Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system relay protection, and more specifically, to a method and apparatus for determining the aging degree of a relay protection device. Background Technology

[0002] Relay protection devices not only ensure the normal operation of the power system, but also provide protection for various equipment and components within the system. Failure of a relay protection device can have a significant impact on the entire power system. Therefore, ensuring the reliability of relay protection devices is a crucial aspect of guaranteeing the safe and stable operation of the power grid.

[0003] The aging failure theory of relay protection devices posits that electronic component failure typically begins with the accumulation of linear fatigue, leading to a deterioration in the device's operating condition and ultimately resulting in nonlinear accelerated damage. Failure is usually determined by severe anomalies such as device blocking, often accompanied by a sudden deterioration in internal variables (internal temperature, power supply voltage, etc.). Therefore, analyzing the aging degree of relay protection devices and promptly identifying those with abnormal aging helps to quickly eliminate protection defects, improve protection availability, and prevent the escalation of accidents caused by aging protection devices during power grid faults.

[0004] Currently, the temperature status of relay protection devices is typically monitored manually, which presents a challenge in timely detecting abnormal aging of these devices. Online monitoring of the internal temperature of relay protection devices creates conditions for online analysis of their aging levels. However, relay protection devices only transmit their internal temperature data, not the ambient temperature. Therefore, certain technical means are needed to indirectly obtain the ambient temperature to achieve online analysis of the device's aging degree. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, it is understood that terms defined in commonly used dictionaries should be understood to have a meaning consistent with the context of their relevant field, and not to be interpreted as having an idealized or overly formal meaning.

[0040] Figure 1An exemplary flowchart of a method for determining the aging degree of a relay protection device according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0042] Step S101: Obtain the temperature of several relay protection devices.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, there may be one, two, or more relay protection devices, and they may be relay protection devices of the same cabinet. The temperature of each relay protection device is the online temperature obtained by the acquisition device.

[0044] Step S102: Based on the temperatures of several relay protection devices and the pre-established mapping relationship between ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device, several ambient temperatures are obtained.

[0045] In this embodiment of the invention, the mapping relationship between ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device is generally linear, and can be specifically obtained by fitting historical data. Since each relay protection device temperature has a corresponding mapping relationship with the ambient temperature, several ambient temperatures corresponding to the temperatures of several relay protection devices can be obtained based on the temperatures of several relay protection devices.

[0046] Furthermore, the mapping relationship between ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device is established in advance using the following method:

[0047] By fitting the ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device at each historical sampling time, the following formula is obtained:

[0048] T dk =Δ k +b k T e ;

[0049] Among them, T dk Let T be the temperature of the k-th relay protection device, k = 1, ..., M, where M is a positive integer. e For ambient temperature, Δ k b is the first parameter k This is the second parameter.

[0050] In this embodiment of the invention, the first parameter Δ k The second parameter b k All of these are related to the performance of the relay protection device itself; different relay protection devices have different Δ values. k b k .

[0051] Furthermore, Δ k b kThe following formulas are used to obtain the results:

[0052] Δ k =T' dk -b k T' e ;

[0053]

[0054] Where L represents the number of historical samples, and T dk(i) T e(i) Let T' be the i-th sampled value of the temperature of the k-th relay protection device and the i-th sampled value of the ambient temperature, respectively. dk T' is the average value of the historical sampling temperature of the k-th relay protection device over L times. e This represents the average ambient temperature from L historical samplings.

[0055] In this embodiment of the invention, for the k-th relay protection device, based on the ambient temperature T at the i-th historical sampling time... e(i) Temperature T of relay protection device dk(i) , get T dk(i) =Δ k +b k T e(i) By fitting data from L historical sampling times, the ambient temperature T can be obtained. e Temperature T of the kth relay protection device dk Mapping relationship T dk =Δ k +b k T e .

[0056] The above embodiments, by fitting historical data of ambient temperature with the temperature of each relay protection device, obtain the mapping relationship between ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device. This solves the problem that the current online device temperature does not have a corresponding online ambient temperature, which makes it impossible to achieve real-time assessment of the aging status of relay protection devices. It can achieve accurate assessment of the aging degree of relay protection devices.

