Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of hydropower relay protection, specifically a method, device, equipment, and medium for intelligent diagnosis of defects in hydropower relay protection. Background Technology
[0002] Hydropower relay protection is a key technology for ensuring the safe operation of hydropower units and power grids. Currently, the setting calculations for hydropower plant relay protection are usually based on the power frequency periodic component, using the nodal admittance method or short-circuit current calculation software to solve for the fault current, and judging whether the protection meets the requirements based on the sensitivity coefficient (the ratio of fault current to protection start current).
[0003] However, during the transient fault process of hydropower units, the short-circuit current exhibits rapid decay characteristics due to factors such as the excitation system response, governor mechanical inertia, and water hammer effect, accompanied by abundant second and third harmonics and low-frequency oscillation components. Existing technologies, when calculating short-circuit current, typically treat the hydropower unit as an equivalent constant potential source or use a simplified subtransient reactance model, neglecting the dynamic process of transient potential decay over time. In sensitivity analysis, calculations are based solely on the fundamental current amplitude, ignoring the impact of harmonic distortion and low-frequency oscillations on the actual sensing quantity of the protection. This deficiency leads to a large deviation between the calculated and actual fault current values, resulting in distorted sensitivity coefficients and consequently unreasonable protection settings: failure to operate may occur when waveform distortion is severe, and maloperation may occur in the selective coordination critical region, seriously affecting the safe and stable operation of hydropower plants and the power grid. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides an intelligent diagnostic method, device, equipment, and medium for hydropower relay protection defects, thereby resolving the issues in the prior art where neglecting transient potential decay and the influence of harmonics and low-frequency oscillations leads to large deviations in fault current calculations, distorted protection sensitivity, and unreasonable setting values.
[0005] This invention provides an intelligent diagnostic method for defects in hydropower relay protection, comprising the following steps:
[0006] Step S1: System Modeling and Fault Point Identification

[0008] Step S2: Short-circuit current calculation
[0009] An equivalent model of transient electromotive force change of hydropower unit is established, and the transient electromotive force decay curve is obtained by solving a set of differential equations. This model is combined with the nodal admittance matrix, and a dynamic impedance compensation factor is introduced. The dynamic impedance compensation factor is based on 1, plus a correction term that is proportional to the square of the real-time short-circuit current and decays exponentially with time. The proportional coefficient and time constant of the correction term are determined according to the current head interval. The fault current is solved using a nodal algorithm.

[0041] Example 1: This example provides an intelligent diagnostic method for defects in hydropower relay protection, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps.
[0042] Step S1: System Modeling and Fault Point Identification
[0043] First, the topology and equipment parameters of the hydropower station are collected. Specifically, the bus connection relationships and turbine generator parameters (including rated voltage) are obtained through the power station monitoring system or offline records.

Rated head High water head ,in The rated head; the output is divided into three ranges: light load. , in-process Heavy load ,in This is the rated output.
[0049] By using historical simulation or measured data, the average short-circuit current contribution rate under the combination of each head range and output range is calculated in advance, forming a... The lookup table is used; during real-time diagnosis, the dynamic evaluation coefficients for each fault point are obtained using bilinear interpolation based on the current head and output.

[0052] Step S2: Short-circuit current calculation
[0053] (1) Equivalent model of transient electromotive force change of hydropower unit
[0054] An equivalent model of the transient electromotive force change of the hydropower unit is established, and the following set of differential equations is used to describe the excitation system and rotor motion characteristics:
[0055]
[0056]
[0057] In the formula:
[0058] — Transient potential (per unit);
[0059] — Excitation time constant (s);
[0060] — Excitation voltage (per unit);
[0061] — Direct-axis synchronous reactance (per unit);
[0062] — Direct-axis transient reactance (per unit);
[0063] — Direct-axis current (per unit);
[0064] — Moment of inertia (kg·m²);
[0065] — Rotor angular velocity (rad / s);
[0066] — Synchronous angular velocity (rad / s);
[0067] — Mechanical torque (per unit);
[0068] — Electromagnetic torque (per unit);
[0069] — Damping coefficient.
[0070] The above system of equations is solved numerically using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method, with a time step of [value missing]. The transient potential after the fault is obtained. The attenuation curve; according to By combining the network equations, the periodic component and the decaying DC component of the fault current can be calculated, thus obtaining the fault current. The complete waveform.
[0071] (2) Introduction of dynamic impedance compensation factor
[0072] Introducing dynamic impedance compensation factor Its function is to correct the equivalent injected current of each node in the short-circuit current calculation so as to reflect the dynamic change of the equivalent internal impedance during the transient process of the hydropower unit; the dynamic impedance compensation factor is based on 1, plus a correction term that is proportional to the square of the real-time short-circuit current and decays exponentially with time, and the proportional coefficient and time constant of the correction term are determined according to the current head interval.
