Description

SF based on arc energy6Method for predicting service life of arc extinguish chamber of circuit breaker
Technical Field
The invention relates to an SF based on arc energy6A life prediction method for an arc extinguish chamber of a circuit breaker belongs to the technical field of evaluation of the arc extinguish chamber of the circuit breaker.
Background
The high-voltage circuit breaker is the most important protection and control equipment of a power system, and the service life of the SF6 circuit breaker is increasingly highlighted along with the extension of the running time, wherein the failure of the circuit breaker can cause the expansion of the accident range, so that the reliability of a power grid is reduced. Therefore, effective evaluation of the state of the circuit breaker has very important significance for preventing accidents and improving the stability of a power grid. The circuit breaker consists of three parts: the arc extinguishing chamber, the control unit and the operating mechanism.
Most circuit breaker faults occur in the arc chute. The evaluation of the state of the arc chute is difficult compared to other parts of the circuit breaker. The main reason is that in the switching-on and switching-off process of the circuit breaker, part of energy of arc burning is absorbed by a contact and a nozzle in an arc extinguishing chamber, and the thermal process causes contact erosion and nozzle ablation. Resulting in an increased rate of breaker failure. Different characteristic parameters are currently used to evaluate the state of the arc extinguishing chamber. These parameters include the number of switching on and off, the dynamic and static resistance of the contacts, the amount of charge, and the arc voltage and current. But these parameters do not allow real-time status monitoring of the stylus and the spout.
Aiming at the abrasion condition of the arc extinguish chamber of the circuit breaker, a plurality of researches on the state evaluation of the arc extinguish chamber of the circuit breaker are carried out at present, and certain achievements are obtained.
Publication No. CN1645534A, entitled method for inspecting a circuit breaker, relates to a method for inspecting a circuit breaker having a fixed contact and a moving contact, which have one secondary contact and one main contact, respectively, wherein the moving contact is moved by a controllable motor. The switching process is carried out with a predeterminable movement process, wherein during the switching process a measurement value of the drive current of the electric motor and/or a measurement value of the displacement which the moving contact has traversed is recorded. The recorded measured values are taken into account for evaluating the state of the contact or the state of the transmission chain.
The defects of the method are as follows: the dynamic resistance is the resistance corresponding to the static loop resistance, i.e. the arcing contact resistance, which needs to be measured during the dynamic phase of the circuit breaker opening. This parameter reflects the combined effect of the arc contact resistance and the arc contact travel, and has long been used in the state evaluation of the breaker contacts, but it is time-consuming and complex, and is only used for the off-line detection of the breaker, and is not suitable for the on-line monitoring.
The method is mainly characterized in that a discharge gap formed by a floating potential body is arranged at a position with certain electric field intensity in a vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber; when the vacuum arc extinguish chamber is in the normal range of operating voltage and vacuum degree, the discharge gap does not discharge; when the vacuum degree of the vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber is reduced, so that the insulation strength is reduced, the discharge gap discharges; the vacuum degree of the vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber is detected on line by detecting the discharge condition of the discharge gap. The invention has simple structure and realization and can carry out on-line detection.
Therefore, the above method has the following defects: the sum of the successful on-off currents was measured using a laboratory manual short circuit test. The remaining life of the circuit breaker is the ratio of the current that has been switched off to the sum of the currents that can be switched off. The disadvantage of this method is that only the magnitude of the current is taken into account, and the combined consideration of the arc time and the arc voltage is lacking.

Fig. 1 shows the basic structure of the arc chute. Nozzle 3 for generating SF for cooling the arc6And (4) air flow. When the circuit breaker acts, the arc burning generated by the contact of the moving arc contact 2 and the static arc contact 1 in the high-current stage can block the gas from flowing through the nozzleIt becomes "nozzle clogging". The spout blockage is more or less accompanied by evaporation of the spout 3 material, resulting in ablation of the spout 3.
