Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of generator shaft monitoring, and particularly to a method and system for multi-parameter monitoring of the insulation of a hydro-generator shaft. Background Art

[0002] To ensure the safe operation of large hydro-generator units, parameters such as bearing insulation impedance and oil film thickness are key on-line monitoring parameters. This paper proposes a detection method and system that can achieve on-line monitoring of multiple shaft insulation parameters, including parameters such as resistance, capacitance, oil film thickness, shaft voltage, and dielectric constant.

[0003] In previous bearing insulation monitoring, generally an excitation source was connected from the insulation interface or insulation detection tap, and its equivalent impedance was a parallel impedance, and the measured value was the DC parallel resistance value, which could not truly reflect the actual working series impedance. For a single-layer insulation pad bearing structure, due to the dynamic variability of the oil film impedance, it is more difficult to reflect the true insulation state. Summary of the Invention

Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0072] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for multi-parameter monitoring of the shaft insulation of a hydro-generator. By connecting a common excitation high-frequency current source from the grounding brush and introducing the monitoring of the high-frequency and low-frequency components of the shaft voltage, on-line monitoring of multi-parameters of the bearing insulation can be realized, including the bearing oil film impedance, capacitance, resistance, and insulation impedance, capacitance, resistance, as well as the capacitance ratio and shaft voltage. As a supplement, it is also feasible to introduce a high-frequency excitation source separately from the bearing bush.

[0073] Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the flow of a method for multi-parameter monitoring of the shaft insulation of a hydro-generator provided by the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0074] Step 101: Adopt the co-excitation ratio method. Introduce a high-frequency excitation current source through a grounding brush, load a high-frequency voltage on the basis of the shaft voltage, detect the oil film voltage and the insulating pad voltage respectively, calculate the voltage amplitude ratio, and analyze the oil film capacitance and the insulation capacitance based on the high-frequency signal.

[0075] Step 102: Adopt the co-excitation polling method. Sequentially switch the high-frequency excitation current path through a poller, enable the high-frequency current to flow through different impedance branches, separate the high-frequency and low-frequency voltage signals through a frequency-selective filter, and analyze the oil film impedance and the insulation impedance.

[0076] Step 103: Adopt the separate excitation method. Independently introduce a high-frequency excitation source from the bearing bush, combine with a frequency-selective filter or an impedance converter to achieve independent measurement of the oil film impedance and the insulation impedance, and calculate the oil film thickness and the insulation parameters.

[0077] In the embodiments of the present application, the physical models for detecting the oil film impedance of each bearing bush on the dynamic and static sides are as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown. The online monitoring method of the present application relies on the series relationship between the bearing oil film and the insulating pad capacitance. During the monitoring process, the grounding brush lead wire bypasses the ferrite to form a high-frequency inductor L1. The inductance value is 10 - 100 uH, and the ferrite material has the characteristic of extremely low impedance at low frequencies, thus ensuring that its static electricity discharge performance is not affected. A high-frequency excitation current source is loaded on the grounding brush lead wire to form a high-frequency shaft voltage VSH-H. Through this setting, the capacitive circuit of the bearing bush oil film and the insulating pad can be effectively driven, and then the online monitoring of multiple parameters can be realized.

[0078] It should be noted that the oil film capacitance of the tile surface and the insulating pad capacitance of each bearing bush insulation circuit are a series branch of the total parallel circuit. The oil film capacitance When the tile area s remains unchanged, c oil is proportional to the dielectric constant and inversely proportional to the oil film thickness d, while c isol mainly depends on the dielectric constant of the material of the insulating pad. The total current of the high-frequency excitation source is shunted into the currents of each bearing impedance branch. The magnitude of the branch current is uncertain, but in actual work, without an external excitation, the currents of each impedance component in a branch are equal.

