Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of transformer performance evaluation technology, and in particular to a method and system for evaluating the anti-aging performance of the cast insulation layer of a dry-type transformer. Background Technology

[0002] Dry-type transformers are core equipment in power distribution networks. Due to their advantages such as fire and explosion protection, environmental friendliness, and lightweight design, they are used in large numbers in the power grid, and their reliable operation plays an extremely important role in the continuous and stable power supply of the grid. Dry-type transformer windings are usually cast with epoxy resin to seal the windings and strengthen insulation. However, depending on the application scenario, dry-type transformers often face harsh operating environments such as salt spray, condensation, and overload high temperatures. Under the influence of multiple factors, the epoxy resin-cast windings may become damp, leading to irreversible damage such as cracks and aging problems such as dielectric degradation, ultimately resulting in insulation failure and the end of the transformer's lifespan.

[0003] Statistics show that over 5,000 dry-type transformers are damaged by moisture each year. Furthermore, the insulation material of traditional epoxy resin cast transformers is difficult to recycle after they are scrapped. Researchers are actively developing new moisture-resistant and recyclable cast insulation materials for dry-type transformers. Currently, there is a lack of effective and accurate methods for evaluating the anti-aging performance of cast insulation layers in dry-type transformers; therefore, a method for evaluating the anti-aging performance of cast insulation layers in dry-type transformers is urgently needed.

[0040] For easier understanding, please refer to Figure 1 The present invention provides a method for evaluating the anti-aging performance of the cast insulation layer of a dry-type transformer, comprising the following steps:

[0041] S1. By sequentially injecting multiple uniformly increasing test currents into the transformer casting winding, the transformer casting winding is subjected to multiple aging cycle tests each time a test current is injected. The aging cycle test includes sequentially spraying salt spray, spraying water spray, and stopping spraying onto the transformer casting winding.

[0042] This requires simulating the actual operating environment of the transformer's cast windings. The amount of water vapor in the salt spray can be obtained based on the operating environment; the conductivity of the salt spray after condensation into liquid can be obtained based on the operating environment; the amount of water vapor in the water mist can be obtained based on the operating environment; and the conductivity of the water mist after condensation into liquid can be obtained based on the operating environment, thereby setting the operating environment.

[0043] The ambient water vapor content is determined by an external sensor, while the electrical conductivity is measured after the water vapor is condensed into a liquid state. Water vapor and its conductivity affect the insulation condition and temperature distribution of the transformer windings, thus influencing the aging of the insulation layer. These parameters are reflected in the aging test setup, which involves alternating spraying of salt spray and water mist. Determining the ambient water vapor content and conductivity is crucial to ensuring the aging test closely reflects actual operating conditions and yields more accurate results.

[0044] S2. Obtain the number of cycles in which the partial discharge signal reaches its highest amplitude during multiple aging cycle tests of the transformer cast winding, the number of partial discharge signals in each aging cycle test, the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal in each aging cycle test, the winding hot spot temperature in each aging cycle test, and the operating environment temperature in each aging cycle test.

[0045] S3.

[0046] The first preset formula is:

[0047]

[0048] In the formula, I represents the aging factor of the j-th injected test current. j This represents the j-th injected test current, where j = 1, 2, 3. This indicates the cycle number in which the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal occurred out of 50 aging cycle tests. This indicates the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal observed during 50 aging cycle tests. This indicates the number of partial discharge signals corresponding to the periodic test at which the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal occurred. This indicates the hot spot temperature of the transformer cast winding corresponding to the periodic test at which the partial discharge signal reaches its highest amplitude. The ambient temperature (T) corresponding to the periodic test at which the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal occurred. n This indicates the temperature rise limit of the thermal insulation class of the cast insulation material for the transformer cast windings. This indicates the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal observed during the first aging cycle test. This indicates the number of times partial discharge signals appeared during the first aging cycle test. This indicates the hot spot temperature of the transformer casting winding during the first aging cycle test. This indicates the ambient temperature of the transformer casting winding during the first aging cycle test. This indicates the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal observed during the 50th aging cycle test. This indicates the number of times partial discharge signals appeared during the 50th aging cycle test. This indicates the hot spot temperature of the transformer cast winding during the 50th aging cycle test. This indicates the ambient temperature of the transformer casting winding during the 50th aging cycle test. This represents the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signal observed during the i-th aging cycle test. This indicates the number of times a partial discharge signal appears during the i-th aging cycle test. This represents the hot spot temperature of the transformer casting winding during the i-th aging cycle test. This represents the ambient temperature of the transformer casting winding during the i-th aging cycle test.

[0049] S4. Calculate the anti-aging performance evaluation factor based on the aging factors corresponding to multiple uniformly increasing test currents using the second preset formula.

[0050] The second preset formula is:

[0051]

[0052] In the formula, η est This represents the anti-aging performance evaluation factor.

[0053] S5. Compare the anti-aging performance evaluation factor with the preset factor threshold, and evaluate the anti-aging performance of the transformer cast winding insulation layer based on the comparison results.

[0054] Among them, the anti-aging performance evaluation factor is compared with 1. If 0 < η est If ≤1, it indicates that the anti-aging performance of the transformer cast winding insulation layer is good; if 1 < η est This indicates that the anti-aging performance of the transformer's cast winding insulation layer is poor.

[0055] This embodiment provides a method for evaluating the anti-aging performance of the cast insulation layer of a dry-type transformer. Considering the effects of salt spray, condensation, and overload high temperature on the cast insulation layer of the dry-type transformer, multiple uniformly increasing test currents are injected into the cast winding of the transformer, and multiple aging cycle tests are conducted. The method obtains the number of cycles in which the cast winding exhibits the highest amplitude of partial discharge signals during multiple aging cycle tests, the number of partial discharge signals in each aging cycle test, the highest amplitude of the partial discharge signals in each aging cycle test, the winding hot spot temperature in each aging cycle test, and the operating ambient temperature in each aging cycle test. An anti-aging performance evaluation factor is calculated, and this factor is compared with a preset factor threshold. The anti-aging performance of the cast winding is evaluated based on the comparison results, thereby improving the accuracy of the evaluation of the anti-aging performance of the cast insulation layer of the dry-type transformer.
