Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of relay protection in power systems, and in particular to a single-phase grounding fault distance protection method, device, equipment and medium for a double-ended weakly-fed system line. Background Technique

[0002] In recent years, with the development of new energy grid-connected power generation technology, the power electronic characteristics of the power grid have become increasingly obvious. This new development trend has significantly changed the fault characteristics of the power system. Especially with the emergence of ultra-long-distance and large-capacity power transmission scenarios such as deep-sea and far-sea offshore wind power and "desert, gobi, and wasteland" new energy bases, the flexible DC transmission technology has attracted extensive attention from domestic and foreign scholars. For example, a demonstration project of offshore wind power transmitted through flexible DC has been built in Rudong, Jiangsu.

[0003] The transmission lines of the offshore wind power transmitted through flexible DC system are all typical double-ended weakly-fed system lines. The converters at both ends of the line are composed of a large number of power electronic devices. The fault characteristics are affected by the control strategies of the converters on both sides and have the characteristics of limited amplitude and controlled phase. Due to different converter control strategies in different scenarios, in the case of a single-phase grounding fault, the positive-sequence, negative-sequence and zero-sequence equivalent networks in the composite sequence network are connected in series, and the current in the zero-sequence network also shows a controlled characteristic, which will cause the traditional distance protection to be unable to correctly identify the single-phase grounding fault of the double-ended weakly-fed system outgoing line.

Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides a single-phase grounding fault distance protection method, device, equipment and medium for a double-ended weakly-fed system line, thereby effectively solving the problems in the background technology.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a single-phase grounding fault distance protection method for a double-ended weakly-fed system line, including the following steps:

[0007] S10: Collect the real-time electrical quantities of three-phase voltage and three-phase current through the voltage transformer and current transformer installed on the MMC side, and calculate the change rates of d-axis and q-axis currents;

[0008] S20: Monitor whether the change rates of the d-axis and q-axis currents continuously exceed the starting threshold value within a set time window. If so, the protection device starts; if not, return to step S10 to continue monitoring;

[0009] S30: After the protection device is activated, the collected three-phase current is converted into positive-sequence, negative-sequence, and zero-sequence components using the symmetrical component method, and combined with the control characteristics in the double-ended weakly-fed system, the measured impedance during single-phase grounding faults is calculated.

[0010] S40: According to the negative-sequence voltage suppression control strategy on the MMC side and the negative-sequence current suppression control strategy of the wind turbine generator set, the adaptive compensation coefficient is solved to eliminate the influence of the transition resistance on the measured impedance.

[0011] S50: The adaptive compensation coefficient is respectively used for phase shift compensation with the measured impedance phase and the line impedance phase to obtain the compensated measured impedance and the compensated line impedance.

[0012] S60: Based on the compensated measured impedance and the compensated line impedance, the imaginary part is extracted and the fault distance α is calculated, and the calculation error caused by the transition resistance is eliminated through mathematical analysis methods to ensure the accuracy of the fault distance.

[0013] S70: A logical judgment is made on the calculation result of the fault distance α to determine the fault section, and corresponding protection actions are triggered according to the fault section.

[0014] Further, in step S20, within the set time window, it is monitored whether the change rates of the d-axis and q-axis currents continuously exceed the startup threshold value. If so, the protection device is activated; if not, return to step S10 to continue monitoring. The startup criterion of the protection device includes:

[0020] Further, in step S30, after the protection device is started, the collected three-phase current is converted into positive sequence, negative sequence, and zero sequence components by using the symmetrical component method, and combined with the control characteristics in the double-ended weakly-fed system, the measured impedance during single-phase ground fault is calculated. The model of the measured impedance includes:

[0021]

[0022] In the formula, Z MMC-AG is the measured impedance during single-phase ground fault, is the phasor of phase A voltage, is the phasor of phase A current, is the zero sequence component of phase A current, K = (z0 - z1) / (3z1), z1 is the positive sequence impedance per unit length of the AC transmission line, and z0 is the zero sequence impedance per unit length of the AC transmission line.

