the convection heat transfer between the air and the cable wrapping tape and the corrugated aluminum sheath, as well as the radiation heat transfer between the cable wrapping tape and the corrugated aluminum sheath cannot be ignored. In order to ensure the accuracy of the temperature calculation, it is necessary to perform a three-dimensional modeling of the cable, consider the effects of various heat transfer methods, and then modify the two-dimensional cross-sectional model. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention proposes a method for correcting the two-dimensional thermal model of a corrugated aluminum sheathed cable, so as to correct the existing two-dimensional cable cross-section model which uses the average value of the corrugated aluminum sheath radius as the equivalent radius, thereby improving the accuracy of the cable temperature and current-carrying capacity calculation.

[0010] Step 5: According to the structural parameters of the equivalent two-dimensional model of the corrugated aluminum sheathed cable calculated in step 3 and the total equivalent thermal resistance R of the three-dimensional model calculated in step 4 all , calculate the air equivalent thermal conductivity λ of the two-dimensional equivalent model air1 ;
[0011] Step 6: Calculate the equivalent thermal conductivity of air in the two-dimensional equivalent model according to step 5 air1 The structural parameters of the equivalent two-dimensional model of the corrugated aluminum sheathed cable obtained in step 3 are used to establish a two-dimensional finite element model of the cable.
[0012] Furthermore, the structural parameters of the corrugated aluminum sheathed cable include the outer diameter D of each layer of insulating material. 1 ~D 8 , corrugated aluminum sheath pitch l and thickness d, the thermal physical parameters include the thermal conductivity λ of each layer of insulating medium 1 ~λ 8 .
[0013] Furthermore, the step 2 specifically includes: based on the parameters collected in step 1, using COMSOL finite element simulation software to establish a three-dimensional COMSOL finite element model of the electrical corrugated aluminum sheathed cable, wherein the boundary condition of the outer surface of the cable is set to the first type of boundary and the temperature is constant at T w ; Assume that the internal copper core conductor is the heat source, and its power is P; the boundary between the corrugated aluminum sheath and the cable wrapping tape is set to surface-to-surface radiation, and the air domain is set to be transparent; consider the convection heat transfer between the air and the wall, assume that the air flow state is laminar and compressible, and consider the air gravity.
[0014] Furthermore, the step 3 specifically includes: using the parameters collected in step 1, using the average value equivalent method to obtain the structural parameters of the equivalent two-dimensional model of the corrugated aluminum sheathed cable, that is, the two-dimensional cross-sectional equivalent diameter D 1 * ~D 8 * , where D 1 * ~D 5 * , D 8 * With D 1 ~D 5 , D 8 Equal, D 6 * , D 7 * for:

[0016] Furthermore, the step 4 specifically includes: using the three-dimensional COMSOL finite element model of the corrugated aluminum sheathed cable established in step 2 to calculate the cable core temperature T n , then the total equivalent thermal resistance R all The calculation formula is shown in formula (3):
[0017]
[0018] Furthermore, the step 5 specifically includes:
[0019] The total equivalent thermal resistance of a coaxial cylindrical structure is:
[0020]
[0021] The equivalent thermal conductivity λ of air in the two-dimensional cross-sectional model can be calculated by formula (4): air1 .
[0022] The present invention takes into account the influence of convective heat transfer in the air gap between the corrugated aluminum sheath cable wrapping tape and the metal sheath and the thermal radiation of the walls on both sides of the air gap on the equivalent thermal resistance. Based on this, the thermal conductivity of air in a two-dimensional model equivalent to the average value of the corrugated aluminum sheath is corrected, so that the cable core temperature calculated by the two-dimensional model is more accurate.
