Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of grounding grid fault detection, in particular to a method for determining grounding grid faults in a hydropower station in combination with the temporal and spatial distribution of surface potential. Background Art

[0002] The grounding grid is an important guarantee for substations to protect the safety of power systems. Its main function is to provide a channel for the fault current to disperse. The grounding performance of a grounding grid is directly related to the personal safety of the staff in the power plant and the safe operation of various electrical equipment. my country's power system mostly uses galvanized flat steel, round steel and other grounding grid conductors as grounding grid materials, but steel materials have the characteristics of low conductivity and poor corrosion resistance. In particular, conductor metals are more prone to corrosion when working in humid or saline-alkali soil for a long time. With the intensification of the corrosion of the grounding grid conductor, the grounding resistance of the grounding grid continues to increase. When lightning current or fault current enters the ground, it will cause the grounding grid conductor to break due to heat or large current electromotive force. The corrosion and fracture of the grounding grid will not only lead to poor grounding effect, poor lightning protection and electric shock protection, but also damage the power system equipment, which may cause power system failures and bring economic losses to substations and society.

[0003] The traditional method of fault diagnosis of grounding grid is to conduct large-scale spot checks on the grounding grid. Although this method is simple, it is blind, labor-intensive, and slow to troubleshoot. In order to diagnose the fault of the grounding grid without excavation, the existing methods of fault diagnosis of grounding grid mainly include on-resistance method, electrochemical detection method, magnetic induction intensity method, and surface potential method. The surface potential method is also one of the hot spots in the current research on grounding grid corrosion diagnosis. For an actual substation grounding grid, after the design and construction are completed, the topological structure diagram and spatial position of the grounding grid are already determined. When the fault current flows into the grounding grid, a unique potential distribution will be generated in the spatial field around the entire grounding grid. When the grounding grid is corroded, broken, or other faults occur, causing the field source to change, the electric field and potential distribution in its spatial domain will also change with the change of the field source. Therefore, the change in potential distribution in the spatial field around the grounding grid can reflect the corresponding change in the field source, that is, the grounding grid. This idea can be used to guide the fault identification of the grounding grid. Although existing studies have given the calculation or measurement results of the grounding grid's surface potential and magnetic induction intensity, and have also located or diagnosed grounding grid faults to a certain extent, they are mainly based on simulation calculations. The grounding grid model used is significantly different from the shape and fault characteristics of the actual grounding grid, and the accuracy of the relevant results needs to be considered. Summary of the invention

[0005] Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is that there are large differences between the shape and fault characteristics of the grounding grid model and the actual grounding grid, and the grounding grid model lacks accuracy.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] In the first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for judging a grounding grid fault in a hydropower station in combination with the spatiotemporal distribution of surface potential, comprising: obtaining on-site surface potential value data of the grounding grid of a historical target hydropower station, constructing a surface potential data set, and introducing edge data to normalize the surface potential data set; using a B-type correlation model to analyze the surface potential data set from a temporal feature perspective, and determining the proximity and similarity of the surface potential at each feature point; using a T-type correlation model to analyze the surface potential data set from a spatial feature perspective, and determining the similarity of surface potential change trends on different observation lines; and judging a grounding grid fault in a hydropower station based on the analysis results of the B-type correlation model and the T-type correlation model.

[0016] As a preferred solution of the method for judging the fault of the hydropower station grounding grid in combination with the spatiotemporal distribution of the surface potential of the present invention, the type B correlation model analyzes the change of the surface potential of each observation line over time. l The surface potential array collected is represented by X{k}, k=1,2,.., l It is converted into a two-dimensional matrix y consisting of time and measurement point m*n, which is used as the input parameter of the B-type correlation model to analyze the correlation rb of the surface potential data under different time series, which is expressed as:

When the fault current flows into the grounding grid, a unique potential distribution is generated in the spatial field around the entire grounding grid.

Based on the comparison of the results of the correlation analysis of each measurement data and the difference between each measurement and the initial measurement value, it is determined whether a fault has occurred.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all of the embodiments.

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0042] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The term "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it refer to a separate or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0043] Example 1

[0044] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, and provides a method for determining a grounding grid fault in a hydropower station in combination with the temporal and spatial distribution of the surface potential, comprising:

[0045] S1: Acquire the on-site surface potential value data of the grounding grid of the historical target hydropower station, construct a surface potential dataset, and introduce edge data to normalize the surface potential dataset.

