Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fault detection methods for photovoltaic storage and distribution systems, and more specifically, to a fault detection method for photovoltaic storage and distribution systems based on discrete wavelet transform. Background Art
[0002] Photovoltaic power generation, energy storage technologies, and DC power distribution are gaining widespread application in building power systems, forming a "PV-storage-DC-flexible" power distribution system that integrates power generation, storage, transmission, and flexible consumption. This system offers advantages such as compact structure, rapid response, and flexible energy management, making it a key technological path toward building electrification and low-carbon energy production.
[0003] However, due to the complex system structure and diverse operating modes, PV-storage-direct-flexible power distribution systems are susceptible to faults such as equipment aging, short circuits, and grounding during operation. Failure to promptly identify and isolate faults can lead to system voltage instability, power quality degradation, and even power outages. Therefore, research on efficient and reliable fault detection and location technologies is crucial to ensuring the safe operation of these systems.
[0004] Currently, most fault detection and protection methods rely on solutions from high-voltage direct current (HVDC) or low-voltage alternating current (LVAC) distribution systems. These methods suffer from the following drawbacks: First, the voltage and current signals in PV-storage systems lack power frequency characteristics, making traditional frequency-domain analysis methods difficult to apply and resulting in poor fault identification accuracy. Second, due to the short lines and low impedance of the system, traditional impedance-based or traveling-wave location methods cannot accurately locate the fault area. Therefore, a new fault detection method for PV-storage direct current (DC-FL) distribution systems that combines rapid fault detection with regional location is urgently needed.
[0005] In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a solution. Summary of the Invention

[0026] The following will provide a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] Example 1, Figure 1 The present invention provides a method for detecting faults in a photovoltaic power storage and distribution system, comprising the following steps:
[0028] S1: In the photovoltaic storage and distribution system, several signal detection points are set up to collect the system electrical quantity signals, and the system electrical quantity signals are divided into time windows.
[0029] In this embodiment, the electrical quantity signals are current and voltage signals;
[0030] The time window division specifically includes:
[0031] Wavelet transform experiments were performed on the collected signals in different time windows to obtain the characteristic expression of the signal and the wavelet transform calculation rate. The wavelet transform method was referenced from J. PFV. Discrete Wavelet Transformations: An Elementary Approach with Applications[M]. John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
[0032] The time window size is determined based on the feature expression and calculation rate.
[0033] It should be noted that the feature expression degree is evaluated by analyzing the change amplitude and stability of the wavelet coefficients in the signal after wavelet transformation, specifically including calculating the standard deviation and amplitude change rate of the wavelet coefficients;
[0034] The calculation rate is measured by the time required to calculate each window and the complexity of signal processing. Specifically, when the calculation rate is too high, it means that the window is too long, resulting in calculation delay;
[0035] The optimal time window size is determined by combining feature expression and calculation rate with experimental data.
[0036] The specific calculation formulas for the standard deviation and amplitude change rate of the wavelet coefficients are as follows:
[0037]
[0038]
[0039] in, is the i-th wavelet coefficient, is the mean of the wavelet coefficients, is the number of sampled data, is the standard deviation of the wavelet coefficients; and are the maximum and minimum values in the wavelet coefficient sequence D, respectively. is the rate of change of the amplitude of the wavelet coefficients.
[0040] In this embodiment, wavelet transform experiments are performed on the same voltage fault signal with different window lengths. The experimental results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown in the figure, when the window length is 10 sampling points, the characteristics of the wavelet coefficients after wavelet transformation are not obvious, the standard deviation is about 0.0125, the amplitude change rate is about 0.09, the characteristic volatility is insufficient, and it is difficult to reflect the non-stationary characteristics of the fault disturbance. When the window length is 50 sampling points, the transformation effect is significantly enhanced, the standard deviation of the wavelet coefficients is about 0.0841, the amplitude change rate is increased to 0.53, the fault mutation characteristics are clear, the signal-to-noise ratio is high, and the computing resource overhead is within a controllable range. When the window length is further increased to 100 and 200 sampling points, although the standard deviation reaches 0.0895 and 0.0912 respectively, and the amplitude change rate remains in the range of 0.51–0.55, due to the excessively long window, the average time taken for each wavelet decomposition calculation increases to 3.1ms and 6.7ms respectively, which is not conducive to online real-time processing. After comprehensive consideration, this embodiment selects 50 as the signal window length for simulation and subsequent steps, that is, the signal analyzed in each sampling period is a collection of 50 sampling values in the past 50ms.
