Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of urban rail transit traction power supply, and particularly to a method and system for calculating the impedance of a traction network in a three-phase AC traction power supply system. Background Art

[0002] At present, the power supply systems of rail transit traction networks mainly include DC 1500V, 750V DC power supply, and single-phase AC 25kV, 15kV power supply. Among them, the DC power supply system generally uses catenary (contact rail) for power supply, and the running rail or special rail for return; the AC power supply system usually uses catenary for power supply, and the running rail and return line for return. Whether it is the DC power supply system or the AC power supply system, its traction network can be regarded as a two-wire system.

[0003] However, there are many problems in the existing power supply systems. The DC 1500V and 750V power supply systems will generate stray currents, which will cause long-term electrochemical corrosion and damage to underground metal pipelines and steel structures, seriously threatening the life and safety of urban underground facilities, and its long-term losses are immeasurable. In addition, the braking regenerative energy of vehicles cannot be directly utilized in the DC power supply system, and additional inverter equipment needs to be added, which undoubtedly increases the investment cost.

[0004] The single-phase AC 25kV power supply system will generate negative sequence currents, which will have a greater impact on the power system and pose higher requirements for its power supply capacity. In order to reduce the unbalanced impact on the power system, it is usually necessary to set up electrical neutral sections at the outlet of the traction substation and between adjacent traction substations. However, the existence of electrical neutral sections will affect the safe operation and efficiency of trains. At the same time, the single-phase AC 15kV and 25kV catenaries require a large safety distance. Compared with low-voltage power supply, this will increase the cross-section of the rail transit tunnel section, and thus increase the civil engineering investment.

[0005] To solve the above problems, an AC 3kV three-phase traction power supply system has emerged. This system not only avoids the problem of stray current corrosion in the DC system, but also solves the negative sequence problem caused by three-phase imbalance. Moreover, the electrical safety distance required for the AC 3kV voltage level is equivalent to that of the DC system, which is 225mm smaller than that of the single-phase AC 25kV traction power supply system, thus reducing the requirement for the tunnel clearance and directly reducing the civil engineering investment.

[0006] Among the measurement indicators of power supply capacity, voltage deviation is an important reference factor, and voltage deviation is significantly affected by the impedance of the traction network. For DC 750V and 1500V traction power supply systems and single-phase AC 25kV traction power supply systems, since they adopt a double-wire system, the currents in the catenary and the running rail (return rail) are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, so the calculation methods for their impedance and voltage drop have been relatively mature. Accurate impedance calculation helps to predict and reduce power losses in the system, extend the equipment life, and reduce maintenance costs caused by equipment failures. However, for three-phase traction power supply systems, the magnitudes of their three-phase currents are equal and the phase angle difference is 120°, which makes the calculation methods for their impedance and voltage drop yet to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present invention aims to provide a calculation method and system for the impedance of the traction network of a three-phase AC traction power supply system. By equivalenting the contact rail and the steel rail to cylindrical conductors and constructing an overhead line model based on the Carson ground loop impedance model accordingly, accurate calculation of the self-impedance and mutual impedance of the conductors is achieved. This method comprehensively considers the conductivity of the earth and the electromagnetic interaction between conductors, thus significantly improving the accuracy of the calculation results. In addition, the present invention particularly considers the influence of the earth conductivity on impedance calculation, effectively reducing the electromagnetic interference caused by electromagnetic coupling between conductors. This enables our system to adapt to diverse geological environments, enhancing electromagnetic compatibility and system adaptability. By accurately predicting, calculating, and controlling the voltage drop, this method can evaluate the voltage stability, power loss, and overall efficiency of the traction power supply system, providing a solid theoretical basis for the optimal design of the system. By optimizing the design of the traction power supply system, the safety of the system can be improved, and the risks of faults and accidents can be reduced. By establishing an accurate circuit model and impedance calculation formula, accurate evaluation of the traction network impedance is achieved; and through a standardized impedance calculation process, the standardized design and evaluation work of the traction power supply system are promoted. The present invention provides an innovative impedance calculation method for the AC 3kV three-phase traction power supply system, which not only improves the calculation accuracy and system adaptability, but also provides important support for the safety, economy, and standardized design of the system.

