Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of urban rail braking, and more particularly to an abnormality early warning system and method for an urban rail braking energy feedback device. Background Art
[0002] Urban rail transit, with its advantages of large passenger capacity and high efficiency, has become a preferred solution to addressing the increasing congestion in cities. During operation, urban rail trains typically rely on diode rectifiers to provide traction. Furthermore, a braking energy regeneration device is introduced to absorb and regenerate the braking energy generated by the frequent acceleration and deceleration of trains between short-distance urban rail stations.
[0003] The key component of a braking energy regeneration device is the IGBT module. This high-power switching device absorbs regenerative braking energy and inverts it into AC power with the same frequency and phase as the grid voltage, sending it back to the grid. This simultaneously processes regenerative energy and stabilizes the DC traction grid voltage. However, due to the operating characteristics of the IGBT module, its peak power can reach 9 to 12MW, generating significant heat. This accumulation of heat in a short period of time can cause significant damage to the IGBT itself. Furthermore, each high temperature exposure causes an irreversible, nonlinear reduction in the lifespan of the IGBT module, leading to failure or even explosion.
[0004] Existing technology can only report a fault when the IGBT module temperature exceeds zero. However, the heat dissipation of the IGBT module in the urban rail brake energy regeneration device is primarily achieved through a heat dissipation module, fan, air duct, air outlet, filter, and other components. Existing high-speed heat dissipation fans are often forced to start, and long-term high-speed operation will exacerbate fan aging. Furthermore, because PM10 dust and other pollutants are often present in substations, dust filters are installed at the air inlet of the fan duct to effectively prevent dust from entering the equipment. However, a clogged filter will hinder air flow into the air inlet. Existing technology cannot provide warnings for abnormalities such as fan failure and filter clogs, cannot prevent the IGBT module from overheating, and cannot identify the cause when the IGBT module temperature exceeds zero. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to overcome the defect of the energy feedback device described in the above-mentioned prior art that it can only feedback a fault after the temperature of the IGBT module is too high, the present invention provides an abnormal warning system and method for an urban rail brake energy feedback device.

[0010] The monitoring unit analyzes the abnormal conditions and fault conditions of the IGBT module based on the received data, and is used to issue an abnormality warning when an abnormality exists, issue a fault message when a fault exists, and switch the working condition of the IGBT module.
[0011] The present invention also proposes a method based on an abnormal warning system of an urban rail braking energy feedback device, comprising the following steps:

[0056] As an exemplary illustration, the monitoring unit includes a first monitoring module and a second monitoring module;

[0063] like Figure 3 As shown, the method based on the abnormal warning system of the urban rail braking energy feedback device includes the following steps:
[0064] S1: The temperature data collected by the temperature measuring device is processed into analog value by the temperature receiving unit and then uploaded to the monitoring unit;
[0065] S2: uploading the current and voltage data of the IGBT module collected by the current transformer and the voltage transformer respectively to the monitoring unit through the electrical parameter receiving unit;
[0066] S3: Analyze the abnormal conditions and fault conditions of the IGBT module based on the data received by the monitoring unit, issue an abnormality warning when an abnormality exists, issue a fault message when a fault exists, and switch the working condition of the IGBT module.
[0067] This embodiment further proposes a computer device, including a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores computer-readable instructions. When the computer-readable instructions are executed by the processor, the processor executes the steps of the method based on the abnormal warning system of the urban rail braking energy feedback device as described in this embodiment.
[0068] It can be understood that the method of this embodiment is based on the system of embodiment 1, and the options in the above embodiment 1 are also applicable to this embodiment, so they will not be described again here.
[0069] Example 3:
[0070] This embodiment proposes a specific implementation example of a method based on an abnormal warning system of an urban rail braking energy feedback device based on Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2; Figure 4This is a second flow chart of the method based on the abnormal warning system of the urban rail braking energy feedback device proposed in this embodiment;
[0071] In the specific implementation example, Figure 4 As shown, the method includes the following steps:
[0072] Step 1: The temperature measuring device outside the air inlet collects the temperature information of the air inlet. The temperature processing unit receives the information and converts it into an analog value T aiout1 The data is uploaded to the data collection unit, and the temperature measurement device inside the air inlet collects the relevant information and converts it into analog value T by the temperature processing unit. aiin1 , and upload it to the monitoring unit. aiout1 and T aiin1 The difference exceeds the preset T ai_max , it is determined that the internal environment of the energy feedback device is abnormal, and an early warning of the abnormal internal environment of the energy feedback device is issued.