The wear of the arc-extinguishing chamber is mainly SF6Erosion of the arcing contacts in the circuit breaker and ablation of the nozzle. When the heat in the arc column is intensively transferred to the surface of the contact in the fault current breaking process, the heat distribution in the form of heat conduction is very uneven, a small part of the contact material is locally and rapidly heated to the vaporization temperature, the turbulent flow characteristic is presented, the metal plasma jet flow is the mode of separating the material from the motor, and the mechanism is considered to be the main reason of contact erosion. The amount of erosion of the contacts is related to the arc energy, the arcing time, and the size and shape of the contacts as well as the material properties. The immediate consequence of contact erosion is contact deformation, embodied in increased surface roughness and reduced contact length. These adverse effects will affect the current switching process of the main contacts 4 and the arcing contacts (the moving arcing contact 2 and the fixed arcing contact 1) and the dielectric insulation performance of the gap, thereby reducing the opening reliability of the circuit breaker.
SF based on electric arc energy6The method for predicting the service life of the arc extinguish chamber of the circuit breaker comprises the following steps:
step S1, calculating the rated accumulated arc energy;
step S2, calculating the arc energy born by the breaker;
and step S3, the residual service life of the arc extinguish chamber is obtained by the ratio of the arc energy born by the circuit breaker to the rated accumulated arc energy. In this embodiment, the rated accumulated arc energy is a sum of arcing energy that the arc extinguish chamber can bear in the whole life cycle, and there are two calculation methods, the first calculation method is: repeating the manual short circuit breaking test until the arc extinguish chamber fails to break; measuring the arc energy of each time in a short circuit breaking test, and summing to obtain rated accumulated arc energy;
the second calculation method is as follows: obtaining the operation times of the circuit breaker from a circuit breaker operation manual, then carrying out an artificial short circuit breaking test, and recording the energy of the electric arc; the nominal cumulative arc energy is equal to the average experimentally measured arc energy multiplied by the number of circuit breaker operations life.
Further, in this embodiment, the second calculation method performs the following calculation formula of the rated cumulative arc energy:
AEarc=N×Er (1)
in the formula, AEarcIs the rated cumulative arc energy; n is the number of times the circuit breaker is operated life; erIs the arc energy measured by the circuit breaker when breaking the rated short circuit current test.
Further to this embodiment, the calculation formula of the arc energy that the circuit breaker has endured is as follows:
Figure BDA0003215861610000061
wherein E is the arc energy; u (t) is the arc voltage; i (t) is the arc current, tarcIs the arcing time.
Further, the life index prediction formula after the kth operation of the circuit breaker is as follows:
Figure BDA0003215861610000062
in the formula, AEarcRepresenting rated accumulated arc energy; eiIs the arc energy during the ith operation; RLkIs the remaining life of the arc chute after the kth operation; TL is the total life of the arc chute related to the rated number of disconnections.
When a fault current flows through the circuit breaker main contacts, the circuit breaker break voltage is about tens of millivolts. When the circuit breaker is opened, the main contacts are separated, the current path is switched from the main contacts to the arc contacts, and the break voltage of the circuit breaker is about hundreds of millivolts. And when the arcing contacts just separate, the current density increases dramatically, forming a molten metal bridge. The continuous rise in current density and temperature of the metal bridge eventually leads to evaporation of the metal bridge. When the gap distance between the contacts is several micrometers, the arc is filled with a large amount of metal vapor. The arc is now in the metallic phase. When the gap between the contacts is increased, the gas around the arc is electrifiedThe ions thereby become part of an arc that is transformed from a metal phase to a gas phase. When the metal phase is formed, the arc voltage is increased to about 10V to 15V. Then during the transition of the arc from the metallic phase to the gaseous phase, the arc path impedance rises, resulting in a rise in the arc voltage. The arc voltage during arcing is on the order of several hundred volts. When the arc current approaches 0, the arc voltage rises abruptly and has a high amplitude. 24kV SF6A graph of the arc voltage recording for the circuit breaker is shown in figure 2.
Further to this embodiment, the arc voltage is measured with an arc voltage measuring device; the arc current is measured by a current transformer;
the arc voltage measuring device comprises a circuit breaker, a capacitive voltage divider, a power switch, a transient diode, a voltage buffer, an isolation amplifier, a light transmitter-signal receiver, a signal processing unit and a switch control unit.
