Description
A fault location method and system for a multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission system Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power grid fault location, and specifically to a fault location method and system for a multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission system. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission systems have emerged, employing large-capacity grid-commutated converters (LCCs) as the centralized power sending end on the rectifier side and multiple modular multilevel converters (MMCs) as the multi-terminal receiving end on the inverter side. These systems combine the flexibility and speed of flexible DC control with the low loss and low cost of conventional DC. Structurally, multiple flexible DC converter stations are connected to the LCCs via DC lines in a branching manner, forming a "one-to-many" tree-like structure. Therefore, multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission systems fully utilize the cost advantages of LCC converter technology and the performance advantages of MMC converter technology, demonstrating broad application prospects. However, there are currently few practical engineering applications of multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission systems because: on the one hand, for such multi-branched multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission systems, since the transmission lines are not directly connected via reactors, the polarity and amplitude characteristics of the fault traveling wave will be more complex; on the other hand, existing technologies need to identify the difficult-to-distinguish second (or even third) real reflected waves and construct well-defined ranging equations, but theoretically reconstructing the fault wave process is quite difficult for both traditional point-to-point DC transmission systems and multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission systems.
[0003] Against this backdrop, relay protection and fault location technology based on traveling waves has attracted widespread attention in academia. Some scholars have constructed time-domain convolutional power, extracted specific frequency bands of traveling waves using wavelet decomposition, and calculated the convolutional power and transient energy of different frequency bands to achieve fault identification and protection. Other scholars have analyzed the refraction / reflection characteristics of fault traveling waves at different line terminals, deducing that the first peak time of the line-mode fault component voltage in intra-zone faults is shorter than that in extra-zone faults and is unaffected by transition resistance and fault type, thus proposing a protection method for ultra-high-speed DC lines. However, in multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission systems, there are multiple transmission lines directly connected without smoothing reactors, making it difficult to quantitatively analyze the fault wave process. Therefore, research can only focus on protection issues, which has certain limitations. Some scholars have also used the arrival times of the first two wavefronts of the line / zero mode for fault location in single-pole grounding faults, and extracted the arrival times of the first three wavefronts of the line-mode traveling wave for fault location in inter-pole short-circuit faults. A common problem with the above methods is that existing technologies face certain difficulties in extracting and distinguishing reflected wavefronts, especially since the complex reflections caused by high-impedance faults significantly interfere with the intrinsic propagation pattern of traveling waves, further contributing to errors. Furthermore, near-field faults, due to their complex reflected wavefronts, significantly reduce the speed of protection and the real-time performance of ranging. Summary of the Invention

[0012] Based on the above-mentioned fault location method for a multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission system, the present invention also provides a fault location system for a multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission system.
[0013] A fault location system for a multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission system includes:
[0014] The fault detection and modeling module is used to detect the real-time current traveling wave of the transmission line in the hybrid DC transmission system, and to determine whether the transmission line has a fault based on the real-time current traveling wave, and to mark the fault time when the transmission line has a fault; and to improve the traditional Beryllon model by considering line dispersion, so as to establish an improved Beryllon model that considers different fault locations.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The fault location method and system for a multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission system improves upon the traditional Berylon model, enabling it to possess complete distributed parameter line characterization capabilities and theoretical wave process deduction capabilities under hypothetical fault scenarios. This allows it to calculate line dispersion at different frequencies. The time-frequency distribution of wavelet variations is processed using a time-redistribution multi-synchronous compression transform algorithm to obtain the time-frequency spectrum of energy concentration at a fixed frequency, accurately acquiring the arrival time at that frequency. This reduces the errors caused by traditional time-frequency analysis methods such as wavelet transform and Fourier transform when processing strong frequency-varying signals. Furthermore, the accuracy is further improved after random forest correction. Simultaneously, the arrival time group is reconstructed to obtain reconstructed current traveling waves, improving tracking accuracy. The reconstructed current traveling waves at different fault locations are integrated to obtain a reference waveform library. The fault location is estimated using matching and tracking principles. Overall, the ranging error can be controlled below 1 km. Additionally, the ranging performance of this invention is not affected by transition resistance. Attached Figure Description

[0062] The Beryllon method is a technique that uses the concept of mixed waves to analyze the multiple reflections and refractions of waves; its essence remains the solution to the wave equation. Its core principle is to treat distributed parameter elements as equivalent to lumped parameter elements, and then use the numerical values of the lumped parameters to calculate the wave process along the line.

