Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of generator technology, and in particular to a demagnetizing circuit and demagnetizing device for a steam turbine generator rotor. Background Technology
[0002] Steam turbine generator rotors are prone to magnetization due to factors such as inter-turn short circuits in the windings, two-point grounding faults, or magnetic circuit imbalance caused by asymmetry in the air gap between the stator and rotor. Rotor magnetization results in axial or radial remanence, meaning the rotor retains magnetic induction even when the magnetic field strength is zero. Axial remanence generates a unipolar potential during rotor operation, ultimately forming a shaft voltage. If the rotor remanence is too high and the rotor bearing insulation is poor, a large shaft current will be generated in the circuit between the rotor shaft, bearings, and ground. If the rotor remanence is too low, it leads to rotor electro-corrosion, potentially burning out the bearings, and also causes abnormally increased rotor vibration, severely affecting the safe operation of the generator. To prevent rotor malfunctions caused by excessive remanence, it is necessary to demagnetize the areas of the rotor where remanence exists.
[0003] In related technologies, commonly used methods for eliminating residual magnetism in steam turbine generator rotors include heating demagnetization, direct current demagnetization, and alternating current demagnetization. However, since different demagnetization methods are applicable to different objects and scenarios, and the axial cross-section of steam turbine generator rotors also varies, if a simple DC or AC welding machine is used to demagnetize the generator rotor, the demagnetization efficiency is low and the demagnetization effect is poor due to the limited output DC or AC current.

[0045] Steam turbine generator rotors are prone to magnetization due to factors such as inter-turn short circuits in the windings, two-point grounding faults, or magnetic circuit imbalance caused by asymmetry in the air gap between the stator and rotor. Rotor magnetization results in axial or radial remanence, meaning the rotor retains magnetic induction even when the magnetic field strength is zero. Axial remanence generates a unipolar potential during rotor operation, ultimately forming a shaft voltage. If the rotor remanence is too high and the rotor bearing insulation is poor, a large shaft current will be generated in the circuit between the rotor shaft, bearings, and ground. If the rotor remanence is too low, it leads to rotor electro-corrosion, potentially burning out the bearings, and also causes abnormally increased rotor vibration, severely affecting the safe operation of the generator. To prevent rotor malfunctions caused by excessive remanence, it is necessary to demagnetize the areas of the rotor where remanence exists.
[0046] In related technologies, commonly used methods for eliminating residual magnetism in turbine generator rotors include heating demagnetization, direct current demagnetization, and alternating current demagnetization. Heating demagnetization utilizes a heat source to raise the rotor's temperature, accelerating the movement of metal atoms and causing the ordered magnetic domains to realign randomly, thus achieving demagnetization. However, heating demagnetization is difficult to implement in the field, and the rotor heating process may damage the rotor coils.
[0047] DC demagnetization works by continuously changing the magnitude and direction of a direct current to reduce the hysteresis loop, thus achieving demagnetization. Because direct current has no reactance, the voltage required for the applied current in DC demagnetization is very low, and the power supply capacity is also small. However, DC demagnetization requires repeatedly changing the direction of the current, resulting in low demagnetization efficiency. Therefore, DC demagnetization is mainly used for rotor components with large cross-sectional areas, such as rotor journals, slip rings, and fan discs.
[0048] Alternating current (AC) demagnetization utilizes the alternating magnetic field generated by alternating current to continuously change the alignment of magnetic domains within a magnetic object, thereby achieving demagnetization. AC demagnetization is simple to operate and has higher demagnetization efficiency; however, it suffers from the skin effect, making it less effective for large components. Furthermore, AC demagnetization requires a high-capacity power supply. Therefore, AC demagnetization is primarily used for rotor components with small cross-sectional areas, such as rotor retaining rings and center rings.
[0049] In summary, since different demagnetization methods are applicable to different objects and scenarios, and the axial cross-section of the turbine generator rotor is also of different sizes, if a simple DC or AC welding machine is used to demagnetize the generator rotor, the demagnetization efficiency is low and the demagnetization effect is poor due to the limited output DC or AC current.
