Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil-immersed power equipment technology, and more specifically, to a method for evaluating the arc fault tolerance capability of key structures in oil-immersed power equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Oil-immersed electrical equipment, such as transformers, tap changers, and risers, inevitably suffers from arcing faults. High-energy arcing faults can lead to structural damage to the equipment and uncontrolled leakage of the insulating oil inside. This oil can then cause a fire or explosion upon contact with air. The leaked oil-gas mixture can further endanger surrounding equipment, personnel, and the environment, causing significant losses and adverse effects.

[0003] Currently, oil-immersed power equipment generally does not undergo explosion-proof verification, but only some low static pressure factory tests, such as positive and negative pressure tests. These tests are mainly to check the sealing performance of the oil tank and the oil carrying capacity during normal operation. Some transformer manufacturers at home and abroad have put forward explosion-proof requirements and carried out explosion-proof verification and design for transformers, but they still use iterative methods based on static pressure. The verification criteria are mainly based on structural stress and strain, ignoring the failure and damage caused by impact loads under arc faults.

[0004] In the general mechanical and materials fields, quasi-static and dynamic impact test specifications and standards have been established for materials or structures, such as uniaxial tension, three-point bending, Charpy test, pendulum and drop hammer test, etc. However, most of them require the processing of standard specimens, and the test conditions are different from the impact load conditions of arc faults, and the stress state of transformer structures in arc faults is not considered.

[0005] As voltage levels increase, arc fault energy rises, and impact loads become greater. If existing static verification methods are used, the verification standards are too stringent and cannot effectively guide the design and verification of explosion-proof transformers. Directly assessing explosion resistance based on quasi-static and impact tests of existing materials and structures cannot accurately reflect the stress state of the transformer tank under actual arc fault conditions, nor can it accurately correlate test results with the arc fault tolerance of key transformer structures. Summary of the Invention

[0059] Exemplary methods

[0060] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for evaluating the arc fault tolerance of key structures in oil-immersed power equipment according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment can be applied to electronic devices, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method 100 for evaluating the arc fault tolerance capability of key structures in oil-immersed power equipment includes the following steps:

[0061] Step 101: Conduct impact load tests and simulation calculations on each structure of the oil-immersed power equipment to determine the mapping relationship between the test failure characterization quantity and the simulation failure characterization quantity of each structure and to construct the structural failure surface.

[0062] Step 102: Conduct an equivalent impact test on the key structure to be evaluated of the oil-immersed power equipment to obtain the key structure test failure characterization quantity of the key structure to be evaluated.

[0065] Specifically, in response to the technical problems existing in the background art, this invention proposes a method for evaluating the arc fault tolerance capability of key structures in oil-immersed power equipment. The specific steps are as follows: Figure 2 As shown:

[0066] Step 1: Material Mechanical Property Testing. Different mechanical property tests are conducted on the transformer tank material to calculate and obtain the material's constitutive model and failure model. The construction of the constitutive model and failure model should consider the effects of strain rate and stress state, such as the Johnson-Cook (JC) constitutive model and Johnson-Cook (JC) failure model. Therefore, different test methods / equipment are needed to achieve different strain rates in the mechanical property tests, such as using uniaxial tension for low-speed and quasi-static tension, and using Hopkinson bars for medium- and high-speed tests. The structure and parameters of the specimen are modified to control the stress state in the effective deformation zone. Based on the test results, the standard constitutive model and failure model equations are fitted, and the equation parameters are solved to obtain the corresponding constitutive model and failure model. When the test results are difficult to fit the standard constitutive model and failure model well, the standard model can be appropriately modified. In addition to constructing constitutive and failure models for the tank material, tests should also be conducted on the weld material and bolt material, and their constitutive and failure models should be constructed. (P.S.: Even with the same material, products from different manufacturers can exhibit differences in mechanical properties, especially in plastic deformation and failure behavior. Therefore, to obtain high-precision evaluations, it is necessary to build models of the specific materials used by the transformer manufacturers. Similarly, the same applies to bolt materials. The properties of welded mechanism materials are also affected by welding processes and other factors, resulting in variability, thus requiring model building.)

[0075] If the standard model does not agree well with the experimental results, the model can be modified. For example, the parameter C (strain rate influence term) in the JC constitutive model can be changed from a constant value to an expression such as C = 5.94 × 10⁻⁶ + 0.019.

