Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of power system distribution network relay protection, and particularly relates to an overhead line tree contact fault detection method based on zero sequence current segmentation characteristics. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a power system distribution network, an overhead line is an important part of power transmission, and its safe operation is directly related to the stability and reliability of the entire power grid. However, in mountainous areas, due to the natural growth of vegetation, the safety distance between the overhead line and the trees may be reduced due to the growth of trees, or even directly contacted, thereby causing single-phase tree contact fault. In the early stage of this fault, due to the high contact impedance between the tree and the line, the fault current is often weak, and the characteristic is short-lived, so that the traditional detection method based on the high-impedance grounding fault model cannot effectively identify it.

[0003] Tree contact fault is a dynamic and slowly changing process. With the continuation of the fault, the tree may be carbonized under the action of the arc, or the internal water may evaporate due to high temperature, resulting in a gradual decrease in contact impedance, and the fault current characteristics also evolve. In this process, if the fault cannot be detected and handled in time, the high temperature generated by the continuous leakage current or intermittent arc may ignite the surrounding vegetation, thereby causing forest fires, which poses a major threat to the safety of the power grid, the ecological environment, and people's life and property.

[0004] Existing fault detection methods mostly rely on a single fault characteristic quantity, such as transient characteristics or steady-state characteristics. These methods often have poor anti-interference ability, low initial sensitivity, and other problems when facing complex and variable fault environments, and are difficult to achieve early warning and accurate identification of tree contact faults. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a method that can accurately and reliably detect overhead line tree contact faults by deeply studying the dynamic characteristics of tree contact faults in the long-term development process, which can improve the safety and stability of the power system.

[0045] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the related drawings. The preferred embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings. However, the present application can be realized in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the application more thorough and comprehensive.

The terminology used in the description herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0047] Embodiment: The present application provides an overhead line tree contact fault detection method based on zero sequence current segmentation characteristics, as shown in the method applied to the terminal for example, it can be understood that the method can also be applied to the server, but also can be applied to the system including the terminal and the server, and is realized through the interaction of the terminal and the server, including the following steps: Figure 1

[0048] Step 1, zero sequence current effective value signal decomposition: the zero sequence current effective value signal is decomposed by using variational mode decomposition (VMD), and a plurality of intrinsic mode functions (IMF) are obtained; the cosine similarity of each IMF component is calculated, and the IMF with the maximum cosine similarity is selected as the most similar mode.

[0049] The zero sequence current effective value signal is analyzed in depth by using variational mode decomposition (VMD) technology, and m intrinsic mode functions (IMF) are obtained by m-layer decomposition, which are respectively denoted as IMF1, IMF2, …, IMF m .

[0050] The above steps are aimed at decomposing the complex zero sequence current signal into a plurality of modal components with different frequency characteristics, so as to more accurately capture the fault characteristics in the signal.

[0051] Specifically, the step 1 includes the following specific steps:

[0052] Step 1.1, the zero sequence current effective value signal is decomposed by using variational mode decomposition (VMD) m Layer decomposition, obtaining m Intrinsic mode functions (IMF), denoted as IMF1, IMF2, …, IMF m ; the layered analysis of the signal is realized; ​

[0053] Step 1.2, calculate the cosine similarity of each IMF component and the original signal respectively, select the IMF with the maximum cosine similarity as the most similar mode, and the cosine similarity is calculated as follows:

[0054] ;

[0055] In the formula, cos( θ ) is the cosine similarity, n is the number of sampling points, IMF p ( n ) is the p th IMF component, p =1,2,…, m , S ( n ) is the original signal, IMF pq ( n ) is the current value of the p th sampling point in the q th IMF component, S q ( n ) is the current value of the q th sampling point in the original signal, q =1,2,…, n ;

[0056] By calculating the cosine similarity of each IMF component and the original signal, the IMF component that best matches the characteristics of the original signal is further selected, that is, the IMF with the maximum cosine similarity is selected as the most similar mode.

[0057] The calculation of the cosine similarity takes into account the current value of the signal at each sampling point, and by quantifying the similarity between the IMF component and the original signal, it ensures that the selected mode can accurately reflect the key characteristics of the original signal, providing a reliable foundation for subsequent fault stage division and feature extraction.