[0041] S2, using discrete wavelet transform to decompose the electrical quantity signal in the time window to obtain optimal high-frequency wavelet coefficients.
[0042] In this embodiment, before the discrete wavelet transform in S2, to avoid distortion caused by edge effects, boundary compensation processing is also performed on the electrical quantity signal using a symmetric extension method. The symmetric extension method can avoid the introduction of discontinuous boundaries in a non-fault state, thereby enhancing the robustness of the transformation result.
[0043] The specific steps of obtaining the optimal high-frequency wavelet coefficients are as follows:
[0044] The electrical quantity signal in the current time window is subjected to wavelet decomposition and phase space reconstruction to obtain the chaotic dynamics eigenvalue. The optimal wavelet decomposition level is obtained by searching the parameter space based on the particle swarm algorithm with the maximum chaotic dynamics eigenvalue as the optimization target.
[0045] Based on the optimal wavelet decomposition level, discrete wavelet transform is performed on the electrical quantity signal within the time window to obtain optimal high-frequency wavelet coefficients for subsequent energy analysis and fault identification.
[0046] The electrical quantity signal in the current time window is subjected to wavelet decomposition and phase space reconstruction to obtain chaotic dynamics eigenvalues, and the optimal wavelet decomposition level is obtained by searching the parameter space based on the particle swarm algorithm with the maximum chaotic dynamics eigenvalue as the optimization target. The specific steps are as follows:
[0047] S21, for the current signal x(t) in a sliding time window with a sampling frequency of 1kHz and a length of 50 points, set the wavelet basis function Ψ and the number of decomposition layers Combine to form a candidate configuration:
[0048]
[0049] Based on candidate configuration , perform discrete wavelet transform (DWT) on the current signal x(t) and get the corresponding k High-frequency wavelet coefficients of layer DWT , the specific formula is as follows:
[0050]
[0051] S22, for each By setting the chaos embedding parameters such as chaos embedding dimension m and time delay τ, the phase space is reconstructed to form the phase space trajectory. The specific formula is as follows:
[0052]
[0053] The output is a set of chaotic phase space trajectories ;
[0054] S23, for the chaotic phase space trajectory set Each phase space trajectory , calculate the chaotic dynamics characteristic index. In this embodiment, the chaotic dynamics characteristic index is the Lyapunov index, and the specific calculation formula is as follows:
[0055]
[0056] in, is the nearest point in the phase space of the phase space trajectory of the kth candidate wavelet channel; is the local evolution time step; is the time window length.
[0057] In this paper, the Lyapunov exponent is used as a chaotic characteristic indicator to evaluate the stability and dynamic sensitivity of the nonlinear trajectory corresponding to each wavelet decomposition channel. The Lyapunov exponent reflects the exponential growth rate of the perturbation over time in phase space and is a core indicator of the chaotic complexity of a signal.
[0058] Compared with traditional energy indicators or transformation coefficient modulus statistics, the Lyapunov exponent is more suitable for transient response analysis under dynamic disturbances. It can effectively enhance the system's ability to recognize early signs of electrical faults, improve the adaptability and generalization ability of decomposition level selection, and thus improve the sensitivity and accuracy of fault detection.
[0059] S24, using the particle swarm optimization algorithm, with the maximum Lyapunov exponent as the objective function, in the parameter space ( , , ) Search for the optimal wavelet decomposition level and optimal chaotic embedding dimension and optimal time delay , the specific formula is as follows:
[0060] Obj( , , ) = max( )
[0061] In this embodiment, the sampled current signal x(t) is subjected to the above steps S21-S25, and the result is as follows: Figure 3 shown. Figure 3 Shows the number of wavelet decomposition layers , Chaos Embedding Dimension and time delay The changes of Lyapunov exponent in three-dimensional parameter space. The analysis results show that when Therefore, this embodiment preferably adopts a layer of wavelet decomposition and uses the extracted high-frequency wavelet coefficients as the basis for subsequent energy analysis.