[0076] Step 2: Transformer Arc Fault Simulation. This simulation obtains the stress state and load of the structure to be evaluated, as well as the boundary conditions of the sub-model (Step 3). The simulation model is based on the actual transformer structure, and the material properties of each structure are the constitutive model and failure model obtained in Step 1. The established simulation model is used for transient simulation of transformer arc faults, which can simulate the dynamic development process of the arc fault pressure wave and its interaction with the transformer structure. Therefore, the simulation model needs to have strong fluid-structure interaction calculation capabilities between the insulating oil and the transformer structure, while also showing the plastic deformation and failure of the structure well. The simulation model can be modeled and calculated on the LS-Dyna platform. The simulation can provide the impact load curve on each structure to be evaluated, as well as the stress state of the structure (such as tension, compression, shear, bending, or combined states). If the material failure criterion threshold (JC failure model in Step 1) is reached, the simulation can show the failure of the transformer, thereby identifying the potentially failed structure. Furthermore, by simulating the impact effect of arc faults at different high-probability fault locations on various structures of the transformer, the maximum impact load on the structure under a given arc energy is found, and this impact load is used as the equivalent impact test load basis. Because the actual fuel tank structure is large, it is impossible to fully and accurately represent the details of the structure under test in the simulation. Therefore, the failure characteristics are relatively coarse. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a fine sub-model of the structure to be evaluated to more accurately characterize the failure (step 3).

[0077] Step 3: The sub-model features more detailed meshing and structural detail representation, while also characterizing material heterogeneity (non-uniformity of material mechanical properties). The boundary conditions of the sub-model are obtained from the overall transformer model and are consistent with the corresponding parts in the overall model. The sub-model mainly targets high-risk structures in the transformer tank such as welds and bolts. The sub-model can be modeled using a solid model and meticulously set according to various contact and constraint conditions on the actual structure.

[0078] Step 4: Structural Equivalent Impact Test. An equivalent impact test is conducted on the high-risk failure structure obtained from the simulation in Step 2. The equivalent load application in the equivalent test is based on the obtained impact pressure curve, and equivalence is performed from the perspective of energy and impulse equivalence. Corresponding impact test parameters are set, such as the hammer counterweight and height in the drop hammer impact test. Furthermore, based on the stress state of the structure under test obtained from the simulation, corresponding tooling fixtures are designed to ensure that the specimen has the same stress state in the impact test. The failure characteristic quantities of the structural specimen are then obtained and compared with the failure characteristic quantities obtained from the structural sub-model simulation in Step 3.

[0079] Step 5: Construct the structural failure surface. Based on the structural failure characteristic quantities calculated in Step 3, construct the structural failure criteria. The failure criteria can be a single factor, such as the maximum deformation; or a composite factor, such as the maximum deformation and bending angle, to construct a spatial failure surface / plane. The specific failure criteria are selected based on the actual structure. For example, for thin-walled box structures, the maximum deformation and deflection can be used as parameters; for welded structures, bending angle and relative displacement can be used; and for threaded connection structures, screw elongation and bending angle can be used. The selected criteria are dimensionless and normalized to construct failure points (failure characteristic value 1, failure characteristic value 2, ..., failure characteristic value n). All m failure points obtained from simulation and experiment can be plotted in n-dimensional space, and further, an n-dimensional failure surface can be fitted based on these m failure points. When the failure characteristic quantity of the specimen obtained in the equivalent impact test falls on the failure surface or exceeds its range, it is considered a failure. If it is within the range, the ratio of the magnitude of the characteristic quantity vector to the vector magnitude of the point projected on the failure surface is calculated to calculate the failure probability. Figure 3 As shown, taking two failure characteristic values ​​as an example, the construction and evaluation of the criterion are explained.

[0080] Step 6: By comparing the failure characteristics in the simulation with the failure characteristics obtained from the equivalent impact test, a mapping relationship of structural failure characteristic quantities is constructed, such as the relative maximum deformation in the equivalent impact test and the deformation of the corresponding structure in the simulation. Subsequent equivalent impact tests can use this mapping relationship to calculate the structural failure characteristic quantities and conduct explosion-proof capability assessments. The boundary conditions for the critical structural deformation failure in a real-world transformer tank arc fault and the structural deformation failure in the equivalent impact test cannot be completely consistent. For example, in the welded structure of the top cover and sidewalls, the boundary conditions in a real-world tank also include the deformation and displacement of the top cover and sidewalls, while the equivalent impact test cannot simulate this deformation and position, and can only use fixed constraints. Therefore, mapping of failure characteristic quantities is necessary.

[0081] Step 7: Assessment of Structural Arc Fault Tolerance. Using equivalent impact tests and the mapping relationship established in Step 6, the structural failure characteristic quantities are calculated. Comparing these with the failure surface established in Step 5, the structure's arc fault tolerance is assessed. The assessment algorithm is as follows:

[0082]

[0083] Therefore, this invention calculates the impact loads acting on different transformer structures based on a strong fluid-structure interaction algorithm of explicit dynamics; constructs failure criteria regarding strain rate and stress state; conducts mechanical property tests at different strain rates using tests with different structural sizes; and calculates the material failure surface. Based on the stress state of the transformer structure under arc faults, an impact testing fixture is designed to ensure that the test specimens reach the same stress state during the test. The time-varying arc fault impact load is equivalent to the energy and impulse equivalence method. This achieves impact tests that more closely approximate the actual arc fault load conditions.
