Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of transformers, and in particular relates to a solid-liquid micro-nano magnetic flux bridge method for balancing local overheating in electrical equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Localized overheating is a difficult problem to solve in mechanical equipment, particularly in the air gaps of inductors, transformers, and other electrical equipment, especially in high-frequency transformers. This problem urgently needs to be addressed because air gap losses cause localized temperature rises, leading to overheating. Compared to other issues, temperature rise is the most serious. When the temperature of electrical equipment reaches 50°C, system performance degrades, affecting component efficiency and potentially causing damage. Solving the temperature rise problem can improve equipment efficiency by 10%–15% and simultaneously address safety hazards.
[0003] Air gaps are present in both large-scale electrical machinery and small-scale power electronic equipment, such as computers and their peripherals, office automation equipment, digital and analog communication equipment, home appliances, electromagnetic shielding, and aerospace applications. Reducing air gap losses and addressing the resulting localized overheating is a crucial issue. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to propose a solid-liquid micro-nano magnetic flux bridge method for balancing local overheating in electrical equipment, so as to solve the problem of local overheating in the air gap caused by air gap loss.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows:
[0006] A solid-liquid micro / nano magnetic flux bridge method for equalizing local overheating in electrical equipment, characterized by comprising the following steps:
[0007] (1) Nanocrystalline powder formulation
[0008] The iron-based nanocrystalline material formulation consists of Fe, Cu, Nb, Si, and B, and is formulated according to the chemical formula Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si15.5B7. The ingredients are prepared based on the calculated mass percentage of each compound.
[0009] (2) AB glue selection
[0010] Component A is acrylic-modified epoxy or epoxy resin, or contains catalysts and other additives; Component B is modified amine or other curing agent, or contains catalysts and other additives.
[0011] Component A uses one or both of the existing acrylic-modified epoxy adhesives or epoxy resin adhesives, which employ existing technologies.
[0012] Component B uses an existing modified amine curing agent, which is a current technology.
[0013] By mixing nanocrystalline powder and AB glue, the properties of both are combined. Incorporating the nanocrystalline powder into the AB glue reduces its density within the air gap, thus significantly lowering the temperature rise. This solves both the temperature rise problem of nanocrystalline powder and the issues of localized overheating, air gap loss, and mechanical vibration in the air gap of high-frequency transformers. A solid-liquid micro-nano flux bridge method for balancing localized overheating in electrical equipment reduces the temperature within the air gap of high-frequency transformers by 10℃–20℃ and decreases air gap loss by 16%–19%.
[0014] (3) Mixing once
[0015] At room temperature, the prepared nanocrystalline powder and A glue are mixed. At this time, it is not sticky. According to different needs, different proportions of nanocrystalline powder and A glue are used to obtain the performance of micro-nano magnetic flux bridge under different proportions. Mix and stir for 10 minutes until uniform.
[0016] (4) Secondary mixing
[0017] At room temperature, B-type adhesive is mixed with the solid-adhesive mixture obtained from the first mixing in a certain proportion, and the mixture is stirred for 3 minutes until uniform. The resulting micro-nano magnetic flux bridge exhibits viscous properties.
[0018] (5) Air gap filling
[0019] The air gap of the high-frequency transformer winding core was dried and cleaned. The obtained micro-nano magnetic flux bridge was then filled into the air gap of the high-frequency transformer winding core, and the filling was extended to 1 mm from the edge of the air gap, and the coating was evenly applied.
[0020] (6) Air drying and curing
[0021] After air drying and curing at room temperature for 30 minutes, it reaches 50% of its maximum strength, and after 24 hours, it reaches its maximum strength of 60 N / m. Its operating temperature range is between -60℃ and 100℃.
[0022] Preferably, the nanocrystalline powder is selected from iron-based nanocrystalline powder and acrylic-modified epoxy or epoxy resin, modified amine or other hardener, all of which contain a catalyst.
[0023] The preferred mixing temperature for steps (3) and (4) is room temperature, 25°C.
[0024] The preferred temperature for the air drying and curing step (6) is room temperature 25°C, and the preferred wind speed is 0.3m / s to 0.5m / s.
[0025] Preferably, different nanocrystalline powder volumes and AB glue ratios can be used in high-frequency transformers with different power, frequency, and air gaps.
[0026] Preferably, different ratios of A and B adhesives can achieve different degrees of adhesion and hardening, which can be used in high-frequency transformers with different air gap sizes.
[0027] Preferably, the different proportions of nanocrystalline powder volume, A-type adhesive, and B-type adhesive are optimally matched with the air gap size of different high-frequency transformers.
[0028] The nanocrystalline powder has a high magnetic permeability of 1000-30000, can withstand high temperatures up to 500℃, and has a loss as low as 30W / kg.
[0029] The Young's modulus of the mixture of AB glue and nanocrystalline powder is between 3 MPa and 4 MPa; its adhesion is between 20,000 cps and 30,000 cps.
[0030] A micro / nano flux bridge was obtained by mixing AB adhesive (a mixture of A and B adhesives) with a bonding strength of 20,000–30,000 cps and a stiffness of 60 N / m with nanocrystalline powder having a permeability of 1,000–30,000 and a loss of 100 W / kg. Using a given mixing procedure and appropriate ratios of nanocrystalline powder to AB adhesive, micro / nano flux bridges were obtained to meet different requirements. These bridges were then filled into the air gaps of high-frequency transformers to solve the problem of localized overheating in the air gaps of the winding core.
[0031] Compared with existing technologies, the solid-liquid micro-nano magnetic flux bridge method for balancing local overheating in electrical equipment described in this invention has the following advantages:
[0032] 1. This patent relates to the ability of nanocrystalline powder to be distributed in the air gap at different densities, which reduces air gap loss and solves the problem of localized temperature rise. A solid-liquid micro-nano magnetic flux bridge method for balancing localized overheating in electrical equipment can reduce the air gap temperature of high-frequency generators by 15℃~20℃.
[0033] 2. After fabricating the components according to the required adhesion, hardening degree, and reduction of magnetic leakage, fill the air gap of the high-frequency generator to reduce local overheating. After filling the gap, the temperature of the high-frequency generator air gap decreased by 15℃~20℃.
[0034] 3. After fabricating the material according to the required adhesion, hardening degree, and reduction of magnetic leakage, fill the magnetic shielding air gap in the high-frequency wireless power transmission system to reduce magnetic leakage. After filling the gap, the magnetic leakage of the magnetic shielding part in the high-frequency wireless power transmission system is reduced by 10%. -5 T Attached Figure Description
