Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of online monitoring technology for power transmission lines, and specifically relates to a capacitance calculation method for monitoring icing on power transmission lines. Background Technology

[0002] Icing on transmission lines is one of the serious natural disasters that power grids face during winter operation in cold regions. Icing can lead to accidents such as line galloping, line breakage, and collapse, seriously threatening the safe operation of the power grid. Icing monitoring technologies mainly include image recognition methods, tension sensor methods, and weather forecasting methods, but these methods have problems such as complex installation, great susceptibility to environmental influences, and low measurement accuracy.

[0003] Capacitive sensing has gained widespread attention in the field of icing monitoring in recent years due to its advantages such as fast response speed, simple structure, and real-time online monitoring capability. Capacitive ice thickness measurement is based on the principle of dielectric constant difference, inverting ice thickness by measuring the change in capacitance between electrodes. However, most capacitive measurement methods in related technologies do not fully consider electrode edge effects, the combined effects of multiple dielectric layers, and the mutual capacitance effect between array electrodes, resulting in inaccurate capacitance measurement models and limited applicability.

[0004] Especially in measuring thin ice layers, i.e., ice thickness within the range of 0-10mm, related technologies struggle to achieve high-precision measurements, which is precisely the critical data range for transmission line anti-icing and de-icing decisions. Furthermore, existing capacitance calculation models often neglect the mutual influence between electrode arrays, leading to significant measurement errors in practical applications.

By establishing a basic model that equates a single three-electrode array to two circular capacitors connected in parallel, a simulation model of the ice-observing device is obtained.

[0025] In the embodiments of this disclosure, the ice observation device is installed on the power transmission line for monitoring the icing of the power transmission line. The ice observation device is a cylindrical multi-electrode array composed of multiple three-electrode arrays connected in parallel.

[0026] In the embodiments of this disclosure, the three-electrode array is composed of three parallel and coaxially arranged circular electrode plates fitted onto an insulating support tube. An insulating ring is installed between every two adjacent circular electrode plates, and two adjacent circular electrode plates are equivalent to a single circular capacitor. Figure 2 A circuit diagram is provided that represents a three-electrode array equivalent to two circular ring capacitors connected in parallel, such as... Figure 2 As shown, a single three-electrode array is equivalent to two circular ring capacitors connected in parallel, denoted as a three-electrode unit, and the three-electrode units are connected in parallel with each other.

[0027] In some embodiments, the structure of the three-electrode array is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the inner side of the three-electrode array is an insulating support tube, the inner side of the three-electrode array is a power transmission line conductor, and the outer side of the three-electrode array is an ice layer.

[0028] In some embodiments, the three-electrode array is formed by connecting an excitation electrode W, an insulating ring, an induction electrode Y, an insulating ring, and an excitation electrode Z in sequence along the conductor axis direction of the transmission line. The excitation electrode W and the induction electrode Y form a circular capacitor, and the excitation electrode Z and the induction electrode Y form a circular capacitor.

[0029] In the embodiments of this disclosure, a single three-electrode array is equivalent to two circular ring capacitors connected in parallel, and the entire ice observer is regarded as a cylindrical multi-electrode array of N three-electrode arrays connected in parallel, where N is a natural number. The expression of the simulation model of the ice observer device is as follows: C = 2N(C1 + C2 + C3) (Formula 1) In Formula 1, C is the initial total capacitance of the cylindrical multi-electrode array, C1 and C2 are the theoretical edge capacitances of the ring capacitor, C1 is the capacitance generated by the edge effect of ice covering / external environment on the outside of the ring capacitor, C2 is the capacitance generated by the edge effect of the insulating support tube on the inside of the ring capacitor, and C3 is the ideal parallel plate capacitance between two adjacent ring electrode plates when the edge effect is ignored.

[0030] S102, based on the parallel plate capacitance formula, establishes a parallel plate capacitance calculation model between two adjacent circular annular electrode plates through calculus and circuit equivalence method.

