Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of traction power supply system data processing technology, specifically to a method and apparatus for generating PV curves in a traction power supply system based on regenerative braking. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of the economy in mountainous areas, numerous mountain railways are being planned in western China. High-altitude mountain railways typically have significant elevation differences, sometimes exceeding 3000 meters, inevitably leading to long, steep slopes. Locomotives need to operate at full power uphill, while regenerative braking is generally used downhill. Regenerative braking refers to the process where, during deceleration or descent, the traction motor converts into a generator, producing braking torque and feeding excess electrical energy back to the traction network. On long slopes, due to the continuous effect of gravity, the locomotive remains in a regenerative braking state for extended periods, continuously feeding power back to the traction network, resulting in a negative active power. However, this braking energy causes a voltage rise in the traction network, potentially leading to discharge through the train roof gap and brake failure. When this voltage exceeds the 29kV specified by railway standards, it may cause the onboard circuit breaker to trip, affecting normal railway operation. This phenomenon presents a contradiction in the design of traction power supply systems on long, steep slopes: when locomotives operate at full power uphill, the traction grid voltage decreases, and the traction grid bus voltage should be kept as high as possible; conversely, when locomotives brake downhill, the returned power may raise the traction grid voltage, and the traction grid bus voltage should be kept as low as possible. Existing research has not fully investigated the locomotive voltage rise characteristics, and studies on the PV curves of the traction power supply system are limited to traction conditions, without in-depth research on the PV curves under regenerative braking conditions. Therefore, studying the voltage rise mechanism of the traction grid-locomotive system on long, steep slopes has significant practical application value for the planning and design of the traction power supply system's bus voltage, transformers, and traction grid parameters.

(Reference) Figure 1 It can be seen that the method for generating the PV curve of the traction power supply system based on regenerative braking can include:

[0068] Step S110: Construct the expressions for the locomotive's active power and reactive power.

[0069] In one embodiment of this application, expressions for the active power and reactive power of the locomotive can be constructed.

[0070] A traction substation, also known as a traction power station, is a facility that converts high-voltage electricity from the local power grid into single-phase alternating current suitable for electric locomotives. The busbar is a conductor within the traction substation that collects and distributes electrical energy. The distance between the locomotive and the traction substation busbar represents the electrical distance along the railway line from the locomotive to the traction substation to which it supplies power. The locomotive voltage amplitude is a function of both the locomotive's power and the power supply distance. With the target distance (the distance between the locomotive and the traction substation busbar) fixed, the locomotive voltage amplitude can be obtained based on the locomotive's active and reactive power.

[0071] For example, when simulating and solving the PV curve under regenerative braking conditions before the locomotive is actually in operation, the user can set the target distance.

[0072] For example, the expression for the active power of a locomotive may include:

[0073] ;

Indicates the locomotive voltage amplitude. Indicates the second intermediate variable. Indicates the phase voltage amplitude of the power grid source. Indicates the phase angle of the locomotive voltage. Indicates the third intermediate variable. This indicates the resistance of the traction transformer. This represents the resistance per unit length of the T-line. This represents the resistance per unit length of the R-line. This represents the mutual resistance per unit length between the T-line and the R-line. Indicates the distance to the target. Indicates the reactance of the traction transformer. This represents the reactance per unit length of the T-line. This represents the reactance per unit length of the R-line. This represents the mutual reactance per unit length between the T-line and the R-line. This represents the equivalent reactance.

[0083] For example, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 According to Thevenin's theorem, the upstream power grid can be equivalently replaced by an ideal three-phase power source and reactances in series. This represents the equivalent reactance. This indicates the V / V traction transformer turns ratio. This represents the equivalent impedance of the low-voltage side of the traction transformer. This indicates the distance between the locomotive and the traction depot busbar. This represents the impedance per unit length of line T. R represents the impedance per unit length of the line. This represents the mutual impedance between the T-line and R-line per unit length. The traction network impedance can be calculated using Carson's theory.

[0084] Based on the voltage relationship between the high and low voltage sides of the traction transformer, the first expression can be obtained:

[0085] ;

[0086] in, express Figure 4 The voltage at midpoint 3, express Figure 4 The voltage at midpoint 4, express Figure 4 Voltage at midpoint 5.