[0058] Step 2, fault process stage division: local extreme point detection is performed on the most similar mode to obtain the extreme value sequence {P1, P2, …, P k}; according to the distribution of extreme points, the most similar mode is divided into four fault development stages: interval represents the tree contact stage, interval represents the water evaporation stage, interval represents the carbonization formation stage, interval represents the open fire discharge stage.

[0059] Specifically, in the fault process stage division, first, local extreme point detection is performed on the most similar mode to generate the extreme value sequence {P1, P2, …, P k} and then according to the distribution law of extreme points, the fault development process is divided into four continuous physical stages: tree line contact stage (characterizing weak current fluctuations of initial contact), water evaporation stage (reflecting water vaporization caused by temperature rise of contact point), carbonization formation stage (reflecting resistance change of high-temperature carbonization of tree tissue), and open fire discharge stage (representing severe current release caused by continuous arc ignition).

[0060] The above division accurately locates the dynamic evolution path of the fault from germination to deterioration through the time distribution of extreme points and signal characteristics.

[0061] The stage division breaks through the dependence of traditional methods on single fault characteristics through characteristic analysis driven by physical processes, and realizes dynamic tracking of the whole life cycle of tree contact fault.

[0062] Specifically, the extreme point of the tree line contact stage marks the starting time of the fault, the extreme density change of the water evaporation stage reveals the decreasing trend of contact impedance, the extreme fluctuation of the carbonization formation stage reflects the mutation of resistance, and the extreme cluster of the open fire discharge stage corresponds to the outbreak of high-temperature arc.

[0063] This multi-stage analysis not only improves the sensitivity of fault detection (can identify weak contact signals), but also enhances the accuracy of fault location (through stage characteristic matching), providing a phased and differentiated basis for the active defense of power systems.

[0064] Step 3, most similar modal signal feature extraction: for the tree line contact stage , it is divided into continuous subintervals by equal time window ; according to the standard deviation formula, the standard deviation of the most similar modal current waveform in each subinterval is calculated respectively, and the standard deviation feature sequence is constructed to quantify the discrete feature of the signal amplitude of the tree line contact stage ; for the water evaporation stage , it is divided into b equal length subintervals by equal time window ; according to the slope formula, the slope of the most similar modal current waveform in each subinterval is calculated respectively, and the slope feature sequence is generated to represent the dynamic trend of signal change in the water evaporation stage .

[0065] Specifically, the step 3 includes the following specific steps:

[0066] Step 3.1, for the tree line contact stage , it is divided into continuous sub-intervals , the time window length is ; the standard deviation of the current waveform in each sub-interval is calculated respectively to construct a standard deviation feature sequence for quantifying the tree line contact stage the discreteness feature of signal amplitude; the time window length is:

[0067] ;

[0068] The standard deviation calculation formula is:

[0069] ;

[0070] In the formula, n is the number of sampling points, is the current value of the most similar modal signal corresponding to the q th sampling point, is the mean value of the most similar modal signal current, ;

[0071] Step 3.1 focuses on the tree line contact stage, which is divided into continuous sub-intervals by equal time window segmentation, and the standard deviation of the current waveform in each sub-interval is calculated to construct a standard deviation feature sequence to quantify the discreteness of signal amplitude; because the initial fault current of the tree line contact is weak and the fluctuation is random, the standard deviation can effectively capture the discreteness of the current amplitude, reflecting the dynamic characteristics of the unstable contact;

[0072] Step 3.2, for the water evaporation stage , it is divided into b equal-length sub-intervals by equal time window, the time window length is , by calculating the time domain slope of the waveform in each sub-interval, a slope feature sequence is generated to represent the dynamic trend of signal change in the water evaporation stage ; the time window length is:

[0073] ;

[0074] The slope calculation formula is:

[0075] ;

[0076] In the formula, is the change amount of the most similar modal signal current value in the j th segment, is the time j of the tChange j =1,2,…, b .

[0077] Step 3.2 focuses on the moisture evaporation stage. It also uses an equal time window to divide the signal into b sub-intervals, calculates the time-domain slope of the waveform in each sub-interval, and generates a slope feature sequence to characterize the dynamic trend of signal changes. As the fault develops, moisture evaporation leads to a decrease in contact impedance, and the change in current slope can reflect the aggravation of the fault. The slope feature sequence can accurately characterize this process.

