Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power equipment status monitoring, in particular to a transformer partial discharge source spatial positioning system. Background Art

[0002] Gas turbine generator sets are power generation devices consisting of gas turbines and generators. Compared with steam turbine generator sets, this type of unit has a simpler structure and fewer auxiliary equipment, so the investment, land occupation and power generation costs are lower than the former. Its insulation reliability affects the stable and safe operation of the power grid. Partial discharge is a tiny discharge caused by excessive field strength at the internal defects of the insulation of electrical equipment, which will accelerate the insulation degradation of the transformer and seriously affect the safe operation of the transformer.

[0003] The Chinese patent with announcement number CN118330411A discloses a system, method and device for spatial positioning of partial discharge sources of transformers. The signals of multiple ultra-high frequency sensors are distributed through high-speed switching switches, and only two-channel acquisition cards are used for data acquisition. After being processed by the signal conditioning circuit, the small window cross-correlation accumulation algorithm is used on the software side to calculate the signal arrival time difference between the reference sensor and other sensors, and the optimization objective function considering the non-line-of-sight error for path correction is substituted into it. The fireworks algorithm with gravity operator is used to calculate the position of the discharge source. The acquisition card hardware comprehensively considers the signal sampling accuracy and hardware cost, improves the accuracy of delay estimation and the global optimization ability of the algorithm in the positioning software algorithm, and considers the impact of non-line-of-sight propagation errors and the number of sensors based on TDOA positioning. The positioning accuracy is greatly improved by correcting the signal propagation path and increasing the number of sensors.