[0057] Step S103: Calculate the average value of several ambient temperatures to obtain the average ambient temperature.

[0058] Further, step S103 includes:

[0059] The average ambient temperature μ is calculated using the following formula:

[0060]

[0061] Among them, T ek Let R be the k-th ambient temperature, k = 1, ..., M, where M is a positive integer.k Let V be the variance of the temperature measurement noise of the k-th relay protection device.

[0062] In this embodiment of the invention, T ek It can be made by T ek =(T dk -Δ k ) / b k Calculations show that T dk The temperature of the kth relay protection device.

[0063] Furthermore, after calculating the average of several ambient temperatures and obtaining the average ambient temperature, the process also includes:

[0064] Determine whether each ambient temperature is within the normal range;

[0065] If so, the average ambient temperature will be used as the final average ambient temperature.

[0066] Otherwise, after removing ambient temperatures that are outside the normal range, the average ambient temperature is recalculated, and it is continued to determine whether each ambient temperature is within the normal range.

[0067] Repeat this process until each ambient temperature is within the normal range.

[0068] Furthermore, determine whether each ambient temperature is within the normal range, including:

[0069] Determine whether each ambient temperature is within μ±1.96σ. k Within the range;

[0070] in, R k Let V be the variance of the temperature measurement noise of the k-th relay protection device.

[0071] In this embodiment of the invention, elements not in [μ-1.96σ] are removed. k μ+1.96σ k After determining the ambient temperature within the range of [μ-1.96σ], the average ambient temperature μ is recalculated, and it is further determined whether each ambient temperature falls within [μ-1.96σ]. k μ+1.96σ k Repeat this process within the range of [μ-1.96σ] until each ambient temperature is within [μ-1.96σ]. k μ+1.96σ k End within the specified range.

[0072] The above embodiments, by eliminating ambient temperatures outside the normal range, avoid the problem of inaccurate ambient temperatures inferred due to the aging of individual relay protection devices, thus ensuring the accuracy and reliability of relay protection device aging assessment.

[0073] Step S104: Based on the average ambient temperature, calibrate the temperature of several relay protection devices to obtain the nominal device temperature of several relay protection devices.

[0074] Further, step S104 includes:

[0075] The nominal device temperature f of the relay protection device is calculated using the following formula. k :

[0076] f k =T dk -b k T e -Δ k ;

[0077] Among them, T dk Let T be the temperature of the k-th relay protection device, k = 1, ..., M, where M is a positive integer. e Δ represents the average ambient temperature. k b is the first parameter k This is the second parameter.

[0078] In this embodiment of the invention, T e The average ambient temperature can be obtained by weighted averaging of each ambient temperature, or by using the following formula.

[0079] T e =μ;

[0080]

[0081] Among them, T ek Let R be the k-th ambient temperature, k = 1, ..., M, where M is a positive integer. k Let V be the variance of the temperature measurement noise of the k-th relay protection device.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present invention, T e It can be the average value of all ambient temperatures within the normal range after removing ambient temperatures that are outside the normal range.

[0083] The above embodiments calibrate the temperature of the relay protection device to obtain a nominal device temperature f that removes the influence of ambient temperature, device structure, and installation conditions, and can be used to uniformly evaluate the status of the relay protection device. k .

[0084] Step S105: Determine whether the absolute value of the nominal device temperature of each relay protection device is within the normal range.

[0085] Further, step S105 includes:

[0086] Determine whether the absolute value of the nominal device temperature of each relay protection device is within the range of 0-5℃.

[0087] Step S106: Based on the judgment results, determine whether each relay protection device has aging abnormalities.

[0088] In this embodiment of the invention, if the absolute value of the nominal device temperature of the relay protection device is within the normal range, preferably 0-5℃, it indicates that the relay protection device has not experienced aging abnormalities; otherwise, it indicates that the relay protection device has experienced aging abnormalities.