[0073] In this embodiment, the specific formula for calculating the dynamic impedance compensation factor is as follows:
[0074]
[0075] in:
[0076] — Compensation coefficient, range of values ;
[0077] — Compensation time constant, range of values ;
[0078] — Real-time short-circuit current (per unit);
[0079] — Reference current, the rated current of the water intake generator unit.
[0080] The compensation coefficient and time constant are determined based on the specific head interval as follows:
[0081] Low head ( ): , ;
[0082] Rated head ( ): , ;
[0083] High head ( ): , .
[0084] The above values are based on the following: at low head, the turbine has large mechanical inertia, and the speed changes drastically during transient processes, resulting in significant changes in equivalent impedance. Therefore, a larger compensation range and a longer duration are required. At high head, the unit has better stability, and the compensation range is correspondingly reduced.
[0085] (3) Nodal algorithm for solving fault current
[0086] Dynamic impedance compensation factor Multiply by the equivalent injection current of each node, and then substitute into the supernode iterative equation for solving; specifically, for the For each node, the corrected injection current is:
[0087]
[0088] in For nodes The corresponding dynamic impedance compensation factor (taken as 1 if it is not a generator node); then solve the node voltage equations:
[0089]
[0090] in Here is the nodal admittance matrix. For node voltage vectors, The corrected injection current vector is used; the voltage of each node is obtained by iterative solution (such as Gauss-Seidel method or Newton-Raphson method), and then the fault current of each branch is calculated.
[0091] (4) Fault point classification
[0092] According to electrical distance Based on the fault current characteristics, fault points are divided into three categories:
[0093] Dynamic coupling fault point: electrical distance And the fault current decay time constant These types of faults are located near the generator, and the short-circuit current contains abundant aperiodic and low-frequency oscillating components, making them significantly affected by the dynamic characteristics of the hydropower unit.
[0094] Weak power supply fault point: electrical distance And the fault current amplitude Such fault points are far from the power source, the fault current amplitude is small, and the protection sensitivity is easily insufficient.
[0095] Other fault points: those falling between the two mentioned above can be handled using conventional short-circuit calculation methods.
[0096] For dynamically coupled fault points, a dynamic characteristic compensation model for the fault point is further established, and the compensation parameters are identified online by the recursive least squares (RLS) method to more accurately reflect the impact of unit dynamics on short-circuit current.
[0097] (5) Fault current contribution rate matrix
[0098] The fault current contribution rate matrix is established using the recursive least squares method. The input to RLS is the current sampling value at each protection installation point for the first 5 cycles after the fault occurs, and the output is the short-circuit current contribution rate of each protection device at each fault point. (satisfies after normalization) The RLS recursive formula is:
[0099]
[0100] in Here is the gain matrix. The input vector.
[0101] Finally, the total short-circuit current at each fault point is considered. (Calculated using metallic short circuit at the fault point), calculate the actual fault current amplitude of each protection device:
[0102]
[0103] Step S3: Sensitivity Analysis and Characteristic Curve Generation
[0104] (1) Comprehensive weight and coupling region division
[0105] Calculate each fault point Overall weight :
[0106]
[0107] in Contribution rate to short-circuit current For dynamic evaluation coefficients, The total number of protection devices; this weight comprehensively reflects the degree of impact of the fault point on the protection devices and the time-varying nature of the operating conditions.
[0108] Delineating coupling regions based on comprehensive weights:
[0109] Strongly coupled region: ;
[0110] Weak coupling zone: ;
[0111] Transition zone: .
[0112] (2) Frequency domain analysis and extraction of characteristic frequency components
[0113] Fault current sampling sequence for each fault point Perform a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) at a sampling frequency of 4000 Hz, and take 10 cycles after the fault in the analysis window; extract the following characteristic frequency components:
[0114] Fundamental amplitude (50 Hz or 60 Hz);
[0115] Second harmonic amplitude (100 Hz or 120 Hz);
[0116] Third harmonic amplitude (150 Hz or 180 Hz).
[0117] low-frequency oscillation component amplitude Extraction method: The fault current signal is zero-mean processed, and a passband frequency of is applied. A bandpass filter (such as a fourth-order Butterworth filter) is used, and then a Hilbert transform is performed on the filtered signal to obtain the instantaneous amplitude envelope. The maximum value of the envelope is taken as the amplitude. This component reflects the current fluctuations in hydropower units caused by governor response or low-frequency oscillations in the power system.
