[0024] For further understanding of the test system for the braking condition of the deep-water power source provided by the application, refer to Figure 2 Fig. 2 is another structural schematic view of the test system for the braking condition of the deep-water power source provided by the embodiment of the application, in which the power simulation device 10, the braking simulation device 11, the test device 12 and a load 13 are further connected, wherein the load 13 comprises a hydraulic unit 124, a generator 125 and other equipment.

[0025] Specifically, the test system for the braking condition of the deep-water power source can be composed of the power simulation device 10, the braking simulation device 11, the test device 12 and the load 13, wherein the load 13 is connected with the power simulation device 10 and the braking simulation device 11, and the test device 12 is connected with the power simulation device 10 and the braking simulation device 11.

[0026] When the deep water power source braking condition test system is started, the power simulation device 10 is connected with the test device 12, the power simulation device 10 provides working kinetic energy to the load 13 to maintain normal operation of the load 13, and after a period of time of maintaining normal operation of the load 13, the deep water power source braking condition test system enters the energy consumption braking mode, at this time, the test device 12 disconnects the power simulation device 10, the test device 12 connects the braking simulation device 11, the braking simulation device 11 provides braking kinetic energy to the load 13, and after the load 13 is braked, the test device 12 collects the electric parameters output by the braking simulation device 11 to evaluate the overall system performance of the power source system in the braking condition, and further realizes accurate verification of the overall system performance of the underwater power source in the braking condition through simulation test.

[0027] In the embodiment, the power simulation device 10 comprises a variable frequency power supply 101 used for outputting three-phase voltage; the braking simulation device 11 comprises a direct current braking power supply 111 used for outputting direct current voltage, and the direct current braking voltage is 1100V, and in other embodiments, the direct current braking voltage can also be selected as other voltage values according to actual conditions.

[0028] And the electric motor 112 is further arranged in the power simulation device 10 and the braking simulation device 11, the electric motor 112 is selectively connected with the variable frequency power supply 101 or the direct current braking power supply 111, when the electric motor 112 is connected with the variable frequency power supply 101, the electric motor 112 receives the three-phase voltage output by the variable frequency power supply 101 and converts the three-phase voltage into working kinetic energy; when the electric motor 112 is connected with the direct current braking power supply 111, the electric motor 112 receives the direct current voltage output by the direct current braking power supply 111 and converts the direct current voltage into braking kinetic energy.

[0029] In the embodiment, the electric motor 112 in the power simulation device 10 and the braking simulation device 11 is the same electric motor 112, the electric motor 112 is selectively connected with the variable frequency power supply 101 or the direct current braking power supply 111 through the test device 12 to selectively output working function or braking kinetic energy. By arranging the power simulation device 10 and the braking simulation device 11, the braking condition of the deep water or underwater power source is simulated, the data collected in the simulation scene tends to the data collected in the actual scene, and the accuracy of data verification is ensured.

[0030] In the embodiment of the application, the test device 12 comprises a switching unit 121, an acquisition unit 122 and a control unit 123, wherein the switching unit 121 is selectively connected between the electric motor 112 and the variable frequency power supply 101 and the direct current braking power supply 111; the acquisition unit 122 is connected between the switching unit 121 and the electric motor 112; and the control unit 123 is connected with the switching unit 121 and the acquisition unit 122.

[0031] The switching unit 121 is used to switch working kinetic energy to braking kinetic energy, or to switch braking kinetic energy to working kinetic energy.

[0032] Optionally, the switching unit 121 can be a switching switch, such as a single-pole double-throw switch, circuit breaker, controllable switch, or selector.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the testing system for the braking condition of the deep-sea power source includes: a frequency converter 101, a DC braking power supply 111, a motor 112, and a switching unit 121. The switching unit 121 may include: a first input line 1211, a second input line 1212, a third input line 1213, a fourth input line 1214, a fifth input line 1215, a first output line 1216, a second output line 1217, a third output line 1218, a first switching switch 1219, a second switching switch 12110, and a third switching switch 12111.

[0034] Specifically, the first end of the first input line 1211 is connected to the first phase of the frequency converter 101, the first end of the second input line 1212 is connected to the second phase of the frequency converter 101, the first end of the third input line 1213 is connected to the third phase of the frequency converter 101, the second end of the first input line 1211 is connected to the first end of the first switch 1219, the second end of the second input line 1212 is connected to the first end of the second switch 12110, and the second end of the third input line 1213 is connected to the first end of the third switch 12111.

