Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electrical engineering technology and relates to a method for diagnosing and evaluating transformer overheating faults based on rapid calculation of temperature field. Background Technology
[0002] Oil-immersed transformers are one of the core pieces of equipment in power systems, and ensuring their safe and stable operation is crucial for the normal operation of the power system. During operation, transformers generate energy losses, which are converted into heat. The main heat sources inside the transformer are the core and windings. The alternating magnetic field in the core generates hysteresis losses, and when the load current flows through the copper windings, Joule losses occur. The heat generated by these two energy losses is transferred to the surrounding environment and eventually dissipated into the air through the transformer tank surface. This heat transfer process creates a temperature field distribution inside the transformer. Under normal operation, the temperature rise of the transformer core and windings, and the temperature rise it causes to the surrounding insulating materials such as insulating paper and insulating oil, are generally within the design range. However, when a short circuit fault occurs between turns in the windings, or when the core overheats abnormally, the temperature of the overheated spot will far exceed the normal hot spot temperature, leading to excessively high insulation temperature rise in the vicinity. This accelerates the aging of the insulation material, causing deformation, cracks, and even insulation failure, severely shortening the insulation life. Therefore, it is necessary to detect this overheating fault in the transformer in a timely manner, find out the location of the fault point in the winding or core, infer the temperature of the overheating point, and then judge the severity of the overheating fault.
[0003] Currently, common methods for diagnosing transformer overheating faults include dissolved gas analysis in oil, infrared thermography, and fiber optic thermography. However, dissolved gas analysis in oil is difficult to pinpoint the exact location of the fault; infrared thermography can only measure the surface temperature of the transformer tank, and cannot accurately reflect the location and severity of internal thermal defects; while fiber optic thermography offers high accuracy and fast response, it is expensive, requires complex manufacturing processes for embedding into the transformer windings, necessitates close contact with the windings, and its negative impact on the winding's oil-paper insulation performance is unclear. Therefore, existing testing methods based on direct physical measurements are insufficient to meet the diagnostic needs of transformer overheating faults.
[0004] Temperature field analysis, using specific calculation methods, can identify the specific state of overheating points in transformers, providing an effective theoretical approach to achieving the aforementioned objectives. This primarily includes two methods: finite element method (FEM) calculation and thermal circuit method (TCM) calculation. However, due to the large spatial scale of transformers, FEM thermal field analysis suffers from large computational scale and slow calculation speed, making it difficult to meet the needs of rapid on-site diagnosis and handling of transformer faults. Thermal circuit method analysis of the temperature field can balance computational speed and accuracy. However, currently, the thermal circuit method can only calculate the internal temperature distribution of transformers under normal operating conditions and cannot be directly used for diagnosing overheating faults.
[0005] Currently, commonly used methods for diagnosing overheating faults in transformer core-winding systems, such as dissolved gas analysis in oil, infrared thermography, and fiber optic thermography, rely on direct physical testing. However, these methods have limitations in fault location, accuracy, and safety. Finite element analysis, on the other hand, suffers from slow computation speed. To address these issues, this invention employs a rapid calculation method for the internal temperature field of the transformer based on the thermal circuit method. Combined with measured temperature rise values at the top and bottom oil temperatures and other measurement points, this method enables the segmental location of overheating faults in the transformer winding-core system. Furthermore, it establishes a temperature identification model for overheating hot spots in the transformer core and windings. By solving this model, the severity of overheating faults in the transformer winding-core system can be quantitatively diagnosed and assessed. This approach offers advantages such as fault location, quantifiable overheating severity, and rapid computation. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method for diagnosing and assessing transformer overheating faults based on rapid temperature field calculation. This method utilizes a rapid calculation method of the internal temperature field of the transformer based on the thermal circuit method, combined with measured temperature rise values at the top and bottom oil temperatures and other temperature measurement points, to locate the section of overheating fault in the transformer winding-core system. Furthermore, it establishes a temperature identification model for overheating hot spots in the transformer core and windings. By solving this model, a quantitative diagnosis and assessment of the severity of transformer winding-core overheating faults can be achieved. This method has the advantages of fault location, quantifiable overheating degree, and fast calculation speed.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0008] A method for diagnosing and assessing transformer overheating faults based on rapid temperature field calculations, comprising the following steps:
[0009] S1. Take one iron core side column of the transformer, and the high voltage winding and low voltage winding surrounding the iron core side column as a whole research object. Divide the high voltage winding, low voltage winding and iron core side column of the transformer into n segments with the same spatial distribution. Each segment contains several turns of coil and small segments of each iron core column.