[0023] Further, in step S40, according to the negative sequence voltage suppression control strategy on the MMC side and the negative sequence current suppression control strategy of the wind turbine generator set, the adaptive compensation coefficient is solved to eliminate the influence of the transition resistance on the measured impedance.

[0035] Further, in step S70, perform a logical judgment on the calculation result of the fault distance α to determine the fault section, and trigger corresponding protection actions according to the fault section, including:

[0036] If the calculation result of the fault distance α satisfies the in-zone fault determination condition 0 < α < α set.1 for x1 consecutive sampling points, then the protection determines that it is an in-zone fault of the AC transmission line, meeting the action criterion of the first section of the distance protection on the MMC side;

[0037] If the calculation result of the fault distance α satisfies the lower-level line fault condition α set.1 < α < α set.2 for x2 consecutive sampling points, then the protection determines that it is a lower-level line fault of the AC transmission line, meeting the time-delay action criterion of the second section of the distance protection on the MMC side, and set the time delay Δt1 to 0.2 s as the backup protection criterion of this protection method;

[0038] If the above determination conditions are not satisfied within the set time Δt2, then the protection should determine that it is an out-of-zone fault of the AC transmission line or the system is in normal operation, and the protection does not operate.

[0062] Next, in combination with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0063] Embodiment 1:

[0064] In order to overcome the problems of refusal to operate and misoperation that may be faced when a single-phase ground fault occurs in the AC line of a double-ended weakly-fed system, the present invention proposes a single-phase ground fault distance protection method for the line of a double-ended weakly-fed system based on the phase adaptive compensation of the measured impedance, and takes the line of a double-ended weakly-fed system in which an offshore wind turbine is connected to an MMC converter station through a collection line and an AC transmission line as an example for analysis. The schematic diagram of the offshore wind power connected to the power grid is as Figure 1 shown. The offshore wind farm is connected to a 220 kV step-up substation, and then sent to the flexible DC transmission system through the AC transmission line and incorporated into the land system.

[0065] As Figure 2 shown: A single-phase ground fault distance protection method for the line of a double-ended weakly-fed system includes the following steps:

[0066] S10: Through the voltage transformer and current transformer installed on the MMC (flexible DC converter) side, collect the real-time electrical quantities of the three-phase voltage and three-phase current, and calculate the change rates of the d-axis and q-axis currents;

[0067] S20: Within the set time window, monitor whether the change rates of the d-axis and q-axis currents continuously exceed the starting threshold value. If so, the protection device starts; if not, return to step S10 to continue monitoring;

[0068] S30: After the protection device starts, use the symmetrical component method to convert the collected three-phase current into positive-sequence, negative-sequence, and zero-sequence components, and combine the control characteristics in the double-ended weakly-fed system to calculate the measured impedance during a single-phase ground fault;

[0069] S40: According to the negative-sequence voltage suppression control strategy on the MMC (flexible DC converter) side and the negative-sequence current suppression control strategy of the wind turbine, solve the adaptive compensation coefficient to eliminate the influence of the transition resistance on the measured impedance;

[0070] S50: Perform offset compensation on the measured impedance phase and the line impedance phase with the adaptive compensation coefficient respectively to obtain the compensated measured impedance and the compensated line impedance;

[0071] S60: Based on the compensated measured impedance and the compensated line impedance, extract the imaginary part and calculate the fault distance α, and eliminate the calculation error caused by the transition resistance through a mathematical analysis method to ensure the accuracy of the fault distance;

[0072] S70: Logically judge the calculation result of the fault distance α to determine the fault section, and trigger corresponding protection actions according to the fault section.

[0073] This method focuses on solving the problem that distance protection may malfunction incorrectly in the case of single-phase grounding faults in the AC transmission lines of a double-ended weakly-fed system. The research object is a typical double-ended weakly-fed system, where one end of the transmission line is a marine wind turbine and the other end is a flexible DC converter. A single-phase grounding fault distance protection method for the transmission lines of a double-ended weakly-fed system based on the phase adaptive compensation of the measured impedance is proposed. During the fault, the flexible DC converter adopts a negative-sequence voltage suppression control strategy, and the wind turbine adopts a negative-sequence current suppression control strategy. The adaptive phase shift compensation coefficient is calculated using the electrical quantities on the MMC side, the fault distance is obtained using a deformed form of the existing ground distance impedance relay expression, and the solution result is logically judged, enabling the protection to quickly and reliably distinguish between internal and external faults, which is of great significance for ensuring the safe and reliable operation of the transmission lines of the double-ended weakly-fed system.

