Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of power grid control and protection, and particularly to a distance protection method and device for phase - to - phase short - circuit faults of the AC collection line in an offshore wind farm. Background Art

[0002] With the large - scale development of offshore wind power, the offshore distance of wind farms is gradually increasing, and long - distance offshore wind power will become a hot spot for future development. Due to its numerous advantages, the flexible DC transmission technology has become the preferred solution for grid connection of far - sea offshore wind power and an important boost to offshore wind power development. For the AC collection line connecting a far - sea wind farm to a flexible DC system, since both sides are power electronic devices, the controlled - power source characteristics presented by the power electronic devices after a fault will greatly affect the fault characteristics of the AC collection line, seriously affecting the performance of traditional protection and endangering the safe and stable operation of the system. Therefore, it is urgent to study a new protection principle for the AC collection line in the offshore wind power grid - connected system via flexible DC to improve the protection level of the AC collection line.

[0003] In the scenario where offshore wind turbines are connected to a 220 kV offshore booster station (transformer on the wind turbine side) through a 35 kV in - field collection system, and then connected to the flexible - DC - side transformer and offshore flexible DC converter station through a 220 kV submarine cable collection line, and connected to the receiving - end power grid through a flexible DC transmission line and subsequent converters. In this scenario, human and natural activities may cause damage to the outer sheath and steel armor of the submarine cable, resulting in faults in the collection line. Due to the relatively short phase - to - phase distance of the submarine cable and the harsh fault environment of the submarine cable, phase - to - phase short - circuit faults may occur. Distance protection does not rely on communication, and improving its ability to detect and remove phase - to - phase short - circuit faults is of great significance for ensuring the normal operation of other non - fault areas of the offshore wind farm and improving the safe and stable operation ability of the offshore wind farm.

[0004] Currently, traditional distance protection can correctly reflect the impedance and distance from the short - circuit fault point to the protection installation location during a metallic phase - to - phase short - circuit fault. However, during a phase - to - phase short - circuit fault through a transition resistance, affected by the transition resistance, limited current amplitude, and phase - controlled characteristics, the measured impedance calculated by the impedance relay of traditional distance protection will have a large error compared with the actual value, resulting in the inability of traditional distance protection to operate correctly. Therefore, how to reliably detect phase - to - phase short - circuit faults in the AC collection line of an offshore wind farm has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the present application provides a distance protection method and device for phase - to - phase short - circuit faults of a collection line in an offshore wind farm.

It solves the problem that when a phase - to - phase short - circuit fault occurs through a transition resistance, due to the influence of the transition resistance, limited current amplitude, and controlled phase characteristics, the measurement impedance calculated by the impedance relay of the traditional distance protection will have a large error compared with the actual value, resulting in the inability of the traditional distance protection to operate correctly.

[0072] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0073] In this embodiment, a distance protection method for phase-to-phase short-circuit faults on the collection line of an offshore wind farm is provided. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes:

[0074] Step 101: Judge the fault type on the collection line of the offshore wind farm. If the fault type is a phase-to-phase short-circuit fault, calculate the original measured impedance and the additional impedance phase angle respectively by using the electrical quantity information measured at the protection installation location.

[0075] Step 102: Correct the original measured impedance according to the correction algorithm to obtain the corrected measured impedance.

[0076] Step 103: Judge whether the calculated value of the corrected measured impedance satisfies the protection action criterion continuously for 5 ms. If it satisfies the protection action criterion continuously for 5 ms, send a tripping signal to the circuit breaker.

[0077] The distance protection method for phase-to-phase short-circuit faults on the collection line of the offshore wind farm provided by the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the scenario of phase-to-phase short-circuit faults on the collection line of the offshore wind farm. By studying the mechanism of limited fault amplitude and controlled phase, a protection theory that is not affected by the transition resistance is constructed at the principle level, and the influence of the size of the transition resistance on the protection is tested.

[0078] As Figure 3As shown in the figure, when a fault occurs at point f on the collection line of the offshore wind farm, first determine whether the fault at point f is an interphase short-circuit fault. If it is an interphase short-circuit fault, obtain the electrical quantity information measured at the protection installation point M, and use the electrical quantity information measured at the protection installation point M to calculate the original measured impedance and the phase angle of the additional impedance respectively. Secondly, after calculating the original measured impedance and the phase angle of the additional impedance, correct the original measured impedance according to the correction algorithm to obtain the corrected measured impedance. Finally, after obtaining the corrected measured impedance, determine whether the calculated value of the corrected measured impedance satisfies the protection operation criterion continuously for 5 ms. If it satisfies the protection operation criterion continuously for 5 ms, send a trip signal to the circuit breaker.