[0089] In the above embodiments, the ambient temperature is obtained by using the temperature of the relay protection device and a pre-established mapping relationship between the ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device. Based on the obtained ambient temperature, the temperature of each relay protection device is calibrated to obtain the nominal device temperature used to determine the degree of aging abnormality of each relay protection device. This solves the problem of difficulty in detecting aging abnormalities of relay protection devices. It enables online assessment of the aging degree of relay protection devices based solely on the temperature of the relay protection devices, and realizes the monitoring and early detection of the aging degree of relay protection devices.

[0090] It is important to understand that the aging of relay protection devices follows a pattern of slow, gradual accumulation over a long period, followed by rapid aging and failure. Only by monitoring the aging process online can potential aging problems be detected in a timely manner. However, it is difficult to collect ambient temperature information synchronously with device temperature information, which restricts the realization of real-time assessment of the aging degree of relay protection devices. To address this, this invention fully utilizes the correlation between relay protection device temperature and ambient temperature, proposing a method to indirectly reflect changes in ambient temperature by using the temperatures of other relay protection devices within the same cabinet. Considering that the possibility of multiple relay protection devices aging simultaneously is extremely low, when a relay protection device ages abnormally, its temperature increases relative to other relay protection devices compared to historical data. By monitoring this increase, abnormal aging signs can be detected in a timely manner, enabling monitoring and early detection of the aging degree of relay protection devices.

[0091] Example 1

[0092] Two sets of relay protection devices (labeled PM5001A, PM5001B, PM5002A, and PM5002B, with k values ​​of 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively) are arranged nearby at each of the #1M and #2M sections of a 500kV intelligent substation. The online temperature of the relay protection devices is read, and the aging degree is assessed according to the steps of this embodiment of the invention.

[0093] (1) Using least squares estimation, the mapping relationship between the temperature of the four relay protection devices and the ambient temperature was fitted. The results are as follows:

[0094] T d1=Δ1+b1T e =13.042℃+T e

[0095] T d2 =Δ2+b2T e =26.561℃+T e

[0096] T d3 =Δ3+b3T e =11.149℃+T e

[0097] T d4 =Δ4+b4T e =24.542℃+T e

[0098] (2) Determine the ambient temperature. Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the temperature variation curves of four relay protection devices and the ambient temperature according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, taking 00:00 on July 9th as an example, the ambient temperature is deduced by reading the temperature of the relay protection devices. The ambient temperature T is then calculated by deducing the temperature from the temperatures of the four relay protection devices. ek The temperatures (k=1,…,4) are 26.458℃, 26.359℃, 26.451℃, and 26.338℃, respectively. The variances of the temperature measurement noise of the four relay protection devices are 0.3. 2 0.1 2 0.3 2 0.1 2 .application The calculated value is μ = 26.359℃. After verification, the T value of the four relay protection devices is... ek All within μ±1.96σ k Within the range, the ambient temperature T at 0:00 e The temperature was 26.359℃. Ambient temperatures at other times were obtained using the same method.

(See diagram for reference.) Figure 3 As shown, press f k =T dk -b k T e -Δ k The temperature of the device is calibrated to obtain the nominal device temperature f. k .

Figure 3As shown, the nominal device temperature of the four relay protection devices is within ±5℃, so the four protection devices have not shown any signs of aging.

[0101] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a device for determining the aging degree of a relay protection device according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0102] like Figure 4 As shown, the device includes:

[0105] The ambient temperature calculation unit 402 is used to obtain several ambient temperatures based on the temperatures of several relay protection devices and the pre-established mapping relationship between ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device.

[0106] In this embodiment of the invention, the mapping relationship between ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device is generally linear, and can be specifically obtained by fitting historical data. Since each relay protection device temperature has a corresponding mapping relationship with the ambient temperature, several ambient temperatures corresponding to the temperatures of several relay protection devices can be obtained based on the temperatures of several relay protection devices.

[0107] Furthermore, the mapping relationship between ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device is established in advance using the following method:

[0108] By fitting the ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device at each historical sampling time, the following formula is obtained:

[0114]

[0115] Where L represents the number of historical samples, and T dk(i) T e(i) Let T' be the i-th sampled value of the temperature of the k-th relay protection device and the i-th sampled value of the ambient temperature, respectively. dk T' is the average value of the historical sampling temperature of the k-th relay protection device over L times. e This represents the average ambient temperature from L historical samplings.

