Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of electric energy metering, in particular to a system and method for realizing current dynamic conversion based on phase correction. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the power system, electric energy metering is a key link to ensure the fairness of power transaction and improve the efficiency of power grid operation. The traditional electric energy metering system mainly relies on current transformers (CT) and voltage transformers (VT) to sample the current and voltage in the circuit, and convert these signals into a range suitable for detection by the electric energy meter.
[0003] However, this conversion process does not take into account the phase correction, which has the following technical problems: phase difference introduces error: when the current and voltage signals are transmitted and converted, due to the core loss of the transformer, the wire impedance, the temperature change and other factors, an additional phase difference will be generated between them. The existence of this phase difference will directly affect the calculation of the power factor, and thus lead to inaccurate electric energy metering. Especially in the environment of low power factor, the error of phase difference will be significantly amplified, and the influence on electric energy metering is more serious; insufficient harmonic component suppression: there are often harmonics in the power system, i.e. alternating current components with an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency. If no phase correction is performed, the suppression ability of the current transformer and the voltage transformer to the harmonic will be reduced, so that the final electric energy metering result is disturbed by the harmonic, the precision is reduced, etc. SUMMARY
[0004] The embodiments of the present application provide a system and method for realizing current dynamic conversion based on phase correction, which adjusts the phase relationship between the current signal and the voltage signal, and improves the precision of power data measurement.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a system for realizing current dynamic conversion based on phase correction, which comprises:

[0010] The clock module is used to record the timestamps of the measured current and voltage signals;
[0011] The processor is used to calculate the required power data based on the phase-corrected current and voltage signals, as well as the timestamps of the current and voltage signals.
[0012] Secondly, this application provides a method for dynamic current conversion based on phase correction, the method comprising:
[0013] Measure the current and voltage signals in the circuit under test;
[0014] The current and voltage signals are denoised, and the denoised voltage and current signals are then phase-corrected.
[0015] Record the timestamps of the measured current and voltage signals;
[0016] The required power data is calculated based on the phase-corrected current and voltage signals, as well as the timestamps of the measured current and voltage signals.

Simultaneously, to eliminate temperature interference, a temperature detection element and a temperature control module are configured to monitor and adjust the temperature in real time, avoiding signal errors caused by temperature changes. The signal conditioning circuit is responsible for phase correction of the current and voltage signals, eliminating phase shifts caused by circuit or external factors, thereby ensuring signal accuracy and consistency. In summary, this system can adjust the phase relationship between current and voltage signals, improving the accuracy of power data measurement.