[0062] It should be noted that the optimal chaotic embedding dimension and optimal time delay , used to reconstruct the phase space of the feedback signal. During the search process, the choice of embedding dimension and time delay parameters directly affects the stability and nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the signal's phase space trajectory, thereby affecting the calculation of the Lyapunov exponent. Through particle swarm optimization, the optimal chaotic embedding dimension and time delay parameters for the current signal characteristics were ultimately determined, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the maximum Lyapunov exponent.
[0063] The discrete wavelet transform uses the 4th order Daubechies (db4) wavelet as the wavelet basis function;
[0064] The db4 wavelet is an orthogonal, compactly supported wavelet with strong mutation detection capability, suitable for high-frequency feature extraction of nonlinear transient signals. Compared with wavelets such as Haar, the db4 wavelet has better smoothness while ensuring high-frequency resolution, facilitating subsequent energy calculation.
[0065] In this embodiment, a sliding analysis window containing 50 sampling points is preferably extracted within three consecutive sampling periods after the fault occurs, and wavelet transform analysis is performed on the data within each window. Since the sampling frequency is 1kHz, each analysis window covers a 50ms period. The three windows correspond to historical data segments collected 1ms, 2ms, and 3ms after the fault occurs. By continuously analyzing these three windows, the dynamic changing trends of the fault signal characteristics can be observed, improving the robustness and accuracy of the fault judgment criteria.
[0066] It should be noted that compared with traditional Fourier transform, the present invention can more accurately extract fault features in non-stationary signals through discrete wavelet transform. Combined with subsequent energy mutation analysis, it shows good real-time performance and recognition accuracy in both simulation and hardware experiments.
[0067] S3, calculating the signal energy coefficient based on the optimal high-frequency wavelet coefficient, and calculating the energy mutation coefficient as the energy mutation feature of the signal through the ratio with the preset normal state energy value.
[0068] In a photovoltaic-storage-DC flexible AC / DC system, when a fault occurs, its voltage and current signals are often accompanied by obvious high-frequency disturbances, which manifests as rich transient fault information. Discrete wavelet transform can decompose the original signal into multi-scale frequency bands, among which the high-frequency components can better reflect the characteristics of drastic changes caused by sudden events. However, the wavelet coefficients themselves are discrete sequences, and it is difficult to directly construct a stability criterion. Therefore, this embodiment further introduces the energy calculation of high-frequency wavelet coefficients as a descriptive indicator to effectively extract the fault mutation characteristics contained in the signal. By performing a ratio operation on this energy value and the baseline energy under normal operating conditions, a quantitative "energy mutation coefficient" can be formed as the core parameter for fault judgment.
[0069] The calculation formula of the signal energy coefficient is as follows:
[0070]
[0071] in, represents the i-th optimal high-frequency wavelet coefficient;
[0072] The calculation formula of the energy mutation coefficient is as follows:
[0073]
[0074] in, is the signal energy coefficient value calculated under normal conditions, a voltage and current signal calculated from the two-terminal topology simulation model. As shown in Table 1; For the n Periodic real-time signal energy coefficient value; is the energy mutation coefficient of the real-time signal in the nth cycle.
[0075] Table 1
[0076]
[0077] In this embodiment, the corresponding voltage and current signals are calculated for different faults. , taking the window length as 50, analyzing the value of the energy mutation coefficient in three sampling cycles (sampling cycle is 1ms) after the fault occurs, the simulation and calculation results are shown in Table 2:
[0078] Table 2
[0079]
[0080] S4, based on the changing trend and value of the energy mutation characteristics and combined with the preset fault reference value, builds a fault identification criterion to detect and determine whether a fault occurs.
[0081] In this embodiment, the fault identification criteria are as follows:
[0082]
[0083] in, is the set normal state energy mutation coefficient;
[0084] The fault identification criteria are constructed by combining the preset fault reference values to detect and determine whether a fault has occurred, as follows:
[0085] From the analysis of the fault reference value data in Table 2, it can be seen that when a fault occurs, the magnitude of the energy mutation coefficient of the voltage and current signals of the fault pole can reach 10e6 and 10e7, while the magnitude of the non-fault pole signals can reach 10e6 and 10e7. The magnitude is not as high as this. In addition, the data within 3ms after the fault will first increase and then decrease.