[0050] To address the issues of low demagnetization efficiency and poor demagnetization effect in the aforementioned related technologies, firstly, referring to... Figure 1 One embodiment of this application provides a demagnetizing circuit for a steam turbine generator rotor, including a demagnetizing winding 100, a DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200, and an AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300. The demagnetizing winding 100 is used to provide a demagnetizing DC magnetic field or AC magnetic field, and the demagnetizing winding 100 is wound around the surface of the steam turbine generator rotor. The output terminal of the DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200 is connected to the demagnetizing winding 100, and the DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200 is used to provide DC power to demagnetize a first part of the steam turbine generator rotor. The output terminal of the AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300 is connected to the demagnetizing winding 100, and the AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300 is used to provide AC power to demagnetize a second part of the steam turbine generator rotor, wherein the cross-sectional area of the second part is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the first part.
[0051] The first part includes rotor components with larger cross-sectional areas, such as the rotor journal, slip rings, and fan disc. The second part includes rotor components with smaller cross-sectional areas, such as the bearing shells, rotor retaining rings, and center ring.
[0052] Specifically, DC demagnetization involves applying a DC current in the opposite direction to the rotor's magnetic field to gradually reduce the rotor's magnetic field strength, ultimately achieving demagnetization. Due to the characteristics of DC current, it can be evenly distributed over a large cross-sectional area, thus effectively eliminating the magnetic field across the entire large cross-sectional area. Therefore, for rotor sections with large cross-sectional areas, the DC demagnetization sub-circuit 200 is used for demagnetization.
[0053] Alternating current (AC) demagnetization works by applying an alternating current, causing the magnetic field to fluctuate back and forth in the positive and negative directions. This gradually weakens the magnetic field to zero by narrowing the hysteresis loop. The frequency and amplitude of the AC current can be adjusted as needed, making it suitable for handling small-area magnetic field problems. Therefore, AC demagnetization sub-circuit 300 is used for demagnetization.
[0054] The turbine generator rotor demagnetizing circuit in this embodiment, through the combined operation of the demagnetizing winding 100, the DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200, and the AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300, possesses both DC and AC demagnetizing functions. Users can select an appropriate demagnetizing method based on the specific magnetized part of the rotor (e.g., any one or more parts of the first or second part), the residual magnetism, and the available power capacity. This solves the problem of using the same equipment to demagnetize different magnetized parts of the rotor, making turbine generator rotor demagnetizing simple and efficient. Furthermore, the turbine generator rotor demagnetizing circuit in this embodiment can output stable and adjustable high-current DC and AC currents. By adjusting the output current magnitude and time, the residual magnetism can be eliminated. The AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300 and the DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200 have an interlocking function, ensuring mutual isolation and no interference. The DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200 has a current reversing function, allowing it to output reverse voltage without changing the wiring, achieving reverse DC demagnetization, making operation simple and convenient.
[0055] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200 includes a first power switch 210, a first rectifier module 220, an inverter module 230, a first transformer 240, a second rectifier module 250, and a DC output switch 260 connected in sequence. The first power switch 210 is used to turn on and off the input of the grid power supply; the first rectifier module 220 is used to convert the AC power from the grid power supply into high-voltage pulsating DC power; the inverter module 230 is used to convert the high-voltage pulsating DC power into a high-voltage high-frequency AC voltage square wave with adjustable pulse width; the first transformer 240 is used to convert the high-voltage high-frequency AC voltage square wave into a low-voltage high-frequency AC voltage square wave; the second rectifier module 250 is used to convert the low-voltage high-frequency AC voltage square wave into a low-voltage DC high current; and the DC output switch 260 is used to turn on and off the output of the low-voltage DC high current.
