Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an oil storage compensation device in the power transformation industry, and more specifically to a floor-mounted oil storage device for a power transformation system. Background Art

[0002] In a power transformation system, transformers can be classified into dry-type transformers and oil-immersed transformers according to different insulating media. When an oil-immersed transformer is in operation, heat is dissipated inside it, causing the temperature of the transformer oil in the oil tank to rise. Since the transformer oil is a liquid, it has the phenomenon of thermal expansion and contraction. If the periphery of the oil tank is completely enclosed, the pressure inside the oil tank will increase after the transformer oil expands due to temperature rise, resulting in deformation, damage, or even explosion of the oil tank. Therefore, a volume compensation device needs to be set for the oil tank, which can press the excess oil into the compensation device when the internal pressure of the oil tank becomes large to release the pressure; conversely, when the pressure drops, the oil in the compensation device is sucked back. In this way, no large deformation will occur in the oil tank regardless of temperature changes. The conventional design scheme is to install an oil conservator on the upper part of the transformer oil tank, which is connected to the transformer oil tank through a pipeline. The oil conservator of the transformer has two functions. One is to provide space for the thermal expansion and contraction of the transformer oil in the transformer oil tank; the other is to separate the transformer oil from the external atmosphere to prevent the transformer oil from contacting water vapor and oxygen in the air and causing aging and deterioration. Currently, the following technical deficiencies exist in all oil conservators on the market:

[0003] 1. The oil conservator is generally installed on the top of the transformer oil tank. However, since there are also many pipelines and components arranged on the top of the transformer oil tank, the space occupied by the oil conservator will affect the arrangement of other components and the insulation distance from other electrical components. If the size of the oil conservator is too large, there is currently another solution, which is to set up a bracket on the ground near the transformer, with a height higher than that of the transformer oil tank, and then place the oil conservator on the bracket and connect it to the transformer oil tank through a pipeline. Although this solution solves the problem of the oil conservator occupying the space on the top of the transformer, due to the addition of the bracket, it occupies additional building space and the cost is too high.

[0004] 2. The weight of the oil conservator (which can reach more than ten tons in the case of a heavy one) will cause stress concentration near the support points of the transformer oil tank cover, affecting the overall stress condition of the transformer. In order for the oil tank to bear the gravity of the oil conservator, a high-strength bracket that meets the full-load condition of the oil conservator needs to be designed, which puts forward high requirements for the design of the oil tank structure and the bracket, increasing the material cost and manufacturing difficulty.

[0005] 3. A substation requires multiple transformers, and each transformer needs to be equipped with an oil conservator. During equipment operation, personnel need to be arranged to conduct regular inspections to observe the oil level of each oil conservator to judge the overall operation condition of the transformer. Each oil conservator is scattered and cannot be monitored centrally, and it is not easy to detect abnormalities in a single oil conservator in a timely manner.

[0006] 4. During the daily maintenance and overhaul of the equipment, since the oil conservator is placed on the upper part of the transformer oil tank, it requires operators to work at heights and corresponding climbing and hoisting equipment needs to be equipped, which increases the complexity of the maintenance and overhaul work. At the same time, during the operation, it is necessary to cut off the power supply of the lower transformer, and the power cut will affect the surrounding production and life, and the power supply bureau needs to submit a report for approval.

[0007] Due to the above various deficiencies in the prior art, transformer users are very eager to move the oil storage device to the ground. So far, there is no feasible example in the industry that can successfully relocate the oil storage device to the ground. The invention patent with the publication number CN102024549A, which was published on April 20, 2011, discloses a "ground-mounted oil conservator", which is a solution to place the oil conservator at a position lower than the transformer oil tank cover, but this solution has technical defects. When the oil conservator is placed at a position lower than the transformer oil tank cover, due to the height difference, the transformer oil will form a huge pressure on the lower-positioned oil conservator. At the same time, due to the siphon effect, this solution will cause a negative pressure inside the transformer, that is, the internal pressure of the transformer is less than the external atmospheric pressure. This phenomenon will make it easy for oxygen or moisture in the atmosphere to enter the transformer, affecting the normal operation of the transformer. Summary of the Invention

[0008] In order to solve the problem of placing the oil storage device on the ground, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a ground-mounted oil storage device for a power transformation system.

[0014] The air pump chamber, the pressurized air chamber, and the pressure release air chamber are all located above the pressure medium oil chamber. The high-pressure air from the adjustable high-pressure air pump to the pressurized air chamber enters the pressure medium oil chamber through the one-way pressure regulating valve B.

Valves for controlling the pipeline switch are respectively provided on the oil conservator exhaust pipe 103 and the cylinder body exhaust pipe 112 of this embodiment. A connecting pipe 107 of the oil conservator is provided at the lower part of the cylinder body 101. One end of the connecting pipe 107 of the oil conservator is communicated with the inner cavity of the corrugated core 104, and the other end is connected to the upper part of the transformer 5 through the transformer insulating oil pipeline system 4. A transformer insulating oil injection pipe 108 and a pressure gauge A109 are installed on the connecting pipe 107 of the oil conservator.

[0036] In this embodiment, a limiting post 110 and guide wheels 111 are respectively provided on the upper part of the corrugated core 104. There are multiple guide wheels 111, which are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the upper part of the corrugated core 104. Each guide wheel 111 rolls along the inner wall of the cylinder body 101 when the corrugated core 104 expands or contracts. The limiting post 110 is located inside each guide wheel 111 for restricting the expansion of the corrugated core 104.

[0037] On the side wall of the cylinder body 101 of this embodiment, an oil conservator level gauge 102 and a pressure medium oil injection pipe 105 are respectively installed. The pressure medium oil injection pipe 105 is arranged at the lower part of the side wall of the cylinder body 101, and the oil conservator level gauge 102 is arranged near the upper part of the cylinder body 101, and is used to display the real-time height of the expansion of the corrugated core 104. The inner cavity of the corrugated core 104 is filled with transformer insulating oil 115, and pressure medium oil 218 is injected into the space between the inside of the cylinder body 101 and the outside of the corrugated core 104 through the pressure medium oil injection pipe 105. The corrugated core 104 separates the transformer insulating oil 115 from the pressure medium oil 218 and they do not contact each other.

[0038] The pressure balancing device 2 of this embodiment includes a housing 206, a base B211 and an adjustable high-pressure air pump 215. The base 211 is arranged on the ground, and the housing 206 is installed on the base 211. The interior of the housing 206 is divided into four mutually independent sealed spaces: a pressure release air chamber 202, a pressure medium oil chamber 210, an air pump chamber 214 and a pressurizing air chamber 217. The pressure medium oil chamber 210 is filled with pressure medium oil 218. A pressure medium oil interface 209 for connecting a pressure medium oil connecting pipe 3 is provided at the lower part of the pressure medium oil chamber 210. The pressure medium oil interface 209 is connected to the upper part of the cylinder body 101 through the pressure medium oil connecting pipe 3. The air pump chamber 214 is located at the leftmost side of the upper part of the pressure medium oil chamber 210, and an adjustable high-pressure air pump 215 is installed inside. An air pump maintenance window 216 is opened on the housing 206 corresponding to the air pump chamber 214. The adjustable high-pressure air pump 215 can inject high-pressure air into the pressurizing air chamber 217. The pressure medium oil chamber 210 is respectively connected to the pressure release air chamber 202 and the pressurizing air chamber 217 through a one-way pressure regulating valve A204 and a one-way pressure regulating valve B205. The pressure release air chamber 202 is communicated with the atmosphere through a pressure release valve 203. The high-pressure air injected by the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215 into the pressurizing air chamber 217 enters the pressure medium oil chamber 210 through the one-way pressure regulating valve B205. When the pressure of the high-pressure gas inside the pressure medium oil chamber 210 is too high, the high-pressure air enters the pressure release air chamber 202 through the one-way pressure regulating valve A204 and is then depressurized through the pressure release valve 203. The pressure of the high-pressure air in this embodiment is determined by the height difference between the upper part of the transformer 5 and the oil conservator 1. According to different models of the transformer 5, the height difference is 3 to 10 meters, and the pressure of the high-pressure air injected by the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215 into the pressurizing air chamber 217 is 0.5 to 2 atmospheres.

[0039] In the upper part of the housing 206 of this embodiment, a maintenance flange 201 is provided. The maintenance flange 201 is located between the pressure release air chamber 202 and the pressurizing air chamber 217, and is used for the inspection and maintenance of the pressurizing air chamber 217 and the pressure release air chamber 202. On the side surface of the housing 206 corresponding to the pressure medium oil chamber 210, a communicating tube type oil level gauge 207, a pressure gauge B213 and an oil injection tube 208 are respectively installed. The communicating tube type oil level gauge 207 is used to display the oil level in the pressure medium oil chamber 210, and the pressure gauge B213 is used to display the air pressure in the pressure medium oil chamber 210. The control cabinet 212 is fixed on the side surface of the housing 206, and the control cabinet 212 is connected to the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215 for controlling the operation of the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215. The oil injection tube 208 is arranged at a position near the lower part of the housing 206 and is used for injecting the pressure medium oil 218 into the inner cavity of the housing 206.

[0040] The transformer insulating oil pipeline system 4 of this embodiment includes a transformer and conservator connecting pipe 401, a butterfly valve B402, an exhaust valve 403, a butterfly valve C404, a gas relay 405 and a working pressure gauge 406. The upper part of the transformer 5 is connected to the conservator through the transformer and conservator connecting pipe 401 and the conservator connecting pipe 107. The butterfly valve B402 and the butterfly valve C404 are respectively arranged on the transformer and conservator connecting pipe 401. The gas relay 405 and the working pressure gauge 406 are located on the pipeline between the transformer 5 and the butterfly valve C404, and the exhaust valve 403 is located on the pipeline between the butterfly valve B402 and the butterfly valve C404.

[0041] One or more conservators 1 can be provided in this embodiment. When there are multiple conservators 1, they are interconnected through the conservator connecting pipes 107 at the lower parts of the conservators 1. At the same time, the pressure balance pipeline interfaces 113 at the upper parts of the conservators 1 are respectively connected to the pressure balance device 2, that is, one pressure balance device 2 provides the pressure medium oil 218 for multiple conservators 1 at the same time.

[0042] The working principle of the present invention is:

[0043] After all components of the present invention are connected and installed to the transformer 5, open the butterfly valve B402 and the butterfly valve C404, open the conservator exhaust pipe 103 and the cylinder exhaust pipe 112 in the conservator 1, and then inject transformer insulating oil into the transformer 5 until the transformer insulating oil fills the entire transformer 5 and flows into the corrugated core 104 in the conservator 1 through the transformer insulating oil pipeline system 4; then stop injecting oil into the transformer 5 and instead inject oil from the transformer insulating oil injection pipe 108 until the transformer insulating oil in the corrugated core 104 flows out from the conservator exhaust pipe 103, indicating that the corrugated core 104 is full and the air has been exhausted; at this time, close the conservator exhaust pipe 103, and the partial injection of the transformer insulating oil is completed. Due to the height difference between the lower part of the conservator 1 and the upper part of the transformer 5, at this time, the inside of the corrugated core 104 bears the positive pressure brought by the height of the transformer insulating oil, causing the corrugated core 104 to expand, and the limit post 110 approaches or abuts against the upper cover of the cylinder 101.

[0044] Next, inject the pressure medium oil 218. First, keep the cylinder exhaust pipe 112 in the conservator 1 open, and inject the pressure medium oil 218 into the space between the inside of the cylinder 101 and the outside of the corrugated core 104 from the pressure medium oil injection pipe 105. When the pressure medium oil 218 flows out from the cylinder exhaust pipe 112, close the cylinder exhaust pipe 112; continue to inject the pressure medium oil 218 so that the pressure medium oil 218 sequentially passes through the pressure balance pipeline interface 113, the pressure medium oil connecting pipe 3, and the pressure medium oil interface 209 and enters the pressure medium oil chamber 210 in the pressure balance device 2. After that, to increase the injection speed, the pressure medium oil 218 can be injected simultaneously from the injection pipe 208 until the pressure medium oil 218 fills two-thirds of the volume of the pressure medium oil chamber 210, and the injection of the pressure medium oil 218 ends. At this time, the entire system is ready, the reading of the conservator level gauge 102 in the conservator 1 is at or near the maximum value, the oil level of the communicating type oil level gauge 207 in the pressure balance device 2 is at two-thirds, and the working pressure gauge 406 on the upper part of the transformer 5 should be negative (i.e., lower than the atmospheric pressure).

[0045] After that, perform the inflation operation. Open the control cabinet 212 in the pressure balance device 2, start the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215, and inflate the pressurizing air chamber 217. The high-pressure air enters the pressure medium oil chamber 210 through the one-way pressure regulating valve B205. The air pressure will be converted into the oil pressure of the pressure medium oil 218 and transmitted into the cylinder 101 of the conservator 1, pushing the upper part of the corrugated core 104 to contract. After the corrugated core 104 contracts, the oil pressure of the transformer insulating oil 115 inside it increases, and further causes the reading of the working pressure gauge 406 on the upper part of the transformer 5 to increase. When the reading of the working pressure gauge 406 is 200 Pa, close the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215, and at this time, the inflation is completed. The entire system is in a pressure balance state, and the final pressure on the transformer 5 is a slightly positive pressure of 200 Pa, meeting the requirements of the slightly positive pressure of the transformer.

[0046] After the inflation is completed, the transformer 5 is ready for normal operation. When the transformer 5 is operating normally at the rated power, the reading of the conservator level gauge 102 in the conservator 1 is taken as the rated oil level, and the reading of the pressure gauge B213 in the pressure balance device 2 is taken as the rated balance pressure. For transformers of different heights, their rated oil levels and rated balance pressures are also different. Based on the rated balance pressure, with a fluctuation range of ±10%, the release pressure of the pressure relief valve 203 and the opening pressure of the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215 are respectively set. When the power of the transformer 5 decreases, the heat dissipated during its operation also decreases, the insulating oil of the transformer cools and contracts, and the corrugated core 104 in the conservator 1 also contracts accordingly. Eventually, the pressure in the pressure medium oil chamber 210 of the pressure balance device 2 decreases, and the reading of the pressure gauge B213 drops. When the pressure drops below 90% of the rated balance pressure, the control cabinet 212 starts the adjustable high-pressure air pump 215 to inflate and boost the pressure to maintain system balance. When the power of the transformer 5 increases, the heat dissipated during its operation also increases, the insulating oil of the transformer heats up and expands, and the corrugated core 104 in the conservator 1 also expands accordingly. Eventually, the pressure in the pressure medium oil chamber 210 of the pressure balance device 2 increases, and the reading of the pressure gauge B213 rises. When the pressure rises above 110% of the rated balance pressure, the pressure relief valve 203 opens to exhaust and relieve the pressure to maintain system balance.