[0086] Therefore, if Figure 4 As shown, the real-time signal energy mutation coefficient 1ms after the fault Greater than , real-time signal energy mutation coefficient 2ms after fault Greater than And it is greater than the real-time signal energy mutation coefficient 3ms after the fault When , it is determined that the line at this point has a fault;
[0087] If only Greater than , it is determined that the line at this point has no fault but has an abnormality, and an abnormal signal is issued.
[0088] The fault identification criterion is constructed based on the changing trend and value of the energy mutation characteristic in combination with the preset fault reference value, and after detecting and judging whether a fault has occurred, the step of performing a fault type identification step is also included if a fault occurs;
[0089] The fault type identification step is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the details are as follows:
[0090] When the electrical quantity signals of the DC positive and negative poles of the detection point both meet the fault identification criteria, the fault type is determined to be a bipolar short circuit fault;
[0091] When only one pole's electrical quantity signal meets the fault identification criteria, the fault type is determined to be a single-pole grounding fault, and the fault type is further determined to be a positive grounding fault or a negative grounding fault based on the polarity of the signal.
[0092] S5, constructing an energy direction criterion based on the signal energy coefficient and the sign information of the optimal high-frequency wavelet coefficient, and determining the fault area according to the energy direction judgment results of several detection points.
[0093] In this embodiment, the specific method for constructing the energy direction criterion is as follows:
[0094] Based on the sign information of the signal energy coefficient and the optimal high-frequency wavelet coefficient, the energy mutation intensity coefficient of the electrical quantity signal corresponding to different fault types is calculated;
[0095] The sign of the energy mutation intensity coefficient is judged. If the result is positive, it is a reverse mutation, and the signal flow direction is the specified reverse direction. If the result is negative, it is a forward mutation, and the signal flow direction is the specified positive direction.
[0096] The specific calculation formula of the energy mutation intensity coefficient is as follows:
[0097]
[0098] in, Indicates taking Symbols;
[0099] In a specific embodiment, for different fault corresponding current signals, the corresponding , Taking the window length as 50, the value of the current energy mutation coefficient in the three sampling cycles after the fault occurs is analyzed. The fault reference values of the simulation and calculation results are shown in Table 3:
[0100] Table 3
[0101]
[0102] Combined with the rules shown in Table 3, the criterion for the energy flow direction of the fault signal of the single-ended measurement and control device can be defined as follows:
[0103] Set 1ms, 2ms, 3ms after the fault They are , , , for sgn( ) is used for judgment. If the result is 1, it is a reverse mutation and the signal flow direction is the specified reverse direction. If the result is -1, the signal flow direction is the specified positive direction. In addition, the following criteria need to be added to prevent misjudgment:
[0104]
[0105] in is the set normal state energy mutation intensity coefficient; in summary, the signal energy flow direction judgment process is as follows Figure 6 As shown, specifically:
[0106] After a fault occurs, determine whether If so, continue checking and If the signs are the same, continue to check and Are the signs the same? If they are the same, continue to judge whether If so, then according to If the fault direction is determined by It is a reverse mutation, and the direction of signal flow is the opposite of the prescribed direction. The signal flow direction is the specified positive direction.
[0107] Furthermore, the fault area identification is performed based on the energy flow direction criterion, and the judgment steps are as follows:
[0108] S51, by setting detection points at both ends of each branch node of the photovoltaic storage distribution system and installing measurement and control devices, the distribution grid topology is divided into several fault identification areas, each area consisting of a pair of adjacent detection points;
[0109] S52, after the detection point identifies the fault signal, the signal flow direction is determined according to the constructed energy direction criterion;
[0110] S53: If the signal flow directions of the detection points at both ends of a certain identification area are both directed to the interior of the area, it is determined that the fault occurs in the area, and the area is marked as a fault area.
[0111] It should be noted that after identifying the direction of energy flow, each measurement and control device in the power grid system can obtain the fault point direction information. Each fault identification area divided by the measurement and control device determines whether the fault occurs in this area based on the fault direction information calculated by the measurement and control devices at both ends. If the fault occurs in this judgment area, the following will occur Figure 6 Situation shown: The fault directions determined by the measurement and control devices at 2 on the left and 3 on the right are opposite, pointing to the area within 1.
[0112] It should be noted that after the fault area is obtained, the location of the fault area in the entire photovoltaic storage direct-flexible power distribution system can be obtained based on the number or corresponding position of the measurement and control device or the fault judgment area.