[0074] The additional impedance angle and the adaptive compensation coefficient are solved through the three-phase electrical quantities of the flexible DC converter. The measured impedance is adaptively compensated by reverse phase shift. The influence of the transition resistance on the protection performance is theoretically eliminated using mathematical analysis methods, and the fault location is accurately calculated, enabling the protection to correctly and quickly act under different operating modes, reactive power support requirements, transition resistances, and fault locations, ensuring the safe and reliable operation of the transmission lines of the double-ended weakly-fed system, reducing the hardware requirements and computational load of the protection device, and having good engineering application prospects.

[0075] In a double-ended weakly-fed system, the fault characteristics are affected by the control strategies of the converters at both ends. Traditional distance protection methods are prone to refusal or misoperation. The present invention combines the negative-sequence voltage suppression control strategy of the flexible DC converter and the negative-sequence current suppression control strategy of the wind turbine, and uses the adaptive compensation technology to adapt to the special requirements of the weakly-fed system and ensure the effectiveness and reliability of the protection system in such an environment.

[0076] When calculating the fault distance, the error caused by the transition resistance is eliminated using mathematical analysis methods, improving the system's ability to resist transition resistance. Even in the presence of a large transition resistance, the system can maintain a high fault location accuracy and protection action reliability.

[0077] Taking the A-phase grounding fault of the AC outgoing line as an example, the fault system topology is as Figure 3 shown, where R g is the grounding transition resistance, α is the ratio of the distance from the fault point to the line head end of the MMC side, and Z Lis the line impedance. The HVDC side distance protection device respectively collects the three-phase voltages at the protection installation location on this side through a voltage transformer and the three-phase currents flowing through the protection installation location through a current transformer, and converts the electrical real-time quantities u MMC-A (t), u MMC-B (t), u MMC-C (t) and i MMC-A (t), i MMC-B (t), i MMC-C (t) into the three-phase voltage phasors and the three-phase current phasors for analysis.

[0078] In this embodiment, the protection device collects the d-axis and q-axis values of the current in the current inner loop of the sending-end MMC converter controller, and calculates the d-axis and q-axis current change rates. The time window for protection startup judgment is adjusted according to the reliability requirements in actual projects. In this method, the judgment time window δt of the protection startup criterion is set to 1 ms, and the sampling frequency is 1200 Hz. When the difference of the d-axis and q-axis currents with respect to time continuously exceeds the startup threshold value within the time window δt, the protection starts.

[0079] As an optimization of the above embodiment, in step S20, within the set time window, it is monitored whether the d-axis and q-axis current change rates continuously exceed the startup threshold value. If so, the protection device starts; if not, it returns to step S10 to continue monitoring. The startup criterion of the protection device includes:

[0080]

[0081] ΔI d =I d (t)-I d (t - Δt);

[0082] ΔI q =I q (t)-I q (t - Δt);

[0083] Δt=1 / f s ;

[0084] In the formula, I d (t) and I q (t) are the per-unit values of the d-axis and q-axis currents of the current inner loop of the sending-end MMC controller, f s is the protection sampling frequency, ε1 and ε2 are the startup threshold values, and 10 times the maximum change rate of I d and I q with time within the first 5 ms of the sampling points is used as the protection startup threshold.

[0085] Using the rate of change of d-axis and q-axis currents as the starting criterion can quickly capture the current change characteristics during a fault. By setting the time window and starting threshold, the protection device can be triggered to start within a short time, reducing the impact of the fault on the system operation and improving the response speed of the protection action; adopting the maximum change value of the rate of change of d-axis and q-axis currents within the first 5 ms before the sampling point and taking 10 times of it as the starting threshold can effectively avoid false triggering caused by normal system fluctuations or small disturbances, and can maintain the stability and anti-interference ability of the protection in a complex power grid operation environment.

