Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a water transmission and power generation system of a hydropower station, in particular to a hydraulic impedance calculation method taking into account the motion characteristics of a water turbine. Background Art

[0002] In recent decades, the structure of electric power energy has been gradually adjusted, and the proportion of intermittent renewable energy in the power grid has continued to increase, causing a great impact on the power grid. In order to adjust the parameters of the power grid, hydropower stations are required to deviate from the optimal operating conditions more frequently, and hydropower energy plays an irreplaceable role. In order to ensure the stable operation of the power system, the turbine undergoes many dynamic load imbalance states, and the flow state is complex during the process. At present, the operating stability of the mixed flow turbine under non-design conditions has become an issue that cannot be ignored. The adjustment of the unit's operating conditions will cause transient processes, and the unstable flow state in the flow channel may cause huge pressure oscillations and affect the stability of the unit and the safety of the power station. In recent years, the hydropower stations that have been built or are under construction are developing towards high head and large capacity. It is inevitable that they will operate under non-design conditions. Due to the disturbance in the flow channel, hydraulic resonance may occur, affecting the safety of the hydropower station. The hydraulic vibration research test method is costly, has safety hazards, is risky, and has great limitations.

[0003] As a key hydraulic component in a hydropower station, the calculation of hydraulic impedance of a turbine is closely related to the unit speed, flow, working head, and torque, and its dynamic characteristics play a vital role in the stability and safety of a hydropower station. In actual operation, if hydraulic vibration occurs in the system, the flow rate and pressure of the turbine runner will also change, and the equilibrium state of the turbine itself will be broken. The equilibrium state will be rebuilt during the transient process. However, in the current calculations related to hydraulic vibration characteristics, the turbine is regarded as a valve with a fixed orifice, ignoring the dynamic characteristics such as the unit speed and torque changes during the transient process.
