Description
Technical Field

Background
Voltage fluctuations and flicker are a series of voltage random variations or periodic variations of the voltage envelope and the resulting illumination flicker. Voltage fluctuations and flicker are an important technical indicator of the power quality of an electrical power system.
Wherein, the voltage flicker is the visual response of human eyes which is unstable in light illumination caused by voltage fluctuation. The voltage flicker reflects the influence of the light flicker caused by the voltage fluctuation on the human visual perception. Voltage flicker is a result of voltage fluctuations, which are not electromagnetic phenomena. In order to reflect the instantaneous flicker sensation level of a human, the instantaneous flicker sensation level is described by the change of the instantaneous value of the flicker intensity along with time, namely the instantaneous flicker visual sensitivity, which is the result of the comprehensive action of the frequency, the waveform, the size and the like of voltage fluctuation, and the curve of the change along with time is the basis for evaluating and measuring flicker. When the instantaneous flicker visual sensitivity is larger than 1, the condition that more people in the experimental observer have obvious feeling on the flicker of the light is defined as the corresponding flicker impermissible level.
The IEC recommended flicker meter block diagram includes a module for inputting an adaptive self-test signal, namely normalizing the input voltage.
The half-wave effective value of the first normalization method is output through a first-order low-pass filter with a time constant of 27.3s, the signal is updated once every half cycle, and the output signal is used for normalizing the sampling point of the half cycle.
The second normalization method adopts the sliding of 1 minute voltage effective value to carry out normalization, updates every half cycle, and uses the output signal to carry out normalization on the sampling point of the half cycle.
The two methods can realize the normalization of signals, but because the output value of the half-cycle wave is not constant, the relative fluctuation amount of the effective value of the voltage is changed when the normalization processing is carried out on the input voltage signal.

Detailed Description
The following describes a specific embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings.
The flicker test mechanism provided by the invention firstly adopts a self-defined root mean square value to normalize the input voltage, then simulates the behavior of an incandescent lamp by restoring the fluctuation of the voltage, then selects the frequency which can be accepted by human eyes and highlights the most sensitive frequency by using a low-pass filter and a visibility weighting filter respectively, then inputs another low-pass filter and outputs the instantaneous flicker visibility and the maximum value of the instantaneous flicker visibility within a preset time, and finally obtains a short flicker statistic value. In addition, the invention further comprises the following steps of instantaneous flicker visibility maximum value and short flicker statistic correction.
Wherein, preferably, the root mean square value of the first 10 cycles is adopted by the inventionTo normalize the input voltage a over ten minutes. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention can also select any other rms value of n cycles to normalize the input voltage for a predetermined time, and all such rms values are within the scope of the present invention. For convenience of explanation, the present invention will be described by taking 10 cycles and ten minutes as examples.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating steps of a flicker testing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the flicker testing method provided by the present invention includes the following steps.
First, step S1 is executed to adopt the RMS value of the first 10 cyclesNormalizing the input voltage A within ten minutes and outputting the normalized input voltage
Wherein A is the input voltage, VrefVsc is the internal reference value, g is the scaling factorm(t) is a rectangular square wave for modulation, ω0Is the fundamental angular frequency.
In this step, a voltage adaptation circuit (voltage adaptation circuit) is used to measure the input voltage of the power supply frequency to an internal standard level (internal reference level). The normalization step is to reduce the influence of the input voltage A on the output of the step as much as possible, so that the output changes only by g as much as possiblem(t) is determined. Specifically, the purpose of step S1 is to make the flicker measurement independent of the input voltage level and by reducing the input voltage level to an internal reference value VrefTo retain the relative amount of fluctuation.
The waveform shown in FIG. 2 has an ordinate gm(T) with time T, T on the abscissamRepresenting the time of one cycle. Rectangular square waveWherein the content of the first and second substances,is the peak-to-peak amplitude, fmIs the frequency.
