DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0023] The following will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for illustrating and explaining the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure.
[0024] The main transformer cooler is an important device used to cool the main transformer in the power system. The main transformer is the core component in the power system, responsible for voltage conversion and playing a key role in connecting the power plant and the power consumption side. During operation, the main transformer generates a large amount of heat, which needs to be cooled by a cooling system to ensure the continuous and stable operation of the main transformer. The main transformer cooler is a key part of such a cooling system. It can adopt single or combined cooling methods such as water cooling, oil cooling or air cooling to timely export the heat generated by the main transformer and ensure the reliable operation of the main transformer.
[0025] There are some problems in the control circuit of the main transformer cooler in the related art. Specifically, multiple main transformer coolers share the same branch from the three-phase power supply to the transfer switch. This design has a risk of single-point failure. Once there is a problem with this branch, all main transformer coolers will stop operating simultaneously. This centralized control method lacks independent control of each main transformer cooler. Once a certain cooler has a problem, it will affect the operation stability of the main transformer cooler and cannot achieve reliable and flexible control of the main transformer cooler. That is, the related art has problems such as high single-point failure risk and poor reliability.
[0026] The good operation of the main transformer cooler is crucial for the reliable power supply of the entire power system. Therefore, how to design a reliable control circuit for the main transformer cooler is one of the technical problems that the power industry urgently needs to solve.
[0027] Figure 1 is a structural diagram of the main transformer cooler control circuit 100 shown according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 1 shown, the main transformer cooler control circuit 100 includes: a three-phase power supply 200 and a plurality of control branches 300. The three-phase power supply 200 is connected to each of the control branches 300, and the plurality of control branches 300 are used to be connected to the plurality of main transformer coolers 400 in one-to-one correspondence.
[0028] Here, the three-phase power supply 200 refers to a power supply that provides three-phase alternating current and is used to supply power to the main transformer, a high-power device. The control branch 300 refers to a separate circuit branched from the three-phase power supply 200 and is used to connect and control a single main transformer cooler 400. Exemplarily, as Figure 2As shown in the figure, there are n (n≥3) control branches 300, including the first control branch 310, the second control branch 320, ……, the i-th control branch 3i0 (1≤i≤n), ……, the n-th control branch 3n0. Correspondingly, there are also n main transformer coolers 400, including the first main transformer cooler 410, the second main transformer cooler 420, ……, the i-th main transformer cooler 4i0, ……, the n-th main transformer cooler 400. The control branches 300 are connected to the main transformer coolers 400 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0029] The three-phase power supply 200 is connected to each control branch 3i0, which can ensure that each main transformer cooler 4i0 can obtain an independent power supply from the three-phase power supply 200. Thus, the problem of all main transformer coolers shutting down due to the failure of a single control branch 3i0 can be avoided. The specific connection method between the three-phase power supply 200 and the control branch 300 can be: the three-phase AC outputs of the three-phase power supply 200 are respectively connected to the three input ends of each control branch 3i0.
[0030] The one-to-one correspondence connection between the control branches 300 and the main transformer coolers 400 can achieve independent control of each main transformer cooler 400. Once a certain main transformer cooler 4i0 fails, it only affects that device and does not affect the normal operation of other main transformer coolers 400.
[0031] In the above technical solution, a control branch 3i0 is set separately for each main transformer cooler 4i0 and is connected to the three-phase power supply 200. When a problem occurs in a single main transformer cooler 4i0, it does not affect the normal operation of other main transformer coolers, thereby realizing independent control of the main transformer coolers 400 and improving the reliability and stability of the operation of the main transformer coolers 400.
[0032] Figure 2 is a structural diagram of each control branch 300 shown according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 3 is a structural diagram of the main transformer cooler control circuit 100 shown according to an exemplary embodiment. In one embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, each of the control branches 300 includes: a three-phase circuit breaker 3i1, a single-pole switch 3i2, and a changeover switch 3i3. The first end 3i11 of the three-phase circuit breaker is connected to the single-pole switch 3i2, and the single-pole switch 3i2 is connected to the changeover switch 3i3.
