Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of circuit combustion technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus and equipment for calculating parameters of the influence of ablation steam on the combustion characteristics of switch arcs. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of technology, the power grid structure is becoming increasingly complex, with AC and DC interactions, and the grid capacity is constantly increasing. Problems such as excessive short-circuit current and the risk of large-scale power outages seriously threaten the safe and stable operation of the power system. The short-circuit current withstand capability of the existing 500kV main grid can no longer meet the needs of power grid development, and there is an urgent need to develop large-capacity, highly reliable switchgear that can be used for both old substation renovation and new construction projects.
[0003] In the entire breaking process of circuit breakers in power systems, the study of the arcing stage characteristics of circuit breakers is fundamental to the analysis of arc and airflow field characteristics, and also has a significant impact on the post-arc breaking process. The metal vapor from the circuit breaker significantly affects the physical properties of the arc plasma mixture, while the polymer vapor emitted from the ablation of polymers on the circuit breaker walls plays a role in the arc movement and morphological development. If the high-voltage circuit breaker casing is composed of polymers that easily vaporize at high temperatures, the generation of a large amount of polymer vapor will greatly increase local pressure, alter the flow field, and thus accelerate arc movement and arc demise. Stefan flow is internally generated and can occur without any external flow application. As polymer vapor continuously diffuses from the reaction surface to the surrounding gas, this diffusion leads to a net mass transfer, a convective process, which is crucial when strong evaporation occurs in a thermal environment. Therefore, the Stefan flow velocity can be used to characterize the impact of metal vapor or polymer vapor entering the circuit breaker arc plasma and its effect on changes in local spatial flow velocity.

It can calculate the impact of ablation steam on the arc-extinguishing chamber temperature and pressure distribution, as well as the arc voltage, of the switchgear based on thermodynamic parameters such as specific heat, density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity under species interference. This addresses the technical problem of the lack of existing methods for evaluating the impact on the arc combustion characteristics of circuit breakers. In this embodiment, the switchgear can be a circuit breaker or a fuse. This embodiment uses a circuit breaker as an example for illustration.
[0073] Example 1:
[0074] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the steps of the parameter calculation method for the influence of ablation steam on the combustion characteristics of a switch arc, as described in an embodiment of this application.
[0075] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides a method for calculating the parameters of the effect of ablation steam on the combustion characteristics of a switching arc, including the following steps:
[0076] S1. Obtain the arc parameter data of the switching equipment. The arc parameter data includes the diffusion coefficient of vapor, the velocity of the flow field, the equilibrium vapor pressure, the Boltzmann constant, the single-atom mass of the electrode material, the surface temperature of the electrode, and the initial total pressure, source term, and density of each species.
[0077] It should be noted that step S1 involves acquiring arc parameter data of the switching equipment (circuit breaker) to provide data for subsequent analysis of the thermodynamic parameters of the switching equipment under arc plasma conditions involving ablation vapor mixture. In this embodiment, the transport process of the species in the switching equipment is determined based on different ablation materials. The species can be copper vapor generated during the ablation of the copper electrodes of the circuit breaker during use, or it can be an insulating gas in the circuit breaker cavity, such as SF6, or other insulating gases.
[0078] S2. Based on the arc parameter data, calculate the evaporation rate and mass fraction of each species in the switching device; and based on the evaporation rate and mass fraction of all species in the switching device, calculate the Stefan flow rate of the switching device electrode and its cavity wall surface.
[0079] It should be noted that in step S2, the evaporation rate of the switch device in the vaporization process of the metal species is first calculated based on the arc parameter data of the switch device, and the mass fraction of each species in the switch device is also calculated based on the arc parameter data of the switch device. Then, based on the calculated evaporation rate, mass fraction and vapor diffusion coefficient of all species, the Stefan flow rate of the switch device electrode and its cavity wall surface is calculated.
[0080] S3. The evaporation rate and Stefan velocity are coupled through boundary conditions to construct a magnetohydrodynamic model of the switching device. The boundary conditions are: , For Stefan flow rate, Y i Let be the quality score of the i-th species of the switching device. Let be the evaporation rate of the i-th species in the switching equipment. Let be the density of the i-th species.
[0081] It should be noted that in step S3, a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model of the switchgear is constructed in ANSYS software using the magnetohydrodynamic equations (mass, momentum, and energy conservation equations) and electromagnetic field equations (Biot-Savart law), based on the switchgear's switching structure, parameters, and boundary conditions. This MHD model includes an ablation model for the Stefan velocity, which can evaluate the impact of ablation vapor on the spatiotemporal distribution of the electric arc during the arc combustion process.
[0082] S4. Update the thermodynamic parameters of the magnetohydrodynamic model based on the mass fraction of all species in the switching equipment; the thermodynamic parameters include the specific heat, density, viscosity, thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity of the switching equipment under species disturbance.
[0083] It should be noted that in step S4, the thermodynamic parameters of the magnetohydrodynamic model are updated based on the mass fraction of each species obtained in step S2. The method for calculating the parameter effects of ablation steam on the arc combustion characteristics of the switching device can analyze the influence of ablation steam on the thermodynamic parameters of the arc plasma based on thermodynamic parameters. The metal vapor brought by the ablation electrode will change the physical properties of the insulating gas during the arc combustion process. For example, when the thermal conductivity changes, the temperature distribution of the arc will change, and the temperature gradient may be larger or smaller. Changes in conductivity will directly affect the voltage distribution of the circuit breaker. Changes in specific heat may lead to higher or lower arc temperatures for the same amount of energy input. Therefore, by using the mass fraction of each arc plasma species in the switching device, the thermodynamic parameters of the arc plasma, including the Stefan velocity, are obtained from the magnetohydrodynamic model under the mixed atmosphere composition. Based on these thermodynamic parameters, the influence of ablation steam on the arc-extinguishing chamber temperature and pressure distribution, as well as the arc voltage and other arc combustion characteristics, is analyzed.
[0084] This application provides a parameter calculation method for the influence of ablation steam on the arc combustion characteristics of a switchgear. The method includes acquiring arc parameter data of the switchgear; calculating the evaporation rate and mass fraction of each species in the switchgear based on the arc parameter data; calculating the Stefan velocity of the switchgear electrodes and their cavity wall surfaces based on the evaporation rate and mass fraction of all species in the switchgear; coupling the evaporation rate and Stefan velocity through boundary conditions to construct a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model of the switchgear; and updating the thermodynamic parameters of the MHD model based on the mass fraction of all species in the switchgear. This parameter calculation method for the influence of ablation steam on the arc combustion characteristics of a switchgear uses the arc parameter data of the switchgear to calculate the evaporation rate and Stefan velocity to construct a MHD model. Then, based on the arc parameter data, it calculates the mass fraction of each species in the switchgear to update the thermodynamic parameters of the MHD model. This achieves the acquisition of thermodynamic parameters under arc plasma conditions with mixed atmosphere composition. It enables the analysis of the influence of ablation steam on the arc characteristics of the switchgear, such as the temperature and pressure distribution of the arc extinguishing chamber and the arc voltage, through thermodynamic parameters, thus solving the technical problem of the lack of existing methods for evaluating the influence of ablation steam on the arc combustion characteristics of circuit breakers.
[0085] It should be noted that the parameter calculation method for the influence of ablation steam on the combustion characteristics of the switching arc was realized by simulating the metal steam convection process through the magnetohydrodynamic model of Stefan flow velocity.
[0086] In one embodiment of this application, the method for calculating the parameters affecting the ablation steam on the combustion characteristics of the switching arc includes:
[0087] The mapping relationship of the switching equipment is obtained. Based on the Stefan flow rate, the mass fraction of each species and the mapping relationship, the arc root inclination angle and the arc center curvature radius of the switching equipment are calculated using the arc spatiotemporal distribution.
[0088] Among them, the mapping relationships include the mapping between the flow field of the switching equipment and the species mass fraction, the mapping between the flow field and the arc root radius, and the mapping between the arc length and the current;
[0089] The expression for the spatiotemporal distribution of the electric arc is:
[0090]
[0091]