[0087] Based on the relationship between the high and low voltage sides of the traction transformer, the second expression can be obtained:

[0088] ;

[0089] in, express Figure 4 The current at midpoint 1, express Figure 4 The current at midpoint 7, express Figure 4 The current at midpoint 2.

[0090] Applying Ohm's law to the high-voltage side of the traction transformer, we can obtain the third and fourth expressions. The third expression can be expressed as:

[0091] ;

[0092] The fourth expression can be represented as:

[0093] ;

[0094] in, express Figure 4 The voltage at midpoint 1, Represents the imaginary part of a complex number. express Figure 4 Voltage at midpoint 2.

[0095] Substituting the third and fourth expressions into the first expression, we get the fifth expression:

[0096] .

[0097] Applying Ohm's law to the low-voltage side of the traction transformer, we can obtain the sixth and seventh expressions. The sixth expression can be expressed as:

[0098] ;

[0099] The seventh expression can be represented as:

[0100] ;

[0101] in, express Figure 4 The voltage difference between the voltage at midpoint 7 and the voltage at point 8 This indicates the resistance of the traction transformer. Indicates the reactance of the traction transformer. This indicates the impedance of the traction transformer. This represents the resistance per unit length of the T-line. This represents the reactance per unit length of the T-line. This represents the impedance per unit length of the T-line. This represents the resistance per unit length of the R-line. This represents the reactance per unit length of the R-line. This represents the impedance per unit length of the R-line. This represents the mutual resistance per unit length between the T-line and the R-line. This represents the mutual reactance per unit length between the T-line and the R-line. This represents the mutual impedance per unit length between the T-line and the R-line.

[0102] Substituting the sixth and seventh expressions into the fifth expression, we obtain the eighth expression:

[0103] .

[0104] Assuming the upstream power grid is symmetrical, then the ninth expression can be obtained:

[0105] .

[0106] Substituting the ninth expression into the eighth expression and taking its conjugate, we obtain the tenth expression:

[0107] ;

[0108] in, express Figure 4 The conjugate complex number of the current at midpoint 7.

[0109] The locomotive resumption rate can then be expressed as:

[0110] ;

[0111] in, Indicates active power. This indicates reactive power.

[0112] Based on the expression for the complex power of the locomotive, we can obtain the expressions for the locomotive's active power and reactive power.

[0113] Step S120: Determine the feasible solution expression and the infeasible solution expression based on the locomotive's active power expression and reactive power expression.

[0114] In one embodiment of this application, feasible and infeasible solution expressions can be obtained by performing algebraic operations on the locomotive's active power expression and reactive power expression.

[0115] Optionally, the active power expression and reactive power expression of the locomotive can be rearranged, squared, and then added together to obtain the first solution expression, which can be expressed as:

[0116] ;

[0117] By substituting the square of the locomotive voltage amplitude, we obtain the second solution expression, which can be expressed as:

[0118] ;

[0119] in, , This refers to the amount of replacement.

[0120] Based on the second solution expression, feasible and infeasible solution expressions are obtained.

[0121] Feasible solution expressions can include:

[0122] ;

[0123] ;

[0124] Infeasible solution expressions can include:

[0125] ;

[0126] ;

[0127] in, This indicates a feasible solution. Indicates an infeasible solution. This represents the first solution. This indicates the second solution.

[0128] It should be noted that a feasible solution, also known as a high-pressure solution, is the equilibrium point where the system can operate stably. An infeasible solution, also known as a low-pressure solution, is the unstable equilibrium point of the system.

[0129] Step S130: Based on the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, a PV curve including regenerative braking is generated with the locomotive active power less than 0 as the PV curve generation condition, and a PV curve including traction is generated with the locomotive active power greater than 0 as the condition.

[0130] Among them, a locomotive active power of less than 0 indicates regenerative braking condition, and a locomotive active power of greater than 0 indicates traction condition.

[0131] In one embodiment of this application, after obtaining the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, a PV curve including regenerative braking conditions can be generated based on the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, with the locomotive active power being less than 0 as the PV curve generation condition. Alternatively, a PV curve including traction conditions can be generated based on the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, with the locomotive active power being greater than 0 as the PV curve generation condition. That is, a PV curve including regenerative braking conditions can be generated independently based on the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, with the locomotive active power being less than 0 as the condition; a PV curve including traction conditions can be generated independently based on the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, with the locomotive active power being greater than 0 as the condition; and a PV curve including both regenerative braking and traction conditions can be generated based on the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, with both the locomotive active power being less than 0 and the active power being greater than 0 as conditions.