[0056] The first power supply is a three-stage switch used to turn the grid power input on and off. The three input terminals of the first power switch 210 are connected to phases A, B, and C of the grid power supply, respectively, and its three output terminals are connected to the input terminals of the first rectifier module 220. The first transformer 240 is a high-frequency step-down transformer with a center tap at its output terminal. The center tap divides the output winding into two symmetrical windings, upper and lower. The upper and lower windings output AC voltages of equal magnitude but opposite polarity. The input terminal of the first transformer 240 is connected to the output terminal of the inverter module 230, and the output terminal of the first transformer 240 is connected to the input terminal of the second rectifier module 250.
[0057] In this embodiment, the first power switch 210, the first rectifier module 220, the inverter module 230, the first transformer 240, the second rectifier module 250 and the DC output switch 260 work together to achieve the output of DC current, so as to effectively demagnetize rotor parts with large cross-sectional areas such as rotor journals, slip rings, and fan discs.
[0058] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the first rectifier module 220 includes an even number of first rectifier diodes D1, each of which is divided into an upper part and a lower part. The anode of the upper first rectifier diode D1 and the cathode of the lower first rectifier diode D1 are connected to form one of the input terminals of the first rectifier module 220. The cathodes of the upper first rectifier diodes D1 are connected together to serve as the positive voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220, and the anodes of the lower first rectifier diodes D1 are connected together to serve as the negative voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220. When the first rectifier module 220 is working, the upper and lower first rectifier diodes D1 corresponding to one of the input terminals are turned on.
[0059] In this embodiment, six first rectifier diodes D1 are used to form a bridge rectifier structure. Three first rectifier diodes D1 are located at the top, and the remaining three are located at the bottom. The anodes of the three upper first rectifier diodes D1 are connected to the cathodes of the three lower first rectifier diodes D1, forming the three input terminals of the first rectifier module 220. The cathodes of the three upper first rectifier diodes D1 are connected together as the positive voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220, and the anodes of the three lower first rectifier diodes D1 are connected together as the negative voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220. When the first rectifier module 220 is working, two specific first rectifier diodes D1 are conducting at any given time, ensuring that the current always flows in the same direction, thereby converting alternating current into direct current.
[0060] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the first rectifier module 220 further includes a first filter capacitor C1, one end of which is connected to the positive voltage output terminal, and the other end of which is connected to the negative voltage output terminal.
[0061] Specifically, the first filter capacitor C1 is used to filter out the AC components caused by the rectification process, reduce the ripple of the output voltage, and make the output DC voltage more stable.
[0062] Reference Figure 3In some embodiments, the inverter module 230 includes a first bridge arm B1, a second bridge arm B2, a third bridge arm B3, and a fourth bridge arm B4. Each bridge arm includes an N-type AC enhancement-mode MOSFET Q, a parallel capacitor C2, and a diode D2. The drain of the MOSFET Q is connected to the cathode of the diode D2, and the source of the MOSFET Q is connected to the anode of the diode D2. The diode D2 is used to prevent reverse breakdown of the MOSFET Q. The parallel capacitor C2 is used to enable fast switching of the MOSFET Q and reduce power consumption. The inverter module 230 controls the first bridge arm B1 and the fourth bridge arm B4, or the second bridge arm B2 and the third bridge arm B3, to alternately turn on and off by inputting two sets of drive signals from the gate of the MOSFET Q, thereby controlling the voltage and frequency of the output AC power. The output terminal of the inverter module 230 is connected to the input terminal of the first transformer 240.
[0063] The first rectifier module 210 converts AC power into DC power and outputs positive and negative voltages. The first bridge arm B1, the second bridge arm B2, the third bridge arm B3, and the fourth bridge arm B4 can form an H-bridge inverter.
