[0044] Existing electromagnetic transient simulation models often ignore the phenomenon of transformer core saturation. The modeling refers to the electromechanical transient model and can only reflect the power frequency characteristics of the transformer. Some models that have considered transformer core saturation lack relevant information on the degree of core saturation when reproducing on-site phenomena, and cannot accurately simulate the harmonic resonance phenomenon on site. The simulation results have a large error with the actual on-site situation. The resonance or harmonic phenomenon caused by transformer saturation due to various factors is relatively common in power systems, and its simulation and reproduction is also a difficulty in analyzing such accidents. Typical harmonics caused by transformer saturation often have complex harmonic components, difficult to determine the degree of saturation, and difficult simulation and reproduction.

[0045] However, the applicant has found through research that transformer core saturation also has relatively obvious characteristics, that is, core saturation usually produces periodic peak current at the neutral point of the transformer Y-connected winding. The harmonics caused by transformer core saturation can be simulated based on this characteristic.

[0046] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a transformer saturation state simulation method and device, which are used to solve the technical problem of difficulty in simulation reproduction in existing transformer saturation state simulation work.

[0047] In order to make the purpose, features, and advantages of the invention of this application more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0048] See also Figure 1The first embodiment of the present application provides a transformer saturation state simulation method, comprising:

[0049] Step 101: Acquire maximum excitation inrush current data of a target transformer.

[0050] Step 102: Calculate the saturated reactance of the target transformer based on the maximum excitation inrush current data and the saturated reactance calculation formula.

[0051] It should be noted that the transformer saturation reactance X is calculated based on the maximum excitation inrush current. air In this step, the maximum excitation inrush current I is obtained based on field measurements and operating experience. max . Calculate the saturated reactance according to the formula:

[0052]

[0053] Where U j is the system voltage rating, I max is the maximum excitation inrush current, X air is the saturated reactance.

[0054] Among them, the system voltage rating U j If the transformer is charged from the high-voltage side, the voltage is the rated value of the high-voltage side grid voltage; if the transformer is charged from the low-voltage side, the voltage is the rated value of the low-voltage side grid voltage; if both sides of the transformer are connected to the grid, the voltage is the rated value of the high-voltage side grid voltage.

[0055] Step 103: Calculate the per unit value of the bias flux of the target transformer according to the saturated reactance, in combination with the peak value of the neutral point current of the Y-connected winding of the target transformer and the inflection point voltage of the core magnetization curve of the target transformer.

[0056] More specifically, the process of step 103 specifically includes:

[0057] Based on the saturated reactance, calculate the saturated reactance per unit value corresponding to the saturated reactance;

[0058] Based on the per-unit value of saturated reactance, combined with the UI relationship curve of excitation current and the peak value of neutral point current of Y-connected winding, the per-unit voltage value corresponding to the bias magnetic flux of the target transformer is calculated;

[0059] The bias flux per unit value is determined based on the voltage per unit value.

[0060] Next, the transformer saturation degree is calculated based on the peak value of the neutral point current of the Y-connected winding of the transformer, the saturation reactance value, and the inflection point of the magnetization curve (also known as the BH curve). The simplified transformer core magnetization curve is shown as the abc line in the figure below. Since the excitation current of the transformer is very small during normal operation, usually not more than 2A, it is negligible compared to the neutral point current when the transformer is saturated. The magnetization curve can be approximately considered as follows: Figure 2 As shown by straight line bc.

[0061] When the magnetic field strength is below the rated value, the magnetic induction intensity B is linearly related to the magnetic field intensity H, as shown in the abc segment. After H continues to increase to the inflection point b, the rate at which the magnetic induction intensity B increases with H will significantly slow down, as shown in the bc segment. The magnetic field intensity H is proportional to the excitation current i, as shown in the following formula:

[0062] Hl=Ni

[0063] Where l is the length of the magnetic circuit and N is the number of turns.

[0064] For AC sinusoidal analysis, the relationship between the induced electromotive force or voltage E and the magnetic flux φ is:

[0065]

[0066] In the formula, φ m The flux amplitude, f is the grid frequency.

[0067] The relationship between magnetic flux φ and magnetic induction intensity B is:

[0068] φ=BA

[0069] Where B is the magnetic induction intensity and A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the magnetic material.

[0070] Therefore, the UI curve relationship between voltage and excitation current can correspond to the magnetization curve one by one. If both are expressed in per unit value, the curves should be consistent. The UI curve above the inflection point can be expressed as:

[0071]

[0072]

[0073]

[0074] Where U0 is the inflection point voltage, X * is the per unit value of the saturated reactance, X j is the reference reactance, U j is the system voltage rating, S j The base capacity.

[0075] Taking the measured peak value I0 of the neutral point current of the Y-connected transformer winding, the voltage per unit value U1 corresponding to the bias magnetic flux is:

[0076]

[0077] The per-unit value of the bias magnetic flux φ1 is:

[0078] φ1=U1

[0079] Step 104: according to the calculated bias flux per unit value, the flux bias parameter of the transformer excitation branch is set in the simulation model, so as to simulate the transformer saturation state of the target transformer according to the flux bias parameter.

[0080] Next, the transformer core flux bias parameters in the simulation model are set according to the converted transformer saturation degree. In this step, the flux bias parameters of the transformer excitation branch are set in the simulation model to simulate the transformer saturation state of the target transformer according to the flux bias parameters. Taking a sine wave as an example, its flux is expressed as:

[0081] φ(t)=φ1+φ m sin(ωt+θ0)

[0082] In the formula, φ m is the magnetic flux amplitude, θ0 is the initial phase angle.