[0079] In the co-excitation ratio method proposed in the embodiments of the present application, based on the series relationship between the oil film impedance of the tile surface and the insulation impedance of the insulating pad, by separately measuring the oil film voltage of the tile surface and the insulating pad voltage, the voltage amplitude ratio β can be calculated, and then the ratio of the oil film capacitance to the insulation capacitance can be obtained.

[0080] In this method, the high-frequency excitation current source is loaded through the grounded brush lead and forms a high-frequency micro-inductance through the ferrite coil, so that the high-frequency excitation voltage is superimposed on the shaft voltage to ensure that the high-frequency signal can be effectively separated from the low-frequency shaft voltage signal. The specific steps are as follows:

[0081] First, load the high-frequency excitation source through the grounded brush lead to make the ferrite coil form a high-frequency micro-inductance in the range of 10 to 100 μH. This inductance separates the high-frequency signal from the low-frequency shaft voltage signal to ensure that the high-frequency signal does not interfere with the low-frequency signal. The total current I of the high-frequency excitation source REF is shunted to different impedance branches, and the oil film voltage V oil and the insulation voltage V isol are related as follows:

[0082]

[0083] In the formula, V oil is the oil film voltage, V isol is the insulation voltage, I ref is the high-frequency excitation current source, and Z oil and Z isol are the oil film impedance and the insulation impedance respectively.

[0084] Then, measure the oil film voltage on the bearing surface and the insulation pad voltage respectively. Among them, the oil film voltage on the bearing surface reflects the oil film impedance, and the insulation pad voltage reflects the insulation impedance. Thus, according to the measured voltage amplitude ratio β, the ratio of the oil film capacitance to the insulation capacitance can be obtained. The formula is:

[0085]

[0086] In the formula, c oil is the oil film capacitance, and c isol is the insulation capacitance. By calculating the voltage amplitude ratio β, the relationship between the oil film capacitance and the insulation capacitance can be further deduced.

[0087] Moreover, based on the high-frequency voltage amplitude VSH and the current IX, the oil film capacitance and the insulation capacitance can be calculated. First, calculate their respective capacitance values through the amplitude of the high-frequency current. The formula is as follows:

[0088] For the insulation capacitance c isol , its calculation formula is:

[0089]

[0090] Similarly, for the oil film capacitance c oil , its calculation formula is:

[0091]

[0092] Where ω H is the angular frequency of the high-frequency excitation source, and R is the reference impedance.

[0093] Through the co-excitation ratio method, a high-frequency voltage signal can be superimposed on the shaft voltage using a high-frequency excitation source, and by measuring the oil film voltage on the bearing surface and the voltage of the insulating backing plate, the ratio of the voltage amplitudes can be calculated to further deduce the ratio of the oil film capacitance to the insulation capacitance. This method can accurately monitor the states of the oil film and insulation through current shunting and effective separation of high-frequency signals, providing effective support for bearing health assessment and fault warning.

[0094] For the co-excitation polling method proposed in the embodiments of the present application, as Figure 2 shown, the current intercepting function of the poller is used to make the high-frequency current introduced from the grounding brush flow through different impedance branches alternately. The measured voltage VX contains components of high-frequency and low-frequency shaft voltages. By decomposing the measured voltage into high-frequency voltage VX H and low-frequency voltage VX L , the impedance current can be calculated, and the expression is:

[0095]

[0096] Where IX 1H and IX 2H are high-frequency currents, IX 1L and IX 2L are low-frequency currents, and VX 1H , VX 2H , VX 1L and VX 2L are the corresponding voltages.

[0097] For the double-layer insulation pad structure with an insulating tap on the moving side, if the insulating tap is led out using a shaft-top slip ring and a carbon brush, the insulation impedance c isol and the oil film impedance c oil cannot be separated. For the single-layer insulation pad on the static side, it is necessary to ensure that the oil film does not independently bear the low-frequency shaft voltage during monitoring. Therefore, frequency-selective filters (1) and (2) are specially added before the poller, and then through the impedance converter built into the poller, the oil film only bears a safe small-amplitude high-frequency voltage and does not bear the low-frequency shaft voltage. This method ensures the accurate monitoring of the oil film impedance and protects the oil film from the influence of low-frequency voltages.