Then, step S2 is performed to recover the fluctuation of the input voltage by squaring the normalized input voltage to simulate the behavior of the incandescent lamp. Wherein the output of step S2 is:
wherein, VrefAs an internal reference value, Vsc is a scaling factor,for peak-to-peak amplitude, A is the behavior of the simulated human eye, and the filtered voltage is passed through a perceptibility weighting filterThe amount of fluctuation is weighted to highlight the frequencies to which the human eye is most sensitive. The two filters are used for eliminating the direct current component and strongly weakening the frequency component to be more than 2f0. The input of step S3 is:
specifically, human eyes feel different to fluctuation of different frequencies, the frequency which can be felt and responded by the human eyes is 0.05-35 hz, the human eyes are most sensitive to 8.8hz, and even if the fluctuation amplitude is the same, the human eyes are particularly uncomfortable to 8.8. Therefore, in step S3, the voltage fluctuation is filtered out by passing through the first low pass filter to simulate the behavior of the human eye, and then further passed through the visual perception weighting filter, the frequency 8.8hz is set as the maximum value of 1, and the perception of the human eye is not set to 1 to highlight the frequency most sensitive to the human eye.
Then, step S4 is executed to square the output of step S3, input the squared output into the second low-pass filter, and output the instantaneous flicker visibilityAnd instantaneous flicker visual acuity maximum over ten minutesSpecifically, step S4 simulates a non-linear human eye-to-human brain response, and then calculates the proportion of the perceptual-storage effect to the human brain.
Finally, step S5 is executed to count all pinsts in a predetermined time to obtain the short flicker statistic Pst.
Further, the RMS value of the first 10 cycles is customized in step S1 according to the present inventionThe input voltage a is normalized for ten minutes, and thus the instantaneous flicker visibility output at step S4 or step S5And instantaneous flicker visual acuity maximum over ten minutesAll are modulated values, and the final step requires correction to output the most accurate value. Therefore, the testing method further includes step S6 of correcting the maximum instantaneous flicker visibility, where the corrected maximum instantaneous flicker visibility is:
wherein the content of the first and second substances,is the root mean square value within a predetermined time.
Further, the testing method further includes step S7, correcting the short flicker statistic, where the corrected short flicker statistic is:
wherein the content of the first and second substances,is the root mean square value within a predetermined time.
The second aspect of the present invention also provides a flicker testing apparatus, as shown in fig. 3, the flicker testing apparatus 100 includes a normalization apparatus 110, a first simulation apparatus 120, a second simulation apparatus 130, an output apparatus 140, a statistic apparatus 150, and a modification apparatus 160. Wherein the normalizing means 110 is configured to execute step S1, the first simulating means 120 is configured to execute step S2, the second simulating means 130 is configured to execute step S3, the output means 140 is configured to execute step S4, the statistical means 150 is configured to execute step S5, and the correcting means 160 is configured to execute steps S6 and S7.
The flicker testing device provided by the invention is supported by mature hardware or a combination of software and hardware in the prior art, and is not described again for the sake of simplicity.
The prior art typically uses a timely root mean square value for normalization, so that the output of the normalization step is not only from the input voltage a but also from a rectangular square wave gm(t) is determined. The invention normalizes the input voltage within ten minutes by using the customized root mean square value of the first 10 cycles, and the normalization step reduces the influence of the input voltage A on the output of the step as much as possible, so that the output of the step only changes by g as much as possiblem(t) is determined. However, the instantaneous flicker perceptibility thus obtainedAnd instantaneous flicker visual acuity maximum value in a predetermined timeAnd therefore the present invention is particularly provided with a correction step or means for performing correction so as to output an accurate instantaneous flicker visibility Pinst and an instantaneous flicker visibility maximum value Pinst _ max for a predetermined time. The invention ensures that the relative fluctuation quantity is not changed in the test, the calculation quantity is not large, and the accurate instantaneous flicker visual sensitivity and the maximum value of the instantaneous flicker visual sensitivity in the preset time can be finally output.