[0033] Here, the three-phase circuit breaker 3i1 is a circuit breaker used to protect the three-phase circuit (the circuit connecting to the three-phase power supply 200), which can quickly cut off the circuit in case of overload or short circuit of the circuit, protecting the circuit and the main transformer cooler 400 safely. The single-pole switch 3i2 is a switch used for a single-phase circuit (a circuit that only connects to one phase of the three-phase power supply 200). The changeover switch 3i3 is used to switch the operation mode of the main transformer cooler, including standby mode, stop mode, working mode, auxiliary mode, etc. The first end 3i11 of the three-phase circuit breaker refers to a single output end of the three-phase circuit breaker 3i1.
[0034] In the related art, the changeover switch 3i3 of all control branches 300 is directly connected to the three-phase power supply 200 and shares one branch. Therefore, when a fault occurs in a certain branch, it will affect the normal operation of other branches, reducing the reliability.
[0035] The first end 3i11 of the three-phase circuit breaker is connected to the single-pole switch 3i2, and the single-pole switch 3i2 is connected to the changeover switch 3i3, which can enable each control branch 3i0 to have an independent power supply path from the three-phase power supply 200 to the changeover switch 3i3, thereby avoiding problems that may be caused by sharing branches. Setting the single-pole switch 3i2 on the independent branch from the three-phase power supply 200 to the changeover switch 3i3 can conveniently manually control the on / off of the entire three-phase circuit. When a fault occurs, the corresponding branch can be quickly isolated from the three-phase power supply 200 through the single-pole switch 3i2. Even if the changeover switch 3i3 itself fails, the single-pole switch 3i2 can independently cut off the power supply.
[0036] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, each of the control branches 300 includes: a contactor. The three-phase power supply 200 is connected to the second end 3i12 of the three-phase circuit breaker. The third end 3i13 of the three-phase circuit breaker is connected to the main contact 3i41 of the contactor. The main contact 3i41 of the contactor is used to connect to the main transformer cooler 400 corresponding to the control branch 300 where it is located. The changeover switch 3i3 is connected to the coil 3i42 of the contactor.
[0037] Here, a contactor is an electromagnetic switch device used to control the on / off of a circuit, mainly composed of a coil and a main contact. The main contact 3i41 of the contactor is the electrical contact point for actually cutting off or connecting the circuit, undertaking the on / off function of the main circuit of the circuit. The coil 3i42 of the contactor is an electromagnetic coil. When current passes through the coil, a magnetic field will be generated, attracting the movable iron core of the contactor, thereby driving the main contact 3i41 of the contactor to close and completing the connection of the circuit. The second end 3i12 of the three-phase circuit breaker is its input end, connecting to the three-phase power supply 200. The third end 3i13 of the three-phase circuit breaker is its output end, used to supply power to the main transformer cooler 400.
[0038] Connect the output terminal (the third terminal) of the three - phase circuit breaker 3i1 to the main contact 3i41 of the contactor. The opening and closing function of the contactor can be used to control the operation and shutdown of the main transformer cooler 4i0. Connect the change - over switch 3i3 to the coil 3i42 of the contactor. By operating the change - over switch 3i3, the energization and de - energization of the coil 3i42 of the contactor can be controlled, thereby controlling the attraction and separation of the main contact 3i41 of the contactor, and thus realizing the control of the operation and shutdown of the main transformer cooler 4i0.
[0039] In one embodiment, the third terminal 3i13 of the three - phase circuit breaker includes three sub - terminals, which correspond one - to - one with the three phase lines of the three - phase power supply 200, and the first terminal is any one of the sub - terminals of the third terminal.
[0040] Here, the third terminal 3i13 of the three - phase circuit breaker includes three sub - terminals, corresponding to the three phase lines of the three - phase power supply 200 respectively. The first terminal, as the input terminal of the contactor coil, only needs to be connected to one of the phases of the three - phase power supply 200 to realize the control of the contactor. Therefore, any one of the sub - terminals of the third terminal is used as the first terminal. Exemplarily, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the first terminal is the terminal corresponding to phase A in the three - phase power supply 200 among the third terminals.
[0041] Figure 4 is a structural diagram of the alarm circuit 500 shown according to an exemplary embodiment. In one embodiment, as Figure 3 and 4 shown, the main transformer cooler control circuit 100 further includes an alarm circuit 500, and the alarm circuit 500 is connected to the auxiliary normally - closed contact 3i21 of each single - pole switch; the alarm circuit 500 includes a display screen for displaying the fault alarm information of the main transformer cooler 4i0.