[0035] The first end of the fourth input line 1214 is connected to the first end of the DC braking power supply 111, the first end of the fifth input line 1215 is connected to the second end of the DC braking power supply 111, the second end of the fourth input line 1214 is connected to the second end of the first switching switch 1219, and the second end of the fifth input line 1215 is connected to the second end of the second switching switch 12110.

[0036] The first end of the first output line 1216 is connected to the third end of the first switch 1219, the first end of the second output line 1217 is connected to the third end of the second switch 12110, the first end of the third output line 1218 is connected to the second end of the third switch 12111, and the second ends of the first output line 1216, the second output line 1217, and the third output line 1218 are all connected to the motor 112.

[0037] When the test system for the braking condition of the deep-water power source is working normally, the three-phase voltage output by the frequency converter 101 provides normal power to the underwater equipment. In the test system of the braking condition of the deep water power source, when the energy consumption braking is performed, the on-off of the first switch 1219, the second switch 12110 and the third switch 12111 is controlled, so that the three-phase electric voltage supply is switched to the DC braking voltage supply, thereby simulating the normal operation condition or the braking condition of the deep water power source / underwater equipment, making the data collected in the simulation scene tend to the data collected in the actual scene, and ensuring the accuracy of data verification.

[0038] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 As shown in Figure 1 The test system of the braking condition of the deep water power source further includes: The acquisition unit 122 is configured to acquire the electric parameters output by the switching unit 121.

[0039] In some embodiments, the acquisition unit 122 is arranged between the motor 112 and the switching unit 121, and the acquisition unit 122 can be a sampling resistor, which is used to calculate the electric parameters such as power by using the resistance value.

[0040] The control unit 123 is configured to control the switching unit 121 to switch the working kinetic energy to the braking kinetic energy, or switch the braking kinetic energy to the working kinetic energy, and verify the system performance of the deep water power source in the braking condition by using the electric parameters.

[0041] In the embodiment, the control unit 123 can be a controller such as FPGA, single-chip microcomputer, PLC or the like composed of control chips.

[0042] In order to realize intelligent control, the acquisition unit 122 and the control unit 123 can be arranged to monitor the electric parameters of the operation condition or the working mode of the test system and the underwater equipment, and the first switch 1219, the second switch 12110 and the third switch 12111 are intelligently controlled by using the monitored electric parameters, so as to accurately switch the normal condition and the braking condition, thereby making the data collected in the simulation scene tend to the data collected in the actual scene, and ensuring the accuracy of data verification.

[0043] The test system of the braking condition of the deep water power source provided in the embodiments of the present application is further connected with a hydraulic unit 124 and a generator 125, in addition to the devices, units or components provided in the above embodiments.

[0044] The hydraulic unit 124 is connected with the motor 112, and the hydraulic unit 124 is configured to convert the working kinetic energy or the braking kinetic energy output by the motor 112 into mechanical energy; the generator 125 is connected with the hydraulic unit 124, and the generator 125 is configured to convert the mechanical energy into electric energy for powering the underwater equipment.

[0045] In the embodiment, in order to simulate the real working condition of the underwater environment as much as possible, the load is digitized as the hydraulic unit 124 and the generator 125, and the motor 112 converts the electric energy into mechanical energy and transmits to the hydraulic unit 124.

[0046] In the embodiment, the hydraulic unit 124 and the motor 112 are used as part of the load to simulate the normal working of the underwater equipment.

[0047] Optionally, the hydraulic unit 124 comprises a hydraulic pump 1241 and a hydraulic motor 1242.

[0048] Optionally, the motor 112 and the hydraulic motor 1242 are connected with a frequency converter, and the frequency converter is used to adjust the rotating speed of the motor 112 and the hydraulic pump 1241.

[0049] In the embodiment, the motor 112 and the hydraulic pump 1241 are coaxial, so when the rotating speed of the motor 112 and the hydraulic pump 1241 is adjusted by using the frequency converter, the output flow and pressure of the hydraulic pump 1241 are changed by adjusting the rotating speed of the hydraulic pump 1241, so as to realize the power control of the underwater equipment; the accurate control of the power source system is realized by adjusting the rotating speed of the motor 112, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving and high efficiency.

