Description

[0002] As a multi-layer solid composite dielectric insulation structure accessory for realizing the electrical connection of cables, a cable joint is a weak link in the cable system. Its structure is complex and the required installation accuracy is high. As a result, cable failures caused thereby account for about 64% or more of the total failure ratio. The epoxy encapsulation structure of the cable joint is an important insulation and mechanical connection structure in the intermediate joint of the cable (especially the ±500 kV cable), and its reliability directly affects the safe and stable operation of the intermediate joint and even the entire cable power transmission system.

[0003] The joint cracking problem caused by the stress concentration effect is a typical failure type of cable joints. With the increase in extremely low temperature weather in recent years, epoxy encapsulation structure cracking accidents caused by material performance degradation and stress concentration occur frequently. The mechanical reliability margin of existing cable joints is small and it is difficult to meet the reliability requirements under low temperature weather. By increasing the toughness of the epoxy encapsulation structure in the cable joint, the deformation ability of the cable joint can be improved to meet the reliability requirements under low temperature weather, but the rigidity of the cable joint decreases and the cable performance deteriorates. In the traditional cable production process, product experiments such as thermal shock experiments are generally used for testing. The testing process is cumbersome and the testing cost is high.

Embodiment

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are all exemplary and are intended to provide further explanations for the present application.

[0022] Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which this application belongs. It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0023] Combined with Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment specifically discloses a method for improving the stress of the cable joint packaging structure at low temperature, which includes the following steps: Obtain the design dimensions of the cable joint and establish the geometric model of the cable joint; Set the material property parameters of different structural layers in the geometric model according to the materials of different structural layers in the cable joint; Add physical fields to different structural layers of the geometric model respectively, set the boundary conditions of the physical fields in combination with the operating conditions, and couple multiple physical fields; Mesh the geometric model and perform finite element simulation calculations; Analyze the finite element simulation results of the geometric model to determine the stress concentration amplitude and distribution area of the geometric model; Judge the stress weak position based on the stress concentration amplitude and distribution area of the geometric model; Replace the material property parameters at the stress weak position with the material property parameters after toughening treatment, and perform finite element simulation calculations again; Evaluate the finite element simulation results of the geometric model after toughening treatment and select the best material property parameters; Guide the toughening treatment of the cable joint according to the best material property parameters.

[0024] Specifically, in order to accurately simulate the model of the cable joint, based on the internal structure and design characteristics of the actual cable joint, according to the design dimensions of the cable joint, the geometric model of the cable joint is accurately drawn by using COMSOL Multiphysics software. The geometric model is highly consistent with the cable physical object, thus ensuring the accuracy of the subsequent simulation results. It should be noted that in this embodiment, based on the structural characteristics of the cable joint, the geometric model adopts a two-dimensional axisymmetric model. By simplifying the three-dimensional part into a two-dimensional geometric shape, the calculation is more concise than constructing a complete three-dimensional model. At the same time, the applied boundary conditions and meshing used are simpler. Since the two-dimensional axisymmetric model generally remains unchanged in terms of geometry, load, and constraint in the circumferential direction of the object, by controlling the integral control equation during the entire rotation process of the object, the stress state and strain state of the two-dimensional cross-section can be restored to the stress state and strain state of the complete three-dimensional model.

[0025] Such as Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the geometric model of the cable joint includes an outer protective shell 1, a shielding layer 2, a crimping body 3, a stress cone 4, an XLPE layer 5, a conductor 6, an insulation shielding layer 7, a wedge-shaped cylinder 8, and an epoxy insulation layer 9. The outer protective shell 1 is a sturdy and durable outer shell that mainly serves to protect the internal structure of the cable joint. Its material is usually metal or high-strength plastic, capable of resisting the influence of various environmental factors. The shielding layer 2 is a mesh structure made of metal materials, which can effectively prevent electromagnetic interference and the influence of electric fields on the cable joint. The crimping body 3 is the connection part between the cable joint and the cable, and the cable is firmly connected to the joint through a crimping method. The stress cone 4 is a structure similar to a cone in shape, which can effectively disperse the stress at the cable joint to prevent damage caused by stress concentration. The XLPE layer 5 is an insulating material with excellent electrical properties, which can effectively protect other parts of the cable from the influence of electric fields and currents. The conductor 6 is the main current-carrying part of the cable, usually composed of multiple strands of metal wires, capable of effectively transmitting current. The insulation shielding layer 7 is a protective layer that protects the conductor from the external environment, usually made of plastic or rubber. The wedge-shaped cylinder 8 is a component located between the outer protective shell and the crimping body, which can adapt to cables of different diameters through its own elasticity to ensure a tight connection of the joint. The epoxy insulation layer 9 is an insulating material with excellent electrical properties and weather resistance, which can provide additional protection for the cable. Through the coordinated work of each of the above components, while ensuring the excellent electrical properties of the cable joint, this geometric model also provides excellent mechanical protection and environmental adaptability.

