Description

Technical Field

[0001] This article belongs to the technical field of rectifier transformer body, specifically relating to the body arrangement structure of a single-unit 48-pulse hydrogen production rectifier transformer. Background Technology

[0002] The hydrogen-electric coupling system includes the power grid as the electricity source, wind and photovoltaic power generation equipment, user loads, hydrogen energy storage equipment, and rectifier power supplies. The real-time conversion of renewable energy into electricity via wind and solar power generation equipment is the main source of electricity in hydrogen production through wind-solar hybrid power generation. This green electricity is supplied to the hydrogen electrolyzer via a hydrogen production rectifier transformer and rectifier, where it is converted into various green energy sources such as hydrogen, ammonia, and alcohols.

[0003] For large-scale 1000-2000 Nm³ / h water electrolysis hydrogen production rectifier units, multi-pulse thyristor rectifier systems are typically used. The rectifier transformer types mainly include a 6-pulse three-phase double-reverse star structure with a balancing reactor, a valve-side star-delta phase-shifting 12-pulse structure, and a grid-side phase-shifting + valve-side star-delta phase-shifting 24-pulse structure. A single 24-pulse system exhibits current harmonics of 5-6% and voltage harmonics of 0.9%, with a power factor ≥0.95. To improve the system power factor and reduce harmonic content, multi-pulse thyristor rectifier systems require additional filtering devices to achieve relatively ideal current and voltage harmonics. This conventional technology involves high investment and a large footprint, hindering the industrialization and promotion of green hydrogen. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this paper proposes a single-unit 48-pulse hydrogen production rectifier transformer with a transformer body arrangement structure. The transformer comprises two bodies, a left body and a right body. The high-voltage winding (D-connection), low-voltage winding (d-connection), and low-voltage winding (y-connection) of both the left and right bodies are combined to form a 24-pulse configuration. The phase shift angle of the high-voltage winding (D-connection) at the upper part of the left body is +1.875°, and the phase shift angle of the high-voltage winding (D-connection) at the lower part of the left body is -13.125°. The phase difference between the upper and lower portions of the high-voltage winding in the left body is 15°. The phase shift angle of the high-voltage winding (D-connection) at the upper part of the right body is +9.375°, and the phase shift angle of the high-voltage winding (D-connection) at the lower part of the right body is -5.625°. The phase difference between the upper and lower portions of the high-voltage winding in the right body is... The phase angle difference between the 24-pulse rectifier transformers in the left and right bodies is equivalent to 48 pulses when combined with a 7.5° phase angle. Each 24-pulse rectifier transformer has a shared three-limb three-phase iron core. A conjugate iron core with a 15° phase difference between the high-voltage windings is provided between the upper and lower parts of the three-limb three-phase iron core. The phase difference excitation between the upper high-voltage winding and the lower high-voltage winding of the three-limb three-phase iron core is provided by the conjugate iron core. The valve side of a single 48-pulse rectifier transformer can drive four 12-pulse rectifiers with a 15° phase difference, which can effectively realize the function of one-to-four, and also effectively reduce the size and weight of the system, and significantly reduce the overall cost, which is conducive to the rapid industrialization of green hydrogen.

[0005] The high-voltage winding D-connection phase shift angle of the left transformer body is +1.875° and -13.125°, which, combined with the low-voltage winding d-connection and low-voltage winding y-connection, forms 24 pulses. The high-voltage winding phase shift of the upper part of the left transformer body is +1.875°, which, combined with the low-voltage winding d-connection and low-voltage winding y-connection, forms 12 pulses. The high-voltage winding phase shift of the lower part of the left transformer body is -13.125°, which, combined with the low-voltage winding d-connection and low-voltage winding y-connection, forms 12 pulses. The phase difference between the upper and lower parts of the high-voltage winding of the left transformer body is 15°.

[0006] The phase shift angles of the high-voltage winding D-connection on the right transformer body are +9.375° and -5.625°, which, combined with the low-voltage winding d-connection and low-voltage winding y-connection, form 24 pulses. The phase shift angle of the high-voltage winding at the upper part of the right transformer body is +9.375°, which, combined with the low-voltage winding d-connection and low-voltage winding y-connection, forms 12 pulses. The phase shift angle of the high-voltage winding at the lower part of the right transformer body is -5.625°, which, combined with the low-voltage winding d-connection and low-voltage winding y-connection, forms 12 pulses. The phase difference between the upper and lower parts of the high-voltage winding on the right transformer body is 15°.

[0007] The conjugate core includes an upper yoke, side columns, middle columns, and a lower yoke. The upper and lower ends of the side columns and middle columns are respectively equipped with upper and lower yokes. The middle yoke is provided in the middle of the side columns and middle columns as a transverse partition. The parallel operation of the upper and lower high-voltage windings is achieved through the conjugate core to realize additional magnetic circuit isolation and independent operation. Each 24-pulse rectifier transformer shares a three-column core. Considering that when two transformers are combined, there is a 15° phase difference in the magnetic flux passing through the upper and lower columns on the grid side, a conjugate core is designed in the three-column core. The conjugate core can provide an additional magnetic circuit for the magnetic flux of the upper and lower columns when they are in different phases, thus realizing the magnetic isolation and independent operation of the upper and lower windings, and also effectively reducing the size and weight of the system. Beneficial effects

[0008] The single-unit 48-pulse thyristor rectifier transformer not only allows for wide-range and convenient adjustment of the valve-side voltage via on-load tap changer, but also achieves extremely low current and voltage harmonics, and improves the system's power factor and efficiency. It can meet the current requirements of large-scale 500~2000 Nm3 / h alkaline solution and ALK electrolyzers. The valve side of the single-unit 48-pulse rectifier transformer can drive four 12-pulse rectifiers with a 15° phase difference, effectively realizing the one-to-four function, while also effectively reducing the system's size and weight, and significantly reducing the overall cost, which is conducive to the rapid industrialization of green hydrogen.

[0009] Each 24-pulse rectifier transformer shares a three-limb core. Considering that when two transformers are operating in combination, there is a 15° phase difference in the magnetic flux passing through the upper and lower limbs on the grid side, a conjugate core is designed in the three-limb core. The conjugate core can provide an additional magnetic circuit for the magnetic flux of the upper and lower limbs under different phase conditions, which realizes the magnetic isolation and independent operation of the upper and lower windings, and also effectively reduces the size and weight of the system.
