Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of railway signal ground equipment monitoring, and in particular to a method and device for monitoring track circuit problems based on traction return current data. Background Art

[0002] This section is intended to provide a background or context to the embodiments of the invention recited in the claims. No admission is made that the description herein is prior art by inclusion in this section.

[0003] In the electrified track section, the traction current enters the train power motor coil from the overhead line through the pantograph, and then leaks to the rail through the train wheelset, forming the traction return of the rail. The traction return of the rail will follow the ground wire near the rail substation and finally return to the substation. For the traction return of the rail, the rail plays the role of the neutral line. In order to ensure the normal return of the traction return of the rail, the rail must be unobstructed. However, due to the existence of the mechanical insulation joint, the return path is actually interrupted. In order to ensure the smooth return, a choke transformer will be added on both sides of the mechanical insulation joint, and the two choke transformers will be connected by a central connecting bar. The choke transformer will block the track circuit signal and allow the traction return signal of the rail to pass. Due to the design requirements of railway signal failure safety, it is prevented that a circuitous path is formed after the rail is broken, which causes the track circuit to be abnormally sucked up, and then causes a train collision accident. Therefore, it is not allowed to install a central connecting bar for the choke transformer of each track circuit section in the railway station. The situation where the choke transformer is not installed with the center connecting row on both sides of the insulation joint is called "one-end blocking". "One-end blocking" can easily lead to poor return flow, thereby increasing the voltage difference on both sides of the insulation joint. If the voltage difference on both sides of the insulation joint is too large, it will have a serious impact on the rails, causing rail failures, and thus affecting the normal driving of the vehicle.

[0033] Each step is described in detail below.

[0034] In step 101, electrical parameters are determined from a traction return circuit; the traction return circuit is a transmission circuit that starts from a wheel set of a vehicle, passes through a rail, a choke transformer and finally a pickup line.

[0035] In a specific embodiment, the traction return circuit transmitted from the vehicle to the rail surface is analyzed to determine electrical parameters, which include DC loss on the rail R, rail inductance L, rail susceptance to ground C, and rail leakage conductance to ground G.

[0036] In step 102, based on Kirchhoff's law, multiple transmission matrices in the rail section of the traction return circuit are calculated according to electrical parameters, and the multiple transmission matrices in the rail section are cascaded to obtain a cascaded full-section transmission matrix.

[0037] like Figure 2 The flowchart of obtaining the transmission matrix is ​​shown. In one embodiment, based on Kirchhoff's law, multiple transmission matrices in the rail section of the traction return circuit are calculated according to electrical parameters, including:

[0038] Step 201, based on Kirchhoff's law and according to the transmission line equation, respectively determine the correlation matrix between the output current value and the output voltage value of the vehicle in each rail section and the traction return current value of the rail and the output voltage of the rail, and determine the correlation matrix as a transmission matrix;

[0039] Step 202, calculating the corresponding transmission matrix according to the electrical parameters of each rail section.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, Kirchhoff's law, combined with the transmission line wave equation, can be used to list the relationship between the output voltage U and output current I of the locomotive to the rail and the voltage U(dz) on the rail and the traction return current I(dz) on the rail as follows:

[0042] Where γ is the propagation constant, expressed as:

[0043]

[0044] Z0 is the transmission impedance, expressed as:

[0045]

[0046] Where ω is the input signal angular frequency and j is an imaginary number.

[0047] In order to further solve the transmission matrix of the current on the rail, Converted into hyperbolic coordinates:

[0048]

[0049] Can be written as:

[0050]

[0051] In one embodiment, the corresponding transmission matrix is ​​calculated according to the electrical parameters of each rail section, including:

[0052] The transmission matrix is:

[0053]

[0054] Among them, γ is the propagation constant in electrical parameters, Z0 is the transmission impedance in electrical parameters, and N(dz) is the transmission matrix with a rail section length of dz.

[0055] In step 103, the traction power required by the vehicle during driving is obtained, and the output current value of the vehicle is calculated according to the traction power and the known overhead line voltage.

[0056] In one embodiment, obtaining the traction power required by the vehicle during driving, and calculating the output current value of the vehicle according to the traction power and the known contact network voltage, includes:

[0057] Calculate the traction power according to the vehicle speed and the vehicle traction;

[0058] Calculate the output current value of the vehicle based on the known contact network voltage value and traction power.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, the output current value of the vehicle is calculated based on the vehicle running speed, combined with the vehicle's electric power and the contact network voltage. Based on the dynamic detection data, the speed of the train when passing can be obtained, and the train electric power is calculated based on this, and then the output current of the vehicle is obtained in combination with the contact network voltage.