[0031] In some embodiments, the expression for the parallel plate capacitance calculation model is: C3'= [ε3π(D e 2 - D s 2 )] / (4Hi ) (Formula 2) In Formula 2, C3' is the calculated parallel plate capacitance between two adjacent annular electrode plates, and ε3 is the dielectric constant of the insulating support tube; D e D is the outer diameter of the annular electrode plate. s H is the outer diameter of the insulating support tube; i This is the height of the insulating ring.

[0032] S103. Based on the parallel plate edge effect and electric field theory, a calculation model for the edge capacitance of a circular ring capacitor is established.

[0033] In some embodiments, considering the parallel plate edge effect, the edge of the parallel plate is regarded as a cable structure, and the edge capacitance formula is derived based on electric field theory. A schematic diagram of the electric field distribution at the edge of the parallel plate is shown below. Figure 4 As shown, for edge effects in one direction, the theoretical formula for edge capacitance per unit length is: Cu= εb / d + ε / π {1 + ln[1 + πb / d + ln(1 + πb / d)]} (Formula 3) In Formula 3, ε is the equivalent dielectric constant, b is the half-width of the plates of the circular capacitor, and d is the distance between the plates of the circular capacitor.

[0034] Furthermore, in some embodiments, through analysis of the electric field at the edges of the inner and outer rings of the circular capacitor, the electric field path of the circular ring edge capacitor is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, C air-b This indicates the path from the electrode downwards to the shielding layer or grounding layer, forming an air capacitor; C n Indicates the path of the near-field coupling capacitor, C m Indicates the path of the main test capacitor, C ice Indicates the path of additional capacitance formed by ice layer, C air-k The path from the electrode to the external open space forms an air capacitor. The inner and outer rings of the circular ring are regarded as the edges of parallel plates, respectively. Based on the theoretical formula of edge capacitance per unit length, the edge capacitances C1' and C2' of the circular ring capacitor are derived. The expressions for C1' and C2' are shown in Formula 4 and Formula 5, respectively. C1'= ε1D e {1 + ln[1 + (πd e / H i ) + ln(1 + πd e / H i )]} (Formula 4) C2'= ε2D s {1 + ln[1 + (πd e / H i ) + ln(1 + πde / H i )]} (Formula 5) In Formulas 4 and 5, C1' is the calculated capacitance generated by the edge effect of the inner insulating support tube of the circular ring capacitor, C2' is the calculated capacitance generated by the edge effect of the inner insulating support tube of the circular ring capacitor, ε1 is the equivalent dielectric constant of the icing / external environment, ε2 is the equivalent dielectric constant along the path of the capacitance generated by the edge effect of the inner support column, and d e This represents the physical thickness of the annular electrode plate.

[0035] S104, combining the parallel plate capacitance calculation model and the edge capacitance calculation model, yields the capacitance calculation model for a single circular capacitor.

[0036] In some embodiments, the expression for the capacitance calculation model of a single circular ring capacitor is: C'= [ε3π(D e 2 - D s 2 )] / (4H i ) + (ε2D s + ε1D e ) {1 + ln[1 + (πd e / H i ) +ln(1 + πd e / H i )]} (Formula 6) In Formula 6, C' is the calculated capacitance value of a single circular capacitor, which is the sum of C1', C2', and C3'.

[0037] S105, the capacitance calculation model of a single circular ring capacitor and the mutual capacitance between adjacent three-electrode arrays are introduced into the simulation model to obtain the capacitance calculation model of a cylindrical multi-electrode array.

[0038] In some embodiments, a three-electrode array consists of two circular ring capacitors connected in parallel, denoted as a three-electrode unit. The capacitance value of the three-electrode unit can be derived from the calculated capacitance value C' of a single circular ring capacitor as C″ = 2C'.

[0039] In some embodiments, considering the mutual capacitance effect between adjacent three-electrode units, the mutual capacitance between adjacent three-electrode arrays is introduced into the simulation model, and the expression for the total capacitance of the cylindrical multi-electrode array is obtained as follows: Call = 2N (C1 + C2 + C3) + CH (Formula 7) Furthermore, by incorporating the capacitance calculation model of a single circular ring capacitor into Equation 7, the final expression for the total capacitance of the cylindrical multi-electrode array is obtained as follows: Call = 2N C' + CH (Formula 8) In some embodiments, CH is the mutual capacitance between adjacent electrode units, and the calculation formula is: CH = 2(N-1) { [ε3π(D e 2 - D s 2 ) / (4(H i +H'))] × [H i / (H i +H')] + [ε3π(D e 2 -D s 2 ) / (4(3H i +H'))] × [2H i / (3H i +H')]} (Formula 9) In Formula 9, H' is the spacing between adjacent three-electrode units.

