Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for melting ice on a power transmission line, and in particular to a method for melting ice on a power transmission line based on adjustable inductance. Background Art

[0002] In the field of power transmission and transformation, icing of transmission lines is one of the serious problems faced. Icing will increase the load on the transmission lines, causing tower collapse or transmission line breakage, resulting in serious economic losses.

[0003] In the prior art, there are mainly the following ways to melt ice on power transmission lines: one is mechanical, that is, to vibrate the transmission line by vibration, thereby causing the ice to fall off, such as by tapping it with a drone. Although this method can remove ice, it will cause the transmission line to generate a greater instantaneous impact load, resulting in a safety hazard. Another method is to use electric current to melt ice. However, in the existing electric current melting method, in order to melt the ice, a large current is required to generate enough heat, and the end of the ice melting needs to be short-circuited to form a loop. The large current can easily cause the protection mechanism in the transmission line to malfunction. Even if the protection is disconnected, a very large current will be generated at the end of the ice melting, causing the transmission line to burn.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, it is urgent to propose a new technical means. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a transmission line de-icing method based on adjustable inductance, wherein an adjustable inductance is arranged at the de-icing end of the de-icing section of the transmission line, and the compensation of the inductance and the reactive power consumption brought by the system are offset against each other during de-icing, so that the transmission line will no longer be affected during the de-icing process, thereby effectively ensuring the safety of the transmission line during the de-icing process, and the whole process and system are simple, reliable, and easy to operate.

[0006] The present invention provides a transmission line de-icing method based on adjustable inductance, comprising an adjustable inductor, wherein the input end of the de-icing section of the transmission line is connected to a DC power supply through an electrically controlled switch I, the output end of the de-icing section of the transmission line is connected to one end of the adjustable inductor through an electrically controlled switch II, and the other end of the adjustable inductor is grounded;

[0007] The ice melting method specifically comprises:

[0008] S1. Detect the amount of ice on the transmission line;

[0009] S2. Determine whether the ice coverage of the transmission line reaches the set value. If so, control the circuit breaker of the distribution network where the transmission line is located to disconnect, and control the transmission line to exit the overcurrent protection and bus differential protection;

[0010] S3. Adjust the inductance value of the adjustable inductor to the maximum value, and control the electric control switch I and the electric control switch II to close;

[0011] S4. Control the adjustable inductance value to decrease until the ice-melting current flowing through the transmission line reaches a set value;

[0012] S5. After the ice melting is completed, the inductance value of the adjustable inductor is controlled to increase to the maximum value, and the electronically controlled switch I and the electronically controlled switch II are disconnected;

[0013] S6. Control the overcurrent protection of the transmission line, busbar differential protection and distribution network circuit breaker to be put into operation.

[0014] Furthermore, it also includes a control unit, which is used to control the distribution network circuit breaker, the protection switch, and the electric control switch I and the electric control switch II to close or open.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes an icing monitoring module, which is used to detect the icing status of the target transmission line and output it to the control unit.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a current sensor, which is used to monitor the ice melting current of the transmission line and output a current monitoring signal to the control unit.

[0017] Furthermore, it also includes a positioning module, which is used to obtain the current position of the ice-melting section of the transmission line and output it to the control unit, and the control unit uploads the position information for early warning.

[0018] Beneficial effects of the present invention: Through the present invention, an adjustable inductor is set at the ice-melting end of the ice-melting section of the transmission line.

[0024] The present invention is further described in detail below:

[0025] The present invention provides a transmission line de-icing method based on adjustable inductance, comprising an adjustable inductor, wherein the input end of the de-icing section of the transmission line is connected to a DC power supply through an electrically controlled switch I, the output end of the de-icing section of the transmission line is connected to one end of the adjustable inductor through an electrically controlled switch II, and the other end of the adjustable inductor is grounded; Figure 3 As shown in the figure, in practice, the transmission line is 3-phase, with adjustable inductance and adjustable capacitance. Figure 4 is an equivalent circuit, AC is a DC power supply, CB1 is an electronically controlled switch I, R1 is the line equivalent resistance, L2 is the line equivalent inductance, C1 and C2 are the line equivalent capacitances, and L2 is an adjustable inductor.

[0026] The ice melting method specifically comprises:

[0027] S1. Detect the amount of ice on the transmission line; wherein, the amount of ice can be detected by an ice monitoring module, and the ice monitoring module can be obtained by using an existing tension sensor, a pull sensor or a high-definition camera. The detection methods of the tension sensor and the pull sensor are both set on the towers at both ends of the transmission line. If there is no ice, the tension or tension is relatively fixed and near an initial value (of course, it will increase to a certain extent under wind speed). Then, at this time, a compensation judgment is made through a temperature sensor. For example, when the tension reaches the set value, it may be caused by ice or wind. Then, the temperature signal output by the temperature sensor is used to judge whether the current ambient temperature will cause ice, so as to make a supplementary judgment. It is more intuitive to obtain images through a high-definition camera, and the amount of ice is analyzed through the existing image processing method;

[0028] S2. Determine whether the ice coverage of the transmission line reaches the set value. If so, control the circuit breaker of the distribution network where the transmission line is located to disconnect, and control the transmission line to exit the overcurrent protection and bus differential protection; that is, make the overcurrent protection device and the bus differential protection device withdraw from the connection with the transmission line;

[0029] S3. Adjust the inductance value of the adjustable inductor to the maximum value, and control the electric control switch I and the electric control switch II to close; wherein the adjustable inductor adopts the existing automatic adjustable inductor and is controlled by the control unit;

[0030] S4. Control the adjustable inductance value to decrease until the ice-melting current flowing through the transmission line reaches a set value; the ice-melting current flowing through the transmission line is realized by an existing current sensor, such as a current transformer, an electromagnetic current sensor (such as a TMR tunnel magnetoresistive current sensor), etc.;

[0031] S5. After the ice melting is completed, the inductance value of the adjustable inductor is controlled to increase to the maximum value, and the electronically controlled switch I and the electronically controlled switch II are disconnected; wherein the electronically controlled switch can be realized by an existing relay, contactor, etc., or can be realized by a semiconductor electronic switch such as an IGBT, a MOS tube, etc.;

[0032] S6. Control the overcurrent protection, bus differential protection and distribution network circuit breaker of the transmission line to be put into operation. Through the above method, an adjustable inductor is set at the de-icing end of the de-icing section of the transmission line, and the compensation of the inductor and the reactive power consumption brought by the system are offset during de-icing, so that the transmission line will not be affected during the de-icing process, thereby effectively ensuring the safety of the transmission line during the de-icing process, and the whole process and system are simple, reliable and easy to operate.

[0033] In this embodiment, a control unit is also included, and the control unit is used to control the distribution network circuit breaker, the protection switch, and the electric control switch I and the electric control switch II to close or open, wherein the protection switch refers to the connection switch between the overcurrent protection device, the bus differential protection device and the transmission line. The control unit adopts an existing control chip, an industrial computer, etc.

[0034] In this embodiment, a positioning module is also included, and the positioning module is used to obtain the current position of the ice-melting section of the transmission line and output it to the control unit, and the control unit uploads the position information for early warning. The positioning module uses an existing GPS positioning module or Beidou positioning module to mark the position of the ice-melting section of the transmission line. The control unit uploads the position information, the monitoring information before ice-melting, and the ice-melting process information to the distribution network operation and maintenance dispatching center for subsequent inspection and tracing.
