Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power measurement technology, specifically relating to a fiber optic current sensor harmonic superposition testing system, method, and measurement system. Background Technology

[0002] Research on power system harmonics began in the 1950s, focusing on harmonics caused by converters in high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology. In the 1970s, with the development of power electronics technology and its widespread application in industry, transportation, and households, the potential threat posed by harmonics to the safety, stability, and economic operation of power systems became increasingly serious, significantly impacting the surrounding electrical environment. Harmonic pollution is now considered a major public nuisance of power grids, attracting significant attention worldwide. Research on harmonics covers a wide range of topics, including methods for analyzing distorted waveforms, harmonic source analysis, harmonic measurement, methods for measuring various electrical quantities under harmonic conditions, power grid harmonic flow calculations, harmonic compensation and suppression, and harmonic limitation standards. Harmonic measurement is a crucial branch of harmonic research and serves as the starting point and primary basis for its analysis. Due to the nonlinearity, randomness, distribution, non-stationarity, and complexity of influencing factors, accurate measurement of harmonics is challenging.

[0003] With the increasing complexity and diversification of power electronics technology, a large number of power electronic devices with impulsive, nonlinear, and unbalanced characteristics have led to the continuous deterioration of power quality in distribution networks. Furthermore, the power quality disturbances brought about by the electrification process in the 21st century are even more intricate, with uncertain sources and interactions between the generated disturbances. These disturbances affect the probability of electromagnetic interference, causing numerous new power quality problems: such as rapid voltage changes, more frequent three-phase imbalances, a significant increase in interharmonics, low-frequency subharmonics, and ultra-high-frequency harmonics above 2kHz, and a shift of non-power frequency components towards the subsynchronous and high-frequency bands. Traditional electromagnetic instrument transformers can no longer meet the complex measurement requirements.

[0004] As a phase-modulated fiber optic current sensor, it converts changes in current into changes in the phase of light waves in the optical fiber, detecting the current passing through the sensing loop through coherent detection and digital closed-loop feedback technology. Fiber optic current sensors possess a series of advantages, including good insulation performance, small size, light weight, large measurement range, good dynamic characteristics, full digitalization, and the ability to simultaneously measure AC and DC signals. They have unique technical advantages in current measurement under complex electromagnetic environments such as ultra-high voltage DC projects, flexible DC transmission projects, next-generation smart substations, metallurgy, electrochemistry, power generation, nuclear physics, pulse power, and pipeline cathodic protection. The wideband advantage of fiber optic current sensors also provides technical support for the accurate measurement of high-order harmonics in power grids.

[0005] Existing harmonic calibration methods for fiber optic current sensors are mainly based on the measurement of single harmonics. A transconductance amplifier generates a single harmonic current of 50Hz to 1200Hz. The current conductor passes through the sensing loop and is connected to a precision shunt. The harmonic measurement equipment can simultaneously acquire the digital output of the fiber optic current sensor and the voltage across the precision shunt. After calculation, the harmonic accuracy and waveform are displayed.

[0006] With the widespread application of power electronics technology in power systems and the large-scale integration of new energy sources into the grid, the number and capacity of nonlinear loads are increasing, leading to a significant injection of harmonics into the grid. This places higher demands on the accurate measurement of harmonic currents. Currently, 40% of harmonics are generated by rectifier devices, and most harmonics are mixed in with power frequency or DC signals. The composite signals resulting from multiple power frequency, DC, and multiple harmonic superpositions cannot be simulated or tested using existing technologies, making it difficult to fully verify the harmonic measurement performance of the equipment under test.

[0064] Example 1

[0065] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a fiber optic current sensor harmonic superposition testing system, comprising: a current signal source, a data acquisition module, and a data analysis waveform display module. Wherein:

[0066] The current signal source is used to output different types of current waveforms.

[0067] The data acquisition module includes an FOCT acquisition unit, a standard, a first conversion channel, a second conversion channel, a digital signal channel, and an optical fiber coil.

[0068] The data analysis waveform display module includes an error calculation and processing module, a synchronization pulse source, and a display module.

[0069] The current signal source is sequentially connected to the standard, the first conversion channel, and the error calculation and processing module. It is used to convert the output current waveform into a digital signal through the first conversion channel after passing through the standard and then transmit it to the error calculation and processing module.