[0064] Specifically, the first input terminal of the inverter module 230 is connected to the positive voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220, and the second input terminal is connected to the negative voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220, forming a DC voltage source. Two sets of drive signals are input from the gate of the MOSFET Q to control the first bridge arm B1 and the fourth bridge arm B4, or the second bridge arm B2 and the third bridge arm B3, to alternately turn on and off. When the first bridge arm B1 and the fourth bridge arm B4 are on, current flows from the positive terminal through the first bridge arm B1 to the load, and then returns to the negative terminal through the fourth bridge arm B4, outputting a positive voltage. When the second bridge arm B2 and the third bridge arm B3 are on, current flows from the positive terminal through the second bridge arm B2 to the load, and then returns to the negative terminal through the third bridge arm B3, outputting a negative voltage.
[0065] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the drain of the first bridge arm B1 is connected to the drain of the third bridge arm B3, serving as the first input terminal of the inverter module 230; the source of the second bridge arm B2 is connected to the source of the fourth bridge arm B4, serving as the second input terminal of the inverter module 230; the source of the first bridge arm B1 is connected to the drain of the second bridge arm B2, serving as one output terminal of the inverter module 230; the source of the third bridge arm B3 is connected to the drain of the fourth bridge arm B4, serving as the other output terminal of the inverter module 230; the first input terminal of the inverter module 230 is connected to the positive voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220, and the second input terminal of the inverter module 230 is connected to the negative voltage output terminal of the first rectifier module 220.
[0066] Specifically, the H-bridge inverter converts DC voltage to AC voltage by controlling the switching devices in its four arms. When the first arm B1 and the fourth arm B4 are on, current flows from the first arm B1 to the fourth arm B4, resulting in a positive output voltage. When the second arm B2 and the third arm B3 are on, current flows from the second arm B2 to the third arm B3, resulting in a negative output voltage. By alternately controlling the switching states of the four arms, an AC voltage waveform can be generated. The output AC voltage of the inverter module 230 is applied to the primary winding of the first transformer 240. The first transformer 240 transforms the voltage and current to ultimately output the desired AC voltage. By adjusting the pulse width of the drive signal, the on-time of the MOSFET Q can be controlled, thereby adjusting the frequency and amplitude of the output AC voltage.
[0067] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the inverter module 230 further includes a resonant inductor L1 and a DC blocking capacitor C3. The resonant inductor L1 is connected in series with one of the output terminals of the inverter module 230 to enhance the resonant energy of the lagging bridge arm; the DC blocking capacitor C3 is connected in series with the other output terminal of the inverter module 230 to prevent the first transformer 240 from being DC biased.
[0068] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the second rectifier module 250 includes two second rectifier diodes D3, an absorption capacitor C4, a current-limiting resistor R, a freewheeling diode D4, a filter inductor L2, a second filter capacitor C5, a Hall current sensor CS, and a DC ammeter A1. The anodes of the two second rectifier diodes D3 serve as the input terminals of the second rectifier module 250, respectively connected to the two output terminals of the first transformer 240. The cathodes of the two second rectifier diodes D3 are connected together and then connected to one end of the filter inductor L2. The absorption capacitor C4 and the current-limiting resistor R are connected in series and then in parallel with the output terminal of the first transformer 240. The absorption capacitor C4 and the current-limiting resistor R are used to absorb the impulse voltage and high-frequency oscillation voltage generated when the second rectifier diodes D3 reverse recover. The cathodes of the freewheeling diodes D4... The cathode of the second rectifier diode D3 is connected to the cathode of the freewheeling diode D4, and the anode of the freewheeling diode D4 is connected to the center tap of the first transformer 240. The freewheeling diode D4 provides a freewheeling circuit for the DC current to reduce the freewheeling current at the input terminal of the first transformer 240. One end of the filter inductor L2 is connected to the cathode of the second rectifier diode D3, and the other end of the filter inductor L2 is connected to one end of the second filter capacitor C5, which serves as the output terminal of the second rectifier module 250 and is connected to the input terminal of the DC output switch 260. The other end of the second filter capacitor C5 is connected to the center tap of the first transformer 240, which serves as the other output terminal of the second rectifier module 250 and is connected to the other input terminal of the DC output switch 260. The filter inductor L2 and the second filter capacitor C5 are used to reduce the ripple of the DC voltage.
