Description

Photovoltaic direct-current arc fault identification device, identification method and photovoltaic system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of power electronics, in particular to a photovoltaic direct-current arc fault identification device, a photovoltaic direct-current arc fault identification method and a photovoltaic system.
Background
With the rapid development of new energy technology, photovoltaic systems are more and more widely applied, but due to the aging of solar photovoltaic panels and other reasons, direct current arc faults are easily generated inside the photovoltaic systems, so that fire disasters are caused, and life and property safety of the masses are threatened, so that detection of direct current arcs is necessary. The electrical characteristics of the dc arc include current, voltage, etc., but since the arc position is random, it is difficult to collect the voltage signal of the arc by using a sensor, which causes difficulty in collecting the arc voltage data, so that the method usually collects the dc arc current data for processing and analyzing.
The sampling frequency of the existing direct current arc current detection technology is mostly 300kHz and below, namely, only the low-frequency part of an arc signal is analyzed, and the analysis of the high-frequency part is abandoned, so that the detection of the direct current arc has certain limitation. For example, a PCI data acquisition card is used for detecting and analyzing a current signal, and the sampling frequency of the PCI data acquisition card is set to be 10 kHz; or the arc detection part comprises a hardware filter circuit, an ADC sampling part and a DSP digital processing part, wherein the hardware filter circuit filters signals below 20kHz to reduce the interference of noise of the inverter, an SM73201 sampling chip is used for arc data acquisition, the highest sampling rate of the chip is 250kHz, the sampling frequency in an experiment is set as 180kHz, the sampling data of each time is 1024 data points, and the frequency spectrum obtained after Fourier transform processing is symmetrical by taking 90kHz as a boundary, so that the frequency spectrum below 90kHz is only used for analysis, and the detection requirement on the arc is basically met. However, when an arc occurs, the high frequency content in the current is increased, and when other current detection methods are adopted, the chip sampling rate of 250kHz may not meet the requirements. The time domain method is adopted to detect the current signal, the high sampling frequency of more than 1MHz is needed, and obviously, the SM73201 sampling chip is not suitable for time domain detection. If the high-frequency signals are directly collected, the requirement on hardware is high, and the cost is also increased.
The siemens corporation patent application publication No. WO2021051401a1 describes an arc detection method that utilizes a plurality of band pass filters and other modules to collect a plurality of narrow band signals in the arc signal. Because the frequency of the alternating current power supply is low (50-60 Hz) and has periodic characteristics, and the load type of the alternating current arc generating circuit is limited and mostly is a power frequency load, the alternating current arc signal has certain regularity, the interference generated by the alternating current power supply is concentrated on a low-frequency part, and whether the alternating current arc fault exists can be detected by collecting a plurality of narrow-band signals above 100 kHz; however, the direct current arc signals are disordered, the direct current arc signal frequency band and the interference frequency band have overlapped parts, only narrow-band signals are collected, the characteristics of the direct current arc cannot be accurately reflected, the load of the photovoltaic direct current arc generation circuit is mainly an inverter, the working frequency of the inverter is above 20kHz, although the noise interference of the inverter can be ingeniously avoided by collecting a plurality of narrow-band signals, the characteristic frequency bands of partial direct current arc are ignored, and the arc detection method is suitable for the alternating current arc detection condition but not suitable for the detection of the direct current arc.
At present, no economical direct current arc current detection solution exists.

In the field of arc detection, a time domain method is adopted to detect current signals, and high sampling frequency of more than 1MHz is required, so that the SM73201 and other sampling chips are not suitable for time domain detection obviously; if the high-frequency signal is directly collected, the requirement on hardware is high, and the cost is greatly increased. The invention aims to provide a solution which can simultaneously acquire a low-frequency signal and a high-frequency signal and has better economical efficiency to complete the task of detecting the direct current arc current.
In an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a photovoltaic dc arc fault identification apparatus, as shown in fig. 1, which includes a differential current detection module, a signal processing module and a fault processing unit, and the following detailed description is made for the differential current detection module, the signal processing module and the fault processing unit:
and the differential current detection module is configured to adopt a differential detection method to acquire a current signal on a branch between the output side of the photovoltaic array and the input side of the inverter, namely the photovoltaic array is used as a power supply, and the output direct current of the photovoltaic array flows into the differential current detection module and then enters the inverter for grid-connected operation. The benefits of this are: in a photovoltaic system, when a direct current arc fault occurs, direct currents of a positive bus and a negative bus of a photovoltaic power supply simultaneously comprise a fault arc current signal and an inverter common mode current noise signal, wherein the inverter common mode current noise is related to a PWM control strategy, so that the common mode current noise generally has periodic repeatability within a certain time scale, and the direct current arc signal does not have the repetition rule. Therefore, the differential current detection method is adopted to carry out differential processing on the signals, so that common mode current noise in the positive bus and the negative bus can be effectively eliminated/reduced, and a direct current arc fault signal can be effectively extracted. There are two specific embodiments: in one embodiment, referring to fig. 4, the differential current detection module includes a current transformer, and positive and negative bus bars are connected from the photovoltaic array, and both the positive and negative bus bars pass through the current transformer, and the principle is as follows: because the noise signal of the inverter has certain regularity, the magnetic field generated in the mutual inductor can be offset, the noise signal of the inverter in the current signal induced by the mutual inductor is greatly inhibited, the direct current arc signal is disordered, the magnetic field generated in the mutual inductor cannot be offset, and the current signal induced by the mutual inductor still contains the arc signal; in another embodiment, referring to fig. 5, the differential current detection module includes a first current transformer, a second current transformer, and a differential module, and positive and negative buses are connected from the photovoltaic array, wherein the positive bus is connected to one end of the differential module after passing through the first current transformer, and the negative bus is connected to the other end of the differential module after passing through the second current transformer, and the principle is as follows: because the noise signal of the inverter has certain regularity, the signal almost disappears after the subtraction, and the direct current arc signal is disordered, so the signal does not disappear after the subtraction, and the purpose of inhibiting the noise signal of the inverter is achieved.