[0046] During the operation of the hydropower station, the surface potential is measured at regular intervals to obtain long-term continuous monitoring data;

[0047] Use an AC signal generator to inject AC excitation current into the grounding grid through an accessible node, use a power frequency parameter tester and a detection coil to measure the surface potential above the grounding conductor to obtain relatively accurate data;

[0048] Along different observation lines around the grounding grid, multiple measurement points are arranged at characteristic points to obtain the surface potential values ​​at different locations, which fully reflects the potential fault conditions of the entire grounding grid;

[0049] The original data set X{0} measured in the initial construction period is represented as a two-dimensional array consisting of the surface potentials (i, j) of m measuring points on n lines, i=1,2,..,m; j=1,2,...,n. The data set of each subsequent measurement can be represented as X{k}, k=1,2,...,l-1.

[0050] The normalization process is to correct the original surface potential value U' by introducing a correction coefficient α related to the edge distance to obtain the normalized potential value U, which is expressed as:

[0051] ,

[0052] Among them, α is a value between 0 and 1, which is related to the distance d from the measuring point to the edge of the grounding grid. The closer the distance, the smaller α is. The calculation formula of α is expressed as:

[0053] ,

[0054] Among them, r 0 is the radius of the grounding grid, d is the distance from the measuring point to the edge of the grounding grid, and d 0 is the empirical discrete length;

[0055] Furthermore, the data is corrected in a local area. The entire observation area is divided into several small areas. For each measuring point in each small area, a correction coefficient is calculated as a benchmark, and each measuring point in the area is corrected slightly:

[0056] U = U * (1+Δ)

[0057] Among them, Δ is a function based on the distance between the measuring point and the center of the area. The closer the distance, the smaller Δ.

[0058] The entire observation area is divided into several small areas, and a unified benchmark correction is performed on the measuring points in each area. However, in fact, even in the same small area, the degree of influence of the edge effect will vary due to the different distances between the measuring point and the center of the area. It is necessary to further fine-tune each measuring point based on the benchmark correction.

[0059] Among them, Δ is a function of the distance d from the measuring point to the center of the area. The smaller the distance d, the smaller Δ and the smaller the correction amount. The function is expressed as:

[0060] ,

[0061] Where d is the distance from the measuring point to the center of the area, d 0 is the effective radius of the region, which can be taken as the average radial size of the region, k is a constant that controls the magnitude of Δ, and n is an exponent greater than 1 that controls the sensitivity of Δ to d.

[0062] This function ensures that when d=0, that is, the measuring point is at the center of the region, Δ=0, and no micro-correction is required. When d is close to d0, Δ approaches k. At this time, the measuring point is close to the edge of the region and the maximum micro-correction is required. The larger the value of n, the more sensitive Δ is to the change of d, which can better reflect the spatial distribution characteristics of the edge effect.

[0063] By properly selecting k and n, a reasonable Δ(d) function can be constructed to implement fine micro-correction for each measuring point:

[0064] U 修正后 = U 基准修正 * (1 + Δ),

[0065] Not only was the benchmark correction implemented for the entire area, but corresponding fine-tuning corrections were also applied to the special location of each measuring point, thereby better eliminating the influence of edge effects and obtaining more accurate surface potential distribution data.

[0066] S2: Using a B-type correlation model to analyze the surface potential data set from a time feature perspective, determine the proximity and similarity of the surface potential at each feature point.

[0067] The B-type correlation model is used to analyze the surface potential data set from the perspective of time characteristics to determine the proximity and similarity of the surface potential at each characteristic point over the years. Over time, the surface potential measured at each point in the grounding grid may change slightly.

[0068] The B-type correlation model analyzes the change of surface potential over time on each observation line. The B-type correlation model simultaneously examines the proximity and similarity between the comparison sequence and the reference sequence, comprehensively considering the overall displacement difference, the overall first-order slope difference and the overall second-order slope difference. l The surface potential array collected is represented by X{k}, k=1,2,.., l It is converted into a two-dimensional matrix y consisting of time and measurement point m*n, which is used as the input parameter of the B-type correlation model to analyze the correlation rb of the surface potential data under different time series, which is expressed as:

[0069] ,

[0070] in, , , Discrete functions and The displacement difference, first-order slope difference, and second-order slope difference;

[0071] ,

[0072] ,

[0073] ,

[0074] in, and k is an alphabetical index, k is the time index, The index of the measurement point.

[0075] When a fault current flows into the grounding grid, a unique potential distribution will be generated in the spatial field around the entire grounding grid. When the grounding grid undergoes faults such as corrosion and fracture, resulting in a change in the field source, the electric field and potential distribution within its spatial domain will also change with the change of the field source. Then, based on the comparison of the results of the correlation analysis of each measurement data, the difference between each measurement and the initial measurement value can be accurately compared to determine whether a fault has occurred.