It cannot be directly expressed mathematically, so approximations are often used.
[0082] Using the exponential function representing delay in the complex frequency domain By transforming the complex frequency domain expression of the attenuation coefficient, we obtain the complex frequency domain expression of the attenuation coefficient based on distortion and attenuation (i.e., using an exponential function in the complex frequency domain). To represent the delay, so as to process equation (15), and the complex frequency domain expression of the attenuation coefficient based on distortion and attenuation is:

It represents the distortion of the fault traveling wave; the greater the difference in wave velocity between different frequencies, the smaller its value. For time delay The unit step function.

[0106] Berylon equivalent network for a three-terminal hybrid HVDC transmission system:
[0107] Using the above derivation method of the Berylon equivalent circuit, the Berylon equivalent network of the three-terminal hybrid HVDC transmission system under different fault locations is obtained.
[0108] Case 1: As shown in Figure 2, when the line exist ms, When a single-pole ground fault occurs, the equivalent current source can be derived from equations (12) and (13), and the equivalent voltage source can be derived from equation (23).

[0111] According to Kirchhoff's current theorem, at any node in a circuit, the algebraic sum of the currents flowing into and out of that node is always equal to zero. Therefore, the current excitation matrix I of each node in the Berylon equivalent network is... s It can be expressed by the following formula:

[0118] By combining equations (25), (26), and (27), the sudden changes in voltage and current at each node during a fault can be solved. Based on these sudden changes, the voltage at the traveling wave detection device can be calculated. Current :

[0121] Case 2: As shown in Figure 2, when the line exist ms, A single-pole ground fault occurs at a certain location. After changing the fault location, the voltage information of each node does not change, therefore the equivalent current source does not change, and the current excitation matrix of each node remains unchanged.