[0098] For multi-bearing monitoring, the poller can work in a synchronous mode, loading high-frequency excitation currents into different impedance branches one by one, so that each impedance branch forms an independent electrical loop. The high-frequency and low-frequency signals are separated through the frequency-selective filter. The high-frequency voltage signal is used to calculate the oil film impedance, and the low-frequency voltage signal is used to calculate the insulation impedance.

[0099] On this basis, the oil film resistance and insulation resistance can be analyzed by the following formulas

[0100]

[0101] In the formula, G 1 is the insulation admittance, and r isol is the insulation resistance, and its calculation formula is:

[0102]

[0103] Similarly, the calculation formulas for the oil film admittance G 2 and the oil film resistance r oil are:

[0104]

[0105] In these formulas, G 1 and G 2 are the insulation admittance and the oil film admittance respectively, r isol and r oil are the insulation resistance and the oil film resistance respectively, and ω L is the low-frequency angular frequency.

[0106] Through the co-excitation polling method, the present application effectively realizes the independent monitoring of different bearing impedance branches, ensuring that the impedances of the oil film and the insulation pad can be accurately separated and calculated. By using a frequency-selective filter and an impedance converter, the interference of low-frequency signals on the oil film impedance is avoided, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the oil film monitoring. At the same time, by analyzing and calculating the resistance values of the oil film and the insulation, the monitoring accuracy of the bearing insulation state is further improved, which has important application value.

[0107] In addition, in the co-excitation polling method, in order to eliminate the influence of the change in the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil on the measurement of the oil film thickness, the present application additionally introduces the design of a reference capacitor. By arranging a reference capacitor in the oil tank, the dielectric constant of the oil film can be monitored in real time and its interference on the measurement of the oil film thickness can be eliminated. The following are the specific implementation steps:

[0108] First, arrange a reference capacitor C ref in the oil tank. The dielectric of the reference capacitor is the lubricating oil in the oil tank. Since the dielectric constant ε of the lubricating oil changes with time, the arrangement of the reference capacitor can be used to detect the change in the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil in real time.

[0109] Then, by real-time monitoring the capacitance value of the reference capacitor, the change in the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil can be indirectly deduced, thereby eliminating the influence of the change in the dielectric constant on the measurement of the oil film thickness. Using the change in the reference capacitor, the system can adjust the calculation result of the oil film thickness in a timely manner according to the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil in the oil sump. After eliminating the influence of the change in the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil, the oil film thickness can be accurately calculated. Based on the relationship between the high-frequency current and voltage, the oil film capacitance c oil and the oil film thickness d oil satisfy the following formula:

[0110]

[0111] where ω H is the high-frequency angular frequency, ε is the dielectric constant measured in real time, I oilH and V oilH are the high-frequency current and voltage signals of the oil film respectively.

[0112] Through the dielectric constant ε measured in real time, the thickness d oil of the oil film can be further calculated, and its calculation formula is:

[0113]

[0114] where ε is the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil in the oil sump, V oilH and V XH are the high-frequency voltage signals of the oil film and the reference capacitor respectively, and R is the reference impedance.

[0115] By arranging a reference capacitor in the oil sump and real-time monitoring the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil, the present invention can effectively eliminate the influence of the change in the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil on the measurement of the oil film thickness. Using the relationship between the high-frequency current and voltage to calculate the oil film capacitance and the oil film thickness realizes the precise monitoring and dynamic adjustment of the oil film state. This method significantly improves the accuracy of bearing monitoring, especially in the case of large fluctuations in the dielectric constant of the lubricating oil, ensuring the reliable measurement of the oil film thickness.

