[0059] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0060] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0061] This invention discloses a method and related device for selecting a transformer pressure relief valve. It comprehensively considers multiple factors such as voltage level, maximum oil level in the oil conservator, tank cover height, and temperature parameters. First, it accurately calculates the installation height range corresponding to each model in the pressure relief valve parameter library. Then, it compares multiple models in parallel and automatically selects the optimal recommended model. Through algorithmic analysis and comprehensive consideration, this invention ensures stable and reliable operation of the pressure relief valve across the entire temperature range. Compared to manual selection, it not only effectively avoids human error but also improves selection efficiency and accuracy.

[0062] See Figure 1 The present invention discloses a flowchart of a method for selecting a transformer pressure relief valve, the method comprising the following steps:

[0063] Step S101: Obtain the basic parameters and temperature parameters of the transformer.

[0064] The basic parameters of a transformer include at least: voltage level and maximum oil level in the oil conservator. and lid height .

[0065] In practical applications, the basic parameters of a transformer may also include oil weight. The specific amount depends on the actual needs.

[0066] The temperature parameters of a transformer include the minimum operating temperature and the maximum operating temperature, or the temperature parameters of a transformer may only include the real-time temperature.

[0067] Step S102: Determine the maximum transient pressure that the oil tank can withstand based on the voltage level.

[0068] In practical applications, different voltage levels and different maximum transient pressures that the oil tank can withstand are preset. The correspondence is illustrated with the following examples:

[0069] 110kV-220kV: =200kPa;

[0070] 330kV-500kV: =250kPa;

[0071] 500kV-1000kV: =300kPa.

[0072] By matching the obtained voltage level with each voltage level in the preset correspondence, the matching voltage level is found, and then the maximum transient pressure that the oil tank can withstand corresponding to that voltage level is determined.

[0073] Step S103: Calculate the insulating oil density corresponding to the temperature parameter using the insulating oil density-temperature relationship function, and obtain the static pressure per unit height based on the insulating oil density.

[0074] In practical applications, the density-temperature relationship function of insulating oil can be obtained by calling the insulating oil parameter library.

[0075] In this embodiment, the insulating oil density-temperature relationship function is a linear function, expressed as follows:

[0076] (1);

[0077] In the formula, Representing temperature parameters The corresponding insulating oil density at that time, This indicates the density of the insulating oil at 20℃. =895kg / m 3 , Indicates the coefficient of volume expansion. =0.00065 / ℃.

[0078] Correspondingly, the static pressure per unit height is equal to the density of the insulating oil. With gravitational acceleration The product of =9.8m / s 2 That is, the static pressure per unit height can be expressed as .

[0079] To achieve unit standardization, the calculated static pressure per unit height can be... Divide by 1000 to obtain the final static pressure, the unit of which is kPa / m.

[0080] Step S104: For each pressure relief valve model in the pressure relief valve parameter library, process the highest oil level of the oil tank, the maximum transient pressure that the oil tank can withstand, the static pressure, and the closing pressure and opening pressure corresponding to the pressure relief valve model to obtain the theoretical upper limit and theoretical lower limit of the installation height corresponding to the pressure relief valve model.

[0081] This application pre-sets a pressure relief valve parameter library, which contains at least two pressure relief valve models, as well as the opening pressure and closing pressure corresponding to each pressure relief valve model.

[0082] Different pressure relief valve models have different opening pressures. For example, the opening pressures of three different pressure relief valve models are 55 kPa, 70 kPa and 85 kPa respectively.

[0083] Different pressure relief valve models have different closing pressures. For example, the closing pressures of three different pressure relief valve models are 29.5 kPa, 37.5 kPa, and 45.5 kPa, respectively.

[0084] In this embodiment, the theoretical upper limit and theoretical lower limit of the installation height refer to the upper and lower limits of the installation height of the pressure relief valve model, determined based on the closing pressure and opening pressure corresponding to the pressure relief valve model.

[0085] Step S105: Correct the theoretical lower limit of the installation height based on the height of the box cover to obtain the actual lower limit of the installation height.

[0086] The revised expression for the actual lower limit of the installation height is as follows:

[0087] (2);

[0088] In the formula, Indicates the model number of the pressure relief valve. Actual lower limit of installation height This indicates the theoretical lower limit of the installation height. Indicates the height of the lid.

[0089] Step S106: Take the theoretical upper limit of the installation height as the actual lower limit of the installation height, and determine the length of the installation height range corresponding to the pressure relief valve model based on the actual lower limit of the installation height and the actual lower limit of the installation height.