[0070] The optical signal output terminal of the optical fiber coil is connected to the FOCT acquisition unit. The optical fiber coil is used to be wound on the conductor under test and send the corresponding superimposed current optical signal or single current optical signal to the FOCT acquisition unit. The FOCT acquisition unit is connected to the error calculation and processing module through the second conversion channel or digital channel.

[0071] The error calculation and processing module is used to calculate the synchronization error based on the digital signal transmitted through the first conversion channel and the output signal of the FOCT acquisition device under the synchronization of the synchronization pulse source, and to obtain the power frequency accuracy, DC accuracy, harmonic accuracy and single component waveform, which are then displayed on the display module.

[0072] As an example, the display module can be a host computer.

[0073] Specifically, conversion channels (1, 2, 3) serve as the first conversion channel, acquiring the single-supply analog signal after passing through the standard converter, performing analog-to-digital conversion, and sending the converted digital value to the error calculation and processing module. Conversion channel 4 serves as the second conversion channel, acquiring the analog output of the FOCT acquisition unit and converting it to a digital value. The digital value channel directly acquires the digital output of the FOCT acquisition unit. Either the directly output digital value from the FOCT acquisition unit or the converted digital value can be arbitrarily selected and sent to the error calculation and processing module. In the error calculation and processing module, calculations are performed based on the acquired value output by the FOCT acquisition unit and the actual value converted by the first conversion channel to obtain the power frequency accuracy, DC accuracy, harmonic accuracy, single-component waveform, and superimposed waveform, which are then displayed on the host computer.

[0074] It should be noted that the fiber optic coils involved in this solution are all pre-wound according to the rated current requirements, forming fiber optic coils with different numbers of turns. The different number of turns of the fiber optic coils is based on the different rated currents, and the fiber optic coils are wound with different numbers of turns. Specifically, fiber optic coils N1 to N9 can be pre-made, with turns of 1, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 100, 150, and 200, respectively.

[0075] In this scheme, the optical fiber coil is configured as follows: multiple optical fiber coils are connected in series and then wound on multiple different current conductors; or a single optical fiber coil is wound on multiple current conductors at the same time; or a single optical fiber coil is wound on a single current conductor.

[0076] like Figure 3 As shown, when the fiber optic coils are arranged in a configuration where multiple fiber optic coils are connected in series and wound around multiple different current conductors, the light source inside the FOCT collector is connected to the first optical signal terminal of the series-connected fiber optic coils via polarization-maintaining fiber optic patch cords, quarter-wave plates, and single-mode fiber optic patch cords. The second optical signal terminal of the series-connected fiber optic coils is connected to a reflector. Specifically, when multiple fiber optic coils are connected in series, the first fiber optic coil is connected to the quarter-wave plate via a fiber optic patch cord flange adapter box, the last fiber optic coil is connected to the reflector via a fiber optic patch cord flange adapter box, and the middle fiber optic coils are connected in series with the first and last fiber optic coils within the fiber optic patch cord flange adapter box.

[0077] As an example of the above embodiments, in one scheme of this embodiment, three optical fiber coils are selected for testing. The optical fiber coils N1 to N3 are connected in series, and each optical fiber coil is wound on the corresponding wire. In this scheme, the superimposed current is: I1*N1+I2*N2+I3*N3, and the superimposed current optical signal is output by sampling the single power supply current in the branch circuit.

[0078] like Figure 4 As shown, when a single fiber optic coil is simultaneously wound on multiple current conductors, the light source in the FOCT collector is connected to the first optical signal end of the single fiber optic coil via a polarization-maintaining fiber jumper, a quarter-wave plate, and a single-mode fiber jumper in sequence, and the second optical signal end of the single fiber optic coil is connected to a reflector.

[0079] As an example of the above embodiments, in one scheme of this embodiment, a single optical fiber coil is selected for testing. The optical fiber coil N4 is simultaneously wound on three conductors. In this scheme, the superimposed current is determined by the maximum value of the rated output current among the single power supplies I1, I2, and I3. The superimposed current is I1*N4, I2*N4, or I3*N4, and the output superimposed current optical signal is directly acquired.