[0076] For the grounding grid of a hydropower station, after the design and construction are completed, the topological structure diagram and spatial position of the grounding grid are already determined. When a fault current flows into this grounding grid, a unique potential distribution will be generated in the spatial field around the entire grounding grid. When the grounding grid undergoes faults such as corrosion and fracture, resulting in a change in the field source, the electric field and potential distribution within its spatial domain will also change with the change of the field source. Therefore, according to the comparison of the results of the correlation analysis of each measurement data in the present invention, the difference between each measurement and the initial measurement value can be accurately compared to determine whether a fault has occurred. And based on the data of the correlation degree rb calculated every year, the specific time and trend of the fault occurrence can be analyzed.

[0077] Set a threshold for the correlation degree rb:

[0078] If 0.9 < rb < 1, it indicates that the grounding grid is in good condition and in normal use;

[0079] If 0.7 < rb < 0.9, the grounding grid may have minor defects, and it is necessary to strengthen daily inspections to find and eliminate potential hazards in a timely manner;

[0080] If 0.4 < rb < 0.7, there are certain degrees of faults in local areas of the grounding grid, and it is necessary to immediately carry out on-site inspections to determine the location of the fault area and implement targeted repairs or local replacements for the fault area;

[0081] If 0.2 < rb < 0.4, the overall condition of the grounding grid is not good, and there are serious defects in a large area. It is necessary to复测各项电气参数,全面排查故障根源并制定应急临时维修或整体翻修计划;

[0082] If 0 < rb < 0.2, the entire grounding grid has seriously failed and cannot operate normally. It is necessary to immediately stop the operation of the equipment, formulate a grounding grid reconstruction plan, and at the same time thoroughly investigate the cause of the fault.

[0083] S3: Analyze the surface potential data set from the perspective of spatial characteristics by using the T-type correlation model to determine the similarity of the change trends of the surface potential on different observation lines.

[0084] It should be noted that there is an unclear expression "复测各项电气参数,全面排查故障根源并制定应急临时维修或整体翻修计划" in the original text. It may need to be further clarified for a more accurate translation. The above translation is based on the existing text as much as possible.The T - type correlation model analyzes the surface potential data set from the perspective of spatial characteristics to determine the similarity of the change trends of surface potentials on different observation lines. For the newly collected surface potential data X{l}, considering the data within the range [m, n], for two sequence curves, let The increments of the reference sequence and the comparison sequence are respectively:

[0085] ,

[0086] ,

[0087] ,

[0088] where represents the original data of the surface potential, represents the newly measured data of the surface potential, represents the length between two measuring points k and k - 1;

[0089] The calculation of the T - type correlation coefficient is expressed as:

[0090] ,

[0091] ,

[0092] where and are respectively the arrays of the original data and the newly measured data of the surface potential, represents the original surface potential data of the k - th measuring point and the (k - 1)-th measuring point at time t, represents the newly measured surface potential data of the k - th measuring point and the (k - 1)-th measuring point at time t, represents the difference between the data of the k - th measuring point and the (k - 1)-th measuring point.

[0093] For each potential curve, calculate the sum of the T - type correlation degrees between this curve and other curves to determine the location of the fault point. For the surface potential curves on each measurement line, if the T - type correlation degree between this curve and other curves is small, it indicates that the similarity between this curve and other curves is low and a fault may occur.

[0094] Set a threshold for the correlation degree rt:

[0095] If 0.9 < rt < 1, it indicates that there is a certain deviation between the potential curve of this line and the reference curve, but the overall deviation is not large, and there may be minor defects. It is necessary to pay close attention and check and eliminate potential hazards in a timely manner;

[0096] If 0.7 < rt < 0.9, it indicates that there is a large deviation between the potential curve of this line and the reference curve, and there is probably a certain degree of fault. It is necessary to conduct in-depth detection on this line to determine the fault location and implement targeted repairs;

[0097] If 0.5 < rt < 0.7, it indicates that there is a large deviation between the potential curve of this line and the reference curve, and there is likely a certain degree of fault. It is necessary to conduct in-depth detection on this line to determine the fault location and implement targeted repairs;

[0098] If 0.3 < rt < 0.5, it indicates that the potential curve of this line is very different from the normal state, and there are serious potential fault hazards. It is necessary to conduct a comprehensive inspection along this line and prepare to replace some grounding conductors or the entire line;

[0099] If 0 < rt < 0.3, it indicates that the observed line has completely lost its normal potential characteristics, and the grounding conductor or the line itself is basically ineffective. It is necessary to demolish and reconstruct the entire line.