[0026] Secondly, when setting the material property parameters for different structural layers in the geometric model, the material property parameters include, but are not limited to, material density, thermal conductivity, thermal expansion coefficient, Young's modulus, and Poisson's ratio, etc., in order to accurately simulate the physical properties and mechanical properties of the material. The accuracy and reliability of these parameters are crucial for simulating the physical properties and mechanical properties of the material. Therefore, when conducting material simulation, reliable experimental data or theoretical models need to be used to obtain these parameters to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the simulation results. The specific experimental process or theoretical calculation process adopts existing technologies and will not be elaborated in detail again. At the same time, according to the cable application scenario, it may be necessary to select the participating material property parameters according to the actual situation to ensure that the model can accurately reflect the actual working conditions.

[0027] Further, when adding physical fields to different structural layers of the geometric model and setting the boundary conditions of the physical fields, the boundary conditions of the physical fields need to be set according to different operating conditions. Among them, the physical fields added to the geometric model of the ±500 kV cable joint in the embodiments of the present invention at least include: solid mechanics physical field, solid heat transfer physical field, and thermal-mechanical coupling physical field. And the operating conditions include the operating state before the cable joint is energized and the operating state after the cable joint is energized.

[0028] The geometric model of the embodiments of the present invention respectively sets the boundary conditions of the solid mechanics physical field and the boundary conditions of the solid heat transfer physical field according to the actual operating conditions.

[0029] The boundary conditions of the solid mechanics physical field include adding fixed constraint conditions to the geometric model according to the actual installation state of the cable joint. For example, for a ±500 kV cable joint, specific tensile forces need to be applied to the cables at both ends of the cable joint respectively; a certain pressing force needs to be applied inside the cable joint, etc.

[0030] The boundary conditions of the solid heat transfer physical field include setting the boundary temperature of the geometric model and setting the temperature of the conductor in the geometric model. For example, for a ±500 kV cable joint, when simulating that the cable joint is in a low-temperature environment (-20 °C), the boundary temperature of the geometric model (this boundary can be understood as the outer surface of the cable joint) needs to be set to -20 °C; when simulating that the cable joint is in the non-energized operating state, the boundary temperature of the geometric model is consistent with the ambient temperature, that is, the boundary temperature of the geometric model is -20 °C, and the cable joint is mainly affected by the external ambient temperature; when simulating that the cable joint is in the energized operating state, the boundary temperature of the geometric model is consistent with the ambient temperature, and the temperature of the conductor in the geometric model is the energized operating temperature, that is, the actual temperature after the conductor in the cable joint is energized. Therefore, the boundary temperature of the geometric model is -20 °C, and the internal conductor temperature is 50 °C, which is mainly affected by the external ambient temperature and the internal conductor heat source together. Before and after the cable joint of this embodiment is energized and operates, due to the difference in the current passing through the cable joint internally, its internal heat source is different, so the temperature distribution is different, and the thermal stress inside the cable joint is different. Through the above process, the operating states of the ±500 kV cable joint before and after being energized in a -20 °C low-temperature environment can be simulated, and then it is convenient to subsequently simulate the stress concentration amplitude and distribution area in the epoxy encapsulation structure of the ±500 kV cable joint in extremely cold weather.

[0031] In addition, after adding physical fields, it is necessary to couple multiple physical fields. For example, in the embodiment of the present invention, the solid mechanics physical field and the solid heat transfer physical field act on the cable joint together, and there are phenomena of mutual interaction and mutual influence between them. In the solid mechanics physical field, when an object is subjected to an external force, its shape and size will change, and at the same time, temperature changes and heat transfer will also occur. This thermal-mechanical interaction will lead to changes in the elastic and plastic behavior of the material, as well as the influence on thermal stability and fatigue life; in the solid heat transfer physical field, when heat transfer is hindered, for example, in high-temperature, low-temperature or vacuum environments, there will be a strong interaction between the thermal physics field and the mechanics physical field. This interaction will lead to mechanical behaviors such as material deformation and stress concentration, and at the same time, it will also change thermal parameters such as the thermal conductivity coefficient and the thermal expansion coefficient. In this embodiment, in order to more realistically simulate the stress state of the cable joint before and after energization in a low-temperature environment, a thermal-mechanical coupled physical field is adopted, and the coupling conditions include setting the material thermal strain parameter in the solid mechanics field, using the temperature difference to obtain the variation law of the thermal expansion coefficient, and reflecting the deformation state of the material affected by temperature.