[0132] Based on the above feasible and infeasible solution expressions, it can be found that the locomotive voltage amplitude is a function of two variables: the locomotive's active power and the target distance, that is:

[0133] ;

[0134] If the target distance is fixed, the relationship between the locomotive's active power and the locomotive's voltage amplitude can be obtained, which is the PV curve.

[0135] It should be noted that in the process of obtaining the PV curve based on the feasible and infeasible solution expressions, under the premise of a fixed target distance, the locomotive active power value can be directly set and substituted into the feasible or infeasible solution expression to obtain the locomotive voltage amplitude. This simplifies the PV curve solution process, achieves a fast solution effect, and improves the efficiency of PV curve generation.

[0136] Optionally, step S140, which generates a PV curve including regenerative braking conditions based on feasible and infeasible solution expressions and with the locomotive's active power being less than 0 as the PV curve generation condition, may include steps S131 to S133.

[0137] Step S131: Determine the equivalent resistance calculated by the power factor and determine the target conditions based on the equivalent resistance calculated by the power factor.

[0138] Among them, the objective condition characterizes whether there are extreme points in the PV curve of the feasible solution under the regenerative braking condition.

[0139] Target conditions may include:

[0140] When the equivalent resistance calculated by the power factor is less than or equal to 0, the PV curve of the locomotive active power is less than 0 and monotonically increasing in the first interval; the left endpoint of the first interval is the left limit point of the active power of the PV curve, the right endpoint of the first interval is 0, and the first interval is a left-closed and right-open interval.

[0141] When the equivalent resistance calculated by the power factor is greater than 0, the PV curve of the locomotive active power is less than 0. It is monotonically increasing in the first sub-interval and monotonically decreasing in the second sub-interval. The first interval includes the first sub-interval and the second sub-interval. The first sub-interval and the second sub-interval are obtained according to the extreme point determination formula.

[0142] In the process of solving the PV curve, the operator needs to pre-set simulation parameters such as the locomotive's active power and power factor. The locomotive's reactive power can be determined based on the power factor and the locomotive's active power.

[0143] For example, when the power factor lags, the locomotive reactive power expression is as follows:

[0144] ;

[0145] in, This represents the locomotive power factor.

[0146] For example, when the power factor is leading, the locomotive reactive power expression is as follows:

[0147] ;

[0148] The system short-circuit capacity can be set as follows: The following relationship exists between the system short-circuit capacity and the equivalent reactance:

[0149] ;

[0150] The formula for determining the equivalent reactance can then be expressed as:

[0151] ;

[0152] in, Indicates the system short-circuit capacity. Represents equivalent reactance. This indicates the amplitude of the phase voltage of the power grid source.

[0153] For example, the expression for low-voltage no-load voltage can be expressed as:

[0154] ;

[0155] in, This indicates the low-voltage open-circuit voltage.

[0156] For example, when the power factor lags, the formulas for determining the locomotive reactive power, equivalent reactance, low-voltage side no-load voltage, the second intermediate quantity expression, and the third intermediate quantity expression are substituted into the expression of the first solution in the feasible solution expression to obtain the first solution replacement formula. The first solution replacement formula can be expressed as:

[0157] ;

[0158] in, This represents the equivalent resistance calculated based on the power factor. This indicates the intermediate conversion amount.

[0159] The equivalent resistance calculated using the power factor can be expressed as:

[0160] ;

[0161] Intermediate conversion quantities can be expressed as:

[0162] ;

[0163] The first and second substitution quantities can be expressed as:

[0164] ;

[0165] in, Indicates the first substitute quantity. This indicates the second substitute quantity.

[0166] For example, when the power factor is leading, the formulas for determining the locomotive reactive power, equivalent reactance, low-voltage side no-load voltage, the second intermediate quantity expression, and the third intermediate quantity expression are substituted into the expression of the first solution in the feasible solution expression to obtain the first solution replacement formula. The first solution replacement formula can be expressed as:

[0167] ;

[0168] in, This represents the equivalent resistance calculated based on the power factor. This indicates the intermediate conversion amount.