[0100] S4: Judge the faults of the grounding grid of the hydropower station based on the analysis results of the B-type correlation model and the T-type correlation model.

[0101] Combining the B-type correlation model and the T-type correlation model,

[0102] If rb > 0.9 and at least more than 90% of rt > 0.9, it indicates that the overall condition of the grounding grid is good, and there are no obvious faults in most lines.

[0103] If 0.5 < rb ≤ 0.7 and 15% - 30% of rt < 0.9, it indicates that the overall grounding grid is still acceptable, but there are already some defects in some lines. It is necessary to focus on checking the lines with rt values less than 0.7 to investigate the causes of the defects;

[0104] If 0.5 < rb ≤ 0.7, but 70% of 0.7 < rt < 0.9 exists, it indicates that a certain degree of fault has occurred in the overall grounding grid, but the situation of most lines is still acceptable. It is necessary to immediately conduct an overall detection, focus on checking the abnormal lines with rt < 0.7, and implement local repairs on the severely defective lines with rt < 0.5;

[0105] If 0.4 < rb ≤ 0.7 and 30% - 50% of rt < 0.5, it indicates that there are widespread defects in the grounding grid, and a considerable part of the lines have serious faults. It is necessary to start from the severely defective lines with rt < 0.3, formulate a replacement or full-line maintenance plan, and conduct a thorough overhaul of the overall grounding grid;

[0106] If rb≤0.4, and 70% of rt<0.7, it indicates that the grounding network as a whole has experienced serious faults and most of the lines have obvious defects.

[0117] Example 3

[0118] On the basis of the previous two embodiments, this embodiment provides a method for determining a grounding grid fault in a hydropower station in combination with the temporal and spatial distribution of the surface potential. In order to verify the beneficial effects of the present invention, a scientific demonstration is carried out through simulation experiments.

[0119] A 500 kV substation grounding grid has 48 observation lines. The monitoring data of the past 10 years show that it has defects to varying degrees. The traditional method and the dual correlation model method of the present invention are used to judge the fault of the grounding grid, and the results are compared with the actual defect situation.

[0120] The test results of the present invention are:

[0121] Type B model analysis: rb = 0.63, judging as "the overall grounding grid has experienced a certain degree of fault and needs to be checked immediately"

[0122] T-type model analysis: The three lines with the lowest rt values ​​are: Line 7 (rt=0.38), Line 22 (rt=0.41), and Line 39 (rt=0.47). It is judged that "these lines have serious defects and need to be repaired as a priority". The rt of the remaining lines is generally in the range of 0.6-0.8, and the status is acceptable.

[0123] According to the diagnosis results, lines 7, 22 and 39 were tested in particular, and it was found that line 7 had 8 serious corrosions and 3 fractures, line 22 had a 5-meter continuous grounding body fracture, and line 39 had multiple joints with poor contact.

[0124] The results are shown in Table 1:

[0125] Table 1 Comparison of grounding grid fault judgment methods

[0126] Judgment method Traditional methods Double correlation model method of the present invention Overall Assessment Simply assessed as "unqualified" Type B model: rb=0.63, judged as "some overall faults exist, need to be detected" Defect Identification Failure to identify defect scope and location The T-type model indicates that the five lines with the lowest rt are the key defective lines: Line 7 (rt=0.38), Line 22 (rt=0.41), Line 39 (rt=0.47) Targeted testing Unable to conduct targeted testing Focusing on testing lines 7, 22, and 39, we found that: Line 7: 8 corrosions and 3 breaks; Line 22: 5-meter continuous breaks; Line 39: multiple poor contacts Maintenance Decision Unable to provide targeted maintenance suggestions Carry out local emergency maintenance and repair key defective lines Repair effect No way to evaluate Re-measured rb=0.78, rt is the lowest 0.71, judging "the overall situation has returned to normal, and the defective line is in good condition"

[0127] From the above table, we can see that the present invention can quickly locate the location of the serious defect area and guide the implementation of targeted local repairs. After the repair, the overall condition of the grounding grid is effectively improved. In contrast, the traditional single parameter method can only passively discover "unqualified" but cannot actively identify the defect location and take targeted measures. The diagnostic method of the present invention combines the advantages of different levels of correlation models, can comprehensively analyze the overall and local conditions of the grounding grid, escort efficient operation and maintenance, and has great practical value and application prospects.