[0080] like Figure 5 As shown, when a single fiber optic coil is wound on a current conductor, the light source in the FOCT collector is connected to the first optical signal end of the single fiber optic coil in sequence through a polarization-maintaining fiber jumper, a quarter-wave plate, and a single-mode fiber jumper. The second optical signal end of the single fiber optic coil is connected to a reflector.

[0081] As an example of the above embodiments, in one scheme of this embodiment, a single optical fiber coil is selected for testing. The optical fiber coil N1 or other optical fiber coils are only wound on a single conductor. In this scheme, the single power supply current is I3*N3, and the single power supply current signal can be measured in separate circuits.

[0082] like Figure 2 As shown, the current signal source can include various types of current sources to output different types of current waveforms, such as direct current, alternating current, harmonic current, or other special current waveforms. Specifically, it outputs at least two of the following: direct current, alternating current, and harmonic current.

[0083] As a specific example, the current signal source includes current source I1, current source I2 and current source I3. Current source I1 can output DC current, current source I2 can output AC current, and current source I3 can output DC current harmonic current or other special current waveforms.

[0084] like Figure 6 As shown, the standard is connected in series between the current source and the first conversion channel to perform current conversion on the current output by the current source. When the current signal source output current is ≤120A, it is directly connected to the standard; when the current source output current is >120A, it is connected to the standard after current conversion.

[0085] As a specific example of the above embodiment, the standard is a high-precision resistor.

[0086] Example 2

[0087] Based on the same inventive concept as the above embodiments, Embodiment 2 of the present invention provides a method for testing harmonic superposition of fiber optic current sensors.

[0088] like Figure 8 As shown, a method for testing harmonic superposition using an optical fiber current sensor includes the following steps:

[0089] S1. The current signal source outputs different types of current waveforms, which are then transmitted to the first conversion channel after passing through a standard. Specifically, the current signal source outputs different types of current waveforms through various types of current sources, such as DC current, AC current, harmonic current, or other special current waveforms.

[0090] S2. The first conversion channel converts the actual value of the single-current waveform into a digital value and sends it to the error calculation and processing module. The actual value is collected here to determine the measurement performance of the fiber optic current transformer under test in subsequent calculations.

[0091] S3. The fiber optic coil sends a superimposed current optical signal or a single current optical signal to the FOCT collector. The FOCT collector transmits the digital quantity corresponding to the superimposed current optical signal or the single current optical signal to the error calculation and processing module through the second conversion channel or digital quantity channel.

[0092] S4. Under the synchronization of the synchronization pulse source, the error calculation and processing module performs synchronization error calculation based on the digital signal transmitted by the first conversion channel and the output signal of the FOCT collector, and obtains the power frequency accuracy, DC accuracy, harmonic accuracy, single component waveform, and superimposed waveform, which are then displayed on the display module.

[0093] It should be noted that in this solution, the FOCT acquisition unit can output 0-10V analog and digital signals, and the analog and digital channels can be flexibly selected for testing.

[0094] Example 3

[0095] Based on the same inventive concept as the above embodiments, Embodiment 3 of the present invention provides a harmonic current superposition measurement system, including:

[0096] The data acquisition module includes an FOCT acquisition unit, a second conversion channel, a digital channel, and an optical fiber coil;

[0097] The data analysis waveform display module includes an error calculation and processing module and a display module;

[0098] The optical signal output terminal of the fiber optic coil is connected to the FOCT acquisition unit. The fiber optic coil is used to be wound on the conductor under test and send the corresponding optical signal to the FOCT acquisition unit. The FOCT acquisition unit is connected to the error calculation and processing module through the second conversion channel or the digital signal channel. The fiber optic coil is configured in the following ways: multiple fiber optic coils are connected in series and wound on multiple different current conductors; or a single fiber optic coil is wound on multiple current conductors at the same time; or a single fiber optic coil is wound on a single current conductor.

[0099] The error calculation and processing module is used to calculate the output signal of the FOCT acquisition unit to obtain a single current waveform or a superimposed current waveform, and display it on the display module.

[0100] Existing harmonic measurement technologies can only perform single-power-source harmonic measurements. The fiber optic current sensor harmonic superposition measurement system provided by this invention can realize the superposition measurement of power frequency superimposed harmonics, DC superimposed harmonics, and multiple harmonic currents by utilizing an optical measurement system.