[0060] In a specific embodiment, the basic resistance W is calculated as follows:

[0061] W=2+0.0062v+0.00053v 2

[0062] When the vehicle is running, it is necessary to provide acceleration for the vehicle while overcoming resistance. The traction calculation formula is as follows:

[0063]

[0064] Traction power P tr The calculation formula is as follows:

[0065]

[0066] In one embodiment, the output current value of the vehicle is calculated according to the traction power and the known overhead line voltage, including:

[0067] Calculate the vehicle's output current value according to the following formula:

[0068]

[0069] In satisfying P tr =P e When the vehicle enters the driving state, P e is the vehicle's electrical power, P tr is the traction power, I is the output current value of the vehicle, W is the resistance, a is the vehicle acceleration, m is the vehicle mass, v is the vehicle speed, U is the overhead line voltage, is the rotational inertia coefficient.

[0070] In step 104, the traction return current value on the rail is calculated based on the cascaded full-section transmission matrix and the output current value of the vehicle.

[0071] In one embodiment, the traction return current value on the rail is calculated according to the cascaded full-section transmission matrix and the output current value of the vehicle, including:

[0072] The output current value of the vehicle is used as the input current value of the rail;

[0073] The traction return current value on the rail is calculated based on the cascaded full-section transmission matrix and the input current value of the rail.

[0074] In a specific embodiment, for a rail with a length of l, its transfer matrix N(l) can be equivalent to the differential of all transfer matrices N i , the cascaded full-segment transmission matrix N(l) is expressed as:

[0075]

[0076] Among them, n represents the rail length l is divided into n sections, N i Represents the transmission matrix of the i-th segment.

[0077] In one embodiment, the traction return current value on the rail is calculated according to the cascaded full-section transmission matrix and the input current value of the rail, including:

[0078] The traction return flow value on the rail is calculated according to the following formula:

[0079]

[0080] Among them, I(x) is the traction return current value on the rail, U(x) is the output voltage of the rail, L is the distance between the vehicle and the suction line, x is the horizontal coordinate of any point between the vehicle and the suction line, N(dz) is the transmission matrix with a rail section length of dz, U is the contact network voltage, and I is the input current value of the rail.

[0081] In step 105, the voltage difference of the rail insulation joint is calculated according to the traction return current value on the rail, and the track circuit is monitored for faults according to the voltage difference.

[0082] In a specific embodiment, taking the detection data of a certain actual line as an example, the electrical parameters of the rails corresponding to the section and the output current of the vehicle are input, and the changes in the traction return current of the left and right rails when the vehicle passes through three suction lines continuously are calculated. Figure 3 The left and right rail traction return flow change curve diagram in the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 3 (a) shows the left rail traction return flow change curve. Figure 3 (b) shows the right rail traction return flow change curve. The correlation coefficients between the simulation results and the measured data are calculated separately, and the correlation coefficients for the left rail and the right rail are 0.984 and 0.988, respectively, which proves that there is a strong correlation between the simulation data and the measured data, and can effectively reflect the transmission process of the traction return flow on the rail.

[0083] In a specific embodiment, Figure 4The figure shows the schematic diagram of the choke transformer. Assuming that the left and right rail traction return currents flowing into the input end of the choke transformer are I1 and I2 respectively, and the input side coil inductance amplitudes are L1 and L2 respectively, the input side voltage can be calculated by the following formula:

[0084] U in =(I2-I1)(jw(L1+L2))

[0085] Assume the pressure difference U on both sides of the insulation joint diff =U in -U out When the vehicle wheelset has not entered the next section, that is, the vehicle has not crossed the input end mechanical insulation node, the output side voltage U OUT is 0, at this time the voltage difference U diff Maximum, which is the basis for judging the voltage difference problem of the insulation section. diff When >60V, the insulation joint will be burned most seriously. diff <20V, there is basically no effect on the insulation joint. diff >20V, an alarm will be issued in the monitoring system, indicating that there may be a problem of poor traction return current. diff >40V, directly notify the on-site personnel to measure the reflux process near the insulation joint during the skylight to check for obstructions. diff When >60V, the warning further indicates that the insulation joint may be damaged, and the maintenance process may require replacement of the mechanical insulation joint.