[0169] The equivalent resistance calculated using the power factor can be expressed as:

[0170] ;

[0171] Intermediate conversion quantities can be expressed as:

[0172] ;

[0173] The first and second substitution quantities can be expressed as:

[0174] ;

[0175] in, Indicates the first substitute quantity. This indicates the second substitute quantity.

[0176] For example, analyzing the first solution expression, since This represents the square of the locomotive voltage amplitude, therefore Since it is a non-negative real number, we need to examine the intermediate equation in the first solution substitution formula:

[0177] ;

[0178] The intermediate equation is a... The discriminant of the quadratic equation in one variable is:

[0179] ;

[0180] The two roots of the intermediate equation are:

[0181] ;

[0182] To ensure If there are real solutions, then we need to guarantee .

[0183] and These are the left and right limit points of the PV curve. In traditional power systems, only the positive power limit point P2 on the right is considered, while the negative power limit point P1 on the left is rarely given attention.

[0184] When the locomotive is in regenerative braking mode, i.e., P < 0, by differentiating the active power P using the first solution substitution formula and setting the derivative equal to 0, we can obtain the active power derivative formula:

[0185] ;

[0186] The above formula can then be further simplified to:

[0187] ;

[0188] because Analysis shows that whether the simplified active power derivative formula has a solution depends on the equivalent resistance calculated from the power factor. The sign of the power factor. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss two cases based on whether the power factor is leading or lagging.

[0189] When the locomotive power factor lags, P < 0 under regenerative braking conditions. The expression for the equivalent resistance calculated from the power factor is as follows:

[0190] ;

[0191] 1) If Then the simplified formula for the active power derivative has no solution, and the active power derivative formula... This indicates the first solution. It is monotonically increasing on the interval [P1, 0);

[0192] 2) If Then the simplified formula for the derivative of active power has a unique negative solution:

[0193] ;

[0194] And there are

[0195] ;

[0196] The above analysis shows that when There must exist a negative real number of active power on the PV curve. This allows the locomotive voltage to rise to its maximum value. Substituting the unique negative solution of the simplified active power derivative formula into the feasible solution expression, we can obtain this maximum value as:

[0197] ;

[0198] In addition, when Sometimes, ,show In the interval The upper part is monotonically increasing, that is... It is monotonically increasing in the first interval. When Sometimes, ,show In the interval The upper part is monotonically decreasing, that is... It is monotonically decreasing in the second interval.

[0199] Step S132: Based on the objective conditions and feasible solution expressions, and taking the locomotive active power less than 0 as the PV curve generation condition, generate PV curves including feasible solutions under regenerative braking conditions.

[0200] In one embodiment of this application, a PV curve including a feasible solution under regenerative braking conditions can be generated based on the target conditions and feasible solution expressions, with the locomotive active power being less than 0 as the PV curve generation condition.

[0201] Based on the analysis in step S131, the PV curve of the locomotive voltage can be plotted. The sign of the PV curve can be divided into two groups:

[0202] (1) When At that time, the PV curve is as follows Figure 5 (a) and Figure 5 As shown in (b). From 5(a), it can be seen that the entire PV curve can be composed of two curves, upper and lower. The red curve corresponds to a feasible solution, and the blue curve corresponds to an infeasible solution. From 5(b), it can also be seen that the entire PV curve can be considered as composed of two curves, left and right. The orange curve on the left represents the PV curve under regenerative braking, and the green curve on the right represents the PV curve under traction. It can be seen that in this case, the PV curve under regenerative braking and the PV curve under traction have similar patterns; both gradually decrease the voltage as the power increases, and there is a limiting power (P1 under regenerative braking and P2 under traction).

[0203] (2) When The PV curves are shown in Figures 5(c) and (d). It can be observed that the PV curve under regenerative braking conditions exhibits a different variation pattern compared to the PV curve under traction conditions. Under regenerative braking conditions, as the braking power increases, the locomotive voltage first increases and then decreases, exhibiting a limiting voltage. This indicates that a higher braking power does not necessarily lead to a greater rise in locomotive voltage. When the locomotive braking power is greater than... At that time, the locomotive voltage will actually decrease, and there will be a limit to the braking power. Because excessively high locomotive voltage can lead to traction shutdown or reduced power operation, standards stipulate that locomotive voltage must not exceed 29kV. This necessitates that traction power supply systems distributed on long, steep slopes must consider the control of the low-voltage bus voltage of the traction transformer. Setting the bus voltage too high can easily cause the locomotive voltage to exceed the upper limit, while setting it too low can easily cause the traction network voltage to exceed the lower limit. Therefore, the proposed locomotive PV curve formula can provide theoretical support for the design of the traction network bus voltage on long, steep slopes.

[0204] It should be noted that the power factor of the locomotive is generally between -0.95 and -1 under regenerative braking conditions. Therefore, in most cases, only the situation in 5(c) will occur.

[0205] When the locomotive power factor is leading, the following formula applies:

[0206] ;

[0207] at this time, The situation is similar to that of locomotive power factor lag (2). That is, there must be a negative real active power PMP on the PV curve that can make the locomotive voltage rise to the maximum value. The PV curves are shown in 5 (c) and (d), and there will be no monotonically decreasing situation as in 5 (a) and (b).

[0208] Step S133: Based on the infeasible solution expression, and taking the locomotive active power less than 0 as the PV curve generation condition, generate PV curves including infeasible solutions under regenerative braking conditions.

[0209] In one embodiment of this application, a PV curve including infeasible solutions under regenerative braking conditions can be generated based on the expression of infeasible solutions, with the locomotive active power being less than 0 as the PV curve generation condition.

[0210] After obtaining the PV curve, the peak (maximum power point) of the PV curve is determined. When the train load demand exceeds the power at this point, the system will lose stability, and the voltage will drop sharply. Analyzing the distance between the current operating point and the peak can assess the voltage stability margin of the system.

[0211] For example, to verify the accuracy of the locomotive voltage PV curve, a system was built as follows: Figure 6 The hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation platform shown is a real-time circuit simulator based on an FPGA (NI PXIe-FPGA-7868R), capable of simulating various power supplies, different power grid types, and different IGBT topologies. The real-time digital controller (NI PXIe-8821-7846R) is a practical industrial controller based on a rapid control prototype, responsible for running the control algorithm, acquiring circuit voltage and current, and outputting digital control signals. I / O boards facilitate the analog / digital signal connection between the real-time circuit simulator and the controller. An oscilloscope displays various voltage and current waveforms during system operation. The host computer, equipped with StarSim software, can display, record, and save all data during system operation.

[0212] Hardware-in-the-loop experimental system architecture as follows Figure 7 As shown, the system consists of a three-phase power supply, a V / V traction transformer, sub-traction network 1, sub-traction network 2, and an AC-DC-AC locomotive. The lengths of sub-traction network 1 and sub-traction network 2 can be arbitrarily changed to simulate the relative motion between the locomotive and the traction network. The rectifier uses transient direct current control, and the inverter-motor system uses vector control. During simulation, the motor output power and state (traction or braking) can be changed by altering the external torque of the motor. The main circuit (including the power supply, transformer, traction network, converter, and motor) runs in a real-time circuit simulator with a simulation step size of 1µs. The locomotive's control section runs in a real-time digital controller with a sampling frequency of 20kHz.

[0213] Six different power supply distances D were set up in the experiment (increasing from 5km to 30km in 5km increments). Under each operating condition, the locomotive's active power P was varied, and the power factor control was set to lag. The upstream short-circuit capacity of the traction power supply system was set to 1500MVA. The traction transformer parameters are shown in Table 1, with the rail center as the coordinate origin, and the traction network parameters are shown in Table 2. The obtained PV curve simulation results were compared with the theoretical curves, and the average voltage error under each operating condition was statistically analyzed. The results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown in Table 3, it can be seen that the trend of the theoretically calculated curve and the trend of the semi-physical experimental data are very consistent with the changes in the locomotive's active power, with errors only appearing at two extreme points. The average voltage amplitude error under each operating condition does not exceed 0.2kV, and the average relative error does not exceed 0.8%, verifying the accuracy of the first solution substitution formula in the embodiments of this application. Furthermore, during the semi-physical simulation, when the locomotive power reaches near the extreme power, the system experiences voltage collapse and divergence, such as... Figure 9As shown, the accuracy of the limiting power in the extreme point determination formula is proven. Furthermore, it can be seen that as the power supply distance D increases, the limiting power supply of the traction power supply system decreases, but the maximum lifting voltage of the locomotive under regenerative braking increases.