[0050] Optionally, in order to ensure the stable working of the test system and ensure the normal working of the test system, a filter unit is arranged between the connection line of the frequency conversion power supply 101 and the motor 112.

[0051] Optionally, after the frequency conversion power supply 101 is filtered by the filter unit in actual use, the long-distance transmission needs to be realized through the cable, so when the test system is tested, the cable model is additionally designed to simulate the cable environment used in the underwater environment, so as to make the final test result more real.

[0052] In the embodiment, when the hydraulic unit 124 and the generator 125 work normally, the frequency conversion power supply 101 transmits three-phase voltage to the motor 112, in order to improve the quality of the output electric energy of the frequency conversion power supply 101, the frequency conversion power supply 101 can be connected with a filter unit, and the three-phase voltage output by the frequency conversion power supply 101 is filtered to remove the noise or interference, and then the output electric energy is provided to the motor 112.

[0053] It should be noted that the firewire and zero line in the three-phase voltage of the frequency conversion power supply 101 correspond to the positive and negative poles of the direct-current braking power supply 111, so that the switching unit 121 realizes the working condition switching.

[0054] Optionally, the generator 125 can be connected to a three-phase resistance load to receive the electrical energy output by the generator 125, and the generator 125 can also be connected to a four-quadrant frequency converter to feed the generated electrical energy back to the power grid, so that the generator 125 is used as a load of the hydraulic motor 1242, thereby achieving the purpose of energy saving while testing.

[0055] In some embodiments, the power simulation device 10 includes a variable frequency power supply 101 and an electric motor 112, the variable frequency power supply 101 generates electricity and transmits an electrical signal to the electric motor 112.

[0056] The power simulation device 10 is used to simulate the power supply for underwater equipment. In this application, in order to simulate the real working conditions of the underwater environment as much as possible, the hydraulic unit 124 is used to simulate the large starting load of the underwater equipment in the underwater environment, and the electric motor 112 converts electrical energy into mechanical energy and transmits it to the hydraulic unit 124. Figure 2

[0057] Due to the high pressure and low temperature of deep water in a complex underwater environment, the viscosity of hydraulic oil is large, and the adverse effects of high pressure and large viscosity of hydraulic oil are that the starting load of the electric motor is large, which leads to starting difficulty. Therefore, the hydraulic unit 124 is used to simulate the load to achieve the simulation of large load starting.

[0058] Large load starting includes large load and large rotational inertia. During the starting stage of the electric motor 112, the electric motor 112 cannot provide a large load when it is not rotating. Therefore, the hydraulic unit 124 is used as the load of the entire underwater power source, including the hydraulic pump 1241 and the hydraulic motor 1242. The hydraulic pump 1241 receives mechanical energy output by the electric motor 112 and converts it into hydraulic energy, and the hydraulic motor 1242 converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy. When in use, the viscosity of the hydraulic oil is increased to increase the rotational inertia during starting, thereby simulating the problem of large starting load in the actual underwater environment. After simulating the load of the underwater power source, the digital test system provided in this application can be used to test and verify the underwater power source.

[0059] ​In some embodiments, the power simulation device 10 and the brake simulation device 11 can also be a power supply system composed of a direct current power supply, an inverter, a umbilical cable unit and a motor, and in actual underwater action, the hydraulic load is driven by the motor driven by the umbilical cable, and due to the cable length of the umbilical cable being hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters, the cable resistance increases, which may cause insufficient voltage of the motor, especially when the motor is started or under heavy load. Therefore, in order to consider the influence of long cable on the underwater power source, the direct current power supply outputs power through the inverter and inputs variable frequency power to the motor through the umbilical cable unit, wherein the umbilical cable unit adopts an existing cable model suitable for underwater environment, and the parameters thereof can be set and modified by using existing software. Users can test whether the deep water power source can stably cope with the brake condition under different cable models.

[0060] In some embodiments, the brake simulation device can include a direct current brake power supply and a brake resistor, which are used to consume the brake energy when the motor brakes, thereby simulating the brake condition.

[0061] In some embodiments, in addition to deep water high pressure and low temperature, the deep water (underwater) environment can also include flow velocity disturbance, complex underwater geological environment, temperature change of underwater environment, etc. In order to simulate the real underwater environment, the test system can introduce a random disturbance signal to simulate the underwater environment and realize digital testing of the deep water power source. The flow velocity disturbance of the water flow will cause current fluctuation and load fluctuation, so in this application, the impact of water flow can be simulated by simulating current fluctuation and load fluctuation.