[0040] S106, substitute the dielectric constant into the capacitance calculation model of the cylindrical multi-electrode array to obtain the capacitance value of the cylindrical multi-electrode array.

[0041] In embodiments of this disclosure, the capacitance calculation model includes the relationship between the capacitance value and the equivalent dielectric constant of a cylindrical multi-electrode array, allowing the acquisition of this relationship, such as... Figure 6 This disclosure provides a curve showing the relationship between capacitance value and equivalent dielectric constant. Therefore, after determining the equivalent dielectric constant, the capacitance value can be calculated using a capacitance calculation model. Furthermore, the ice layer thickness is related to the equivalent dielectric constant. After confirming the quantitative relationship between ice layer thickness and dielectric constant, the ice layer thickness can be deduced from the actual measured capacitance value using the capacitance calculation model, thus achieving accurate monitoring of the ice layer thickness.

[0042] In some embodiments of this disclosure, after substituting the dielectric constant into the capacitance calculation model of the cylindrical multi-electrode array to obtain the capacitance value of the cylindrical multi-electrode array, the method further includes: establishing a quantitative relationship between the ice thickness of the transmission line icing and the dielectric constant; substituting the quantitative relationship into the capacitance calculation model of the cylindrical multi-electrode array to obtain a relationship model between the ice thickness and the capacitance value; and using the relationship model between the ice thickness and the capacitance value to deduce the ice thickness of the transmission line icing by actually measuring the capacitance value.

[0043] In some embodiments of this disclosure, after establishing an edge capacitance calculation model for a circular capacitor based on the parallel plate edge effect and electric field theory, the method further includes: when the ratio of the height of the circular electrode plate to the thickness of the ice layer is lower than a preset threshold, the parallel plate edge effect is considered weak; an attenuation factor is determined based on the ratio of the height of the circular electrode plate to the thickness of the ice layer, and an attenuation factor is introduced into the edge capacitance calculation model to adjust the edge capacitance calculation model.

[0044] In summary, this disclosure provides a capacitance calculation method for transmission line icing monitoring. Based on a cylindrical three-electrode array structure, it establishes a precise capacitance calculation model incorporating edge effects and mutual capacitance effects, significantly improving the accuracy of the capacitance calculation model. This makes it particularly suitable for high-precision measurement of 0-10mm thin ice layers. A quantitative relationship between ice thickness and equivalent dielectric constant is established, providing a theoretical basis for accurate ice thickness inversion and enabling precise monitoring of ice thickness. Furthermore, the applicable scope and limitations of the model are clarified, indicating that when the electrode height is much smaller than the ice height, the edge effect weakens, requiring corresponding adjustments to the model. This method has a clear structure, well-defined parameters, and good engineering applicability, and can be directly applied to online monitoring systems for transmission line icing.

A parallel plate capacitance calculation module is used to establish a parallel plate capacitance calculation model between two adjacent annular electrode plates based on the parallel plate capacitance formula, using calculus and circuit equivalence methods. An edge capacitance calculation module is used to establish an edge capacitance calculation model for the circular capacitor based on the parallel plate edge effect and electric field theory. A single capacitance calculation module is used to combine the parallel plate capacitance calculation model and the edge capacitance calculation model to obtain the capacitance calculation model of a single ring capacitor. A mutual capacitance correction module is used to introduce the capacitance calculation model of a single circular ring capacitor and the mutual capacitance between adjacent three-electrode arrays into the simulation model to obtain the capacitance calculation model of the cylindrical multi-electrode array. The total capacitance calculation module is used to substitute the dielectric constant into the capacitance calculation model of the cylindrical multi-electrode array to obtain the capacitance value of the cylindrical multi-electrode array.
