Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of short circuit fault detection technology, specifically relating to a fast-response circuit short circuit detector. Background Technology

[0002] With the large-scale application of power electronic equipment in ship integrated power systems, the time constant of DC systems has decreased, and the requirements for the rapid response of short-circuit fault protection are high, posing a severe challenge to system protection design and continuous operation. When a short-circuit fault occurs, the energy stored in the capacitors is rapidly released to the short-circuit point, with discharge currents ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of amperes. If the parallel capacitors used for energy storage and smoothing cannot quickly and reliably disconnect the fault, it will cause a sharp increase in system fault current and a drop in DC bus voltage, leading to the shutdown of other normally operating converters and severely affecting the continuity and reliability of power supply. Therefore, this invention proposes a fast-response circuit short-circuit detector. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings in the prior art, the present invention provides a fast-response circuit short-circuit detector to solve the problems in the background art.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A fast-response circuit short-circuit detector includes a port side terminal block and a starboard side terminal block. The port side terminal block is sequentially connected to a resistor R1, a port side disconnect switch, and a port side switch. The starboard side terminal block is sequentially connected to a resistor R4, a starboard side disconnect switch, and a starboard side switch. A current-limiting reactor L is connected in series between the port side switch and the starboard side switch. A port side voltage signal acquisition module is connected in parallel to the outside of the port side disconnect switch, and a starboard side voltage signal acquisition module is connected in parallel to the outside of the starboard side disconnect switch. Furthermore, the port side voltage signal acquisition module includes a resistor R2 connected to the input terminal of resistor R1, the output terminal of resistor R2 connected to the input terminal of optocoupler U1, and the output terminal of optocoupler U1 connected to the output terminal of resistor R1; the port side voltage signal acquisition module also includes a power supply VDD, a resistor R3, and a capacitor C3 connected to the primary side of optocoupler U1 respectively, the resistor R3 and the capacitor C3 are connected in parallel, their output terminals are grounded, and the input terminals of the resistor R3 and the capacitor C3 are also connected to the negative terminal of the port side terminal block; Furthermore, the starboard voltage signal acquisition module includes a resistor R5 connected to the input terminal of resistor R4, the output terminal of resistor R5 being connected to the input terminal of optocoupler U2, and the output terminal of optocoupler U2 being connected to the output terminal of resistor R4; the port voltage signal acquisition module also includes a power supply VDD, a resistor R6, and a capacitor C4, all connected to the primary side of optocoupler U2 respectively. Resistor R6 and capacitor C4 are connected in parallel, and their output terminals are grounded. The input terminals of resistor R6 and capacitor C4 are also connected to the negative terminal of the port terminal block.

[0005] Furthermore, the port side voltage signal acquisition module and the starboard side voltage signal acquisition module are connected to the controller. Resistors R1 and R2 are used to acquire the port side line voltage, which is electrically isolated by optocoupler U1. Resistors R3 and capacitor C3 are used for filtering and current limiting before transmitting the voltage signal to the controller. Resistors R4 and R5 are used to acquire the starboard side line voltage, which is electrically isolated by optocoupler U2. Resistors R6 and capacitor C4 are used for filtering and current limiting before transmitting the voltage signal to the controller.

[0006] Furthermore, the port and starboard switches are IGBT switches, which are connected to the input and output stages of the IGBT driver board, respectively, and the IGBT driver board is connected to the controller.

[0007] Furthermore, a capacitor C1 is connected in parallel to the outside of the port side switch, and a port side power diode DA1 is connected in anti-parallel to its inside.

[0008] Furthermore, a capacitor C2 is connected in parallel to the outside of the starboard switch, and a starboard power diode DA2 is connected in antiparallel to its inside.

[0009] Furthermore, the current-limiting reactor L, together with the port power diode DA1 and the starboard power diode DA2, forms a freewheeling circuit, which allows the fault current to be consumed in the freewheeling circuit, reducing the voltage stress of the fault-side current on the IGBT.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: 1. This utility model adopts a multi-level response mode formed by the voltage signal acquisition module and the current-limiting reactor L. When a short-circuit fault occurs, the port and starboard voltage signal acquisition modules detect the voltage signal and transmit the signal to the controller. The controller sends a shutdown signal to the TGBT drive board to quickly disconnect the port and starboard switches. After the short circuit, the current-limiting reactor and the freewheeling diode form a freewheeling circuit, so that the fault current is consumed in the freewheeling circuit, reducing the voltage stress of the fault side current on the IGBT, thereby protecting the power electronic devices from overvoltage damage.

Resistor R6 and capacitor C4 are connected in parallel, and their output terminals are grounded. The input terminals of resistor R6 and capacitor C4 are also connected to the negative terminal of the port terminal block.

[0014] Furthermore, the port side voltage signal acquisition module and the starboard side voltage signal acquisition module are connected to the controller. Resistors R1 and R2 are used to acquire the port side line voltage, which is electrically isolated by optocoupler U1. Resistors R3 and capacitor C3 are used for filtering and current limiting before transmitting the voltage signal to the controller. Resistors R4 and R5 are used to acquire the starboard side line voltage, which is electrically isolated by optocoupler U2. Resistors R6 and capacitor C4 are used for filtering and current limiting before transmitting the voltage signal to the controller.

[0015] Furthermore, the port and starboard switches are IGBT switches, which are connected to the input and output stages of the IGBT driver board, respectively, and the IGBT driver board is connected to the controller.

[0019] like Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, the working principle is as follows: This utility model adopts a voltage signal acquisition module and a current-limiting reactor L to form a multi-level response mode. When a short-circuit fault occurs, the voltage values ​​on both sides of resistors R1 and R4 of the port and starboard voltage signal acquisition modules increase. The increased voltage passes through optocouplers U1 and U2, causing optocouplers U1 and U2 to conduct instantaneously. The voltage generated on the primary side of optocouplers U1 and U2 instantaneously passes through capacitors C3 and C4 to generate an output signal, which is transmitted to the controller. The controller sends a shutdown signal to the TGBT driver board to quickly disconnect the port and starboard switches. Furthermore, after the short circuit, the current-limiting reactor and the freewheeling diode form a freewheeling circuit, which consumes the fault current in the freewheeling circuit, reducing the voltage stress of the fault side current on the IGBT, thereby protecting the power electronic devices from overvoltage damage.