[0078] This step, through phased feature extraction, achieves a refined characterization of the dynamic evolution of tree-contact faults; the standard deviation feature sequence of the tree-line contact stage can sensitively identify weak initial fault signals, avoiding interference from load fluctuations or noise; the slope feature sequence of the moisture evaporation stage accurately reflects the deepening process of the fault through dynamic trend analysis; the combination of the two forms a multi-dimensional, hierarchical fault feature system, which not only improves the sensitivity of fault detection (capturing weak contact signals) but also enhances the reliability of fault identification (verified through dynamic trends).

[0079] The aforementioned feature extraction method provides a quantitative basis for subsequent two-parameter fusion criteria, significantly improving the accuracy and robustness of early warning of tree-touching faults on overhead lines.

[0080] Step 4, Overhead line tree contact fault detection: Based on the standard deviation feature sequence extracted in Step 3. With slope feature sequence A two-parameter fusion criterion is constructed; the criterion content is: when the tree line touches the stage All sub-intervals The standard deviation satisfies And the water evaporation stage All sub-intervals The slope satisfies If the above-ground line tree-line contact fault alarm is triggered, the line is considered to be in normal operating condition. and The threshold value is set.

[0081] Specifically, in step 4, the standard deviation feature sequence of the tree line contact stage extracted in step 3 is used... Slope characteristic sequence of water evaporation stage A two-parameter fusion criterion is constructed.

[0082] The specific criterion is: during the tree line contact stage. All sub-intervals Standard deviation All are greater than the set threshold (Reflecting a significant increase in signal amplitude dispersion), and the water evaporation stage All sub-intervals Slope k j are less than a set threshold (indicating that the signal change trend tends to be flat or declining), it is determined that the overhead line tree line contact fault occurs, and an alarm is triggered; if the above conditions are not met, it is determined that the line is in a normal operating state.

[0083] wherein, and determined by fault simulation and historical data statistics optimization, to balance the detection sensitivity and false alarm rate.

[0084] The dual-parameter fusion criterion realizes multi-dimensional verification of the tree contact fault by combining the static discrete feature (standard deviation) and the dynamic change trend (slope); the high standard deviation in the tree line contact stage can capture the random fluctuations of the initial weak fault and avoid load noise interference; the low slope in the water evaporation stage can verify the stability of the fault development and exclude transient interference; the synergistic effect of the two can significantly improve the accuracy and robustness of fault detection, reduce the false alarm risk of a single parameter criterion, and ensure the sensitive identification of early faults through threshold optimization, thereby providing a reliable and timely fault warning mechanism for the power system.

[0085] As can be seen from the above, the method realizes accurate layering of the fault signal through variational mode decomposition, combines phased feature extraction and dual-parameter fusion criterion, and constructs a complete closed loop from signal deconstruction to fault determination: the most relevant mode is selected by using VMD and cosine similarity to ensure the relevance of feature extraction; the signal discreteness is quantified by the standard deviation in the tree line contact stage, and the dynamic trend is described by the slope in the water evaporation stage, forming a multi-dimensional fault representation; finally, based on the dual-parameter collaborative threshold determination, the sensitivity and anti-interference ability of fault detection are effectively balanced; the scheme significantly improves the accuracy of early identification of overhead line tree contact faults, reduces the false alarm rate, and provides efficient and reliable fault warning and disposal basis for the power system.

[0086] The working principle of the overhead line tree contact fault detection method based on zero sequence current segmented features is as follows:

[0087] 1. Variational mode decomposition (VMD)

[0088] Variational mode decomposition (VMD) is a new multi-resolution adaptive non-recursive signal decomposition technology; multiple modal components can be extracted from the original signal at the same time, and the center frequency of each component is matched through iterative optimization; the main steps are as follows:

[0089] 1) Let the original signal decomposition bem a modal component, p =1,2,…, m , the first p modal component IMF p ( t ) is:

[0090] ;

[0091] wherein: A p ( t ) is an amplitude function; Φ p ( t ) is a phase function; IMF p is a decomposed modal component.

[0092] 2) Perform Hilbert transform, spectral modulation and gradient two-norm operation on each modal component in turn to estimate the bandwidth of each modal component, and construct a constraint variational model as:

[0093] ;

[0094] wherein: m is the number of decomposed modes (positive integer), IMF p , ω p correspond to the first p modal component and the center frequency after decomposition, is the Dirac function, is the convolution operator.

