Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system relay protection technology, and more specifically, to a DC line protection method and system based on the similarity of current traveling wave time-frequency matrix. Background Technology

[0002] Direct current (DC) transmission boasts advantages such as flexible control, low harmonic content, high transmission power, and the ability to transmit over long distances, making it a crucial method for achieving large-scale renewable energy grid integration, asynchronous grid interconnection, and isolated power supply. However, DC transmission lines operate in harsh environments and are prone to faults. When a line fault occurs, each converter station feeds short-circuit current to the fault point. This fault current rises rapidly and has a large amplitude, severely jeopardizing the DC system. Therefore, reliable, fast, and sensitive line protection is of paramount importance for the safe and stable operation of the DC transmission network.

[0003] Existing main protection methods for DC transmission lines mainly fall into two categories. One category is based on the boundary elements of the DC line, relying on the blocking effect of DC inductors on high-frequency components or the low resistance of DC filters at resonant frequencies. Since flexible DC transmission systems typically do not require DC filters, protection methods based on the boundary effects of DC filters are only applicable to traditional HVDC transmission systems. Furthermore, protection methods based on the boundary effects of DC inductors are only applicable to DC grids where DC inductors are installed at both ends of the line, and cannot be applied to DC grids where DC inductors are installed at the converter station outlet. The other category of protection methods is not based on the boundary elements of the DC line. This type of protection method has a wider range of engineering applications, but existing protection methods not based on DC line boundary elements suffer from problems such as not being able to protect the entire line length, being unsuitable for various line lengths, having long operating times, and being susceptible to transition resistance and noise.

However, the invention may be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. These embodiments are provided to fully and completely disclose the invention and to fully convey its scope to those skilled in the art. The terminology used in the exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawings is not intended to limit the invention. In the drawings, the same units / elements are referred to by the same reference numerals.

[0069] Unless otherwise stated, the terms used herein (including technical terms) have their common meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art.

[0115] To verify the method of this invention, a system was built on PSCAD / EMTDC as follows: Figure 3 The model shown is a detailed representation of a ±500kV flexible DC power grid. The solid squares at both ends of the line represent protection devices R. ij With DC circuit breakers, each converter station outlet is equipped with a DC inductor L. i The DC line adopts an overhead line frequency-dependent distributed parameter model.