[0073] Step 2: Assume that a certain urban rail line has N substations equipped with energy feedback devices. The remote monitoring platform collects the temperature of the air inlet outside the energy feedback device of each substation as T aiout1 ~T aioutN If the temperature data T of a certain energy feedback device aiout and the average temperature T outside the air inlet aiout_avg The difference is greater than the preset maximum value T aiout_max , it is determined that there is a certain abnormality in the external environment of the energy feedback device, and an early warning of the abnormality of the external environment of the energy feedback device is issued.
[0074] Step 3: The energy feedback device will be configured with M IGBT power modules according to the size of its power peak. The temperature measurement device on the IGBT power module sends the received information to the temperature receiving unit, which then converts it into an analog value T igbt1 ~T igbtM Then send it to the monitoring unit. If the temperature data T igbt1 and the average temperature T of the IGBT power module igbt_avg The difference is greater than the preset T igbt_max , it is determined that the IGBT power module is abnormal or the energy feedback device load is unbalanced. At the same time, the monitoring unit receives the temperature data T of the IGBT power module. igbt1 ~T igbtM , and record the corresponding time points synchronously, and then fit the corresponding temperature rise curve according to different power modules. Then calculate the temperature change rate S of the IGBT power module igbt1 ~S igbtM and with preset S igbt_max Compare, if a module has Sigbt ≥S igbt_max , indicating that the module's temperature rise rate is abnormal, which means that there is an abnormality in the heat dissipation of the IGBT power module and a corresponding alarm message is issued. Otherwise, the temperature rise rate is within the normal range.
[0075] Step 4: The wind speed transmitter at the air inlet collects wind speed information and converts it into analog WS in After that, it is uploaded to the monitoring unit. The current measuring device of the fan at the outlet measures the operating current I fan Upload to the monitoring unit in real time. The speed measuring device used to measure the speed of the fan blades will measure the speed of the blades S fan Upload to the monitoring unit. The monitoring unit converts the fan operating current into the corresponding blade speed S fan_I And the wind speed WS at the corresponding speed out_I The monitoring unit converts the fan blade speed into the corresponding wind speed WS out_S If there is a blade speed S converted from the fan current fan_I , and the blade speed S fan The difference is greater than the preset S fan_max , it means that the fan itself may have problems such as failure, aging, serious dust accumulation on the blades, etc., and a fan failure warning is issued. Otherwise, it means that the fan itself is working normally. out_S With WS in The difference exceeds the preset S in_max , it means that the filter at the air inlet may be clogged and an early warning of filter clogging will be issued.
[0076] Step 5: The temperature measuring device at the air outlet obtains relevant data T out1 After that, the data is uploaded to the temperature receiving device and then uploaded to the monitoring unit. The remote monitoring platform collects the outlet temperature of the energy feedback device of each substation as T out1 ~T outN The energy feedback device outlet motor measures the blade speed S fan , and the corresponding wind speed WS is calculated by the monitoring unit out_S When the remote monitoring platform determines that the urban rail line is in operation, the outlet temperature T out1 The average outlet temperature of all energy feedback devices in this line is T out_avg The difference exceeds the preset T out_max , and WS out_S At the highest speed, it means that the overall operating temperature of the energy feedback device is high and a corresponding warning is issued. out_S If the fan is not running at the highest level and the warning in step 4 does not occur, it is determined that the fan control system is abnormal and the fan operation cannot be adjusted according to the corresponding working conditions of the energy feedback device, and a fault warning of the fan control system is issued.