[0124] Furthermore, the device also includes:

[0125] The outlier removal unit is used to calculate the average value of several ambient temperatures. After obtaining the average ambient temperature, it determines whether each ambient temperature is within the normal range.

[0126] If so, the average ambient temperature will be used as the final average ambient temperature.

[0127] Otherwise, after removing ambient temperatures that are outside the normal range, the average ambient temperature is recalculated, and it is continued to determine whether each ambient temperature is within the normal range.

[0128] Repeat this process until each ambient temperature is within the normal range.

[0129] Furthermore, determine whether each ambient temperature is within the normal range, including:

[0136] The nominal device temperature f of the relay protection device is calculated using the following formula. k :

[0137] f k =T dk -b k T e -Δ k ;

[0138] Among them, T dk Let T be the temperature of the k-th relay protection device, k = 1, ..., M, where M is a positive integer. e Δ represents the average ambient temperature. k b is the first parameter k This is the second parameter.

[0139] In this embodiment of the invention, T e The average ambient temperature can be obtained by weighted averaging of each ambient temperature, or by using the following formula.

[0140] T e =μ;

[0141]

[0142] Among them, T ek Let R be the k-th ambient temperature, k = 1, ..., M, where M is a positive integer. k Let V be the variance of the temperature measurement noise of the k-th relay protection device.

[0143] In some embodiments of the present invention, T e It can be the average value of all ambient temperatures within the normal range after removing ambient temperatures that are outside the normal range.

[0144] The above embodiments calibrate the temperature of the relay protection device to obtain a nominal device temperature f that removes the influence of ambient temperature, device structure, and installation conditions, and can be used to uniformly evaluate the status of the relay protection device. k .

[0145] The judgment unit 405 is used to determine whether the absolute value of the nominal device temperature of each relay protection device is within the normal range.

[0146] Furthermore, the judgment unit 405 is also used for:

[0147] Determine whether the absolute value of the nominal device temperature of each relay protection device is within the range of 0-5℃.

[0148] The aging degree determination unit 406 is used to determine whether each relay protection device has aging abnormalities based on the judgment result.

[0149] In this embodiment of the invention, if the absolute value of the nominal device temperature of the relay protection device is within the normal range, preferably 0-5℃, it indicates that the relay protection device has not experienced aging abnormalities; otherwise, it indicates that the relay protection device has experienced aging abnormalities.

[0150] In the above embodiments, the ambient temperature is obtained by using the temperature of the relay protection device and a pre-established mapping relationship between the ambient temperature and the temperature of each relay protection device. Based on the obtained ambient temperature, the temperature of each relay protection device is calibrated to obtain the nominal device temperature used to determine the degree of aging abnormality of each relay protection device. This solves the problem of difficulty in detecting aging abnormalities of relay protection devices. It enables online assessment of the aging degree of relay protection devices based solely on the temperature of the relay protection devices, and realizes the monitoring and early detection of the aging degree of relay protection devices.

[0151] It is important to understand that the aging of relay protection devices follows a pattern of slow, gradual accumulation over a long period, followed by rapid aging and failure. Only by monitoring the aging process online can potential aging problems be detected in a timely manner. However, it is difficult to collect ambient temperature information synchronously with device temperature information, which restricts the realization of real-time assessment of the aging degree of relay protection devices. To address this, this invention fully utilizes the correlation between relay protection device temperature and ambient temperature, proposing a method to indirectly reflect changes in ambient temperature by using the temperatures of other relay protection devices within the same cabinet. Considering that the possibility of multiple relay protection devices aging simultaneously is extremely low, when a relay protection device ages abnormally, its temperature increases relative to other relay protection devices compared to historical data. By monitoring this increase, abnormal aging signs can be detected in a timely manner, enabling monitoring and early detection of the aging degree of relay protection devices.

[0158] T d4 =Δ4+b4T e =24.542℃+T e