[0062] In some embodiments, a random disturbance signal can be generated by a hydraulic unit to simulate load fluctuation, and a variable resistor can be connected to the generator to apply a random disturbance signal to simulate the disturbance of the load size caused by the sea temperature or external environment. Load fluctuation can be simulated by changing the resistance value of the variable resistor.

[0063] The temperature change of the underwater environment will cause the resistance value of the internal resistance of the direct current brake power supply or the brake resistor to change, and the power output of the direct current brake power supply or the resistance power level will change, so the influence of temperature change on energy consumption brake during underwater braking can be simulated according to the change of power through the brake source.

[0064] When the brake source is a direct current brake power supply, the internal resistance of the direct current brake power supply is related to the underwater temperature, and a low random signal is generated to simulate the underwater low temperature and instability. Therefore, when the random signal acts on the direct current brake power supply, the internal resistance will change, and the power output of the direct current brake power supply will also change (for example, when the temperature is low, the internal resistance increases, and the output power decreases). Therefore, the control platform can simulate the influence of underwater temperature change on energy consumption brake during underwater braking.

[0065] When the braking source is a braking resistor, the resistance of the braking resistor is related to the underwater temperature, and the temperature generates a low random signal to simulate the underwater low temperature and instability. Thus, when the random signal acts on the braking resistor, the resistance of the braking resistor changes, and when the resistance changes, the resistance power level of the braking resistor also changes. Therefore, the control platform can simulate the influence of the underwater temperature change on the energy consumption braking during underwater braking.

[0066] When the braking source is a series connection of a direct current braking power supply and a braking resistor, the resistance of the braking resistor and the internal resistance of the direct current braking power supply are related to the underwater temperature, and the temperature generates a low random signal to simulate the underwater low temperature and instability. Thus, when the random signal acts on the braking resistor and the direct current braking power supply, the resistance of the braking resistor and the direct current braking power supply changes, and when the resistance changes, the power output of the direct current braking power supply also changes. Therefore, the control platform can simulate the influence of the underwater temperature change on the energy consumption braking during underwater braking.

[0067] After the energy consumption braking, the electric parameters related to the deep water power source (for example, three-phase voltage, three-phase current, speed, back electromotive force, electromagnetic torque, direct current bus voltage, braking time, braking current and the like) can be collected by the collection unit, that is, the electric parameters related to the direct current power supply, the inverter, the umbilical cable unit and the motor. According to the electric parameters, it can be analyzed that where the problem of the underwater power source appears under the braking condition, data reference is provided for the design of the deep water power source system, and reliable basis is provided for the optimization and improvement of the performance of the deep water power source system. When the problem occurs, the engineer can adjust the parameters for retesting until a stable, safe and reliable underwater power source system is tested.

[0068] Specifically, under the braking condition, it can be observed whether the speed of the motor can be successfully reduced, and the process is without reverse rotation and without strong vibration, to verify whether the braking is stable and effective.

[0069] By observing whether the current (for example, stator three-phase current, cable front current (that is, the current input to the umbilical cable unit), cable rear current (that is, the current output by the umbilical cable unit)) is within the set range, whether the current is overcurrent, and whether the fluctuation is too large, it can be verified whether the current is within the safe range.

[0070] By observing whether there is voltage across the braking resistor and whether the current actually flows into the resistor, it can be verified whether the braking energy is effectively dissipated.

[0071] By observing whether the braking time, the direct current bus voltage and the maximum current meet the expectations or are within the design specification, it can be verified whether the electrical indicators meet the requirements.

[0072] The test method for the braking condition of the deep water power source provided in the present application, like Figure 4As shown, the method can be applied to the test system for the braking condition of the deep water power source provided in the above embodiments, and the test system comprises a power simulation device, a braking simulation device, and a test device. The test device can be stored in the form of control code in the control unit or storage device of the test device, and then read and called by the control chip in the control unit to cooperate with the corresponding hardware to realize the corresponding test method. Specifically, the test method for the braking condition of the deep water power source can comprise: S01, after the power simulation device runs for a preset time, the test device switches the working kinetic energy provided by the power simulation device to the braking kinetic energy provided by the braking simulation device.
