Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power equipment detection, and in particular to an ultra-high frequency partial discharge detection system and a detection method carried by an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background Art

[0002] During long-term operation, substation equipment is susceptible to various influences and is prone to insulation degradation, resulting in partial discharge inside the equipment. This partial discharge will generate electromagnetic waves up to several GHz. When partial discharge occurs inside the equipment, the relevant information of partial discharge of the equipment can be obtained by detecting the UHF signal, so as to achieve the purpose of rapid diagnosis of equipment defects.

[0003] The UHF method is an important detection technology for abnormal discharge diagnosis of substation equipment. It is mainly used in partial discharge detection of equipment such as main transformers, GIS and high-voltage switchgear. At present, when conducting UHF detection, people need to carry instruments to detect high-voltage equipment in the station. Since the staff stand on the ground during the detection process, the UHF signal attenuation is large and there are blind spots in the detection, which often makes it difficult to find defects. Secondly, the voltage of substation equipment is high, and there are great personal safety hazards when the staff carry the equipment close. In ultra-high and ultra-high voltage substations, there are cases where drones are used to carry UHF detection systems. However, conventional drone detection needs to meet the carrying requirements of UHF detection systems, and its drones are large in size. Since conventional substation equipment is closely arranged and the safety distance is limited, large drones are difficult to adapt to the complex substation environment during detection. Moreover, since partial discharge inside the equipment will generate electromagnetic waves, conventional drone detection will be interfered by electromagnetic waves during communication. It can be seen that the existing drone detection system has the problems of low adaptability to complex environments and easy interference of electromagnetic waves in communication.

[0045] The UHF partial discharge detection system based on a drone of the present invention realizes the detection of partial discharge at the fault point by carrying a partial discharge detection unit 1 on the drone, thereby discovering insulation defects of high-voltage equipment, and is easy to operate and highly safe; through the cooperation of the partial discharge detection unit 1 and the handheld signal receiving and analysis terminal 3 unit, the fault point can be displayed in the image, the detection accuracy is high and the display is more intuitive, thereby facilitating subsequent fault processing.

[0046] The drone flies in a safe area within the station and stays at key parts of the electrical equipment in the substation. Once partial discharge occurs on the surface of the electrical equipment, the UHF detection device installed at the bottom of the drone receives the UHF partial discharge high-frequency signal. The partial discharge detection unit 1 processes the partial discharge signal and transmits the data to the data analysis terminal via wireless transmission. The data analysis terminal counts and records various partial discharge signal types, discharge amplitudes, discharge times, fault severity and other partial discharge indicator parameters.

[0047] The UAV is equipped with a UHF sensor that couples UHF pulse signals, the frequency of which can be as high as several GHz. The detection frequency range is 300MHz-2000MHz, with high sensitivity and certain directionality, and the positioning effect is more obvious. The schematic diagram is as follows Figure 7 As shown, the UHF antenna 11 couples the electromagnetic wave signal radiated outward by local discharge from the fault point, and the channel conditioning module 12 filters, amplifies, and detects the high-frequency signal. The conditioned analog signal is converted into a digital signal by the signal acquisition, processing, and transmission module. The digital signal is wirelessly transmitted by the communication unit, and the handheld terminal receives the UHF wireless signal and the wireless image signal of the camera module.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, the partial discharge detection unit 1 includes a UHF antenna 11, a channel conditioning module 12, a high-speed data acquisition unit 13 and a processing and analysis unit 14;

[0049] The UHF antenna 11 is used to couple the electromagnetic wave signal radiated outward due to local discharge at the fault point of the electrical equipment. The channel conditioning module 12 is used to filter and amplify the electromagnetic wave signal. The high-speed data acquisition module is used to perform analog-to-digital conversion on the amplified data. The processing and analysis module is used to analyze and process the digital signal and transmit the analyzed signal to the drone carrying unit 2.

[0051] Specifically, the high-pass filter frequency band is 300 MHz, and the low-pass filter frequency band is 2000 MHz. Figure 4 As shown: the high-pass filter includes capacitors C1, C2, C3 and inductors L3, L4; the capacitors C1, C2, C3 are connected in series to the signal input end in sequence; one end of the inductor L3 is located between the capacitors C1 and C2, and the other end is connected to the negative input end of the high-pass filter; one end of the inductor L4 is located between the capacitors C2 and C3, and the other end is connected to the negative input end of the high-pass filter;

[0052] One end of the resistor R1 is connected to the output end of the high-pass filter, and the other end is connected to the input end of the low-pass filter.