[0077] Step 6: When steps 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 occur, the monitoring unit will simultaneously transmit the internal environment alarm of the device, the external environment alarm of the device, the abnormal heat dissipation warning of the IGBT power module, the load imbalance warning of the IGBT power module, the filter blockage warning, the abnormal temperature rise warning of the IGBT power module, the abnormal aging warning of the fan, the abnormal warning of the fan control system, and the long-term high-load warning of the energy feedback device to the second monitoring module (failure model calculation unit), so that the failure model calculation unit can automatically replace the failure model of the module after experiencing different abnormalities. As an exemplary illustration, the failure model is a neural network model, and the parameters of the failure model will change after experiencing different abnormalities.
[0078] Step 7: The current transformer of the IGBT module measures the relevant parameters I M After that, the monitoring unit draws the current real-time action curve I curM Through the neural network in the monitoring unit, I curM and I curM_std The two curves are compared. At the same time, the voltage transformer of the IGBT module measures the relevant parameters V M After that, the monitoring unit draws the voltage real-time action curve V curM . The neural network in the monitoring unit will curM The VcurM_std curve is compared with the VcurM_std curve. If the difference between the two curves exceeds a preset value, the data is input into the failure model. The failure model then performs a self-check and proactively reports IGBT module failure information. It also automatically switches the IGBT module operating mode to prevent further damage. The failure model also outputs different IGBT module failure results based on the different anomalies the IGBT module experiences.
[0079] The braking energy regeneration device is a device that converts electrical energy from AC to DC. It absorbs the regenerative braking energy of urban rail vehicles and inverts it into AC power with the same frequency and phase as the grid voltage, sending it back to the grid. IGBT power module: Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor; a composite, fully controlled, voltage-driven power semiconductor device composed of a BJT (bipolar junction transistor) and a MOS (insulated gate field-effect transistor).
[0080] The key component of the regenerative braking system is the IGBT module. This high-power switching device absorbs regenerative braking energy and inverts it into AC power with the same frequency and phase as the grid voltage, sending it back to the grid. This simultaneously processes the regenerative energy and stabilizes the DC traction grid voltage. However, due to the operating characteristics of the IGBT module, its peak power can reach 9 to 12MW, which generates a significant amount of heat. This accumulation of heat in a short period of time can cause significant damage to the IGBT itself. Each high temperature exposure also causes an irreversible, nonlinear reduction in the lifespan of the IGBT module, leading to failure or even explosion. To address this issue, two approaches can be taken. First, ensure that the cooling system of the IGBT module in the regenerative braking system is functioning properly to reduce the module's high-temperature operating conditions. Second, the device can automatically detect fault conditions in the IGBT module, providing a warning and switching the module's operating mode.
[0081] Based on the above analysis, to ensure that the IGBT module operates without serious consequences in urban rail brake energy regeneration systems, it is necessary to synchronize module heat dissipation anomaly warnings with fault self-diagnosis. Currently, heat dissipation for IGBT modules in urban rail brake energy regeneration systems is primarily provided by the heat dissipation module, fan, air duct, air outlet, and filter. Existing high-speed cooling fans are often forced into a state of forced operation. Long-term high-speed operation can accelerate fan aging. Therefore, the health of the cooling fan is critical to the proper operation of the cooling system. Furthermore, because PM10 dust and other pollutants are often present in substations, dust filters are installed at the air inlets of the fan ducts to prevent dust from entering the equipment. Therefore, ensuring the cleanliness of the filters is also a crucial component in maintaining the cooling system. The operating condition of the IGBT is primarily reflected by its electrical parameter curve during operation. Therefore, transformers are installed at the input and output terminals of the IGBT module to plot the operating condition curves and perform analysis and self-diagnosis. In summary, the combined effect of these two measures can systematically reduce the risk of failure in urban rail brake energy regeneration systems.
[0082] As urban rail lines continue to expand, the more operational and maintenance equipment and data they collect, the more challenging their operation and management becomes. Therefore, critical primary equipment, ensuring smooth urban rail operation, requires an intelligent system capable of providing early warnings based on temperature anomalies. This system and method enables real-time online monitoring of the energy feedback device during operation and, based on temperature and wind speed information, provides early warnings of potential anomalies in the cooling system of the key IGBT module. Simultaneously, a local failure model is established, along with a failure model update mechanism. This enables real-time self-testing of the IGBT module and automatically switches its operating mode, mitigating potential losses.