[0069] Specifically, the first transformer 240 outputs AC voltage, which is converted to DC voltage through full-wave rectification by two second rectifier diodes D3. An absorption capacitor C4 and a current-limiting resistor R are connected in series and parallel to the output terminal of the first transformer 240 to absorb the surge voltage and high-frequency oscillation voltage generated by the second rectifier diodes D3 during reverse recovery, protecting the circuit from overvoltage and high-frequency interference. A freewheeling diode D4 provides a freewheeling loop for DC current. When the second rectifier diodes D3 are not conducting, the freewheeling diode D4 conducts, allowing current to flow through the center tap of the first transformer 240, thereby reducing the freewheeling current at the input terminal of the first transformer 240 and lowering duty cycle and conduction losses. A filter inductor L2 and a second filter capacitor C5 form an LC filter circuit to reduce the ripple of the rectified pulsating DC voltage and improve the smoothness of the output voltage. A Hall current sensor CS and a DC ammeter A1 monitor the current value output by the DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200 to ensure the safe and stable operation of the system.

The input terminal of the voltage regulator 320 is connected to the phase and neutral lines of the power grid. The second power switch 310 is connected in series between the phase line of the power grid and the input terminal of the voltage regulator 320. The output terminal of the voltage regulator 320 is connected to the input terminal of the second transformer 330. The output terminal of the second transformer 330 is connected to the input terminal of the AC output switch 350. The output terminal of the AC output switch 350 is connected to the demagnetizing winding 100.
[0071] The second transformer 330 is a step-down transformer used to output a large low-voltage AC current. One output terminal of the second transformer 330 is equipped with a current measuring device 340, which consists of a through-core current transformer (CT) and an AC ammeter A2, used to monitor the current value output by the AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300. The AC output switch 350 is a double-pole switch that can simultaneously turn on or off the AC current output. The AC output switch 350 and the DC output switch 260 have an interlocking function, which is accomplished by two relays. When the AC output switch 350 is on, the DC output switch 260 is off, and the DC demagnetizing sub-circuit 200 and the AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300 are isolated from each other and do not interfere with each other.
[0072] Specifically, the AC demagnetizing sub-circuit 300, through the joint operation of the second power switch 310, voltage regulator 320, second transformer 330, current measuring device 340 and AC output switch 350, realizes the output of AC power to demagnetize rotor parts with small cross-sectional areas such as bearings, rotor retaining rings, and center rings.
[0073] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the DC output switch 260 is a double-pole double-throw switch used to turn on and off the DC output. The double-pole double-throw switch has three states: forward conduction, intermediate off, and reverse conduction. By switching the switch to the opposite conduction position, the output direction of the DC power can be changed, achieving reverse DC demagnetization. The DC output switch 260 and the AC output switch 350 have an interlocking function, which is accomplished by two relays. When the DC output switch 260 is on, the AC output switch 350 is off, and the DC demagnetization sub-circuit 200 and the AC demagnetization sub-circuit 300 are isolated from each other and do not interfere with each other. The input terminal of the DC output switch 260 is connected to the output terminal of the second rectifier module 250, and the output terminal of the DC output switch 260 is connected to the demagnetization winding 100.

This solves the problem of using the same equipment to demagnetize different magnetized parts of the rotor, making turbine generator rotor demagnetizing work simple and efficient. Furthermore, this demagnetizing circuit can output stable and adjustable high-current DC and AC currents. By adjusting the output current magnitude and time, the residual magnetism can be eliminated. AC and DC demagnetizing have an interlocking function, ensuring that the two circuits are isolated and do not interfere with each other. The DC demagnetizing subcircuit 200 has a current reversing function, allowing it to output reverse voltage without changing the wiring, achieving reverse DC demagnetizing, making operation simple and convenient.