[0079] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the fault type on the collection line of the offshore wind farm is judged. If it is an interphase short-circuit fault, the original measured impedance and the phase angle of the additional impedance are calculated respectively by using the electrical quantity information measured at the protection installation point. And after calculating the original measured impedance and the phase angle of the additional impedance, correct the original measured impedance according to the correction algorithm to obtain the corrected measured impedance. After obtaining the corrected measured impedance, determine whether the calculated value of the corrected measured impedance satisfies the protection operation criterion continuously for 5 ms. If it satisfies the protection operation criterion continuously for 5 ms, send a trip signal to the circuit breaker. This application utilizes the mechanism that the negative-sequence current on the fan side is controlled, realizes accurately obtaining the phase angle of the additional impedance by using the local current on the flexible DC side of the collection line without relying on communication, and then obtains the corrected measured impedance, excluding the influence of the transition resistance on the protection, thereby realizing the reliable detection of the interphase short-circuit fault on the collection line of the offshore wind farm.

[0080] Further, as a refinement and extension of the specific implementation manner of the above embodiment, in order to fully illustrate the specific implementation process of this embodiment, another distance protection method for the interphase short-circuit fault on the collection line of the offshore wind farm is provided, as Figure 2 shown, the method includes:

[0081] Step 201, collect and measure the voltage value and current value at the protection installation point on the flexible DC side in real time.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, first as Figure 3 shown, the measuring device located at the protection installation point M on the flexible DC side collects and measures the voltage value and current value at this point. Among them, the measuring devices are a voltage transformer and a current transformer respectively.

[0083] Step 202, determine whether it meets the protection startup criterion. If it meets the protection startup criterion, the protection starts.

[0084] Next, based on the changes in the voltage value and current value at the installation point M of the VSC-HVDC side protection, it is determined whether the protection startup criterion is met. If the protection startup criterion is met, the protection starts; if not, return to step 201.

[0085] Step 203: Determine the fault type on the offshore wind farm collection line.

[0086] Step 204: Based on the electrical quantity information, calculate the original measured impedance Z using the distance protection algorithm. BC 。

[0087] Next, when the fault point on the offshore wind farm collection line is point f, determine the fault type at point f. If the fault type is an interphase short circuit fault, such as a BC interphase short circuit fault, obtain the electrical quantity information measured at the protection installation point M, and based on the electrical quantity information, calculate the original measured impedance Z using the distance protection algorithm. BC If the fault type is not an interphase short circuit fault, return to step 201.

[0088] Step 205: According to the electrical quantity information, calculate the sound-phase current on the fan side, the fault-phase current on the fan side, the additional impedance, and the phase angle of the additional impedance in sequence.

[0089] Next, according to the electrical quantity information at the protection installation point M, first calculate the sound-phase current on the fan side. The calculation formula for the sound-phase current on the fan side is I WD-A =-I MMC-A where I MMC-A represents the sound-phase current of phase A on the VSC-HVDC side. Then, according to the fact that after a fault occurs on the fan side of the collection line, only positive-sequence current is output under the influence of the converter negative-sequence current suppression control strategy, and the output current is three-phase symmetrical, calculate the fault-phase current on the fan side. The calculation formula for the fault-phase current on the fan side is where represents the phase difference between the A and B phase currents.

[0090] Then, calculate the additional impedance. The calculation formula for the additional impedance is:

[0091]

[0092] where Z ADD represents the additional impedance, I f represents the short-circuit current of the BC phase at point f, R a represents the transition resistance, I MMC-B represents the B-phase current on the VSC-HVDC side, I MMC-C represents the C-phase current on the VSC-HVDC side, I WD-B represents the B-phase current on the fan side. The relationship between the fault currents is as Figure 7 shown.

[0093] Next, calculate the additional impedance phase angle. The calculation formula for the additional impedance phase angle is as follows:

[0094]

[0095] where represents the additional impedance phase angle.

[0096] Therefore, based on the characteristic that the negative sequence current on the fan side is suppressed, the fault point current can be obtained by using the local current on the flexible DC side, and then the additional impedance phase angle can be calculated. Without double - end communication, it solves the problem of the decline in the performance of distance protection in the scenario where both ends of the line are inverter - type power supplies, the current amplitude is limited, and the phase is controlled.

[0097] Step 206: Correct the original measured impedance according to the correction algorithm to obtain the corrected measured impedance.

[0098] Next, after obtaining the original measured impedance and the additional impedance phase angle, correct the original measured impedance according to the correction algorithm. Among them, the relationship of each impedance is as Figure 4 shown. The line impedance angle in the figure is determined by the engineering cable selection, that is is a known value, Z L represents the impedance of the collection line. Therefore, applying the sine theorem in the impedance triangle in the figure can obtain the corrected measured impedance. The expression of the corrected measured impedance is:

[0099] where

[0100] where Z′ BC represents the corrected measured impedance, |Z BC | represents the absolute value of the original measured impedance, represents the line impedance angle, represents the original measured impedance angle.