[0126] III: Acquisition and Correction of Transition Point Time of Arrival
[0127] Mutation point acquisition:
[0128] for The frequency domain expression of a signal formed by the superposition of several independent intrinsic mode functions is generally as follows:
[0129] ; (31)
[0130] In the formula, and For the first The amplitude and phase of each component, Group delay. If a signal... wavelet basis is The corresponding wavelet transform is:
[0131] ; (32)
[0132] In the formula, As a scale factor, The translation factor is... To represent complex conjugation, use a window function. Constructing analytic wavelets And by eliminating redundant phase, the modified wavelet transform (MWT) becomes:
[0133] ; (33)
[0134] make Then the frequency domain expression of the window function is:
[0135] ; (34)
[0136] In the formula, According to Parseval's theorem, the frequency domain expression of MWT is:
[0137] ; (35)
[0138] Considering the severe energy diffusion in MWT, in order to improve energy concentration, the WTMSST (Time Redistribution Multi-Synchronous Compression Transform based on Wavelet Transform) fixed-point iterative post-processing method is introduced to repeatedly compress the dispersed time-frequency coefficients to the true group delay estimate, thereby improving the resolution in the time direction.
[0139] According to Plancherel's theorem, the energy spectrum of MWT is as follows:
[0140] ; (36)
[0141] In the formula, for The probability distribution function of the surrounding area. Then the centroid of the signal in the time direction is:
[0142] ; (37)
[0143] In the formula, Indicates taking the real part, , indicating that the window function size is By employing a post-processing strategy along the time direction, the time scale coefficients are transformed from... Transferred to Then WTMSST can be represented as:
[0144] ; (38)
[0145] In the formula, .
[0146] Due to WTSST Unable to accurately estimate the group delay of a strong frequency-varying signal, fixed-point iteration is used to eliminate the error between the two. After accumulating N times, a new expression for the group delay is obtained:
[0147] ; (39)
[0148] The formula for WTMSST at this time is:
[0149] ; (40)
[0150] When N is large enough, that is:
[0151] ; (41)
[0152] At this moment, the new The error between the group delay and the error approach zero, improving the ability to process high-frequency signals.
[0153] Correction of abrupt change point arrival time:
[0154] Due to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, time and frequency resolutions cannot be simultaneously optimized. The methods described above compress the diffused energy to the true group delay estimate. However, the difference between frequency-varying signals and fixed-frequency signals lies in the fact that multiple frequency components exist at the abrupt change point of the frequency-varying signal. In this case, the wavelet transform coefficients diffuse across multiple scales, and the energy ridge at a certain frequency overlaps with the energy at adjacent scales, leading to errors in extracting the arrival time of the abrupt change point for both frequency-varying and fixed-frequency signals. To eliminate this error, this invention introduces a random forest to learn the mapping relationship between the two, using the prediction result as the final arrival time of the abrupt change point.
[0155] Random forest is an ensemble learning algorithm that combines multiple weak classifiers (decision trees), with the final result obtained through voting or averaging. First, it obtains the mapping relationship between data points by acquiring features such as mean, standard deviation, and time offset. Then, these features are fed into the random forest model for training. Finally, the trained random forest model is used to predict the data, and the prediction result is as follows:
[0156] ; (42)
[0157] In the formula, , representing the characteristic matrix, For the number of trees, Indicates the first The prediction function of a decision tree.
[0158] Based on the above theoretical analysis, the preferred embodiments of each step in the method of the present invention are as follows:
[0159] Preferably, in step S1, the real-time current traveling wave is specifically detected by a traveling wave detection device installed on the rectifier side of the transmission line, and the sampling frequency of the traveling wave detection device is set to be [value missing]. ;
[0160] The criterion for determining whether a transmission line has experienced a fault based on the real-time current traveling wave is as follows:
[0161] ; (43)
[0162] in, The real-time current traveling wave. For time, The preset fault current threshold is used.
[0163] Specifically, when a DC line fault occurs, the traveling wave detection device detects a sudden change in the fault traveling wave. Since CVTs cannot transmit wideband voltage traveling waves, the distortion is severe in the high-frequency range. To ensure that the traveling wave detection device can quickly and accurately acquire fault traveling wave information, this invention selects the current traveling wave as the fault basis. The above fault criterion is simple, highly sensitive, and can quickly and accurately identify the first wave head after a line fault occurs, providing strong support for obtaining fault information.
[0164] Preferably, in S2, Part II above analyzes the Berylon method, transforms the actual transmission line model into a Berylon equivalent network, and obtains the equivalent calculation circuit of the dispersion model by considering transmission line loss and combining it with the Berylon method. Finally, the theoretical fault traveling wave (i.e., the theoretical current traveling wave after a fault occurs) can be derived.
[0165] Specifically, in this embodiment, the arrival time of the first wave head (i.e., the fault time) is obtained using fault criteria, denoted as t. p , extract t p The theoretical current traveling wave within a 2ms time window, 0.05ms before and 1.95ms after the time point.
[0166] Before step S3, the process further includes: normalizing the intercepted theoretical current traveling wave; wherein the formula for normalizing the intercepted theoretical current traveling wave is:
[0167] ;
[0168] in, The normalized theoretical current traveling wave, For the theoretical current traveling wave, The time of the fault, The width of the preset time window.
[0169] Specifically, normalizing the intercepted theoretical current traveling wave aims to reduce the deviation from the actual waveform. Since this embodiment selects the fault time t... p The time window is 2ms, consisting of 0.05ms before and 1.95ms after the specified time. Therefore, in this embodiment... =0.05ms, =1.95ms.

[0177] Specifically, since the Barrelon method cannot calculate broadband information when calculating the theoretical current traveling wave, there is a certain deviation from the actual waveform. Therefore, the method of this invention utilizes the characteristic of the WTMSST method in Part III to obtain information of the frequency-varying signal at various frequencies, compressing the actual traveling wave to the same frequency as the theoretical fault traveling wave, and eliminating errors through random forest to obtain the accurate trend of waveform change and reconstruct it. More specifically, the theoretical waveform calculation is the waveform at a fixed frequency. This is equivalent to using TMSST to compress the actual waveform (i.e., the PSCAD waveform, which is a frequency-varying waveform containing many different frequencies) to the same frequency as the theoretical waveform, and analyzing the abrupt change points at the same frequency.
[0178] Since the intercepted theoretical current traveling wave is normalized before step S3 in some embodiments, in step S3, the normalized theoretical current traveling wave is normalized according to the method described in Part III. WTMSST processing is performed to extract mutation point information at a fixed frequency and random forest is used for prediction and correction. However, this method can only obtain the energy value corresponding to the mutation point and cannot reflect the trend of change. Therefore, the following formula (45) is used to obtain the energy value. By observing the changing trends, we can improve the accuracy of the reconstructed waveform.

[0181] Based on the generation and propagation laws of fault traveling waves, the equivalent fault traveling wave in a short transient period (within a few milliseconds) can be approximated as a step wave. The equivalent fault traveling waves superimpose to form the reconstructed current traveling wave during propagation. The equivalent fault traveling wave corresponds one-to-one with the fault traveling wave. Therefore, the reconstructed current traveling wave can be approximated as being composed of multiple step waves superimposed, as shown in the following equation:

[0183] In the formula, e(t) represents the unit step function. and These are the first two digits of the reconstructed current traveling wave. The amplitude and arrival delay of each mutation component, This indicates the number of mutation components within the time window.