[0028] The following section will describe in detail a system for dynamic current conversion based on phase correction, which can adjust the phase relationship between current and voltage signals and improve the accuracy of power data measurement.
[0029] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the system for dynamic current conversion based on phase correction, provided in an embodiment of this application.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, this system for dynamic current conversion based on phase correction mainly includes:
[0031] A current transformer is used to measure the current signal in the circuit under test and transmit the current signal to the signal conditioning circuit.
[0032] A voltage transformer is used to measure the voltage signal in the circuit under test and transmit the voltage signal to the signal conditioning circuit.
[0033] The signal conditioning circuit is used to receive current signals and voltage signals, perform noise reduction processing on the current signals and voltage signals, perform phase correction on the noise-reduced current signals and voltage signals, and upload the phase-corrected current signals and voltage signals to the processor.
[0034] The clock module is used to record the timestamps of the measured current and voltage signals;
[0035] The processor is used to calculate the required power data based on the phase-corrected current and voltage signals, as well as the timestamps of the current and voltage signals.
[0036] The primary side of both the current transformer and the voltage transformer is connected to the signal conditioning circuit, and the other secondary side is connected to the circuit under test. The signal conditioning circuit, memory, clock module, and communication unit are all connected to the processor.
[0037] In addition, the system also includes: a memory for storing data received and calculated by the processor; a communication module for transmitting data received and calculated by the processor to the management system; and a power supply module for supplying power to the system.
[0038] It should be noted that the current and voltage signals output by the aforementioned current transformers and voltage transformers are electrical signals suitable for measurement by electricity meters.
[0039] In this embodiment, both the current transformer and the voltage transformer include a temperature detection element.
[0040] Temperature sensing elements are used to monitor the operating temperature of current transformers and voltage transformers in real time when measuring current and voltage signals in the circuit under test, and to upload the operating temperature of current transformers and voltage transformers to the signal conditioning circuit.
[0041] Correspondingly, the signal conditioning circuit is used to correct the current and voltage signals transmitted by the current and voltage transformers based on their operating temperatures.
[0042] When the current transformer is working, the copper loss of the internal conductive cable and the iron loss of the iron core will generate heat, causing the temperature to rise. The temperature change will change the magnetic permeability of the iron core (affecting the accuracy of electromagnetic induction) and the resistance of the conductive cable (affecting the current transmission), which will lead to errors in the current / voltage, so correction is required.
[0043] In this embodiment, the system also includes a temperature control module, which is connected to the temperature detection element in the current transformer and voltage transformer, and is used to adjust the temperature in the current transformer and voltage transformer to a standard range, wherein the standard range is preset.
[0044] Specifically, the temperature control module can be connected via injection holes and circulation pipelines. For example, the outer side of the current transformer / voltage transformer housing has two injection holes, each equipped with a miniature valve. These valves are connected to the heating / cooling unit of the temperature control module via circulation pipelines. The circulation pipelines are filled with the same insulating heat-conducting liquid as the flexible heat-conducting tubes, forming a heat-conducting liquid circulation loop. If the temperature detection element detects that the transformer temperature is too high (e.g., exceeding 40°C), it will control the miniature valves to open, and the circulation pipeline will inject the cooled heat-conducting liquid into the flexible heat-conducting tubes while simultaneously draining the heated and expanded liquid from the tubes. This heat exchange reduces the internal temperature of the transformer.
[0045] The signal conditioning circuit includes an α sign register, an all-pass filter coefficient parameter register, an all-pass filter, and a gating circuit.
[0046] The α sign register is used to calculate and store the phase difference increment between the denoised current signal and the voltage signal.
[0047] The all-pass filter coefficient parameter register is used to read the phase difference increment from the α sign register, convert the phase difference increment into parameters recognizable by the all-pass filter, and store the parameters.
[0048] The gating circuit is used to determine the state of the all-pass filter and the selection of the signal path based on the phase difference increment stored in the α sign register;
[0049] The all-pass filter is used to read the stored parameters from the all-pass filter coefficient parameter register, configure its own filtering parameters, and then perform phase correction on the noise-reduced current signal and the current signal.
[0050] It's important to note that the core of phase correction is utilizing the phase shifting characteristics of an all-pass filter to achieve reverse cancellation of the phase difference. An all-pass filter is a special signal processing unit characterized by almost no attenuation of the input signal amplitude (keeping the signal amplitude constant) while precisely controlling the signal phase (leading or lagging the signal phase by a specific angle). In electrical energy measurement, the current signal (from a current transformer) and voltage signal (from a voltage transformer) should ideally maintain a fixed phase relationship (e.g., the phase difference between a sinusoidal current and voltage is determined by the load power factor). However, in reality, factors such as transformer core losses, conductor impedance, and temperature changes (e.g., the subtle effect of thermal expansion of the elastic heat pipe in a current transformer on signal transmission) can cause an additional phase difference increment α. Without correction, this directly leads to errors in power and energy calculations (especially significant in low power factor scenarios). The role of the all-pass filter is to specifically generate a phase shift equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to α, thereby canceling the effect of α and restoring the corrected current synchronization signal and voltage synchronization signal to their ideal phase relationship.
[0051] In addition, the α sign register calculates the phase difference increment between the denoised current signal and the voltage signal and stores three possible cases for the phase difference increment: α>0, α<0, and α=0. Where α>0 indicates that the current signal phase leads the voltage signal (the current signal phase needs to be delayed for synchronization); α<0 indicates that the voltage signal phase leads the current signal (the voltage signal phase needs to be delayed for synchronization); and α=0 indicates that there is no additional phase difference between the two and no correction is required.
[0052] It should also be noted that the sign of α is stored in the α sign register (generally: α>0 corresponds to 0, α<0 corresponds to 1, α=0 corresponds to 2), and the specific value of α is quantized (converted into a parameter that the all-pass filter can recognize) and stored in the all-pass filter coefficient parameter register.
[0053] The following explains how to correct the error based on the three scenarios described above:
[0054] If the phase difference increment α calculated and stored by the α sign register is positive, the corresponding gating circuit will connect the full-pass filter to the current signal channel, bypass the voltage signal channel directly, and the current signal will pass through the full-pass filter, with the phase being precisely delayed by α angle, and output a current synchronization signal.
[0055] If the phase difference increment α calculated and stored by the α sign register is negative, the corresponding gating circuit will connect the full-pass filter to the voltage signal channel and bypass the current signal channel directly. The voltage signal passes through the full-pass filter and its phase is precisely delayed by |α| angles (that is, the current signal phase leads by α angles), and the output voltage synchronization signal is generated.
[0056] If the phase difference increment α calculated and stored by the α sign register is zero, the corresponding gating circuit will bypass both the current signal channel and the voltage signal channel.
[0057] It should be noted that the above signal channels are not processed when they are bypassed. The signal channels processed by the all-pass filter eliminate the influence of the additional phase difference α, restore the ideal phase relationship, and can be directly used for subsequent accurate calculation of active power, reactive power, and electrical energy.
[0058] In this embodiment, the signal conditioning circuit further includes a signal amplifier, which is used to adjust the noise-reduced current signal and voltage signal to a level range suitable for processing by the all-pass filter before phase correction.
[0059] It's understandable that all-pass filters primarily adjust the phase of signals, but their filtering effect is usually related to the amplitude (level) of the input signal. If the signal level is too low, the all-pass filter may not work effectively or achieve the expected phase correction effect; conversely, if the signal level is too high, it may cause distortion or overload in the filter. Therefore, a signal amplifier is used to adjust the signal level to a range suitable for the all-pass filter to ensure that it can stably perform phase correction on the signal, unaffected by the signal level.
[0060] In this embodiment, the system further includes a display unit, which is used to display the required power data calculated by the processor in real time.
[0061] In summary, the system for dynamic current conversion based on phase correction provided in this application aims to improve the measurement accuracy and system stability of current and voltage signals. Through current and voltage transformers, the system can accurately measure the current and voltage signals in the circuit under test, providing precise data for subsequent signal processing. Simultaneously, to eliminate temperature interference, a temperature detection element and a temperature control module are configured to monitor and adjust the temperature in real time, avoiding signal errors caused by temperature changes. The signal conditioning circuit is responsible for phase correction of the current and voltage signals, eliminating phase shifts caused by circuit or external factors, thereby ensuring signal accuracy and consistency. In conclusion, this system can adjust the phase relationship between current and voltage signals, improving the accuracy of power data measurement.