[0086] In this embodiment, in step S30, after the protection device starts, the collected three-phase currents are converted into positive-sequence, negative-sequence, and zero-sequence components by using the symmetrical component method, and combined with the control characteristics in the double-ended weak-feed system, the measured impedance during a single-phase ground fault is calculated. The model of the measured impedance includes:

[0087]

[0088] In the formula, Z MMC-AG is the measured impedance during a single-phase ground fault, is the phasor of phase A voltage, is the phasor of phase A current, is the zero-sequence component of phase A current, K = (z0 - z1) / (3z1), z1 is the positive-sequence impedance per unit length of the AC transmission line, and z0 is the zero-sequence impedance per unit length of the AC transmission line.

[0089] The measured impedance calculated by the phase A ground distance relay on the MMC side can be decomposed into:

[0090]

[0091] The additional impedance Z add and its phase φ add The expressions are:

[0092]

[0093] Among them, in step S40, according to the negative-sequence voltage suppression control strategy on the MMC side and the negative-sequence current suppression control strategy of the wind turbine generator set, the adaptive compensation coefficient is solved to eliminate the influence of the transition resistance on the measured impedance. The model of the adaptive compensation coefficient includes:

[0094]

[0095] In the formula, is the adaptive compensation coefficient, j is the imaginary unit, is the negative-sequence component of phase A current, is the zero-sequence component of phase A current, is the phasor of phase A current, K = (z0 - z1) / (3z1), where z1 is the positive sequence impedance per unit length of the AC transmission line, and z0 is the zero sequence impedance per unit length of the AC transmission line.

[0096] By combining the proportional relationship between negative sequence current and zero sequence current, and the difference between positive sequence and zero sequence impedances of the line, an adaptive compensation coefficient is constructed, effectively eliminating the influence of transition resistance on the measured impedance, improving the accuracy of fault measurement, especially the adaptability in high transition resistance scenarios.

[0097] As an optimization of the above embodiment, in step S50, the adaptive compensation coefficient is respectively used for offset compensation of the phases of the measured impedance and the line impedance to obtain the compensated measured impedance and the compensated line impedance. The models of the compensated measured impedance and the line impedance respectively include:

[0098]

[0099] In the formula, Z′ MMC-AG is the compensated measured impedance, Z MMC-AG is the measured impedance, Z′ L is the compensated line impedance, Z L is the line impedance, α is the proportion of the distance from the fault point to the head of the line on the MMC side, Z add is the additional impedance, j is the imaginary unit, is the adaptive compensation coefficient.

[0100] Introducing the adaptive compensation coefficient to perform offset compensation on the phases of the measured impedance and the line impedance effectively eliminates the interference of system characteristics and operating state changes on the protection action, making the protection system more stable under complex operating conditions.

[0101] Among them, in step S60, based on the compensated measured impedance and the line impedance, the imaginary parts of the two parts are taken simultaneously for mathematical derivation of the model:

[0102]

[0103] In the formula, Z′ MMC-AG is the compensated measured impedance, α is the fault distance, Z L is the line impedance, Z′ L is the compensated line impedance, is the adaptive compensation coefficient, Z add is the additional impedance.

[0104] Through the above imaginary part operation model, the impedance measurement error caused by transition resistance and weak feed characteristics is eliminated, ensuring the positioning accuracy in complex fault scenarios.

[0105] In this embodiment, in step S60, the model of the fault distance α includes:

[0106]

[0107] In the formula, α is the fault distance, and Z′ MMC-AG is the compensated measured impedance, and Z′ L is the compensated line impedance.

[0108] By calculating through the imaginary part of the compensated impedance, the error caused by the change of impedance amplitude or other interference factors is avoided, ensuring the stability and robustness of the calculation result. The model calculation is based on simple imaginary part operations, with a lightweight algorithm, capable of quickly completing fault location, meeting the high requirements for response speed in real-time protection scenarios.