A signal processing module configured to process the current signal collected by the differential current detection module to obtain a signal to be detected, see fig. 2, where the signal processing module includes a band-pass filter circuit and an amplification module, where the band-pass filter circuit is configured to filter the current signal collected by the differential current detection module, and the prior art collects multiple segments of narrow-band current signals for analysis due to difficulty in removing noise interference of an inverter, and ignores a part of a dc arc characteristic frequency band although the noise frequency band of the inverter is avoided skillfully, so that the accuracy of dc arc detection is reduced; and the current signal that difference current detection module gathered passes through band-pass filter circuit and gathers broadband signal, and this broadband signal has covered direct current arc panorama characteristic, avoids neglecting partly direct current arc characteristic frequency channel, and consequently, the direct current arc testing result accuracy degree in this embodiment is higher. Referring to fig. 3, the amplification module includes a logarithmic detection unit and an amplification circuit, the logarithmic detection unit is configured to perform logarithmic processing on the filtered current signal, the logarithmic detection function of the embodiment is mainly realized by a logarithmic detection chip, the working voltage of the logarithmic detection chip satisfies 3.3V-5V, the signal bandwidth satisfies 1k-10MHz, the typical current value is 7.5mA, the measurement range is greatly increased, the sampling frequency reaches the MHz level, the power consumption is low, and the economic requirement is satisfied; the amplification circuit is configured to amplify the signal output by the logarithmic detection unit; the differential current detection module is used for filtering data acquired by the differential current detection module through a band-pass filter circuit contained in the signal processing module, the amplification module is used for processing current signals, specifically, a logarithmic detection unit and an amplification circuit are adopted, the logarithmic detection unit acquires the current signals by utilizing the function of carrying out logarithmic processing on the filtered current data to enlarge the sampling range, the amplification circuit can enable the characteristics of the current signals to be more obvious, meanwhile, logarithmic detection can reflect the signal intensity, direct current arc faults can be identified quickly, the fault arc identification and protection speed is improved, the logarithmic detection method can reflect the current signal change trend, and the detection characteristics of the macroscopic level are represented. In one embodiment, the input end of the logarithm detection unit is connected with a multi-way switch, the multi-way switch is matched with a plurality of photovoltaic panel sets of the photovoltaic array in a string manner, circuits can be switched randomly through the multi-way switch, different circuits can be connected, the photovoltaic system can be better adapted to the situation that the photovoltaic system comprises a plurality of groups of photovoltaic panel sets in a string manner, meanwhile, the purpose of respectively detecting a plurality of paths of current signals can be achieved by only adopting one path of logarithm detection unit, and the economy is better. Band-pass filter circuit is the active band-pass filter circuit including resistance, electric capacity and operational amplifier, refers to fig. 6, and band-pass filter circuit and logarithm detection chip cooperate, more can improve the direct current electric arc detection degree of accuracy: the current signals output by the differential current detection module are sent to an active band-pass filter circuit formed by C1, C2, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and an operational amplifier in the figure 6, so that unnecessary signals are filtered; the active band-pass filter circuit needs to use an operational amplifier, and an RLC band-pass filter circuit can also be used if the cost is further reduced, as shown in fig. 7. Then the current data flows into a logarithm detection chip, the chip carries out logarithm processing on the current signal, the current data output by the chip is amplified by an amplification module and then is sent into a fault processing unit to analyze the power spectral density of the signal so as to carry out preprocessing on arc data, and then whether an arc exists or not is judged by using an algorithm, which is specifically referred to below.