[0042] Here, the alarm circuit 500 is an independent circuit for detecting whether the main transformer cooler 400 fails and giving an alarm prompt. In addition to the main breaking function, the single - pole switch 3i2 has a pair of auxiliary normally - closed contacts that remain open when the single - pole switch 3i2 is normally closed and close when the single - pole switch 3i2 trips. This auxiliary normally - closed contact can be used to detect the tripping state of the single - pole switch 3i2. The display screen is a device in the alarm circuit 500 for displaying the fault alarm information of the main transformer cooler 4i0.
[0043] When the single - pole switch 3i2 trips due to a fault, its auxiliary normally - closed contact closes, thereby conducting the alarm circuit 500, enabling the display screen to display the fault alarm information, so that the fault of the main transformer cooler 4i0 can be detected and processed in time. Through the linkage between the alarm circuit 500 and the auxiliary contact of the single - pole switch 3i2, the fault of the main transformer cooler 4i0 can be detected and displayed in time.
[0044] In one embodiment, the model of the single-pole switch 3i2 is ABB S201 C3.
[0045] Here, the ABB S201 C3 model single-pole switch is a single-pole switch with an auxiliary normally-closed contact.
[0046] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 and 4 shown, the auxiliary normally-closed contacts 3i21 of each single-pole switch are connected in parallel to the alarm circuit 500.
[0047] Here, the auxiliary normally-closed contacts 3i21 of all single-pole switches are connected together in parallel and connected to the alarm circuit 500. When any single-pole switch 3i2 trips due to a fault, its auxiliary normally-closed contact will close, conducting the alarm circuit 500 and triggering an alarm. Thus, any main transformer cooler 4i0 and its control branch 3i0 can be monitored in a timely manner for faults.
[0048] Corresponding to the number of control branches 300, there are n single-pole switches 3i2, and each single-pole switch 3i2 has a corresponding auxiliary normally-closed contact. Exemplarily, as Figure 4 shown, the auxiliary normally-closed contact 3121 of the first single-pole switch, the auxiliary normally-closed contact 3221 of the second single-pole switch,..., the auxiliary normally-closed contact 3i21 of the i-th single-pole switch,..., the auxiliary normally-closed contact 3n21 of the n-th single-pole switch are all connected in parallel to the alarm circuit 500 to jointly control the conduction and closing of the alarm circuit 500. When the auxiliary normally-closed contact 3i21 of any single-pole switch closes, the alarm circuit 500 closes.
[0049] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the alarm circuit 500 is connected to the auxiliary normally-closed contact 3i14 of each three-phase circuit breaker.
[0050] Here, like the single-pole switch 3i2, the three-phase circuit breaker 3i1 also has an auxiliary normally-closed contact. When the three-phase circuit breaker 3i1 is normally closed, its auxiliary normally-closed contact is open, and when it trips, its auxiliary normally-closed contact closes. Connecting the auxiliary normally-closed contact 3i14 of the three-phase circuit breaker to the alarm circuit 500 can achieve fault monitoring of the main transformer cooler 4i0 and its control branch 3i0.
[0051] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the auxiliary normally-closed contacts 3i14 of each three-phase circuit breaker are connected in parallel to the alarm circuit 500.
[0052] Here, the auxiliary normally closed contacts 3i14 of all three-phase circuit breakers are paralleled together and connected to the alarm circuit 500. When any one of the three-phase circuit breakers 3i1 trips due to a fault, its auxiliary normally closed contact will close, conducting the alarm circuit 500 and triggering an alarm. Thus, faults in any main transformer cooler 4i0 and its control branch 30i0 can be monitored in a timely manner.
[0053] Corresponding to the number of control branches 300, there are n three-phase circuit breakers 3i1, and each three-phase circuit breaker 3i1 has a corresponding auxiliary normally closed contact. By way of example, as Figure 4 shown, the auxiliary normally closed contacts 3114 of the first three-phase circuit breaker, 3214 of the second three-phase circuit breaker,..., 3i14 of the i-th three-phase circuit breaker,..., 3n14 of the n-th three-phase circuit breaker are all paralleled and connected to the alarm circuit 500, jointly controlling the conduction and closing of the alarm circuit 500. When the auxiliary normally closed contact 3i14 of any one of the three-phase circuit breakers closes, the alarm circuit 500 closes.
