[0002] With the rapid development of high-speed railways, higher requirements are placed on the reliability and economy of traction power supply systems. As the core equipment of the high-speed railway traction power supply system, the capacity design of the traction transformer directly affects the stability, energy efficiency and operating cost of the power supply system. Reasonable traction transformer capacity design can not only ensure the power supply needs of the train during high-speed operation, but also effectively reduce energy consumption and extend the service life of the equipment, thereby achieving the economy and sustainability of high-speed railway operations.

[0003] Traditional methods often use simplified temperature rise models to calculate transformer winding hot spot temperatures and life loss, without fully considering the impact of load changes and ambient temperature on transformer temperature rise.

[0074] In specific use, measured load data is collected from multiple high-speed rail traction substations, covering different time periods (such as weekdays, weekends, holidays) and different seasons (spring, summer, autumn, and winter). The data is classified by time period and season to analyze the load characteristics under different conditions. Statistical software (such as Excel, SPSS) is used to summarize the data and calculate the average load, maximum load, and minimum load for each time period and season.

[0075] Statistical methods (such as standard deviation, box plot) or machine learning algorithms (such as isolation forest) are used to identify data points that are beyond the normal range. For the identified abnormal data points, interpolation methods (such as linear interpolation, spline interpolation) or other appropriate methods are used to correct or delete them to ensure the consistency and reliability of the load data.

[0076] Use tools such as Matplotlib or Excel to draw typical load curves for different time periods and seasons based on statistical results, including daily load curves and annual load curves. Determine the temperature rise relationship between the hot spot temperature of the transformer winding and the top oil temperature through experiments or by consulting relevant literature, for example: 热点 =T 油项 +ΔΤ, where ΔΤ is the temperature rise coefficient. Using the typical load curve and temperature rise relationship, the dynamic change of the hot spot temperature of the transformer winding under different load conditions is calculated. Assuming that the change of temperature rise over time conforms to the exponential law, the exponential equation is established: Τ(t)=Τ 环境 +(Τ0-Τ 环境 ) -kt , where Τ(t) is the temperature rise at time t, Τ 环境 is the ambient temperature, Τ0 is the initial temperature rise, and k is the thermal conductivity. Considering the impact of ambient temperature changes on the temperature rise of the transformer, the relevant parameters in the exponential equation are adjusted. The accuracy and applicability of the temperature rise model are verified by simulating the temperature rise under different ambient temperature conditions.

[0077] According to the temperature rise calculation results, determine the reasonable range of traction transformer capacity to ensure that the temperature rise of the transformer does not exceed the allowable value under various load conditions. Analyze the initial investment cost and long-term operating cost of transformers of different capacity levels, including electricity costs, maintenance costs, etc. Comprehensively consider the performance indicators of the transformer (such as energy efficiency ratio, overload capacity), service life and maintenance costs, and select the transformer capacity with the highest cost performance.

[0078] Formulate specific optimization plans, including the selection of transformer capacity, installation location, design of cooling system, etc., implement the optimization plans in actual projects, and carry out on-site installation and commissioning. Test items include but are not limited to capacity utilization, temperature rise, and energy efficiency ratio, etc. Use portable temperature rise testers, power analyzers and other equipment to record the operating data of transformers under different load conditions.

[0079] A detailed analysis of the field test data was conducted to identify possible problems or deficiencies in the optimization scheme in actual operation. Combined with the actual operation requirements of the high-speed rail traction power supply system, specific problems (such as excessive temperature rise, low energy efficiency ratio, etc.) were identified. Based on the identified problems, targeted adjustments and improvements were made to the optimization scheme, such as adjusting the cooling system design, optimizing the operation strategy, etc. The adjusted optimization scheme was again field tested and verified to ensure that its performance in actual operation met the expected requirements.
