Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of traction converter technology, and more particularly to a method and device for detecting grounding faults in traction converters. Background Technology

[0002] During operation, rail transit locomotives and rolling stock are susceptible to damage to the insulation of traction system electrical components due to factors such as aging electrical cables, vibration and friction, and impacts from foreign objects. In severe cases, this can lead to direct grounding of the traction system's main circuit. Single-point grounding will cause the electrical isolation between the traction transformer's secondary main circuit and the primary circuit of the traction transformer to fail. Two-point or multiple-point grounding will generate a large short-circuit current, causing severe burn-out of the traction system's electrical components. To ensure the safe and reliable operation of the traction system, real-time diagnosis of grounding faults is essential, and timely emergency measures must be taken when grounding anomalies are detected.

[0003] In current high-speed train operations, grounding fault inspections are conducted by designing grounding circuits and collecting grounding voltage data for grounding logic diagnosis. When the grounding voltage exceeds the specified range, auxiliary shutdown, inverter shutdown, and four-quadrant shutdown are performed sequentially to determine the grounding point. This detection method cannot avoid diagnostic errors caused by virtual grounding faults. Furthermore, it can only determine the approximate range of the grounding through logic timing, and cannot pinpoint the exact location. Moreover, the execution of the logic timing requires an action delay, resulting in a relatively slow diagnostic speed. Summary of the Invention

[0107] In one specific embodiment of this invention, due to the neglect of the acquisition accuracy of the traction converter ground voltage, researchers have not clearly analyzed the actual waveform and the underlying mechanism of the ground voltage changes. With the promotion of PHM (Prognostics and Health Management) technology, high-precision data samples more intuitively reflect the ground voltage change law based on the characteristics of the converter itself. This invention provides a ground fault detection method for traction converters based on a comprehensive judgment of ground voltage and the operating timing of switching devices, such as...

[0112] Considering the dead time, record the period (T) during the nth conduction of the upper pipe of the i-th bridge arm. iu-non +T dead ~T iu-noff +T dead The grounding voltage is higher than the upper limit of the normal grounding voltage range, U. up-limit Duration ΔT iu-non Record the value C, which is higher than the grounding voltage. in =ΔT iu-non / (T iu-noff -T iu-non ); where U up-limit The intermediate voltage U can be selected according to the actual engineering application. dc 80%.

[0113] Considering the dead time, determine the nth conduction period (T) of the lower pipe of the i-th bridge arm. id-non +T dead ~T id-noff +T dead The grounding voltage is lower than the lower limit of the normal grounding voltage range, U. low-limit Duration ΔT id-non Record the value D, which is lower than the grounding voltage. in =ΔT id-non / (T id-noff -T id-non ); where U up-limit The intermediate voltage U can be selected according to the actual engineering application. dc 20%.

[0116] When there are at least two bridge arms (i, m...)A in < A And B in < B A mn < A And B mn < B D in < D D mn < D It can promptly determine if there is a grounding situation on the low-voltage side of the DC bus and issue a grounding status warning.

[0117] Figure 7 This shows the switching status and grounding voltage waveforms when the AC side of the 5th bridge arm on the inverter output side is grounded. When the AC side of the 5th bridge arm is grounded, A... 5n > A With B 5n > B The simultaneous fulfillment of these conditions proves the feasibility of this invention.