Further to this embodiment, the capacitive voltage divider is connected in parallel to the source side and the load side of the circuit breaker; the power switch is electrically connected between the capacitive voltage divider and the transient diode; the transient diode is electrically connected with the voltage buffer and the isolation amplifier; the voltage buffer is connected with the isolation amplifier in a bidirectional way; the switch control unit acquires the information of the voltage buffer and controls the power switch; the isolation amplifier is electrically connected with the optical transmitter-signal receiver; the optical transmitter-signal receiver transmits the signal to the signal processing unit.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a measurement system. The capacitive voltage divider is used for reducing the transient recovery voltage amplitude, can realize the electrical isolation of the circuit breaker and the measuring system, and also eliminates the measurement error caused by the grounding loop of the circuit breaker and the measuring system. Due to the low amplitude input requirements of the isolation amplifier and the optical transmitter, the TVS transient diode series resistor is adopted to limit high energy impact. The voltage signal isolation is realized by an isolation amplifier. The light projector component is used to prevent electromagnetic interference in signal transmission.
Further, in this embodiment, the output end of the capacitive voltage divider is connected in series with a filter, and is connected in series with a transient diode after passing through the filter, and the transient diode is connected in series with a resistor for limiting high energy impact; and a shielding box is fixedly arranged on the outer side of the transient diode and the series resistor thereof.
Further, the arc voltage measuring device is connected to the grid through a relay switch; when the secondary protection device sends out a tripping signal of the circuit breaker, the relay acts; the disconnection of the relay is realized by using transient recovery voltage; in the loop, a voltage buffer is used for protecting the main circuit from voltage impact; comparing the output of the voltage buffer to a reference voltage, the reference voltage being scaled to be 3-6 times higher than the arc voltage; the relay is then opened if the voltage data obtained at the voltage buffer exceeds a reference value.
Further to this example, an artificial short circuit test was performed at 24kV SF6Testing the performance of the arc voltage measuring device on the circuit breaker; and comparing and verifying the predicted result and the actual test.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, the artificial short circuit test loop includes two parallel branches. The left branch circuit simulates to generate short-circuit fault current, and the right branch circuit simulates to generate transient recovery voltage between fractures after the arc is extinguished. In order to measure the arc voltage during the experiment, a measuring device is connected to the output of a capacitive voltage divider connected in parallel with the circuit breaker. To limit the transient recovery voltage amplitude during circuit breaker operation, the voltage division ratio is set to 1: 2000. Therefore, the transient recovery voltage amplitude will be reduced to several tens of volts. The output signal of the measuring system will be transmitted to the control room, from which the arc voltage can be measured accurately.
Fig. 5 is a diagram showing the waveforms of the arc voltage and the arc current of the breaker breaking rated short-circuit current (25kA) in the test, and the short-circuit arcing time is 13 ms-14 ms. Fig. 6 is a graph of the calculated arc energy for the same parameter experiment. Under the working condition of the existing circuit breaker, the rated arc energy calculated by the formula (2) is about 40 kJ. Then, the rated cumulative arc energy is calculated by equation (1). According to the test breaker manual, N takes a value of 20. Therefore, the rated cumulative arc can be 800 kJ. This value is valid for any one circuit breaker of the same model.
The remaining useful life of the arc extinguishing chamber can be calculated by equation (3). A total of 6 tests of different arcing times and amplitudes were performed to compare the accuracy of the life predictions of the new and conventional methods. According to the formula (3), the residual effective life of the arc-extinguishing chamber after 6 times of breaking operations is calculated by adopting a new method to be 80.6%, and the residual effective life of the arc-extinguishing chamber according to the traditional method is only 70%. The prediction results of the two methods are more and more different with the increase of the operation times. The reason is that the conventional prediction method does not take into account the difference in arc energy during each operation.
The failure of the arc chute is directly related to the arc energy, which is related to the arc voltage. On the other hand, the arc voltage varies with the arc current, for example, the average value of the arc voltage is 202V at 9.3kA and 175V at 25 kA. Therefore, predicting arc chamber life using arc energy is most straightforward and accurate. A comparison of the arc voltage waveforms at two different fault currents (9.3kA and 25kA) is shown in fig. 7.
