Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electric power technology, and in particular to a device and method for monitoring transformer faults of an electric locomotive based on gas photoacoustic spectroscopy. Background Art

[0002] With the development of modern industry and the rapid growth of the national economy, the requirements for the stability and reliability of power supply are increasing day by day. However, during the long-term high-load operation of electric locomotive transformers, due to the effects of various factors such as heat, electricity, machinery and chemistry, the internal insulation components will gradually age and even produce defects, leading to partial discharge and the generation of harmful gases. These fault gases will dissolve in the transformer oil to varying degrees, and their concentration and type can reflect the possible fault types of the transformer. Therefore, the monitoring and analysis of dissolved gases in transformer oil has become an important means to judge the operating status of the transformer.

[0003] Traditional transformer fault monitoring methods mainly include offline analysis and online monitoring. Although the offline analysis method is accurate, it has the disadvantages of low efficiency, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and failure to detect hidden dangers in a timely manner. The most widely used online monitoring method is gas chromatography, which requires regular replacement of carrier gas, has a complex system and high maintenance costs, and the measurement accuracy needs to be improved.

[0004] In this context, gas photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) technology, as a new online monitoring technology for dissolved gases in transformer oil, has gradually attracted the attention of researchers due to its advantages of high measurement accuracy, short detection time, good long-term stability, no need for carrier gas, simple structure, and simultaneous online monitoring of multiple gases. Photoacoustic spectroscopy technology is based on the principle of photoacoustic effect. It detects gas concentration by measuring the sound signal generated after the gas absorbs light energy. It has significant advantages such as zero background, high sensitivity, wide detection dynamic range, and signal intensity is independent of light intensity.

[0005] For example, an existing Chinese patent with publication number CN114609046A discloses a high-precision photoacoustic spectroscopy monitoring method for gas in transformer oil, and the method includes the following specific steps: performing spectral monitoring on the gas in the transformer oil through a spectral monitoring module, obtaining gas deviation values ​​and spectral deviation values ​​of different dissolved gases in the transformer oil and sending them to a status diagnosis module; diagnosing the working status of the transformer oil using the status diagnosis module, and obtaining status diagnosis values ​​of different dissolved gases in the transformer oil by combining the gas deviation value and the spectral deviation value and sending them to a health assessment module; and the health assessment module assesses the health status of the transformer oil.

[0006] However, this design does not take into account that the background noise in the environment may interfere with the acquisition of the acoustic spectrum signal. In practical applications, the vibration environment generated by the electric locomotive during operation poses a challenge to the online monitoring of gas photoacoustic spectroscopy technology. The vibration of the electric locomotive may not only cause physical displacement or deformation of the monitoring equipment, affecting the stability and accuracy of the photoacoustic signal, but may also interfere with the analysis of the photoacoustic signal by introducing additional noise signals. This vibration interference not only increases the complexity and difficulty of the monitoring technology, but may also reduce the reliability and effectiveness of the monitoring results.

[0007] Secondly, the absorption characteristics of water vapor to light are significantly different from those of target gases (such as hydrogen, methane, acetylene, etc.) dissolved in transformer oil. In photoacoustic spectroscopy measurement, if the concentration of water vapor is high, its absorption spectrum may overlap or interfere with the absorption spectrum of the target gas, resulting in deviations in the measurement results. At the same time, water vapor may also affect the temperature and pressure distribution in the photoacoustic cell. The generation of the photoacoustic effect depends on the thermoelastic effect of gas molecules, and the presence of water vapor will change the thermophysical properties of oil and gas, thereby affecting the intensity and frequency characteristics of the photoacoustic signal. This effect is particularly significant in environments with large temperature changes, which may lead to a decrease in the stability and reliability of the monitoring system.