According to Part III, WTMSST can observe information at a fixed frequency. Combining these characteristics, the reconstructed current traveling wave at each frequency can be obtained.
[0185] Considering the different fault information at different frequency components, this invention selects reconstructed current traveling waves at low, medium, and high frequencies. The low-frequency component improves noise immunity, while the medium and high-frequency components are used for ranging and improving ranging accuracy. Then, the three reconstructed current traveling waves are fitted using the weighted least squares method to obtain the fitted current traveling wave.

Then... (t) A comprehensive similarity calculation is performed with the reference current traveling wave (i.e., the fitted current traveling wave at the first, last, and midpoints of the similar sub-interval) within the similar sub-interval, and the comprehensive similarity is compared to further determine the fault interval. At this point, the interval corresponding to the point with the highest comprehensive similarity among the first, last, and midpoints of the selected sub-intervals is determined as the fault interval. Specifically, if the comprehensive similarity at the midpoint of the selected sub-interval is the highest, then the sub-interval containing the midpoint of the selected sub-interval is determined as the fault interval. If the comprehensive similarity at the first or last endpoint of the selected sub-interval is the highest, then the fault interval is determined to be within the corresponding overlapping interval. Since the overlapping interval is composed of two fuzzy intervals, the fitted current traveling waves of these two fuzzy intervals... The differences are small, so further determination of the fault interval's location is needed. If the fault interval happens to be within the overlapping interval corresponding to the selected sub-interval, the current traveling wave is compared with the reference current traveling wave (i.e., the fitted current traveling wave at the first and last endpoints of the corresponding overlapping interval). The fault interval is further determined based on the interval corresponding to the point with the highest comprehensive similarity. The final complete fault interval determination formula is:

Specifically, the low frequency is 2 kHz, the medium frequency is 10 kHz, and the high frequency is 50 kHz.