[0118] (3) Calculation of initial sensitivity coefficient
[0119] No. The first protection device in the The initial sensitivity coefficient at each fault point is defined as:
[0120]
[0121] in This is the starting current setting value (or operating threshold) for the protection device; for distance protection, the current corresponding to the minimum operating impedance can be used.
[0122] (4) Compensation triggering conditions and model selection
[0123] Dynamic sensitivity compensation is activated when the fault point is located in a strongly coupled region and meets any of the following conditions:
[0124] Second harmonic amplitude ratio to fundamental frequency ;
[0125] Low-frequency oscillation to fundamental amplitude ratio .
[0126] The thresholds mentioned above (0.1 and 0.05) are empirical values obtained through extensive simulation and field fault data analysis. They can effectively distinguish between harmonics caused by normal excitation inrush current or load fluctuations and waveform distortions associated with faults.
[0127] If compensation is triggered, the waveform distortion rate (THD) is calculated:
[0128]
[0129] The compensation model is selected based on THD and the intensity of low-frequency oscillations:
[0130] Composite compensation model: when and At the same time, the effects of harmonics and low-frequency oscillations should be considered simultaneously;
[0131] Simplified compensation model: when At that time, only the harmonic effects are considered, and the phase compensation of low-frequency oscillations is ignored;
[0132] Fundamental wave compensation model: When and At this time, the waveform distortion is very small and no additional compensation is required.
[0133] (5) Compensation factor calculation and sensitivity correction
[0134] Dynamic compensation factor and phase compensation factor The calculation formula is:
[0135]
[0136]
[0137] in The phase shift of the fault current can be calculated using the real and imaginary parts of the fundamental component: .
[0138] For the simplified compensation model, take For the fundamental frequency compensation model, take , .
[0139] The corrected sensitivity coefficient is:
[0140]
[0141] (6) Plotting protection characteristic curves and identifying feature points
[0142] electrical distance (x-axis) and the corrected sensitivity coefficient (Vertical axis) Plot the protection characteristic curve Since the fault points are arranged in ascending order of electrical distance, the spacing between adjacent points is... (Typically, 0.01 pu is used); Calculate the first difference of the curve:
[0143]
[0144] Will The point is marked as a steep change point; The point (or its closest approximation point) is marked as the critical point; the three points with the smallest electrical distance among all abrupt change points and critical points are taken as the protection coordination interface points; these three points correspond to the protection coordination boundaries of the near zone, middle zone, and far zone, respectively, and are important references for the differentiated adjustment of the setting value.
[0145] Step S4: Defect Diagnosis and Tuning Optimization
[0146] (1) Differentiated defect diagnosis
[0147] Based on the segmentation results of the protection characteristic curve, perform the following differential diagnosis:
[0148] Insufficient dynamic compensation: This is particularly relevant for strongly coupled regions and dynamic compensation factors. The section indicating that the existing setting value cannot adapt to waveform distortion is judged to be a defect of insufficient dynamic compensation; the output suggestion is to reduce the starting current setting value to its original value. times.
[0149] Insufficient sensitivity: Regarding the sensitivity coefficient The section is deemed to have insufficient sensitivity; output recommendations: adopt adaptive tuning (such as automatically adjusting the threshold according to the load current) or add auxiliary protection (such as adding a directional element).
[0150] Selectivity defects: regarding sensitivity coefficient And the time difference between adjacent protection actions The section in question is classified as having a selective defect; recommended output: increase the starting current setting value back to its original value. Double, or increase latency .
[0151] The diagnostic thresholds (1.2, 2.5, 0.1s) were determined based on the Technical Specification for Relay Protection and Automatic Safety Devices (GB / T14285) and the actual operating experience of hydropower plants.
[0152] (2) Verification and iterative optimization of cooperation relationship
[0153] Verify whether the coordination relationship between adjacent protection systems meets the following conditions:
[0154] Action time difference ;
[0155] Corrected sensitivity coefficient (For primary protection) or (For backup protection, this embodiment uniformly takes 1.2).
[0156] If the conditions are not met, the tuning value is adjusted iteratively. Each adjustment is 5% of the current tuning value, and the adjustment direction is determined according to the defect type (the tuning value is lowered for defects with insufficient dynamic compensation and insufficient sensitivity, and the tuning value is increased for selective defects). After each iteration, steps S2 and S3 are re-executed to calculate the new sensitivity coefficient and matching relationship. When the matching condition is met or the number of iterations reaches 10, the iteration is stopped, and the final defect diagnosis report and optimized tuning value are output.
[0157] The report includes: defect type, affected area (electrical distance range), current sensitivity coefficient, recommended setting value, and suggested operating time.