[0101] Therefore, by correcting the influence of the transition resistance on the original measured impedance, the influence of the magnitude of the transition resistance on the protection is excluded in principle.

[0102] As shown in Table 1, when the transition resistance is of different magnitudes, the protection proposed in this application can still operate correctly, while the traditional distance protection scheme cannot operate well under the influence of the transition resistance. Therefore, the protection proposed in this application has good performance in the case of phase - to - phase short - circuit faults passing through the transition resistance.

[0103] Table 1

[0104]

[0105] Step 207: Determine whether the corrected calculated value of the measured impedance satisfies the protection operation criterion for 5 consecutive milliseconds. If it satisfies the protection operation criterion for 5 consecutive milliseconds, send a tripping signal to the circuit breaker.

[0106] Finally, determine whether the corrected calculated value of the measured impedance satisfies the protection operation criterion for 5 consecutive milliseconds. Here, the protection operation criterion means whether the corrected calculated value of the measured impedance is within the operation area for 5 consecutive milliseconds. Here, the adopted operation area is the Mho circle characteristic operation area, and the expression for the action judgment basis is: 90° ≤ arg(Z′ BC ,Z′ BC -Z set ) ≤ 270°, where Z set represents the set protection value, and the protection range is set to 80% of the full line length, that is, Z set = 0.8Z L , where 0.8 is the reliability coefficient.

[0107] It should be noted that the above reliability coefficient 0.8 can be specifically adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0108] If the corrected calculated value of the measured impedance is within the operation area for 5 consecutive milliseconds, it is determined that the BC-phase short-circuit fault is an in-zone fault, and the distance protection operates, that is, send a tripping signal to the circuit breaker to cut off the fault.

[0109] If the corrected calculated value of the measured impedance is not within the operation area for 5 consecutive milliseconds, that is, arg(Z′ BC ,Z′ BC -Z set ) < 90° or arg(Z′ BC ,Z′ BC -Z set ) > 270°, it is determined that the BC-phase short-circuit fault is an out-of-zone fault, and the protection returns, that is, return to Step 201.

[0110] As Figure 5 shown, within the protection area (the full length of the test line is 10 km, and the protection range is 8 km), when a metallic phase-to-phase short-circuit fault occurs at the near end (1 km) and the far end (7 km), the fault can be identified within 30 ms, which can meet the time requirement of the protection, and when there is a fault outside the protection area, the protection does not operate reliably, which can meet the reliability requirement.

[0111] As Figure 6As shown, within the protected area (the total length of the test line is 10 km and the protection range is 8 km), when phase-to-phase short-circuit faults occur through a small transition resistance at the near end (1 km) and the far end (7 km), the protection proposed in this application can identify the faults within 30 ms. In contrast, for traditional protection under the same fault conditions, protection refusal occurred during phase-to-phase faults through a transition resistance at the far end. The proposed protection effectively improves the reliability of the distance protection for offshore wind farms and verifies the reliability of the action criterion in the technical solution.

[0112] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the measuring device located at the protection installation point M on the flexible DC side continuously collects and measures the voltage value and current value at this point, and judges whether it meets the protection criterion based on the changes in the measured voltage value and current value. If it meets the protection start criterion, the protection starts and judges the fault type. If the fault type is a phase-to-phase short-circuit fault, the electrical quantity information measured at the protection installation point M is obtained, and the original measured impedance and the phase angle of the additional impedance are calculated respectively using the electrical quantity information measured at the protection installation point M. After obtaining the original measured impedance and the phase angle of the additional impedance, the original measured impedance is corrected using the sine theorem based on the original measured impedance and the phase angle of the additional impedance to obtain the corrected measured impedance. It is judged whether the calculated value of the corrected measured impedance meets the protection action criterion. If it meets, a tripping signal is sent to the circuit breaker; if not, the protection returns. This application utilizes the mechanism that the negative sequence current on the wind turbine side is controlled, and realizes accurately obtaining the phase angle of the additional impedance using the local current on the flexible DC side of the collection line without relying on communication, and then obtaining the corrected measured impedance, eliminating the influence of the transition resistance on the protection. Thus, reliable detection of phase-to-phase short-circuit faults in the collection line of offshore wind farms is achieved. It solves the problem that when a phase-to-phase short-circuit fault occurs through a transition resistance, due to the influence of the transition resistance, the limited current amplitude, and the controlled phase characteristics, the measured impedance calculated by the impedance relay of traditional distance protection will have a large error compared with the actual value, resulting in the inability of traditional distance protection to operate correctly.