[0095] 3) Make full use of the advantages of quadratic penalty factor and Lagrange operator , and convert the above constrained variational problem into an unconstrained variational problem, that is:

[0096] ;

[0097] 4) Use the alternating direction multiplier method to iteratively solve the unconstrained variational problem, u i , ω i and The iteration process is:

[0098] ;

[0099] wherein: is the residual obtained by Wiener filtering; This represents the number of iterations. The centroid of the power spectrum of the current mode function; Update the step size for the Lagrange operator; Performing an inverse Fourier transform, its real part is... .

[0100] 2. Cosine similarity

[0101] Cosine similarity is a metric used to measure the similarity between two vectors, specifically the angle between them. It measures the similarity between two vectors and is defined as follows:

[0102] ;

[0103] In the formula, cos( θ () represents the cosine similarity. n The number of sampling points, IMF p ( n ) is the first p One IMF component, p =1,2,…, m , S ( n () represents the original signal, IMF pq ( n ) is the first p The first IMF component q The current value at each sampling point, S q ( n ) is the first in the original signal q Current values ​​at each sampling point q =1,2,…, n ;

[0104] The values ​​of cosine similarity have the following meanings: 1 indicates that the two vectors are exactly the same; 0 indicates that the two vectors are orthogonal, that is, they have no similarity; -1 indicates that the two vectors are completely opposite.

[0105] Application example: Using PSCAD to build a simulation model of a single-phase tree contact fault in a 10kV overhead line system without branches, such as... Figure 2 As shown; the system consists of four lines: It is a 25km pure overhead line. It is a 5km pure cable line. It is a hybrid line consisting of a 6km cable and a 10km overhead line. It is a hybrid line consisting of a 5km overhead line and a 4km cable. The parameters of the overhead line and the cable are shown in Table 1. The simulation system was used to simulate the tree contact fault of the overhead line. The total simulation time was 55s, and the early fault was set to occur at 0s, with the fault duration being 55s.

[0108] Simulation analysis

[0109] The simulation setting of the overhead line tree contact fault is specifically shown in Figure 2 If the overhead line tree contact fault is not disposed in time, it may cause the high-resistance short-circuit current to continue to flow, and in severe cases, it can cause the line protection to act, leading to outage, even causing equipment damage, system collapse, and even major safety accidents such as fire. Therefore, accurate modeling and real-time monitoring of TSF are crucial for improving the fault diagnosis capability of the power system and ensuring the safe and stable operation of power facilities; the overhead line tree contact fault is simulated and analyzed, the effective value of the zero-sequence current is extracted, the VMD is used to decompose the effective value of the zero-sequence current into two layers, and the decomposition result is shown in Figure 5 The cosine similarity of each IMF component and the original signal is calculated, the local features of the effective value of the zero-sequence current are removed, and the global feature change trend of the fault evolution process is accurately captured, and the cosine similarity results corresponding to the two modes are shown in Figure 6 Secondly, the most similar mode is subjected to local extreme point detection, and the fault development process is divided into four characteristic stages, namely, the tree line contact stage (0, 14.77s), the water evaporation stage (14.77s, 26.73s), the carbonization formation stage (26.73s, 29.61s), and the open fire discharge stage (29.61s, 55s); thirdly, the most similar mode signals of the tree line contact stage and the water evaporation stage are respectively divided into 3 small segments according to the time axis (the time window length of the tree line contact stage sub-interval is 4.92s, and the time window length of the water evaporation stage sub-interval is 3.98s), the standard deviation of each small segment in the tree line contact stage is calculated, and the slope of each small segment in the water evaporation stage is calculated, and the extreme point distribution of the most similar mode during the tree contact fault and the waveforms of the tree line contact stage segmentation and the water evaporation stage segmentation are shown in Figure 7 Finally, the standard deviation feature and the slope feature are used to construct a double-parameter fusion criterion: when the standard deviations of all sub-intervals in the tree line contact stage satisfy , and the slopes of all sub-intervals in the water evaporation stage satisfy , the overhead line tree line contact fault alarm is triggered; otherwise, it is determined that the line is in a normal operating state; 0 is a set threshold; taking the C-phase fault as an example, the analysis result is as follows:

[0110] The simulation result of the zero-sequence current effective value when the line is in a normal operating state is shown in Figure 3The simulation result of the zero sequence current effective value when a single-phase tree contact fault occurs at a distance of 10 km from the bus on the pure overhead line l1 is shown in Table 2. Figure 4 The detection result of the zero sequence current effective value is shown in Table 2.