[0071] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0072] As Figure 1 shown, one aspect of the present invention provides a method for calculating the traction network impedance of a three-phase AC traction power supply system. The power supply voltage level of the three-phase traction power supply system is 3 kV AC. The method includes:

[0073] S1: According to the requirements of the vehicle power receiving system, select the left contact rail, the right contact rail and the running rail as the three-phase conductors, and determine the materials and electrical parameters of each conductor; the electrical parameters include cross-sectional area, perimeter and resistance per unit length;

[0074] Specifically, in accordance with the principle of minimizing the changes to the power receiving systems such as the vehicle and the contact rail, the left contact rail, the right contact rail and the running rail are selected as the three-phase conductors. Among them, the A-phase conductor uses a left steel-aluminum composite rail, with an aluminum rail area of 4775 mm 2 , a perimeter of 239 mm, and a DC resistance of 7.141 mΩ / km (20 °C); the B-phase conductor uses a right steel-aluminum composite rail, with an aluminum rail area of 4775 mm2, a perimeter of 239 mm, and a DC resistance of 7.141 mΩ / km (20 °C); the C-phase conductor uses two P60 steel rails, with a single-rail cross-sectional area of 7745 mm2, a perimeter of 706 mm, and a resistivity of 0.147×10-5 Ω·cm (20 °C);

[0075] S2: Determine the installation positions of the three-phase conductors according to the power receiving requirements of the vehicle, and ensure that the horizontal and vertical distances between each contact rail and the rail meet the design requirements; Figure 2 is the position distribution diagram of the three-phase conductors;

[0076] Specifically, the horizontal distance between the contact rail and the rail is 715 mm, and the vertical distance is 360 mm; the distance between the left and right rail bars is 1510 mm;

[0077] S3: Equivalent the contact rail and the rail into cylindrical conductors respectively, and determine the geometric parameters of the equivalent cylindrical conductors; construct an overhead line model of the equivalent cylindrical conductors, and calculate the self-impedance of the conductors and the mutual impedance between the conductors according to the electromagnetic theory and the Carcon earth loop impedance model respectively;

[0078] S4: Calculate the voltage drops of the contact rail and the running rail respectively according to the impedance values of the conductor self-impedance and the mutual impedance between the conductors obtained by calculation.

[0079] Furthermore, in step S3, the overhead line model is a simplified method that equivalent the actual conductors (such as contact rails, rails, etc.) into overhead conductors. This model assumes that the conductors are cylindrical, which is convenient for calculating their electromagnetic characteristics. For conductors with non-circular cross-sections (such as rails), they are transformed into cylindrical conductors for calculation by the method of equivalent radius;

[0080] The Carson model is a classic impedance calculation method used to calculate the self-impedance and mutual impedance of overhead conductors in the earth loop. It takes into account the conductivity of the earth and the electromagnetic coupling between the conductors. The core idea of this model is to divide the impedance of the conductor into two parts: the internal impedance, which is related to the material and cross-section characteristics of the conductor itself; the external impedance, which is related to the relative positions between the conductors, the conductivity of the earth, and the distribution of the electromagnetic field;

[0081] Furthermore, in step S3, both the contact rail and the rail are equivalent to cylindrical conductors, and the distribution structure of the conductors after equivalence is as Figure 3 shown;

[0082] Determining the geometric parameters of the equivalent cylindrical conductors includes:

[0083] Select the equivalent principle according to the cross-section characteristics of the contact rail and the rail; use the principle of equal area or equal perimeter to determine the radius of the equivalent cylinder;

[0084] Set the length of the equivalent cylindrical conductor according to the actual laying lengths of the contact rail and the rail;

[0085] Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of the actual conductor is complex (such as the I-shaped cross-section of a rail), and it is very complex to directly calculate its electromagnetic characteristics. By equivalent to a cylindrical conductor, mature electromagnetic theories (such as the Carson model) can be used for simplified calculations; the equivalent principle can ensure consistency with the actual conductor in key electromagnetic characteristics (such as resistance, inductance, or impedance), thus ensuring the accuracy of the calculation results; different equivalent principles are applicable to different operating frequencies, and choosing the appropriate equivalent principle can more accurately reflect the electromagnetic characteristics of the conductor under actual operating conditions; the core of the equivalent principle is to simplify the actual conductor cross-section (such as rectangular, I-shaped, or other complex shapes) into a circular cross-section while ensuring consistency with the original conductor in specific electromagnetic characteristics (such as resistance, inductance, or impedance). Which equivalent principle to specifically choose depends on the operating frequency and the geometric shape of the conductor: the operating frequency includes low-frequency and high-frequency cases; the geometric shape of the conductor includes rectangular cross-section and complex cross-section;