[0053] The low-pass filter includes capacitors C4, C5, C6 and inductors L1 and L2. Inductors L1 and L2 are connected in series at the input end of the low-pass filter. One end of capacitor C4 is located between resistor R1 and inductor L1, and the other end is connected to the negative input end of the band-pass filter; one end of capacitor C5 is located between inductor L1 and inductor L2, and the other end is connected to the negative input end of the band-pass filter; one end of capacitor C6 is connected to the other end of inductor L2, and one end is connected to the negative input end of the band-pass filter.

[0054] like Figure 5 As shown, resistors R2 to R15 and relays JD1 to JD4 together form an adjustable resistance attenuation network, with optional attenuation of 20dB, 40dB, 60dB, 80dB, and 100dB. The control relay selects the attenuator combination mode, and the attenuation network ensures that the signal is not saturated. The attenuated signal is input to the gain-adjustable amplifier.

[0055] like Figure 6 As shown, operational amplifiers U1, U2, U3, U4 and resistors R16, R17, R18, R19, R20, R21 together constitute an operational amplifier conditioning unit. The single-stage amplification factor of U1, U2, U3 operational amplifiers is 40dB, and different amplification gains can be selected in conjunction with the resistor attenuation network. U4 serves as a follower circuit to ensure impedance matching of the back-end signal.

[0056] like Figures 2-3 As shown, Figure 3 The medium and ultra-high frequency antenna 11, the channel conditioning module 12, the data acquisition module, and the processing and analysis module are all installed on a shell 15. The ultra-high frequency antenna 11 is located at the bottom of the shell 15, and the channel conditioning module, the data acquisition module, and the processing and analysis module are located inside the shell 15.

[0058] The processing and analysis module is composed of U1 advanced microcontroller, power supply and other peripheral circuits. The power supply supplies power to the channel conditioning module 12 and the signal acquisition, processing and transmission module. The microcontroller U1 converts the analog signal conditioned by the channel conditioning module 12 into a digital signal. The digital signal is sent to the communication unit through the communication interface, and the drone sends it wirelessly to the handheld signal receiving and analysis terminal 3 unit.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, the handheld signal receiving and analysis terminal 3 unit has amplitude detection, phase spectrum detection, pulse spectrum detection and waveform spectrum detection functions, and also has PRPD and PRPS spectrum functions, and fault type identification functions. The handheld signal receiving and analysis terminal 3 unit obtains partial discharge data and fault point images wirelessly, and quickly and accurately determines the location, morphology and fault type of the partial discharge fault point.

[0060] In a specific embodiment, the partial discharge detection unit 1 is installed on the drone-mounted unit 2 by screws, and the collected signal is sent to the drone-mounted unit 2 by wired connection, and then transmitted back to the handheld signal receiving and analysis terminal 3 by the drone-mounted unit 2 using its own control communication unit, thereby avoiding electromagnetic wave interference generated by the device under test when performing close-range signal transmission around the device under test.

[0061] In a specific embodiment, the data acquisition module 24 is an advanced microcontroller U1, and the microcontroller U1 converts the analog signal conditioned by the channel conditioning module 1223 into a digital signal, and the digital signal is transmitted to the drone carrying unit 2 via the serial port.

[0062] like Figure 7-Figure 8As shown, the analog signal conditioned by the channel conditioning module 1223 is connected to the 27# pin (ADC12_IN9) of the microcontroller, and the microcontroller ADC converts the analog signal conditioned by the channel conditioning module 1223 into a digital signal. The ADC resolution of the microcontroller is 12 bits, and the conditioned analog signal can be collected at a sampling rate of 2MHz, which can ensure the accuracy of data collection. The digitally processed data information is stored in the storage unit of the microcontroller. The 16 (USART2_TX) and 17 (USART2_RX) pins of the microcontroller are respectively connected to the serial port in the drone carrying unit 2 for serial communication. The drone carrying unit 2 transmits the stored digitized UHF signal and the flight position of the drone wirelessly, and the signal receiving and analyzing terminal 4 obtains the spatial position and partial discharge data of the drone in a wireless manner. Through the UHF interference signal collection and identification algorithm, the UHF signal result of filtering out the existing interference signal is obtained, and then through the UHF signal processing algorithm, considering the attenuation factors such as time difference and space, the location, shape and fault type of the partial discharge fault point are quickly and accurately determined.

[0063] The embodiment of the present application also provides a method for detecting ultra-high frequency partial discharge carried by a drone, characterized in that the method comprises:
