Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of power capacitor equipment in power transmission projects, in particular to a bird-damage-proof power capacitor group used in power transmission projects. Background Art
[0002] At present, there are many ultra-high / ultra-high voltage AC and DC transmission projects under construction and in operation in my country. In order to provide reactive power compensation, filter out specific harmonics, enhance system stability, reduce grid losses and improve voltage quality, a large number of power capacitor devices need to be installed in converter stations and substations. Due to the large number of layers and electrical connection points of power capacitor devices, and the different potentials of different electrical connection points, when there are foreign objects (usually birds), short-circuit discharge will occur, causing the protection device to trip and causing the power capacitor device to fail and exit operation. Operation experience shows that the bird damage problem has seriously affected the safe operation of power capacitor devices and has always been a pain point in the operation of converter stations and substations. The problem of bird damage prevention for power capacitor devices needs to be solved urgently.
[0003] At present, the bird-proof measures taken on power capacitor devices are as follows: 1. Tinned copper stranded wire with insulating jacket is used for the connecting wire inside the power capacitor device; 2. Bird-proof caps are installed on the capacitor terminals; 3. The clear distance between capacitor layers is increased; 4. Anti-bird-proof insulating coating (fluorosilicone rubber) is sprayed between capacitor layers (capacitor unit and frame surface). Among them, the first and second measures have solved the bird-proof problem between the capacitor terminals and between the terminals and the shell, but cannot solve the problem of bird-proof between capacitor layers. For the third measure, the existing technical solution is that the interlayer support insulator and the two sides of the capacitor will occupy the interlayer clear distance, so it is necessary to increase the height of the interlayer support insulator, but this will reduce the critical load of the interlayer support insulator, affect the overall seismic performance of the capacitor device, and increase the cost of the capacitor device. In addition, due to the height restrictions of the converter station and substation, the clear distance between the capacitor layers is relatively limited after the increase, and it cannot fundamentally eliminate the problem of preventing various bird damage between the capacitor layers. Regarding the fourth measure, although some capacitor manufacturers have conducted thermal stability tests on capacitor units sprayed with bird-proof insulating coating (fluorosilicone rubber), and the test results show that they are qualified, they are only the test results of a few capacitor units sampled in the laboratory in a short period of time, which are not universal and have no technical support from relevant national standards. For ultra-high / ultra-high voltage AC and DC transmission projects, there are tens of thousands of capacitor units, dozens of models, and complex operating conditions. If the bird-proof insulating coating (fluorosilicone rubber) is directly sprayed on the capacitor units, it will have a great impact on the heat dissipation, insulation aging, and service life of the capacitor units, and the operating risk is relatively large. In addition, the replacement and maintenance of capacitor units and the re-spraying of bird-proof insulating coating on capacitor towers in the later stage are complicated and difficult to implement, with a huge workload and are very environmentally unfriendly. The capacitor layers cannot achieve long-term and effective bird-proof effects. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a bird-proof power capacitor bank for power transmission projects which has the advantages of simple structure, convenient installation and maintenance and good bird-proof effect.
[0005] The technical solution for achieving the above-mentioned purpose includes the following contents.
[0006] A bird-damage-proof power capacitor group for power transmission projects comprises a plurality of capacitor racks stacked up and down, the capacitor racks comprising a capacitor unit group and interlayer support insulators, the capacitor unit group comprising a steel frame, a plurality of capacitor units and a protective plate, the steel frame being a cubic frame structure, the capacitor units lying side by side and being fastened in the steel frame, the capacitor unit terminals facing outward, the protective plate being a thin plate with an insulating coating sprayed on the plate surface, the protective plate covering and being fixed on the top surface and / or the bottom surface of the steel frame, and the interlayer support insulators being connected to the steel frame.
[0007] Furthermore, the steel frame is assembled by welding angle steels.
[0008] Furthermore, the top surface of the protective plate fixed on the top surface of the steel frame is sprayed with insulating paint, the bottom surface of the protective plate fixed on the bottom surface of the steel frame is sprayed with insulating paint, and the surface in contact with the steel frame is not sprayed with insulating paint, which can ensure that the potential of the protective plate and the steel frame is equal, avoiding the occurrence of floating potential.
[0009] Furthermore, the capacitor unit is fastened to the steel frame by bolts.
[0010] Furthermore, the insulating coating is fluorosilicone rubber.
[0011] Furthermore, the plate surface of the protective plate is provided with strip-shaped triangular protrusions at intervals, so that triangular gaps are formed between the plate surface and the steel frame, which facilitates the heat dissipation of the capacitor unit during energized operation; and enhances the mechanical strength of the protective plate to prevent deformation, wind shaking and resonance noise.
[0012] Furthermore, the protective plate fixed on the bottom or top surface of the steel frame is composed of a plurality of shielding capacitor units and a plate surface of the steel frame material. Holes are left at positions that do not need to be shielded, which is conducive to heat dissipation.
[0013] Furthermore, the protective plate is a galvanized steel plate or a stainless steel plate with a thickness of 1.5 mm to 2 mm. The plate with appropriate thickness is light in weight, light in load, and can be repeatedly disassembled and assembled.
[0014] Furthermore, the protective plate is installed and fixed on the steel frame by using blind rivets.
[0015] Furthermore, each capacitor stand is provided with two capacitor unit groups which are horizontally arranged in parallel and connected.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] The bird-proof insulating coating (fluorosilicone rubber) is sprayed on the protective plate, which is installed on the top and / or bottom of the steel frame. It does not contact the capacitor unit and does not affect the installation of the capacitor unit and the heat dissipation during energized operation.
[0018] If the protective plate is made of other insulating materials such as epoxy resin plates, there are insurmountable disadvantages such as short service life, easy aging and cracking, and cannot be repeatedly disassembled and assembled. This solution uses 1.5mm~2mm thick galvanized steel plate or stainless steel plate, which is not only light in weight, but also will not add excessive load to the capacitor bank after installation. It is easy to spray insulating paint, has good coverage, and has a long service life and can be repeatedly disassembled and assembled.
[0019] The protective plate is assembled and easy to install and disassemble. It can be centrally processed and produced in the factory. There is no need to spray paint on site in the converter station and substation. It is environmentally friendly, has high production and processing efficiency and low cost.
[0020] 4. The protective plate surface is provided with a plurality of strip-shaped triangular protrusions, which not only provide a heat dissipation channel for the capacitor unit, but also enhance the mechanical strength of the protective plate.
[0021] 5. The insulation range of the protective plate can be set according to the capacitor bank. The insulation bird-proof range is large and safe and reliable. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