[0086] Low-frequency cases (such as direct current or power frequency 50 Hz): The current is mainly evenly distributed within the conductor cross-section. At this time, the area equivalent principle is usually adopted; High-frequency cases (such as in the megahertz range): Due to the skin effect, the current is mainly concentrated on the surface of the conductor. At this time, the perimeter equal principle is usually adopted;

[0087] For a rectangular cross-section (such as a contact rail), the equivalent radius can be selected according to its cross-sectional area or perimeter; For a complex cross-section (such as a rail), it is necessary to perform the equivalent in combination with the actual current distribution;

[0088] Furthermore, the overhead line model for constructing the equivalent cylindrical conductor in step S3 includes:

[0089] Equivalent the contact rail and the rail to an overhead cylindrical conductor;

[0090] Regard the equivalent cylindrical conductor as an overhead line model, ignoring its actual laying position, and only considering the relative position and spacing between the conductors;

[0091] According to the actual laying situation, determine the horizontal and vertical distances between the contact rail and the rail, as well as the spacing between the rails;

[0092] Furthermore, Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of a typical Carcon ground loop impedance model; The Carcon ground loop impedance model includes the ground, a conductor located above the ground, and an equivalent ground loop conductor located inside the ground; Among them, the height of the center of the conductor from the ground surface is h, and the depth of the equivalent ground loop conductor is D g ; In step S3, calculate the self-impedance of the conductor and the mutual impedance between the conductors according to the electromagnetic theory and the Carcon ground loop impedance model respectively; including:

[0093] S31: Calculate the effective resistance per unit length of the rail according to the magnetic saturation coefficient of the steel conductor, the resistivity of the steel conductor, and the cross-sectional area of the steel conductor;

[0094] S32: Calculate the self-impedance of a single running rail, the mutual impedance between two rails, and the equivalent self-impedance of the running rail according to the effective resistance per unit length of the rail, the depth of the equivalent ground return conductor, the equivalent radius of the rail, and the distance between two rails respectively;

[0095] S33: Calculate the self-impedance of the contact rail, the mutual impedance between contact rails, and the mutual impedance between the contact rail and the rail according to the effective resistance per unit length of the contact rail, the equivalent radius of the contact rail, the depth of the equivalent ground return conductor, the distance between two contact rails, and the distance between the contact rail and the rail respectively;

[0096] Further, the effective resistance per unit length of the rail r in step S31 g is calculated by Equation (1):

[0097]

[0098] where β is the magnetic saturation coefficient of the steel conductor; ρ is the resistivity of the steel conductor at a working temperature of 20°C, taking 0.147×10 -4 Ω·mm; S is the cross-sectional area of the steel conductor, in mm 2 ;

[0099] The magnetic saturation coefficient β of the steel conductor is calculated by Equation (2):

[0100]

[0101] where p is the perimeter of the steel conductor, in mm; f is (Hz), 50 Hz; μ is the relative magnetic permeability of the steel conductor, and its value is related to the magnetic field strength H; as Figure 5 shown, it is a schematic diagram of the μ=f(H) curve for steel of different carbon contents;

[0102] The relationship between the relative magnetic permeability μ of the steel conductor and the magnetic field strength H is expressed by Equation (3):

[0103]

[0104] where I is the current passing through the steel conductor, in A;

[0105] Further, the self-impedance of a single running rail in step S32 is calculated by Equation (4):

[0106]

[0107] In the formula, Z g is the self-impedance of the rail (Ω / km); r g is the effective resistance per unit length of the rail (Ω / km); D gis the depth of the equivalent ground return conductor (mm); R g is the equivalent radius of the rail (mm); j is the imaginary unit;

[0108] The depth D of the equivalent ground return conductor g The depth of the equivalent ground return conductor is calculated according to the earth conductivity and frequency, and is expressed by Equation (12):

[0109]

[0110] In the formula, f is the frequency (Hz), taking 50 Hz; σ is the earth conductivity (1 / Ω·cm), generally taking 10 -4 / Ω·cm for multi-rock geology;

[0111] The mutual impedance between two rails is calculated by Equation (5):

[0112]

[0113] In the formula, Z gg is the mutual impedance between two rails (Ω / km); d gg is the distance between two rails (mm); D g is the depth of the equivalent ground return conductor (mm);

[0114] The self-impedance Z of the running rail G is calculated by Equation (6):

[0115]

[0116] Furthermore, the self-impedance of the contact rail in step S33 is calculated according to Equation (7):

[0117]

[0118] Among them, Z j is the self-impedance of the contact rail, (Ω / km); r j is the effective resistance per unit length of the contact rail (Ω / km), approximately taking the DC resistance of the aluminum conductor; R j is the equivalent radius of the contact rail (mm);

[0119] The mutual impedance of the contact rail is calculated by Equation (8):

[0120]

[0121] Among them, Z jj is the mutual impedance of the contact rail, (Ω / km); d jj is the distance between the contact rails (mm);

[0122] The mutual impedance Z between the contact rail and the rail jG is calculated by Equation (9):

[0123]

[0124] where d jg1 is the distance (mm) between the contact rail and one of the steel rails; d jg2 is the distance (mm) between the contact rail and the other steel rail;

[0125] Furthermore, in step S4, the voltage drop is the voltage loss caused by the impedance of the conductor to the current when the current flows through the conductor. In a three-phase AC system, the current in each phase will generate a voltage drop on its corresponding conductor. At the same time, due to the electromagnetic coupling between the conductors, the currents in different phases may also generate additional voltage drops (caused by mutual impedance) on other conductors. These voltage drops are very important parameters for analyzing and designing power systems, especially traction power supply systems.

[0126] In a three-phase AC system, calculating the voltage drop usually requires considering the self-impedance generated when the current in each phase flows through its corresponding conductors (such as the contact rail and the running rail), as well as the mutual impedance between the currents in different phases. The calculation method of the voltage drop can be divided into the following steps:

[0127] Step 1: Determine the self-impedance and mutual impedance of each phase conductor; these parameters can be obtained through experimental measurements or calculated using electromagnetic field theory;

[0128] Step 2: Calculate the voltage drop generated by the current in each phase on the conductor;

[0129] Step 3: Consider the influence of the mutual impedance and calculate the contribution of the mutual impedance to the voltage drop;

[0130] In a three-phase system, the current in one phase not only affects the voltage drop of this phase, but may also affect the voltage drops of other phases through the mutual impedance. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate the contribution of the mutual impedance to the voltage drop;

[0131] Step 4: Calculate the total voltage drop; for each conductor (such as the contact rail and the running rail), its total voltage drop is the vector sum of the voltage drops generated by all phase currents.

[0132] Furthermore, the contact rail voltage drop is calculated by Equation (10):

[0133] ΔU j =I a Z j1 +I b Z jj1 +I c Z jG1 (10)

[0134] where ΔU j represents the voltage drop on the contact rail; I a , I b, I c : respectively represent the phase A, phase B, and phase C currents in the three-phase current; Z j1 represents the self-impedance of the contact rail through which the phase A current I a flows, and is calculated by Equation (7); Z jj1 represents the self-impedance of the contact rail through which the phase B current I b flows, and is calculated by Equation (8); Z jG1 represents the mutual impedance between the contact rail and the running rail through which the phase C current I c flows, and is calculated by Equation (9);

[0135] The voltage drop of the running rail is calculated by Equation (11):

[0136] ΔU g = I c Z G1 + I a Z jG2 + I b Z jG2 (11)

[0137] Among them, ΔU g represents the voltage drop on the running rail; Z G1 represents the self-impedance of the running rail through which the phase C current flows, and is calculated by Equation (6); Z jG2 represents the phase A current I a and the phase B current I b flows through the mutual impedance between the contact rail and the running rail, and is calculated by Equation (9); Z jG2 and Z jG1 represent the same mutual impedance.