[0116] In the separate excitation method proposed in the embodiment of the present application, for the multi-parameter monitoring of bearing insulation, by separately introducing a high-frequency excitation source from the bearing bush, it is possible to realize the analysis and monitoring of the power frequency shaft voltage without relying on the shaft voltage brush. The specific steps are as follows:

[0117] First, as Figure 3As shown, a high-frequency excitation source IGH(29-1) is added to the insulated tap. For the double-layer insulating pad structure with an insulated tap on the static side, by using the high-frequency excitation source and combining with a frequency-selective filter (or impedance converter), the impedance of each bearing bush can be divided into oil film impedance and insulating pad impedance, and the thickness of the oil film can be measured more accurately. In the single-layer insulating pad structure, if an additional insulating pad is added, a high-frequency excitation source is added to the insulated tap, and then the oil film impedance and insulating pad impedance are separated through the impedance converter (21), the same effect can be achieved. If the oil film resistance needs to be measured accurately, an excitation source IGL(29-2) with a relatively low frequency (such as 1 kHz) can be introduced, and the oil film resistance can be obtained by combining with the polling method for analysis.

[0118] Through the above method, the voltage signal of the oil film and the insulating voltage signal can be separated by high-frequency current and voltage signals. By using a frequency-selective filter, the voltage signal of the oil film can be effectively separated. The specific steps of the separate excitation method include:

[0119] First, a high-frequency excitation current source is loaded on the insulated tap, and the voltage signal of the oil film is separated through a frequency-selective filter.

[0120] Then, the voltage of the oil film and the high-frequency current signal are measured, and the oil film capacitance is calculated based on the high-frequency signal. The calculation formula is:

[0121]

[0122] where ω H is the angular frequency of the high-frequency excitation source, I oilH and V oilH are the high-frequency current and voltage signals of the oil film respectively.

[0123] In addition, the oil film thickness d oil is calculated through the voltage amplitude ratio β and the capacitance c isol . The relationship between the oil film thickness and the voltage amplitude ratio is as follows:

[0124]

[0125] where ε is the dielectric constant of the oil film medium, s is the area of the bearing bush, and β is the voltage amplitude ratio.

[0126] Through this formula, the thickness of the oil film can be calculated.

[0127] Through the separate excitation method, a high-frequency excitation source can be independently introduced without relying on the shaft voltage brush, and the impedance of the oil film and the insulating pad can be separated by combining with a frequency-selective filter and an impedance converter. By accurately measuring the oil film voltage and the insulating voltage, key parameters such as the oil film capacitance and the oil film thickness can be effectively calculated. This method can not only achieve multi-parameter monitoring but also improve the monitoring accuracy, providing an important basis for the health assessment and fault warning of the bearing.

[0128] To implement the above embodiments, the present application also proposes a bearing insulation multi-parameter monitoring system. The bearing insulation multi-parameter monitoring system proposed by the present application is as Figure 5 shown. The system includes multiple monitoring units and a host computer system. The monitoring units are respectively used to monitor the bearing insulation status of different parts in the shafting. The host computer system is used to monitor, store, and analyze the received data in real time, and output the dynamic trends of bearing insulation parameters and oil film thickness. Specifically, the system includes an upper guide bearing insulation monitoring unit, a lower guide bearing insulation monitoring unit, a thrust bearing insulation monitoring unit, a water guide bearing insulation monitoring unit, and a host computer system. Each monitoring unit realizes data sharing through an RS485 network and transmits the data to the host computer system for processing and analysis.

[0129] Specifically, each monitoring unit includes:

[0130] High-frequency excitation source: Introduced through a grounding brush, used to load high-frequency voltage signals. This excitation source superimposes high-frequency signals on the shaft voltage to ensure effective separation of high-frequency and low-frequency signals.

Its main function is to separate high-frequency and low-frequency signals, and amplify and condition the signals. The preconditioner includes components such as a high-pass frequency selection filter, a low-pass frequency selection filter, a poller, an amplifier, a differentiator, and a control switch.