[0008] Therefore, how to effectively deal with the impact of tram vibration and water vapor on the fault monitoring technology of electric locomotive transformers and explore effective solutions is of great significance for improving the accuracy and stability of the monitoring system and ensuring the safe operation of electric locomotive transformers. To this end, the present invention provides an electric locomotive transformer fault monitoring device and method based on gas photoacoustic spectroscopy. Summary of the invention

[0064] Example 2

[0065] Figure 3 The present invention shows a flow chart of a method for monitoring transformer faults in electric locomotives based on gas photoacoustic spectroscopy, which includes the following steps:

[0066] S1. Install a speed sensor and a vibration sensor on the transformer itself to monitor the transformer vibration impact value during the operation of the electric locomotive; the calculation of the transformer vibration impact value includes the following steps: obtaining the average speed of the electric locomotive within a time T through the speed sensor , the collection interval is t; the vibration displacement data of the transformer surface at an interval of t within time T is obtained by the vibration sensor , based on the difference of transformer surface vibration displacement data at the current time node and the previous time node , the transformer surface vibration displacement data difference is taken for the second derivative to obtain the transformer current vibration acceleration , get the average value of transformer surface vibration acceleration within time T ; The mean value of the transformer surface vibration acceleration and the average speed of the electric locomotive The weighted summation is performed to obtain the transformer vibration impact value, and the calculation formula is: ,in, represents the average speed weight of the electric locomotive, Represents the mean weight of the transformer surface vibration acceleration.

[0067] S2. A water compensation coefficient is obtained by installing a temperature sensor and a pressure sensor on the inner wall of the photoacoustic cell; the water compensation coefficient monitoring strategy includes calculating the absolute humidity of the gas sample in the photoacoustic cell by the relative humidity of the gas sample in the photoacoustic cell, wherein the relative humidity represents the ratio of the mass of water vapor in the photoacoustic cell to the mass of water vapor in the saturated state of water vapor at the same temperature when calculating the absolute humidity, and the absolute humidity represents the total mass of water vapor in the photoacoustic cell; a relative humidity data set in the photoacoustic cell at different temperatures and a corresponding saturated water vapor pressure data set on the inner wall of the photoacoustic cell are established by experiments;

[0068] When light shines on gas molecules, if the frequency of the light matches a certain electronic energy level transition of the molecule, the molecule will absorb the energy of the photon and transition from a lower energy level (ground state) to a higher energy level (excited state). The molecule in the excited state is unstable and will seek to return to the ground state to release excess energy. In the process of non-radiative de-excitation, the excess energy of the molecule is transferred to the surrounding medium in the form of heat energy. This process causes the local temperature to rise, forming a tiny heat source. Changes in temperature will cause changes in the density of the medium, because an increase in temperature will cause the medium to expand and the density to decrease. Changes in density will cause changes in pressure. When the medium expands, the local pressure decreases; when the medium cools and contracts, the pressure recovers. This periodic pressure change forms a sound wave. Therefore, the present invention can obtain the water compensation coefficient through a pressure sensor installed on the inner wall of the photoacoustic pool;

[0069] Extract relative humidity under current temperature conditions Saturated water vapor pressure on the inner wall of the photoacoustic cell The absolute humidity water vapor pressure is calculated by multiplying the saturated water vapor pressure on the inner wall of the photoacoustic cell under the current temperature conditions and the relative humidity to a percentage. , obtain the current pressure of the inner wall of the photoacoustic cell through the pressure sensor , then the absolute humidity water vapor pressure is calculated by the ratio of the absolute humidity water vapor pressure to the difference between the current photoacoustic cell inner wall pressure and the absolute humidity water vapor pressure. Multiply to get the current absolute humidity in the photoacoustic pool , is 1 Pascal.

