Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of power systems, and relates to a flexible DC transmission line internal and external fault discrimination method based on S transform. BACKGROUND

[0002] Under the background of the country proposing to achieve the "double carbon" target construction, new energy power generation technology is developing rapidly. However, compared with traditional hydropower and thermal power, new energy such as wind energy and solar energy has the characteristics of intermittency and randomness, and the AC power grid has limited capacity for consumption. Flexible DC transmission technology is widely considered as one of the effective technical means to solve the problem of flexible consumption of large-scale renewable energy due to its strong controllability, fast power regulation speed and flexible operation mode.

[0003] After the flexible DC transmission line fault occurs, the fault current amplitude increases rapidly, which will affect the entire DC system in a very short time, so the protection is required to complete the fault discrimination within 3ms after the fault. At present, the research on the main protection of the flexible DC transmission line is mainly single-ended protection, one of which uses the transient frequency domain characteristics as the protection criterion. The basic principle is based on the high impedance characteristics of the line boundary element to high-frequency components, which causes the high-frequency components of external faults to attenuate, so most protections use the ratio of high-frequency and low-frequency energy to distinguish. However, the selection method of high and low frequency lacks theoretical basis, and cannot maximize the difference between high and low frequencies. At the same time, the protection criterion threshold value is often dependent on experience or simulation, which is difficult to adapt to the flexible changes of the flexible DC power grid structure and operation mode. In addition, the frequent reflection of near-end fault traveling waves will affect the frequency characteristics of the traveling waves, which is not conducive to the correct discrimination of line faults.