[0090] This embodiment is based on the pressure relief valve model. Actual installation height limit and the actual lower limit of the installation height Determine the model of the pressure relief valve. Corresponding installation height range length The expression is as follows:

[0091] (3).

[0092] Step S107: Select the model that meets the preset conditions from the pressure relief valve parameter library as the optimal recommended model of the pressure relief valve.

[0093] The preset conditions are: among all pressure relief valve models, select the model with the largest installation height range; or, if there are multiple models with the same and largest installation height range, select the model with the lowest opening pressure.

[0094] In practical applications, when obtaining the various pressure relief valve models from the pressure relief valve parameter library... Corresponding installation height range length Then, compare the installation height range length of each model. Size, and select the installation height range length. The largest model is the optimal recommended model.

[0095] If there are multiple installation height ranges If they are equal and both are the largest models, then the length is determined from the installation height range. Among multiple models that are equal and all are the largest size, select the opening pressure. The smallest model is the optimal recommended model. (Regarding the length within the installation height range...) Among multiple models that are equal and all the largest, the alternative models other than the best recommended model can be sorted according to their corresponding actual allowable installation height range, in descending order of the length of the installation height range, and then output.

[0096] In summary, this invention discloses a method for selecting a transformer pressure relief valve. The method obtains the transformer's basic parameters and temperature parameters. The basic parameters include at least the voltage level, the maximum oil level in the oil conservator, and the tank cover height. The maximum transient pressure the tank can withstand is determined based on the voltage level, and the corresponding insulating oil density is determined based on the temperature parameters, thus obtaining the static pressure per unit height. For each pressure relief valve model in the pressure relief valve parameter library, the maximum oil level in the oil conservator, the maximum transient pressure the tank can withstand, the static pressure, and the corresponding closing and opening pressures of the pressure relief valve model are processed to obtain a theoretical upper limit and a theoretical lower limit for the installation height. The theoretical lower limit is corrected using the tank cover height to obtain the actual lower limit for the installation height. The theoretical upper limit is used as the actual lower limit, and the installation height range length corresponding to the pressure relief valve model is determined based on the actual lower limit. From all pressure relief valve models in the pressure relief valve parameter library, the model with the largest installation height range length is selected as the optimal recommended model; or, if multiple models have the same and largest installation height range lengths, the model with the smallest opening pressure is selected as the optimal recommended model. This invention comprehensively considers multiple factors such as voltage level, maximum oil level in the oil tank, tank cover height, and temperature parameters. It first accurately calculates the installation height range for each model in the pressure relief valve parameter library, then compares multiple models in parallel and automatically selects the optimal recommended model. Through algorithmic analysis and comprehensive consideration, this invention ensures stable and reliable operation of the pressure relief valve across the entire temperature range. Compared to manual selection, it not only effectively avoids human error but also improves selection efficiency and accuracy.

[0218] In summary, this invention discloses a selection device for a transformer pressure relief valve. It acquires basic transformer parameters and temperature parameters, including at least the voltage level, the maximum oil level in the oil conservator, and the tank cover height. Based on the voltage level, it determines the maximum transient pressure the tank can withstand. Based on the temperature parameters, it determines the corresponding insulating oil density, thereby obtaining the static pressure per unit height. For each pressure relief valve model in the pressure relief valve parameter library, it processes the maximum oil level in the oil conservator, the maximum transient pressure the tank can withstand, the static pressure, and the corresponding closing and opening pressures of the pressure relief valve model to obtain a theoretical upper limit and a theoretical lower limit for the installation height. It then corrects the theoretical lower limit for the installation height using the tank cover height to obtain the actual lower limit for the installation height. Using the theoretical upper limit as the actual lower limit, it determines the installation height range length corresponding to the pressure relief valve model. From all pressure relief valve models in the pressure relief valve parameter library, it selects the model with the largest installation height range length as the optimal recommended model; or, if multiple models have the same and largest installation height range lengths, it selects the model with the smallest opening pressure as the optimal recommended model. This invention comprehensively considers multiple factors such as voltage level, maximum oil level in the oil tank, tank cover height, and temperature parameters. It first accurately calculates the installation height range for each model in the pressure relief valve parameter library, then compares multiple models in parallel and automatically selects the optimal recommended model. Through algorithmic analysis and comprehensive consideration, this invention ensures stable and reliable operation of the pressure relief valve across the entire temperature range. Compared to manual selection, it not only effectively avoids human error but also improves selection efficiency and accuracy.