[0010] S2. At the same height corresponding to each of the above sections on the outer wall of the transformer tank, set temperature measurement points sequentially, denoted as S1…S2. n The temperature rise of each measured temperature point relative to the ambient temperature is denoted as the measured temperature rise vector Θ. Μ =[θ M 1,θ M 2,θ M 3…θ M n];
[0011] S3. Based on the installation of temperature measurement points in the transformer winding external oil passages, at least two measurement points should be included: bottom oil temperature and top oil temperature. Measure the temperature rise relative to the ambient temperature at the top oil temperature, bottom oil temperature, and other internal external oil passage temperature measurement points. Record this as the verification temperature rise vector Θ. C =[θ C top ,θ C bottom …];
[0012] S4. Based on the thermal circuit method, analyze and obtain the temperature at various locations inside the transformer under normal and fixed load conditions, and obtain the normal temperature rise calculation vector Θ of the transformer. Ν ;
[0013] S5. Based on the measured temperature rise vector Θ in S2 Μ And the calculated temperature rise vector Θ under normal operating conditions in step S44. Ν Construct the temperature rise vector Θ for transformer overheating faults. D =Θ Μ –Θ Ν =[θ D 1,θ D 2…θ D n ];
[0014] S6. Construct the transformer overheating fault temperature rise threshold vector Θ T ;
[0015] S7. Within the specific fault section identified above, further determine the severity of overheating, i.e., the specific temperature rise value at the fault point.
[0016] Furthermore, S4 includes the following steps:
[0017] S41. Establish a thermal circuit calculation model for the internal thermal field of the transformer; where Φ IRON,i The equivalent current source for heating the iron core is Φ, whose magnitude is the heating power value of the i-th segment of the iron core as defined in S1. L,i The equivalent current source for heating the low-voltage winding is the heating power value of the i-th segment of the low-voltage winding as defined in S1; Φ H,i The equivalent current source for heating the high-voltage winding is represented by its magnitude, which indicates the heating power value of the i-th segment of the high-voltage winding as defined in S1; each resistor R xx Represents the thermal resistance along the corresponding heat flow path; nodes correspond to three types of locations: θ iron,i θ represents the temperature rise of the i-th segment of the iron core; iron,bot Indicates the temperature rise at the bottom of the iron core; θ L,iθ represents the temperature rise of the i-th low-voltage winding; L-H,i θ represents the temperature rise in the oil gap between the high and low voltage windings in the i-th segment; H,i θ represents the temperature rise of the i-th high-voltage winding; oil,i θ represents the temperature rise of the i-th segment of the outer oil passage; oil,bot Indicates the bottom oil temperature; θ oil,top Top oil temperature; θ surf,i θ represents the temperature rise of the i-th segment of the outer shell; surf,bot This indicates a temperature rise at the bottom of the casing;
[0018] S42. Based on the specific nameplate parameters of the target transformer being analyzed, Φ IRON,i Let P0 / 3 / n be the value, where P0 represents the no-load loss nameplate value of the transformer; Φ L,i =I L 2 R L / n, I L R represents the rated current of the low-voltage winding. L Φ represents the DC resistance of the low-voltage winding; H,i =I H 2 R H / n, I H R represents the rated current of the high-voltage winding. H Represents the DC resistance of the high-voltage winding; each thermal resistance is determined based on a heat flow experiment.
[0019] S43. Treating the thermal circuit as an electrical circuit, after determining all current sources and resistors in the diagram according to S41-S42, use the nodal voltage method to write the nodal voltage equation Gθ=Φ, that is:
[0020]
[0021] The potentials of all nodes except the reference ground node are sequentially arranged in the θ vector, and each node is numbered according to this order; under this order, G... xx =1 / R xx The self-conductance of the corresponding node and the mutual conductance between nodes are represented by the given resistance, as specified in the nodal voltage method. Corresponding to the above order, the current sources associated with each node are sequentially arranged in the vector Φ. Solving the equations yields the potentials of all nodes in the circuit, i.e., θ = G. -1 Φ;
[0022] S44. From the above calculation results, extract the temperature rise values at n locations on the transformer tank wall corresponding to S2, and combine them into a calculated temperature rise vector Θ under normal transformer operation conditions. Ν =[θ N 1,θ N 2…θN n ].
[0023] Furthermore, S6 includes the following steps:
[0024] S61. In the m-th segment, m = 1…n, representing the three current sources Φ for core loss, low-voltage winding loss, and high-voltage winding loss, respectively. IRON,m Φ L,m Φ H,m Each voltage source is replaced individually to simulate three types of overheating faults: core overheating, low-voltage winding short-circuit overheating, and high-voltage winding short-circuit overheating occurring in the m-th segment alone. The voltage of the voltage source corresponds to the temperature rise of the overheating point when the overheating fault occurs. According to relevant standards, it is set to the temperature rise of the mildest overheating fault at 150℃.
[0025] S62. For the three cases of overheating faults with added core losses, low-voltage winding losses, and high-voltage winding losses, respectively, write the corrected node voltage equation G′θ′=Φ′ with fault. Assume that in the m-th segment selected in S61, a current source that is replaced in a certain instance is associated with node i:
[0026]
[0027] In the formula, U i The voltage source, which replaces the current source, has a value of 150;
[0028] The potentials θ′=G′ at all nodes in the circuit are calculated. -1 Φ′; Extract the calculated temperature rise θ of the adjacent outer wall node of the oil tank above the segment in the θ′ vector. surf,m+1 θ, and its temperature under normal operating conditions N m+1 The difference is taken as the minimum of these three cases, i.e., min(θ). surf,m+1 –θ N m+1 θ serves as the overheat fault temperature rise threshold for this winding section. T m ;
[0029] S63. For the next segment, i.e., m = m + 1, repeat S61-S62 to obtain θ. T m+1 This process continues until all n segments have been traversed; the overheating fault temperature rise thresholds calculated in each of the above iterations are then combined to form an overheating fault temperature rise threshold vector Θ. T =[θ T 1,θ T 2… θ T n ];
[0030] S64. Construct a transformer overheating fault location vector P = [p1, p2, ... p n The values of each element in this vector are determined according to the following rules: the temperature rise vector Θ at each temperature analysis point is compared sequentially. D and thermal defect threshold vector Θ T Size of the element at the corresponding position in the middle; when Θ D A certain element θ D i Less than Θ T Corresponding element θ T i When, then p i =0 indicates that no overheating fault has occurred below the segment corresponding to this element; otherwise, p i =1 indicates that an overheating fault has occurred below the section corresponding to the element; when an overheating fault occurs in a certain section, the value above the section is 1 and the value below is 0, thus locating the winding section where the transformer thermal defect fault is located.
[0031] Furthermore, S7 includes the following steps:
[0032] S71. For the overheating fault section determined in step S64 above, replace the current sources of core loss, low-voltage winding loss, and high-voltage winding loss in this section with three voltage sources. The voltage magnitudes of these three voltage sources are to be determined, denoted as Ux1, Ux2, and Ux3 respectively. Assume that the positions of these three voltage sources are associated with nodes i, j, and k respectively. In this case, write the corrected node voltage equation G"θ"=Φ" containing the fault, that is:
[0033]
[0034] Solving for θ, we get θ" = G". -1 Φ"; where each element in the vector θ" is represented as a linear combination expression of the variables to be solved, Ux1, Ux2, and Ux3;
[0035] S72. Based on the arrangement of temperature measurement points within the target transformer's external oil passage determined in S3, and according to the verification temperature rise vector Θ in S3... C From the θ" vector obtained in S71, extract the corresponding Θ C The temperature rise expression at each location should include at least two temperature measurement points θ: the bottom oil temperature and the top oil temperature. oil,bot、 θ oil,top The vector Θ to be determined is formed. x =[θ oil,bot, θ oil,top… Construct the following optimization model:
[0036] J = min||Θ x -Θ C ||2 (4)
[0037] S73. Using any optimization algorithm, solve the above model to obtain the optimal solutions for Ux1, Ux2, and Ux3, which are the specific fault temperature rise values of the core, low-voltage winding, and high-voltage winding within this fault section, thus completing the quantitative diagnosis of the severity of the transformer overheating fault.
[0038] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: by using a rapid calculation method for the internal temperature field of a transformer based on the thermal circuit method, and combining the measured temperature rise values of the top oil temperature, bottom oil temperature, and other temperature measurement points, the section location of overheating faults in the transformer winding-core system can be realized.