And the fault processing unit is configured to analyze the signal to be detected output by the signal processing module, and if the arc fault is determined to exist, a control instruction is sent to the inverter, and the control instruction is configured to disconnect a grid-connected circuit of the inverter. In an embodiment of the invention, the fault processing unit adopts a single chip, that is, the single chip processing unit communicates with the inverter to obtain the current working state of the inverter, and because different states have different interferences, under the premise of obtaining the current working state of the inverter, an interference signal of the current working state of the inverter can be removed during signal processing, so as to facilitate the judgment of whether a direct current arc exists or not, for example, obtaining that the inverter is currently in a PWM modulation mode, the single chip processing unit inquires the interference frequency in the pre-stored PWM modulation mode, removes the interference signal matched with the current working state of the inverter from the signal to be detected processed by the signal processing module according to the interference frequency, and then judges whether the arc fault exists or not, so that the arc characteristics are comprehensively analyzed, the arc detection is well promoted, and the detection accuracy is improved, if the arc fault exists, the single chip sends an instruction to the inverter to disconnect the grid-connected circuit, so that the circuit is protected. The photovoltaic direct current arc fault identification method and device collect arc current signals.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the amplifying module further includes a second processing mode, that is, the amplifying module further includes an a/D conversion module, the a/D conversion module can better retain signal details, and is configured to process the filtered current signal and/or the current signal output by the amplifying circuit, and the a/D conversion mode can collect a real-time signal, can reflect a change of the current signal in details, and represents a detection characteristic at a microscopic level. The former method using the logarithmic detection unit and the amplification circuit embodies the detection characteristics of the macroscopic level, when the fault characteristics are detected macroscopically, the a/D conversion module does not need to be selected, when the fault characteristics are not detected macroscopically, the a/D conversion module is further selected, that is, whether the a/D conversion module is used or not is controlled according to the result of the macroscopically detecting, as shown in fig. 3, the input end of the a/D conversion module is connected with one or more switches, the amplification module further comprises a control unit, and if the a/D conversion module is needed, the control unit controls the conduction of the one or more switches at the input end of the a/D conversion module; if the A/D conversion module is not needed, the control unit controls one or more switches at the input end of the A/D conversion module to be switched off. Specifically, if the amplitude of the current signal output by the amplifying circuit is between a preset first threshold and a preset second threshold, where the first threshold is higher than the second threshold, the control unit controls the conduction of a corresponding switch in one or more switches at the input end of the a/D conversion module; if the amplitude of the current signal output by the amplifying circuit is higher than the first threshold value or lower than the second threshold value, the control unit controls one or more switches at the input end of the A/D conversion module to be switched off. The first threshold value may be selected to have a value at a timing of about 33% higher than the current normal signal, and the second threshold value may be selected to have a value at a timing of about 25% lower than the current normal signal. The control unit mainly judges whether the amplitude of the current signal reaches the range between the first threshold and the second threshold, and the control unit can be realized by a hardware circuit or a software mode. The multi-way switch can be connected in front of the A/D conversion module, lines can be switched randomly so that a plurality of photovoltaic panel sets connected with the photovoltaic array can be connected, the photovoltaic system is better suitable for the condition that the photovoltaic system comprises a plurality of sets of photovoltaic arrays, meanwhile, the purpose of respectively detecting multi-way current signals can be achieved by only adopting one A/D conversion module, and the economy is good.
The single-chip microcomputer algorithm for photovoltaic direct-current arc detection has various algorithms, and in recent years, the artificial intelligence algorithm is widely applied to arc detection due to high accuracy, so the artificial intelligence algorithm is adopted for arc fault detection in the embodiment; and the single chip processing unit is communicated with the inverter to obtain the current working state of the inverter, and interference signals of the current working state of the inverter can be removed during signal processing, so that the existence of the direct current arc can be conveniently judged. Referring to fig. 8, the specific steps of analyzing the to-be-detected signal output by the signal processing module by the fault processing unit include:
s1, the fault processing unit receives the signal to be detected output by the signal processing module;
s2, judging whether the sampling time of the signal to be detected reaches a preset time window threshold value, wherein the time window threshold value is generally 5ms or 10ms, and if yes, executing S3-S7; otherwise, returning to execute S1-S2;
s3, processing the signal to be detected into one-dimensional current data;
s4, inquiring the current working state of the inverter, and removing an interference signal matched with the current working state of the inverter from the one-dimensional current data;
s5, extracting characteristic values of the current data after the interference signals are removed, and performing normalization processing on the extracted characteristic data; the photovoltaic direct current arc fault current waveform is characterized by random high-frequency burrs in the time domain, and is characterized by slightly increased spectrum amplitude in a specific frequency band in the frequency domain. When the photovoltaic inverter is subjected to pulse width modulation, high-frequency noise in a similar frequency band is generated, and the amplitude of the high-frequency noise may be the same as or even higher than that of an arc signal. Therefore, it is difficult to distinguish between normal operation and arc faults based on the difference in amplitude, which makes it difficult to perform algorithm analysis after generating a spectrogram by frequency domain transformation using a fast fourier transform method. In the embodiment, the arc data are preprocessed by analyzing the power spectral density of the signal, so that the power spectral density has high sensitivity to the change of the signal and can essentially reflect the objective rule of the change of the signal. Due to system inertia, the noise of the photovoltaic inverter can be regarded as a steady random signal in a short time slot (such as 10ms), however, the direct current arc does not follow the rule, so the normal operation state and the direct current arc fault state of the photovoltaic system can be distinguished according to the stationarity of the signal, and after preprocessing, an algorithm is used for judging whether an arc exists or not, so the power spectral density characteristic information of the current data is analyzed and extracted as the extracted characteristic type in the step S5.