[0032] After that, mesh division is performed on the geometric model, and finite element simulation calculations are respectively carried out on the cable joint before and after stable operation; and the finite element simulation results of the geometric model are analyzed to determine the stress concentration amplitude and distribution area of the geometric model, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown; it should be noted that in the process of mesh division of the geometric model in the embodiment of the present invention, the mesh division accuracy can be adjusted according to the complexity of the cable model, taking into account both the calculation speed and the calculation accuracy. Finally, based on the stress concentration amplitude and distribution area of the geometric model, the stress weak position is determined, and the material property parameters at the stress weak position are replaced with the material property parameters after typical toughening, and finite element simulation calculation is carried out again, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown. Through geometric model simulation, the influence of different toughening materials on the cable stress under low-temperature environment can be studied. Usually, toughening is achieved by adding inorganic fillers or improving the process flow, etc., which changes the Young's modulus and tensile strength of the epoxy resin in the encapsulation structure. In this embodiment, the temperature field condition remains unchanged after toughening, and by changing the Young's modulus and tensile strength required in the mechanical simulation, the stress improvement and reliability enhancement of the cable joint encapsulation structure can be obtained. During the simulation process, for the weak stress parts, by replacing a variety of different toughening materials and carefully adjusting the material property parameters in the geometric model, performance evaluation and comparison can be carried out. Since the main changes in the cable joint before and after toughening are the tensile elastic modulus and tensile strength of the material, when replacing the material property parameters, the Young's modulus and tensile strength can be mainly replaced. By evaluating the finite element simulation results of the geometric model after toughening treatment, the optimal material property parameters are selected to pick out specific toughening materials, thereby effectively improving the durability and stability of the cable. Specifically, when evaluating the finite element simulation results of the geometric model after toughening treatment, the change in the first principal stress of the epoxy insulation part in the cable joint before and after power-on operation and under the condition of material toughening can be compared, and it can be verified based on its tensile strength, so as to complete the mechanical reliability evaluation of the cable joint encapsulation structure. Generally, it is better that the internal stress of the cable joint is improved both before and after power-on during evaluation, and finally the toughening treatment method with the largest improvement amplitude is selected.

[0033] Finally, the cable joint is guided to carry out toughening treatment according to the optimal material property parameters. Based on the excellent performance toughening material properties selected from the simulation results, corresponding production plans can be formulated, and then the selection and distribution of materials during the actual cable joint production can be guided to ensure that the produced cable has the best performance and quality. At the same time, the above method changes the way of verifying through multiple experimental comparisons in the traditional cable joint design process, which can reduce production costs and risks and provide strong support for actual production.

[0034] Furthermore, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a simulation system for improving the stress of a cable joint encapsulation structure, which includes: A geometric model establishment module, which is used to establish the geometric model of the cable joint according to the design dimensions of the cable joint; A material parameter setting module, which is used to set the material property parameters of different structural layers of the geometric model according to the materials used in different structural layers of the cable joint; A physical field establishment module, which is used to add corresponding physical fields to the geometric model, and set the boundary conditions and multi-physical field coupling conditions of each physical field according to the actual operating conditions; A simulation processing module, which is used to perform mesh division on the geometric model, and combine the boundary conditions, the multi-physical-field coupling conditions, and the material property parameters to perform finite element simulation calculations on the geometric model, so as to obtain the stress concentration amplitude and distribution area of the geometric model; A result analysis module, which is used to analyze the stress concentration amplitude and distribution area of each layer in the geometric model, and evaluate the stress weak area of the geometric model; A toughening treatment module, which is used to replace the material property parameters of the stress weak area of the geometric model, and re-perform the simulation calculation of the simulation calculation module.

[0035] Based on the above simulation system, the embodiment of the present invention can simulate the ±500 kV cable joint before and after energized steady-state operation in extremely cold weather to generate a stress distribution nephogram of the epoxy encapsulation structure inside the cable joint. Through the stress distribution nephogram, the reliability weak area of the epoxy encapsulation structure in the ±500 kV cable joint in extremely cold weather can be identified. At the same time, based on the identified reliability weak area of the epoxy encapsulation structure in the ±500 kV cable joint, the material used at the corresponding position inside the cable joint is toughened, and the simulation system is used for simulation. Through evaluation and comparative analysis, the best toughening method is obtained, thereby improving the stress concentration problem of the epoxy encapsulation structure in the cable joint.

When the processor executes the program, the steps of the simulation method for improving the stress of the cable joint encapsulation structure as described above are implemented.