[0133] Digital signal processing unit: Used to collect the conditioned signals through a multi-channel high-resolution A / D converter and calculate multiple bearing insulation parameters, including oil film capacitance, insulation capacitance, oil film thickness, oil film resistance, and insulation resistance. This unit also includes a spectrum analysis module that can perform spectrum analysis on the monitoring signals, extract each harmonic component, and assist the system in analysis and fault warning.

[0134] Data transmission unit: Remotely transmits the data of each monitoring unit to the host computer system through an RS485 network.

[0135] It should be noted that in the bearing monitoring system of this application, the selection of measurement points is very crucial. The measurement points should be selected at one or more bearing bush positions of the upper guide bearing and thrust bearing of the shafting. Selecting these positions as measurement points can effectively capture the electrical characteristics of each part of the bearing, accurately monitor the state of the oil film and insulation pad, and calculate the insulation capacitance of each part of the bearing according to the factory design and actual specific dimensions. This parameter is crucial for evaluating the performance of the insulation backing plate.

[0136] In addition, referring to Figure 2 , the preconditioner 1 is composed of components such as a high-pass frequency-selective filter (1), a low-pass frequency-selective filter (2), a poller (3), high-pass frequency-selective amplifiers (4, 6), low-pass frequency-selective amplifiers (5, 7), a differentiator (8), a control switch SW (9), etc. The preconditioner introduces the shaft voltage VSH and the ground point GRN from the shaft brush, and introduces the insulation impedance junction point P from the bearing bush base or insulation tap: The impedance insulation voltage VX is detected in a polling manner H , VX L , the impedance insulation current IX H , IX L . The preconditioner 2 is composed of components such as a preamplifier differentiator (10, 15), frequency-selective filters (11, 16), differentiators (12, 17), frequency-selective amplifiers (13, 18), demodulators (14, 19), and a divider (15), and outputs the capacitance ratio β.

[0137] Through the combination of these functional modules, the preconditioner can achieve multi-level processing of signals, including the separation of high-frequency and low-frequency signals, the amplification and conditioning of signals, and finally ensure that the signal quality meets the requirements, facilitating the subsequent analysis and calculation by the digital signal processing unit. And the preconditioner guides the high-frequency and low-frequency signals to different impedance branches in turn through the poller. Specifically, the shaft voltage introduced from the shaft brush and the signal on the ground point, as well as the insulation impedance junction point introduced from the bearing bush base or insulation tap, after polling, will respectively detect the impedance insulation voltage and impedance current. These signals, after being processed, will be transmitted to the digital signal processing unit for further analysis.

[0138] In addition, as Figure 4 shown, the detected signals (VX H , VX L , VSH H , VSH L ) 1~N , (β 1 , β 2 , …β N ) of the bearing position are led out to the digital signal processing unit 3 through a shielded cable, and the analog-to-digital conversion is completed through a multi-channel high-resolution A / D. The CPU calculates the insulation impedance z and capacitance (c isol , coil ) Resistance (r isol , r oil ), oil film thickness d oil of dynamic and static data, as well as their maximum values, minimum values, peak-to-peak values, and mean values; it can perform spectral analysis on signals such as shaft voltage and oil film thickness, and extract each harmonic component. The digital signal processing unit can form a local RS485 network to meet the requirements of multi-parameter and multi-channel online monitoring of bearings.

[0139] Through high-resolution A / D conversion and a digital signal processing unit, this system can accurately monitor and calculate multiple key parameters of bearings, such as insulation impedance, capacitance, resistance, and oil film thickness. At the same time, with the help of spectral analysis and harmonic component extraction, the shaft voltage signal can be further analyzed, providing a scientific basis for the health assessment and fault warning of bearings. With the support of the RS485 network, the system can achieve data sharing and remote transmission of multiple monitoring channels, ensuring the real-time and reliability of bearing monitoring.