[0093] It should be noted that the parameter calculation method for the influence of ablation steam on the combustion characteristics of the switch arc is to calculate the arc root inclination angle and arc center curvature radius by realizing the influence of arc spatiotemporal distribution on the arc shape and spatial distribution of the switch equipment. Through the arc root inclination angle and arc center curvature radius, the principle support for the optimization of the arc extinguishing chamber structure of the switch equipment is provided, which has important reference significance for the design optimization of the arc extinguishing chamber structure of the switch equipment.
[0094] In one embodiment of this application, calculating the evaporation rate and mass fraction of each species in the switching device based on arc parameter data includes: calculating the evaporation rate and mass fraction of each species in the switching device using the Langmuir formula and the species transport equation based on the arc parameter data; the Langmuir formula is:
[0095]
[0096]
[0097] The species transport equation is:
[0098]

Let be the density of the i-th species. Let be the velocity of the flow field in the switchgear, D be the diffusion coefficient of the steam in the switchgear, and t be time.
[0100] It should be noted that the Langmuir formula explains the ratio of cooling density caused by electrode evaporation in switching devices to cooling density caused by thermionic emission. The velocity in the flow field of a switching device refers to the velocity under the law of conservation of fluid momentum.
[0101] In one embodiment of this application, calculating the Stefan flow rate of the switch electrode and its cavity wall surface based on the evaporation rate and mass fraction of all species in the switch device includes: calculating the Stefan flow rate of the switch electrode and its cavity wall surface using a flow rate calculation formula based on the evaporation rate and mass fraction of all species in the switch device; the flow rate calculation formula is:

[0103] In the formula, For Stefan flow rate, Y i Let be the mass fraction of the i-th species in the switchgear, D be the diffusion coefficient of the vapor in the switchgear, and n be the total number of species in the switchgear.
[0104] It should be noted that the Stefan velocity refers to the evaporation velocity of metal vapor at the edge of the arc. The parameter calculation method for the influence of this ablation vapor on the combustion characteristics of the switching arc can be achieved by changing the flow field of the switching equipment through the Stefan velocity, thereby affecting the arc morphology and spatial distribution of the switching equipment.
[0105] In one embodiment of this application, updating the thermodynamic parameters of the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model based on the mass fraction of all species in the switching device includes: calculating the specific heat, density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity of the switching device under species interference using the calculation formula of the MHD model based on the mass fraction of all species in the switching device; the calculation formula of the MHD model is as follows:
