Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of main equipment protection and monitoring in power plants, and more specifically to the phase loss detection and device for a multi-start-up standby transformer system in a power plant. Background Art

[0002] In the power system, the unbalanced operation of the circuit breaker caused by faults in the circuit breaker operating mechanism and its electrical control circuit, etc., leading to overheating or burning accidents of the generator, not only causes a major loss to the power plant, but also poses a great threat to the safe operation of the power system. Since the phase loss fault occurred at the Byron Nuclear Power Plant in Illinois, USA in 2012, it has attracted the high attention of the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) and the World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO). However, similar incidents still occur from time to time in global nuclear power units to this day.

[0003] According to incomplete statistics, domestic nuclear power start-up standby transformers basically adopt the wiring methods of Ynd or Yny-d, and are in an unloaded state for a long time, with a very small load current (mainly the no-load excitation current, generally about 0.06% of the rated current). Once a phase loss fault occurs on the high-voltage side of the start-up standby transformer, the conventional electromagnetic CT basically cannot respond. Coupled with the influence of the delta winding, there is no obvious change in the 220 kV bus voltage of the start-up standby transformer system, that is, it cannot be reflected by conventional electrical quantities under no-load conditions. At this time, once an important load is connected, the three-phase voltage and current will become unbalanced, thus causing multiple protections with negative sequence components as the starting elements to malfunction, and ultimately resulting in a series of fault events in the nuclear power plant.

[0004] According to patent retrieval, a patent of Xuji Group Co., Ltd., "CN108649532B An injection type transformer line phase loss protection method and device", obtains the zero-sequence impedance by injecting current into the transformer neutral point to reflect the phase loss fault of the transformer; a patent of Nanjing Nanrui Relay & Protection Electric Co., Ltd., "CN108169615B A phase loss detection method for start-up standby transformers based on optical CT", uses optical CT to detect the three-phase current on the primary side of the nuclear power plant standby transformer to reflect the phase loss fault of the transformer. The above methods are only applicable to the phase loss faults near the high-voltage side of a single transformer. Therefore, there is no detection method applicable to discriminating different phase loss points in a multi-start-up standby transformer system. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to propose a phase loss detection method and device applicable to a multi-start-up standby transformer system, which can sensitively and accurately identify the phase loss faults on the high-voltage side and the line of the start-up standby transformer under no-load or light-load conditions, and is also applicable to both the transformer neutral point grounded and ungrounded systems, improving the safety and reliability of the operation of the start-up standby transformer system.

[0043] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] Since the unbalanced operation of the transformer will cause overheating or burning of the equipment, bringing losses and safety threats to the power system, and the existing phase loss detection technologies are all used for the phase loss faults at the proximal end of the high-voltage side of a single transformer, lacking research on the phase loss detection of a multi-start standby transformer system. In view of this, the embodiments of the present application propose a phase loss detection method applicable to a multi-start standby transformer system, as Figure 1 shown, including the following steps:

[0045] S101. Measure the three-phase currents on the incoming line, measure the zero-sequence voltages at the neutral points of each start standby transformer, and collect the positions of the neutral point earthing switches of each start standby transformer.

[0046] Collect the three-phase currents and the zero-sequence voltages at the neutral points through the current transformers installed on the incoming line and the voltage transformers at the neutral points of each start standby transformer. The three-phase currents on the line are respectively denoted as and The zero-sequence voltages at the neutral points of each start standby transformer are respectively denoted as N is the number of start standby transformers, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2.

[0047] Among them, the current transformers used to measure the three-phase current on the incoming line and the voltage transformers used for the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of each start-up standby transformer have sufficient accuracy when all start-up standby transformers are in no-load and light-load conditions.

[0048] In some embodiments, the position of the neutral point earthing switch of each start-up standby transformer is collected by introducing the off-position contact of the neutral point earthing switch of each start-up standby transformer, which are respectively S 1 、S 2 、…、S N , and the off-position of the neutral point earthing switch is 1, otherwise it is 0.

[0049] S102. Calculate the positive-sequence current and zero-sequence current of the incoming line by using the symmetrical component method based on the three-phase current on the incoming line.

[0050] According to the three-phase current on the incoming line and calculate the positive-sequence and zero-sequence components of the current by using the symmetrical component method to obtain the positive-sequence current of the incoming line and the zero-sequence current

[0051]

[0052] In the formula:

[0053] S103. Determine whether a single-phase open circuit fault occurs and locate the fault interval according to the zero-sequence current of the incoming line, the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of each start-up standby transformer, and the position of the neutral point earthing switch.

[0054] Specifically, determine whether a single-phase open circuit fault occurs and locate the fault interval by judging whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of the start-up standby transformer with the neutral point earthing switch in the off position exceeds the preset zero-sequence voltage threshold of the neutral point, and by judging whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence current at the incoming line position exceeds the preset first zero-sequence current threshold and whether the amplitude of the line zero-sequence current is greater than the preset second zero-sequence current threshold.

[0055] In some embodiments, the determining whether a single-phase open circuit fault occurs and locating the fault interval according to the zero-sequence current of the incoming line, the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of each start-up standby transformer, and the position of the neutral point earthing switch specifically includes:

[0056] Judge whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of the start-up standby transformer with the neutral point earthing switch in the off position is greater than the preset zero-sequence voltage threshold of the neutral point. If so, it is determined that a single-phase open circuit fault has occurred in the start-up standby transformer with the neutral point earthing switch in the off position; otherwise, it is determined that no single-phase open circuit fault has occurred in the start-up standby transformer with the neutral point earthing switch in the off position;

[0057] If there is no open-phase fault in any of the start-up standby transformers with neutral grounding switches in the off position, further determine whether the amplitude of the incoming line zero-sequence current is greater than a preset first zero-sequence current threshold. If not, it is determined that there is no open-phase fault. If so, further determine whether the amplitude of the incoming line zero-sequence current is greater than a preset second zero-sequence current threshold. If so, it is determined that an open-phase fault has occurred in the incoming line. If not, it is determined that an open-phase fault has occurred on the high-voltage side of the start-up standby transformer with the neutral grounding switch in the on position; the second zero-sequence current threshold is greater than the first zero-sequence current threshold.

[0058] In some embodiments, the neutral zero-sequence voltage threshold is k 1 ×U n , where U n is the rated value of the phase voltage on the high-voltage side of the start-up standby transformer, and k 1 is a reliability coefficient, taking a value of 0.2 to 0.4, preferably 0.2.

[0059] In some embodiments, the first zero-sequence current threshold is the larger of a fixed threshold and a floating threshold. The fixed threshold needs to be greater than the amplitude of the zero-sequence unbalance current measured on site. The floating threshold is where is the amplitude of the positive-sequence current on the incoming line side, and k 2 is a reliability coefficient, taking a value of 0.6 to 0.8, preferably 0.8.

[0060] In some embodiments, the second zero-sequence current threshold is the larger of a fixed threshold and a floating threshold. The fixed threshold needs to be greater than the amplitude of the zero-sequence unbalance current measured on site. The floating threshold is where is the amplitude of the positive-sequence current on the incoming line side, and k 3 is a reliability coefficient, taking a value of 0.5 to 0.9, preferably 0.6.

[0061] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 shown in the embodiment, based on the foregoing embodiment, the open-phase detection method applicable to a multi-start-up standby transformer system further includes: Step S104, after determining that an open-phase fault has occurred, determine the phase of the open-phase fault according to the three-phase current of the incoming line.

[0062] Specifically, compare the amplitudes of the three-phase currents. The phase with the smallest current amplitude is the fault phase.

[0063] In some embodiments, the amplitudes of the three-phase currents of the incoming line can be obtained as and The phase with the smallest current amplitude among the three phases is the fault phase, that is:

[0064] If is satisfied, the fault phase is phase A;

[0065] If the following conditions are met then the faulty phase is Phase B;

[0066] If the following conditions are met then the faulty phase is Phase C.

[0067] In some embodiments, as shown in the embodiments of Figure 3 and Figure 4 Based on the above two embodiments, the phase loss detection method applicable to the multi-start standby transformer system may further include step S105: when it is determined that a phase loss fault has occurred, an alarm signal is sent after a set delay or an action is taken to trip. The value range of the set delay is 0.1 s to 30.0 s, and preferably 20 s is taken.

[0068] Next, in combination with Figure 5 The typical application wiring diagram of the 220 kV start-up standby transformer system of a certain nuclear power plant shown below is used to specifically introduce a phase loss detection method applicable to the multi-start standby transformer system of the present application. The electrical main wiring diagram, the schematic diagram of the phase loss fault detection of the start-up standby transformer, and the fault points are as shown in the appendix Figure 2 shown. The start-up standby transformer is a three-phase double-winding transformer, with Yn / D-11 connection, and there are 2 units in total. The phase loss fault detection is realized by measuring the three-phase current on the incoming line and the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of each transformer. As Figure 6 shown, the specific steps for implementing the phase loss detection applicable to the multi-start standby transformer system are as follows:

[0069] S201. Measure the three-phase current on the incoming line through a high-precision optical current transformer Measure the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral points of the two start-up standby transformers through electromagnetic voltage transformers Collect the positions of the neutral point earthing switches of the two start-up standby transformers. If the neutral point earthing switch of the No. 1 start-up standby transformer is in the closed position, then S 1 = 0; if the neutral point earthing switch of the No. 2 start-up standby transformer is in the open position, then S 2 = 1.

[0070] S202. According to the three-phase current on the incoming line and Use the symmetrical component method to calculate the positive-sequence and zero-sequence components of the current, and obtain the incoming line positive-sequence current and the incoming line zero-sequence current

[0071] S203. Identification of the faulty phase for phase loss:

[0072] Step S203.1: In this embodiment, the neutral earthing switch of the No. 2 starting standby transformer is in the off position. Therefore, it is determined whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of the No. 2 starting standby transformer exceeds the preset zero-sequence voltage threshold of the neutral point. If so, it is determined that a single-phase open fault has occurred in the No. 2 starting standby transformer, and step S204 is entered; otherwise, it is determined that no single-phase open fault has occurred, and step S203.2 is entered.

[0073] The method for realizing single-phase open discrimination based on the amplitude of the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point in this embodiment is as follows:

[0074]

[0075] In this embodiment, take k 1 = 0.2, U n = 127 kV, then when the amplitude of the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of the Nth starting standby transformer is greater than or equal to 25.4 kV, it is determined that a single-phase open fault has occurred in this transformer.

[0076] S203.2: Determine whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence current at the incoming line position exceeds the preset first threshold of the zero-sequence current. If so, enter step S203.3; otherwise, it is determined that no single-phase open fault has occurred, and the process ends.

[0077] The method for discriminating whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence current at the incoming line position exceeds the preset first threshold of the zero-sequence current in this embodiment is as follows:

[0078]

[0079] In this embodiment, take k 2 = 0.8, N = 2, I 0_set = 0.2 A.

[0080] S203.3: Determine whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence current at the incoming line position exceeds the preset second threshold of the zero-sequence current. If so, it is determined that a single-phase open fault has occurred in the incoming line. If not, it is determined that a single-phase open fault has occurred in the high-voltage side of the starting standby transformer with the neutral earthing switch in the on position, and step S204 is entered.

[0081] The method for discriminating whether the amplitude of the zero-sequence current at the incoming line position exceeds the preset second threshold of the zero-sequence current in this embodiment is as follows:

[0082]

[0083] In this embodiment, take k 3 = 0.6, I 0_set = 0.2 A.

[0084] S204: Determine the phase of the single-phase open fault according to the magnitudes of the three-phase current amplitudes of the incoming line.

[0085] In this embodiment, the amplitudes of the incoming three-phase currents are respectively and The phase with the minimum current amplitude among the three phases is the faulty phase, that is:

[0086] If is satisfied, the faulty phase is phase A;

[0087] If is satisfied, the faulty phase is phase B;

[0088] If is satisfied, the faulty phase is phase C.

[0089] S205. When it is determined that a single-phase open fault has occurred, an alarm signal is sent after a set delay or an operation is performed to trip. The value range of the set delay is 0.1 s to 30.0 s, and preferably 20 s is taken.

[0090] The following is an application of this discrimination method in combination with different fault conditions:

[0091] Case 1: When all starting standby transformers are in no-load conditions, as Figure 2 shown at the position of the single-phase open point 1, a single-phase open fault of phase B occurs. The three-phase currents on the incoming line, the calculated sequence components, and the zero-sequence voltages of the neutral points of the two starting standby transformers are as follows:

[0092] 0.197∠52.97°, 0.113∠132.51°

[0093] 3.675∠-74.58°, 1.391∠146.23°, 3.670∠7.23°

[0094] 2.777∠-93.68°, 1.387∠-33.68°

[0095] In formula (2), k 1 = 0.2, U n = 127 kV, the amplitude of the zero-sequence voltage of the neutral point of the No. 2 starting standby transformer is 0.113 kV, which is much smaller than the zero-sequence voltage threshold of 25.4 kV. It is determined that the No. 2 starting standby transformer with the neutral grounding switch in the off position has not had a single-phase open fault.

[0096] Furthermore, in formula (3), k 2 = 0.8, N = 2, I 0_set = 0.2 A, and the positive-sequence current amplitude is 2.777 A. Then the first threshold of the zero-sequence current is 1.111 A, and the zero-sequence current amplitude is 1.387 A. Formula (3) is satisfied.

[0097] Furthermore, in formula (4), k3 = 0.6, I 0_set = 0.2 A, the positive-sequence current amplitude is 2.777 A, then the second threshold of the zero-sequence current is 1.666 A, while the zero-sequence current amplitude is 1.387 A, and Equation (4) is not satisfied.

[0098] Therefore, it is judged that the No. 1 start-up standby transformer with the neutral grounding switch in the closed position has a phase-breaking fault. Further comparing the amplitudes of the three-phase currents of the incoming line, it is found that the amplitude of the B-phase current is the smallest, so the faulty phase is the B-phase.

[0099] Case 2: When all start-up standby transformers are in no-load operation, as Figure 2 shown at the phase-breaking point 2, an A-phase breaking fault occurs. The three-phase currents on the incoming line, their calculated sequence components, and the zero-sequence voltages of the neutral points of the two start-up standby transformers are as follows:

[0100] 0, 56.56∠116.84°

[0101] 1.538∠-90.44°, 2.497∠160.06°, 2.458∠16.33°

[0102] 2.129∠-91.41°, 0

[0103] Let k in Equation (2) 1 = 0.2, U n = 127 kV, the zero-sequence voltage amplitude of the neutral point of the No. 2 start-up standby transformer is 56.56 kV, which is much greater than the zero-sequence voltage threshold of 25.4 kV. Then it is judged that the No. 2 start-up standby transformer has a phase-breaking fault. Further comparing the amplitudes of the three-phase currents of the incoming line, it is found that the amplitude of the A-phase current is the smallest, so the faulty phase is the A-phase.

[0104] Case 3: When all start-up standby transformers are in no-load operation, as Figure 2 shown at the phase-breaking point 3, a C-phase breaking fault occurs. The three-phase currents on the incoming line, their calculated sequence components, and the zero-sequence voltages of the neutral points of the two start-up standby transformers are as follows:

[0105] 0.393∠-67.03°, 0.393∠-67.03°

[0106] 4.797∠-123.59°, 4.800∠176.14°, 0

[0107] 2.774∠-93.70°, 2.767∠-153.73°

[0108] In formula (2), k 1 = 0.2, U n = 127 kV. The zero-sequence voltage amplitude of the neutral point of the No. 2 startup standby transformer is 0.393 kV, which is much less than the zero-sequence voltage threshold of 25.4 kV at the neutral point. It is determined that the No. 2 startup standby transformer with the neutral grounding switch in the off position has no phase-breaking fault.

[0109] Furthermore, in formula (3), k 2 = 0.8, N = 2, I 0_set = 0.2 A. The positive-sequence current amplitude is 2.774 A. Then the first threshold of the zero-sequence current is 1.110 A, and the zero-sequence current amplitude is 2.767 A. Formula (3) is satisfied.

[0110] Furthermore, in formula (4), k 3 = 0.6, I 0_set = 0.2 A. The positive-sequence current amplitude is 2.774 A. Then the second threshold of the zero-sequence current is 1.664 A, and the zero-sequence current amplitude is 2.767 A. Formula (4) is satisfied.

[0111] Therefore, it is determined that a phase-breaking fault has occurred in the incoming line. Further comparing the amplitudes of the three-phase currents of the incoming line, it is found that the amplitude of the C-phase current is the smallest. Then the fault phase is the C-phase.

[0112] By using the above method, by real-time monitoring the three-phase currents on the incoming line and the zero-sequence voltages of the neutral points of each startup standby transformer, when the above phase-breaking criterion is met, it is determined as a phase-breaking fault, and an alarm signal is sent after a set delay to remind the operator to handle it in time.

[0113] This method can sensitively and accurately identify the phase-breaking faults on the high-voltage side of the startup standby transformer and the line under no-load or light-load conditions, and is applicable to both the transformer neutral grounding and non-grounding systems, improving the safety and reliability of the operation of the startup standby transformer system.

[0116] The sequence current calculation unit 302 is used to calculate the positive-sequence current and the zero-sequence current of the incoming line based on the three-phase currents on the incoming line by using the symmetrical component method.

[0117] A fault determination unit 303 is configured to determine whether a phase break fault occurs and locate the fault interval based on the incoming line zero - sequence current, the zero - sequence voltage of the neutral point of each start - up standby transformer, and the position of the neutral - point earthing switch.

[0118] In some embodiments, as Figure 8 shown, a phase break detection device 300 applicable to a multi - start - up standby transformer system further includes a phase discrimination unit 304, configured to, in response to determining that a phase break fault has occurred, determine the phase of the phase break fault according to the three - phase currents on the incoming line.
