Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of motor system fault diagnosis, and in particular relates to a secondary fault diagnosis method for a rotating rectifier of a multi-stage starter generator. Background Art
[0002] The vision of green aviation has put forward higher requirements for the development of more electric / all electric aircraft. Large capacity, high efficiency and high reliability of integrated starting / generating technology is one of the key technologies in the field of more electric / all electric aircraft. Multi-stage brushless synchronous motor has become one of the important research objects in this field due to its mature power generation technology and controllable excitation. Figure 1 As shown, the multi-stage generator is composed of coaxially mounted auxiliary exciter, exciter, rotating rectifier and main motor.
[0003] In the starting and generating stages of the multi-stage starter generator, the exciter provides DC excitation current to the main motor through the rotating rectifier. Therefore, the normal operation of the rotating rectifier is an important guarantee for the safe operation of the entire starting and generating system. However, since the rotating rectifier is located on the rotor side and operates under harsh conditions such as high-speed rotation, vibration, and high temperature for a long time, the failure rate of the rotating rectifier is much higher than that of other components. Therefore, in order to ensure the safe operation of the system, it is of great significance to perform fault diagnosis on the rotating rectifier. The rotating rectifier is a three-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit composed of 6 diodes. In practical applications, if a single diode open circuit fault occurs in the rotating rectifier when the multi-stage starter / generator is in the generating stage, the system can be derated and operated "with disease" by adjusting the excitation and other methods. However, since a single diode open circuit will cause the three bridge arms to no longer be balanced, the risk of the rotating rectifier failing again is increased. Therefore, the present invention is mainly aimed at the secondary fault diagnosis of the rotating rectifier of the multi-stage starter generator, including the distinction between open circuit and short circuit fault types and the positioning of the faulty diode under open circuit fault.
[0004] The present application is different from the prior art as follows:
[0005] Technical comparison with the public patent CN 118465529 A "A method for online diagnosis of secondary faults of rotating rectifiers of multi-stage starter generators";
[0006] Patent CN 118465529 A estimates the exciter rotor current by measuring the exciter stator voltage, current and rotor position, and then uses the estimated rotor current for fault diagnosis, while this patent directly uses the idle winding terminal voltage on the stator side of the exciter for fault diagnosis. There is an essential difference between the two in terms of technical thinking.
[0007] Patent CN 118465529 A diagnoses secondary faults of rotating rectifiers by using the average value characteristics of the estimated rotor three-phase current, while this patent diagnoses secondary faults by using the maximum value distribution characteristics of the idle winding terminal voltage on the stator side of the exciter. There is an essential difference between the two in terms of algorithm. Summary of the invention
[0008] With regard to the fault diagnosis of a rotating rectifier of a multi-stage starting generator, the present invention proposes a secondary fault diagnosis method for a rotating rectifier of a multi-stage starting generator.