[0109] As an optimization of the above embodiment, in step S70, a logical judgment is made on the calculation result of the fault distance α to determine the fault section, and corresponding protection actions are triggered according to the fault section, including:

[0110] If the calculation result of the fault distance α satisfies the in-zone fault determination condition 0 < α < α for x1 consecutive sampling points set.1 then the protection determines that it is an in-zone fault of the AC transmission line, meeting the action criterion of the first section of the distance protection on the MMC side;

[0111] If the calculation result of the fault distance α satisfies the lower-level line fault condition α set.1 < α < α set.2 for x2 consecutive sampling points, then the protection determines that it is a fault of the lower-level line of the AC transmission line, meeting the action criterion of the second section of the distance protection on the MMC side with a time delay of Δt1 set to 0.2 s as the backup protection criterion of this protection method;

[0112] If the above determination conditions are not satisfied within the set time Δt2, then the protection should determine that it is an out-of-zone fault of the AC transmission line or the system is in normal operation, and the protection does not operate.

[0113] Among them, the above α set.1 and α set.2 are the protection ranges of the distance protection. The range of the first section is 80%, and the range of the second section is 120%.

[0114] Based on the monitoring of consecutive sampling points of the fault distance and the logical judgment of the interval conditions, it can accurately distinguish in-zone faults, lower-level line faults, and out-of-zone faults; through the dynamic sampling point determination conditions 0 < α < α set.1 and α set.1 < α < α set.2 the influence of transient interference or measurement error on the determination result is effectively avoided, ensuring the reliability of the protection action.

[0115] For internal faults, the first section of the distance protection on the MMC side can act quickly to isolate the fault point in time and prevent the expansion of the fault.

[0116] For faults on the downstream line, the second section of the protection acts with a time delay to provide reliable backup protection and avoid incorrect tripping or affecting system operation due to overly fast operation.

[0117] For external faults or normal operating conditions, the protection does not act, reducing the possibility of incorrect operation and ensuring system stability.

[0118] This method takes the offshore wind power system with negative sequence voltage control on the MMC converter side and negative sequence current control on the wind turbine side as a typical application scenario of a double-ended weak system, constructs the system composite sequence network diagram under single-phase grounding faults, calculates the fault distance using the electrical quantities on the MMC converter side, and establishes a new protection strategy on this basis to solve the problem of incorrect operation faced by existing distance protection in double-ended weak feed systems.

[0119] At the same time, this method combines the single-phase grounding impedance relay and the composite sequence network electrical quantity equation, calculates the adaptive coefficient based on unilateral information, adaptively compensates the phase of the measured impedance and the phase of the line impedance, eliminates the influence of the transition resistance on the protection, and can adapt to various complex fault conditions.

The offshore wind farm is connected to the 220 kV main transformer through a 35 kV collector system. The capacity of the wind farm is 600 MW. The positive sequence impedance of the protected line is Z1 = 0.018 + j0.3 Ω / km, the zero sequence impedance is Z0 = 0.295 + j1.040 Ω / km, and the line length is 100 km. F1, F2, and F3 are located at 50%, 70%, and 90% of the line starting end from the MMC side respectively. F4 is located on the collector line. The signal acquisition frequency is 1200 Hz. Take x1 = 30, x2 = 40, α set.1 = 0.8, α set.2 = 1.2. The calculation results are as Figures 5 to 7 shown.

[0122] As the transition resistance changes, the protection can act within 40 ms after the fault occurs. After 70 ms, α stabilizes near the fault location, and the fault location can be accurately judged. The protection action time is shown in Table 1. t Ⅰ is the action time of the first section of the protection, and t Ⅱ is the action time of the second section of the protection.

[0123] Table 1 Simulation protection action conditions

[0124]

[0125] As can be seen from the above table, the proposed protection algorithm can correctly calculate the fault distance under the ground fault, and the protection can operate within 40 ms, and has strong ability to resist the transition resistance.

[0126] The characteristics of the weak-feed system are closely related to the system capacity. The capacity of the offshore wind farm is set at 800 MW, and the protection operation is shown in Table 2.

[0127] Table 2 Protection operation after the change of the wind farm capacity

[0128]

[0129] As can be seen from the above table, the proposed protection strategy can still operate normally under different capacities of the offshore wind farm, can correctly calculate the fault distance, and the proposed protection scheme is little affected by the weak-feed characteristics of the offshore wind farm.