[0071] S3, setting a gas concentration monitoring strategy, and adjusting the gas concentration monitoring strategy parameters in real time by combining the transformer vibration impact value and the water compensation coefficient; Figure 4 The flow chart of the gas concentration monitoring strategy of this embodiment is shown;

[0072] The gas concentration monitoring strategy includes obtaining the Allan deviation of the methane acoustic signal sequence , and obtain the Allan deviation series of methane concentration, where represents the i-th methane acoustic wave signal, , traverse the Allan deviation sequence of methane concentration, calculate the absolute value of the difference between two adjacent data, and set the difference noise impact threshold Since the vibration of the electric locomotive during operation is random and unpredictable, and has a uniform power distribution at all frequencies, it can be regarded as white noise. The characteristic of white noise is that it has no specific frequency preference, and its Allan variance tends to be stable after long-term averaging. Therefore, when the absolute value of the difference between three consecutive adjacent data in the Allan deviation sequence of methane concentration is monitored to be greater than the difference noise impact threshold, the absolute value of the difference between the two adjacent data at this time is collected and included in the difference noise impact sequence, and the number of data in the difference noise impact sequence is obtained. and the number of methane acoustic signals The ratio of methane is used as the first noise influence coefficient , calculate the mean of the difference noise affected sequence The ratio of the difference noise impact threshold is used as the methane second noise impact coefficient .

[0074] The ethylene gas concentration is obtained through all the steps in S3 above. and hydrogen gas concentration ,in, represents the first noise impact coefficient of ethylene, represents the second noise impact coefficient of ethylene, Indicates the first noise influence coefficient of hydrogen, represents the second noise influence coefficient of hydrogen, represents the mean of the ethylene acoustic wave signal sequence, Represents the mean of the hydrogen acoustic wave signal sequence.

[0075] S4. Establish a transformer fault prediction model to predict the fault type of electric locomotive transformer.

[0076] The process of establishing the transformer fault prediction model includes establishing a fault gas database, which includes different methane gas concentrations, ethylene gas concentrations and hydrogen gas concentration ranges and fault types. The fault types include transformer safety, oil overheating, spark discharge in the oil and water ingress. The fault gas database also includes the ratio of each gas. The fault gas database is used as model training data, and the current concentration and ratio of each gas are used as model input to judge the transformer fault type.

[0077] The transformer fault prediction model includes a first-layer fault type judgment algorithm and a second-layer fault type judgment algorithm;

[0078] The first-layer fault type judgment algorithm judges the transformer fault type by the three-ratio method, establishes a fault type coding database, encodes the ratio of methane to ethylene as A, the ratio of methane to hydrogen as B, and the ratio of ethylene to hydrogen as C; sets the coding interval [0, ATcod1] of code A to be 0, (ATcod1, ATcod2] to be 1, (ATcod2, ATcod3] to be 2; sets the coding interval [0, BTcod1] of code B to be 0, (BTcod1, BTcod2] to be 1, (BTcod2, BTcod3] to be 2 cod3] takes the value of 2; the coding interval of code C [0, CTcod1] takes the value of 0, (CTcod1, CTcod2] takes the value of 1, (CTcod2, CTcod3] takes the value of 2; obtain the coding table of four fault types, compare the current concentration and ratio of each gas with the coding table of the four fault types, and obtain a layer of transformer fault types. For example, the current code of the gas inside the transformer is (1, 0, 0). By finding the fault type corresponding to (1, 0, 0) in the coding table of the four fault types as oil overheating, it is determined that the transformer fault type is oil overheating.

[0079] The second-layer fault type judgment algorithm is based on a random forest model, uses historical data in a historical fault gas database as training data, uses the current concentration and ratio of each gas as input data, and outputs a second-layer transformer fault type.

[0080] First, the current concentration and ratio of each gas is input into a first-layer fault type judgment algorithm, and a first-layer transformer fault type is output. Finally, the current concentration and ratio of each gas is input into a second-layer fault type judgment algorithm, and a second-layer transformer fault type is output. If the first-layer transformer fault type is the same as the second-layer transformer fault type, the fault is used as the output of the transformer fault prediction model. If the first-layer transformer fault type is different from the second-layer transformer fault type, return to S1 and calculate the fault type of the next time period T.
