Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of multi-physical field coupling simulation and tunnel cable, and particularly relates to a cable temperature simulation model construction method and system based on multi-field coupling. BACKGROUND
[0002] As an important medium for power transmission, the stable working state of high-voltage cable is crucial to guarantee the power supply quality and safety of the power system. However, long-time running high-voltage cable is easily affected by factors such as insulation aging, mechanical damage, poor installation quality, etc., leading to faults in the intermediate joint part and the conductor, and even explosion accidents in severe cases. According to statistics, the intermediate joint fault accounts for about 63% of the main causes of high-voltage cable fire accidents. When the high-voltage cable fails, the leakage current increases, causing the conductor loss to intensify, and the heat generated at the fault point accumulates, causing the temperature to rise. This high temperature not only damages the insulation layer of the cable, but also endangers the surrounding facilities, especially in relatively closed environments such as cable tunnels and trenches. Once an explosion occurs, it will pose a serious safety hazard.
[0003] Current high-voltage cable temperature monitoring technologies mainly include infrared imaging, point temperature sensing, and distributed optical fiber sensing, etc. However, these methods can usually only monitor the external temperature of the cable, and the monitoring accuracy and spatial resolution are limited. Point sensors have monitoring blind spots and cannot achieve high-precision distributed monitoring of the internal conductor temperature of the cable. Moreover, they have limited efficiency when facing randomly distributed fault locations, making it difficult to achieve comprehensive monitoring and early warning. Distributed optical fiber sensing can solve the problem of comprehensive monitoring of randomly distributed fault locations, but it cannot achieve internal temperature monitoring of the cable.

According to the physical field characteristics (such as temperature gradient, electromagnetic field intensity), the regions are divided, and finer grids are set in key regions (such as conductor surface and insulation layer), and coarser grids are used in other regions.

[0058] The control equation of the high-voltage cable conductor part with load current is:

[0060] The control equation of the high-voltage cable conductor part without load current is:
[0061]
[0062] where, is the Laplace operator, μ is the magnetic permeability, A is the magnetic vector potential, J e is the external excitation current density, ω is the angular frequency, σ is the electrical conductivity, j is the imaginary unit; a voltage excitation of 110 kV is applied to the conductor, electromagnetic field simulation results are obtained, two-dimensional Maxwell simulation can simplify the calculation and save time, and can accurately reflect the electromagnetic characteristics of the high-voltage cable, because the cable cross section is symmetrical, only two-dimensional cross section needs to be calculated to meet the modeling requirements.
[0063] S3: Taking the Joule loss power as a heat source term, combining heat conduction, heat convection and heat radiation mechanisms, a three-dimensional steady-state temperature field control equation is constructed, and a three-dimensional temperature distribution of the cable and the tunnel environment is solved.