[0220]
[0221] To ensure that the starting element based on current surge can accurately detect the first wavehead of the current traveling wave after a line fault, and considering the impact of 30dB noise on the surge, based on the PSCAD simulation results of the three-terminal hybrid DC transmission system, the threshold value is set to a single-pole ground fault occurring 1400 km from the end of the line, with a transition resistance of 600 ohms, and the traveling wave detection device detecting I... mThe adjacent values are 3.5487 kA and 3.5497 kA, respectively, with a corresponding current surge of 0.001. To ensure the accuracy of identifying the first wavefront and eliminate interference from ripple, a preset fault threshold K is set to prioritize accuracy at the expense of speed. set =0.0015.
[0222] To ensure the accuracy of distance measurement and improve its precision, the following formula is introduced to calculate the relative error x.
[0223] ; (52)
[0224] In the formula, This represents the actual distance to the fault. To calculate the fault distance theoretically.
[0225] In this invention, it is set According to formula (52), the length of each sub-interval is calculated to be 297.8 m. For ease of calculation, the length of each sub-interval is set to 300 m. For example, the first five sub-intervals are (0,300], (300,600], (600,900], (900,1200], and (1200,1500], with a total of 4964 waveform references. To improve the ability to judge fuzzy intervals, ΔL = 10 m is set. When the fault distance is within the fuzzy interval, the fault interval is further determined by S5.
[0226] The method of the present invention is illustrated below using a single-phase metallic grounding fault as an example:
[0227] Assuming in At 745.5 km ( When a unipolar metallic ground fault occurs, the transition resistance is calculated as the ideal value of 0 ohms. The arrival time of the first wavefront of the PSCAD simulation waveform and the waveform calculated by the Berylon theory are obtained by formula (43). The current traveling wave signal of the 2ms time window is extracted. The result of the obtained signal after normalization by formula (44) is shown in Figure 5. At this time, the frequency resolution corresponding to the time window is 500 Hz, ensuring that the low, medium and high frequencies can be accurately observed. The Morlet wavelet is selected to perform time-frequency transformation on the normalized theoretical current traveling wave. The decomposition scale is 2000. The time spectrum at the 2 kHz frequency is extracted as shown in Figure 6. In Figure 6, the left part is the MWT result diagram and the right part is the enlarged diagram of the MWT result.
[0228] The time spectrum of MWT in Figure 6 was post-processed using TSST (Time Redistribution Synchronous Squeeze Transform Postprocessing), and the result is shown in Figure 7. In Figure 7, the left side is the TSST result image, and the right side is a magnified view of the TSST result. The diffused energy effectively converges near the mutation point, but diffusion still exists, making it impossible to accurately obtain the mutation time corresponding to the mutation point. Then, WTMSST was used for ten fixed-point iterations, as shown in Figure 8. In Figure 8, the left side is the WTMSST result image, and the right side is a magnified view of the WTMSST result. It was found that there is almost no energy diffused along the time direction near the mutation point, and the energy converges significantly, which is consistent with the theory in Part III.
[0229] Repeat the above steps to extract the time points and energy values corresponding to the energy concentration areas of the theoretical waveform and simulated waveform (the simulated waveform is the actual waveform (PSCAD waveform) mentioned earlier) at a frequency of 2 kHz in the WTMSST results, and normalize the energy values. The extracted time points are the arrival times corresponding to the abrupt change points. In order to better reflect the changing trend of the waveform, use equation (45) to obtain the relationship between the changes before and after the abrupt change points, and obtain the time points and energy values related to the changing trend, as shown in Figure 9. In Figure 9, the upper left part is the WTMSST result diagram of the fault traveling wave calculated based on the improved Berylon model, the upper right part is the arrival time extraction diagram of the fault traveling wave calculated based on the improved Berylon model, the lower left part is the WTMSST result diagram of the actual fault traveling wave, and the lower right part is the arrival time extraction diagram of the actual fault traveling wave.
[0230] Due to the influence of group delay on the accuracy of waveform mutation point extraction, there are differences in the time and energy value corresponding to the mutation point. The arrival time is fed into a random forest for prediction correction, and the predicted value is reconstructed using equation (46). The result is shown in Figure 10. In Figure 10, the left part is the random forest prediction, and the right part is the waveform reconstruction. Repeat the above steps to obtain the reconstructed current traveling waves at two other frequencies. The arrival time is fitted by the weighted least squares method (47), and the result is shown in Figure 11. The reconstructed waveform is input into the reference waveform library for tracking search. First, coarse positioning is performed according to equation (49) to determine the approximate fault range. The ranges with high similarity are further compared, and the range with the highest similarity is selected as the fault range. The specific comprehensive similarity is shown in Table 3.
[0231] Table 3: Sub-interval Comprehensive Similarity
[0232]
[0233] At this point, the three sub-intervals with the highest overall similarity are (744.9 km, 745.2 km], (745.2 km, 745.5 km], and (745.5 km, 745.8 km]. The current traveling wave is then compared with the three reference waveforms within these three sub-intervals, and the interval corresponding to the reference waveform with the highest overall similarity is selected as the fault interval. Since the overall similarity is highest and consistent at the endpoint 745.5 km of the two fault intervals (745.2 km, 745.5 km] and (745.5 km, 745.8 km], it is determined that the fault location is within the overlapping interval R(s). Further comparison with the reference waveforms within the overlapping interval R(s) using formula (51) is then used, and the endpoint value corresponding to the reference waveform with the highest overall similarity within the overlapping interval R(s) is selected to determine the final fault interval. At this point, the overall similarity between the current traveling wave and the left endpoint 745.49 km of the overlapping interval is 0.8472, and the similarity with the right endpoint 745.51 km is... The overall similarity of km is 0.8457, which is closer to the fault interval corresponding to the left endpoint. The final fault interval is (745.2 km, 745.5 km], which is consistent with the theoretically set fault interval.

[0242] This invention provides a fault location method and system for multi-terminal hybrid DC transmission systems. It improves upon the traditional Berylon model, enabling it to fully characterize distributed parameter lines and extrapolate theoretical wave processes under hypothetical fault scenarios, thus allowing for the calculation of line dispersion at different frequencies. It utilizes a time-redistribution multi-synchronous compression transform algorithm to process the time-frequency distribution of wavelet variations, obtaining the time-frequency spectrum of energy concentration at a fixed frequency. This accurately acquires the arrival time at a fixed frequency, reducing errors caused by traditional time-frequency analysis methods such as wavelet transform and Fourier transform when processing strong frequency-varying signals. Furthermore, the accuracy is further improved after random forest correction. Simultaneously, the arrival time group is reconstructed to obtain reconstructed current traveling waves, improving tracking accuracy. The reconstructed current traveling waves at different fault locations are integrated to obtain a reference waveform library. The fault location is estimated using matching and tracking principles. Overall, the ranging error can be controlled below 1 km. Additionally, the ranging performance of this invention is unaffected by transition resistance.
