[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power distribution of electric power systems, and in particular to an intelligent box-type transformer control system. Background Art

[0002] Smart box-type transformer is a prefabricated distribution device that integrates distribution transformers and their high and low voltage side switches as well as intelligent monitoring equipment and control systems. It has many advantages such as small footprint, easy installation, compact equipment, and high intelligence. As the terminal component of the power system, smart box-type transformer plays an important role in the transmission of electricity. As the core component of smart box-type transformer, the design and implementation of its control system is particularly important.

[0003] The existing control systems of smart box transformers are mostly based on the equipment itself, focusing more on the data collection and monitoring of the equipment, lacking automatic control of the equipment, and the actual operation process of the smart box transformer often depends on the remote equipment status operation of the power grid control personnel. At the same time, as an important link in the power production chain, the existing control ideas of smart box transformers often cannot take into account the actual operation of the power grid. There are shortcomings such as weak dynamic reactive power support capacity on the load side and prominent heavy overload problems during peak load periods. With the access of low-voltage distributed renewable energy and power electronic equipment, the traditional idea of ​​providing reactive power support and heavy overload prediction based on the power system flow calculation method faces the shortcomings of large calculation amount and low accuracy of high-dimensional nonlinear numerical solutions, which will have a significant adverse impact on the development of new energy, the improvement of power quality on the user side, and the safe and stable operation of box transformers.

[0032] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0033] It should be understood that the terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing specific example embodiments and are not intended to be limiting. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms "one", "an" and "said" as used herein may also be meant to include plural forms. The terms "include", "comprise" and "have" are inclusive and therefore specify the existence of stated features, steps, operations, elements and / or parts, but do not exclude the existence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, parts, and / or combinations thereof. The method steps, processes, and operations described herein are not interpreted as necessarily requiring them to be performed in the specific order described or illustrated, unless the execution order is clearly indicated. It should also be understood that additional or alternative steps may be used.

[0034] This embodiment provides a smart box-type transformer control system, such as Figure 1As shown. It includes a smart box transformer distribution structure, a PMU (synchronous phasor measurement unit) whose acquisition points are adapted to the smart box transformer distribution structure, a dynamic reactive power support unit, and a heavy overload control unit.

[0035] The smart box-type transformer distribution structure in this embodiment is a centralized 35kV distribution system, which consists of a 35kV bus, a 35kV main transformer, a 10kV main line, a 10kV branch line, capacitor groups 1 to 4 and reactor groups, and feeder lines 1 to 8. After being transmitted to the 35kV bus through a higher voltage level power system, the electric energy enters the centralized smart box-type transformer and is finally delivered to the user.

[0036] The synchronous phase measurement unit mainly measures the voltage, current phasor and grid frequency data at different measuring points inside the smart box transformer, and synchronously sends the real-time measurement data to the dynamic reactive support unit and the heavy overload control unit. It also receives feedback signals from the above two units for data collection.

[0037] The dynamic reactive power support unit plays a role in voltage support and power quality improvement in the intelligent box-type transformer control system. The calculation part in the dynamic reactive power support unit will generate an optimal network 1 after multi-layer unsupervised reinforcement learning training. After receiving the measurement data of the synchronous vector measurement unit, the optimal network 1 will automatically generate a dynamic reactive power optimization instruction, thereby achieving the role of voltage support by controlling the switching amount of capacitor groups 1 to 4 and reactor groups and the tap position of the main transformer and other variables.

[0038] The heavy overload control unit plays a role in power flow control in the intelligent box transformer control system to ensure the safe operation of the main transformer. The calculation part in the heavy overload control unit will generate the optimal network 2 after multi-layer unsupervised reinforcement learning training. When the optimal network 2 inputs data, it will generate the over-limit power flow value and over-limit time of the main transformer. If the over-limit power flow value and over-limit time of the power flow exceed the control range, the circuit breaker opening command will be issued to the feeder after reading the power limit sequence table, so as to control and intervene the power flow of the main transformer off-grid to ensure that the main transformer operates in a safe and stable range.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the dynamic reactive power optimization algorithm provided in this embodiment includes the following contents:

[0040] A1. Construct reactive power optimization model;

[0041] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the training set and test set with a sample ratio of 9:1 generated by Monte Carlo sampling are input into the unsupervised reinforcement learning trainer, and the number of neuron nodes in each layer of the generated neural network is determined by the training effect deviation rate as an indicator, and finally the reactive power optimization model is determined.

