Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power system harmonic source tracing technology, specifically relating to a method for determining the impact of harmonic source type on monitoring point attribution in a power grid. Background Technology
[0002] In power systems, with the rapid growth in the scale and number of nonlinear devices connected to the grid, harmonic pollution has become increasingly serious, posing a significant threat to the safe, stable, and economical operation of the power grid.
[0003] Existing technologies face two major challenges in analyzing the harmonic source impact of a single monitoring point:
[0004] First, there are many types of harmonic sources with significant differences in characteristics. There are more than fourteen major categories of harmonic sources alone, and with the differences in technical approaches among different manufacturers, a large number of subcategories have been derived. The spectral characteristics of various harmonic sources are different, which makes it difficult to determine which harmonic source dominates the monitoring point.
[0005] Secondly, harmonic monitoring data exhibits characteristics of multiple parameters and large volume, making it difficult to process efficiently using traditional analysis methods. Taking a three-phase power supply monitoring point as an example, the total harmonic monitoring data at a single moment includes hundreds of indicators, covering fundamental voltage, current, active power, reactive power, voltage and current amplitudes and phases of each harmonic and interharmonic, active and reactive power of each harmonic, and key parameters such as total harmonic voltage distortion rate (THDU) and total harmonic current distortion rate (THDI). Traditional analysis methods based on harmonic statistical reports are insufficient for efficiently processing massive amounts of multi-dimensional measurement data, and even more so for accurately extracting effective features for harmonic source identification, thus making it difficult to quickly determine which harmonic source dominates the monitoring point. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention proposes a method for determining the impact of power grid harmonic source types on monitoring points. It aims to solve the problem that existing technologies struggle to uniformly process harmonic sources due to their diverse types and significant differences in characteristics. At the same time, it abandons the traditional analysis method that relies on harmonic statistical reports and cannot effectively extract features from massive, multi-dimensional monitoring data. This method achieves unified feature processing for different types of harmonic sources and accurately determines whether each type of harmonic source is the dominant harmonic source of the monitoring point.

[0045] After data collection, identify and output the data of the last window that is in a stable operating state:
[0046] S2.1: The j The window data for acquiring the harmonic monitoring data sequence is obtained next. j ≥1, and an integer; two windows are used each time: a base window and a sliding window. j The length of the reference window taken next is:
[0047] In the formula, w 0 indicates the initial window length. w 0 represents a positive integer, and the start time of the initial window is set to 0.t 0; a This indicates the set coefficient, set to 1 / 2; the first... j The start time of the reference window is set to t 0, consistent with the start time of the initial window; the first j The length of the sliding window selected this time is a constant value: oh 0;th j The starting time of the next sliding window selection is: j The last moment of the reference window;

The data for the last window in a stable operating state is: j The reference window data is taken next; if Then the first j The sliding window selected this time is the one in a stable operating state;
[0050] S2.4: If the first j If the sliding window selected in the next step is a window in an unstable operating state, then the output of the first step will be... j The reference window data taken next is the data of the last window that is in a stable operating state; if the first... j If the selected sliding window is in a stable operating state, then S2.1-S2.3 are executed repeatedly. Each iteration adds the number of times the reference window has been acquired, and the length of the reference window changes accordingly, resulting in a corresponding sliding window. The start time of this sliding window is the end time of the acquired reference window; this process continues until the... j+ The window selected for the Rth time in an unstable sliding window state is output as the th window. j+ The reference window data is taken R times, where R is a positive integer greater than 2.
[0051] S3: For the window data output in step S2, record its start and end times, and obtain the data between the start and end times according to the sampling frequency of the harmonic monitoring device. nEach sampling point (e.g., if the harmonic monitoring device samples once per minute, then a 100-minute time window will have 100 sampling points); combined with the time period obtained in step S2 T Internal harmonic current I h The 1st to 50th harmonic currents at each sampling point are obtained by interpolation, and a normalized vector for each sampling point is constructed.
[0052] Then the first x sampling points ( x ∈[1 ,n The normalized vector of (where ] is an integer) is:
[0053]
[0054] In the formula, b hx Indicates the first x Each sampling point h The normalized value of the +1st harmonic current is given by the following formula: , I h+1,x Indicates the first x sampling points h +1st harmonic current; I 1,x Indicates the first x The fundamental current at each sampling point.

[0058] If the first x The normalized vector of the nth sampling point and the nth sampling point in step S1 k If the inner product value of the eigenvectors of a harmonic source is maximized, then the first... k The harmonic source was determined to be the first x The dominant harmonic source at each sampling point;
[0059] If the inner product of the normalized vector and the eigenvectors of the two or more harmonic sources in step S1 is the largest, then all two or more harmonic sources are considered as the first... x The dominant harmonic source at each sampling point.
[0060] S5: Repeat step S4 to obtain the normalized vectors of the remaining sampling points in sequence. Calculate the inner product of each vector with the harmonic source feature vectors of each type of harmonic source in step S1, and determine the dominant harmonic source type for each sampling point. Count the occurrence frequency of each type of harmonic source in all sampling points, and determine the harmonic source type with the highest occurrence frequency as the monitoring point.

[0061] For example: if the dominant harmonic source at the first sampling point is Class A, then the second to... n If the dominant harmonic source at each sampling point is Class B, then statistical analysis shows that the monitoring points... M The dominant harmonic source is a Class B harmonic source.
[0062] If there are two or more types of harmonic sources with the same number of sampling points, then the monitoring point M is determined to be affected by the multiple types of harmonic sources simultaneously.
[0063] For example: Suppose there are 25 sampling points in total. The dominant harmonic sources of sampling points 1-10 are of type A, those of sampling points 11-20 are of type B, and those of sampling points 21-25 are of type C. Statistical analysis shows that the dominant harmonic sources at monitoring point M are both type A and type B harmonic sources.
[0064] Calculation example:
[0065] To verify the accuracy of this scheme in identifying dominant harmonic sources, a monitoring point affected by harmonics was selected to conduct harmonic source tracing. This monitoring point is located at a company in XX City, and is situated on the low-voltage outgoing line of the main transformer.
[0066] After obtaining harmonic measurement data, this solution was applied to trace the harmonic sources, accurately identifying the dominant harmonic source as a six-pulse rectifier. On-site investigation confirmed that the company did indeed have a six-pulse rectifier-equipped medium-frequency induction furnace.
[0067] The results show that the proposed scheme has high accuracy and reliability in identifying dominant harmonic sources in practical engineering.
