Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of molecular dynamics and material aging simulation, specifically to a method and system for analyzing the insulation aging mechanism of ultra-high voltage converter transformer side outgoing line devices. Background Technology With the rapid construction and development of ultra-high voltage direct current (UHVDC) transmission projects, converter transformers, as core equipment, are crucial to the safety and stability of the entire power grid due to their operational reliability. The insulation materials of valve-side outgoing line devices are subjected to high electric fields, large currents, and complex thermal stresses for extended periods, making them prone to aging and deterioration, which can lead to insulation failures and severely impact equipment lifespan and system reliability. Therefore, accurate assessment and mechanistic research into the physicochemical changes of insulation material aging are of great significance.
[0002] Traditional methods for assessing the aging of insulating materials often rely on periodic power outage tests, physicochemical property tests, or partial discharge detection. These methods often have limitations, such as long testing cycles, damage to samples, and inability to reflect changes in the internal state of the material in real time. Furthermore, the aging of insulating materials is a complex process involving the coupling of physical, chemical, and electrical properties, and it is difficult to reveal its microscopic mechanisms by relying solely on macroscopic parameters.
[0003] Currently, although some studies have attempted to study the aging of insulating materials using molecular simulation methods, these are mostly limited to simulations under single-scale or ideal conditions, lacking effective verification with experimental data and making it difficult to promote their application in practical engineering. Existing technologies have not yet established an aging mechanism model for insulating materials that can integrate macroscopic-microscopic multi-scale information and combine it with experimental verification, resulting in insufficient understanding of the insulation aging process and limited assessment accuracy.
[0004] The existing invention patent application document CN117761472A, entitled "A Method for Aging Assessment of Insulating Materials Based on Polarization Integral Current and IRC," describes a method that obtains a key first time constant by integrating the polarization current and then uses this as a basis to perform a third-order exponential fitting on the IRC, thereby calculating the aging factor A, which characterizes the degree of aging. However, this existing method is time-consuming to test, requires high environmental stability, is easily affected by multiple factors such as temperature, and is difficult to comprehensively reflect the complex aging conditions of insulating materials across multiple mechanisms and scales.
[0005] The existing invention patent application document CN111766478A, entitled "A Method for Aging Assessment of Insulation Materials of High-Voltage Power Equipment Based on Cumulative Charge Characteristics," applies the DC current integration method to assess insulation aging. It evaluates the performance of the insulation material by measuring and comparing the initial charge amount with the cumulative charge amount at a specific time after pressurization. However, the effectiveness of this existing method largely depends on the selection of the specific time point; an inappropriate selection may lead to misjudgment of the aging state.
[0006] In summary, existing technologies suffer from low accuracy in molecular dynamics simulations and low predictive accuracy and reliability of aging mechanism models for insulating materials, which restricts the accuracy of aging state assessment for insulating materials. Summary of the Invention