[0042] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the sample number of the Monte Carlo sampling algorithm adopted by the present invention is n=10000, the training accuracy (goal) is 0.001, the maximum number of verification failures (max fail) is 20 times, and the matrix of the number of neuron nodes in each layer obtained thereby is [30, 120, 70, 5].

[0043] A2. Dynamic reactive power optimization

[0044] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the operating data is input into the reactive power optimization model determined in A1 after normalization, and its input-output function is:

[0045] h(C,L,p)=ψ(i,u)

[0046] Among them, C and L are the switching values ​​of capacitor groups No. 1 to No. 4 and reactor groups respectively, p is the tap position of the main transformer, i and u are the current and voltage phasors of each collection point respectively. The reactive power optimization result is substituted into the smart box transformer distribution structure for flow calculation, and the voltage value of each node is output.

[0047] A3. Dynamic reactive power optimization command output

[0048] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the voltage value of each node is compared with the voltage reference value to determine whether it exceeds the limit. In the embodiment of the present invention, according to the power system regulations, the range of the node voltage matrix is ​​selected to be 0.97U s <U<1.0U7 s Among them, U s It is the voltage reference value corresponding to the corresponding voltage level.

[0049] If the node voltage exceeds the voltage reference value and its over-limit ratio, the reactive power optimization command will not be output. The input data will be recalculated for dynamic reactive power optimization. If the node voltage does not exceed the voltage reference value and its over-limit ratio, the reactive power optimization matrix [C, L, p] calculated in A2 will be output to the controller to control the switching amount of capacitor groups 1 to 4 and reactor groups and the tap of the main transformer.

[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, the heavy overload control algorithm provided in this embodiment includes the following contents:

[0051] B1. Constructing a heavy overload flow prediction model

[0052] Specifically, Figure 3As shown in the figure, the samples generated by Monte Carlo sampling and the historical data samples are used to form a training set and a test set with a ratio of 9:1, which are input into the unsupervised reinforcement learning trainer. The number of neuron nodes in each layer of the generated neural network is determined based on the training effect deviation rate, and the heavy overload power flow prediction model is finally determined.

[0053] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the number of samples of the Monte Carlo sampling algorithm adopted by the present invention is n=7000, the number of samples of historical trend data is n=3000, the training accuracy (goal) is 0.001, the maximum number of verification failures (maxfail) is 20 times, and the matrix of the number of neuron nodes in each layer obtained thereby is [40,130,60,4].

[0054] B2. Heavy overload logic judgment

[0055] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown in Figure 1, the operating data is normalized and input into the heavy overload power flow prediction model determined in B1, and its input-output function is:

[0056] p(η s ,t s )=ξ(i,u)

[0057] The output result is the long-term power flow prediction value η of the main transformer in the future s and prediction time t s . Set the value η s With the main transformer heavy overload capacity h s Make a comprehensive judgment, if η s >1.7h s , then proceed to the next step of over-limit time judgment. s <1.7h s , then the return command calls the running data input power flow prediction model again. In the above steps, if t s If the current exceeds the limit, the control command will be output.

[0058] B3. Execution of power flow over-limit instruction

[0059] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, after receiving the power flow over-limit control instruction, the heavy overload control unit will call the built-in power limiting priority table, and send an opening instruction to the feeder switches No. 1 to 8 according to the priority of the power limiting priority table. At the same time, if the open-loop control word of the line in the power limiting priority table is 1, a closing instruction will be sent to the switch on the opposite side.

[0060] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the power restriction sequence table is built into the control program of the host computer of the intelligent box-type transformer control system, and is updated in real time when the line is put into operation or retired, and when the user-side information changes. After the line operation mode is adjusted, the operator will also modify the open-loop control word according to the actual open-loop and closed-loop operation of the line.

[0061] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, ordinary technicians in the relevant field should understand that the specific implementation methods of the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents. Any modification or equivalent replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
