大型发电机定子接地故障点降压消弧机理与控制方法研究

Neutral ineffectively grounding is commonly adopted in large generators. The fault features are weak for generator stator single-phase grounding fault. The grounding fault accurate detection and reliable arc extinguishing is hard to realize. Therefore, proceed from the fault arcing mechanism, the fault arc was equivalent to a series connection of “arc breakdown voltage gap” and “arc variable resistance”. The new idea of voltage arc extinguishing was proposed which is controlling fault location voltage below the arc breakdown voltage. In this project, the breakdown voltage characteristics and variable resistance characteristics of stator fault arc will be studied, and the arcing mechanism of stator grounding fault will be revealed; then, the stator voltage to ground flexible regulation basic theory will be established, which is connecting controllable voltage source to neutral point to control generator zero sequence voltage, and the fault location voltage flexible regulation is realized; when stator high resistance grounding fault occurs, by controlling fault location voltage amplitude and phase, the fault features can be increased and the sensitivity of fault detection can be improved; during the short-term operation with stator grounding fault, by actively reducing fault location voltage below arc breakdown voltage, the grounding fault current can be eliminated; finally, a prototype of generator voltage reduced arc extinguishing will be developed. This method take advantage of two characteristics and superiority of large generator: generator step-up transformer is delta connection, the short-term regulation of zero-sequence voltage does not affect generator normal operation; the generator zero-sequence impedance is large, voltage source capacity for zero-sequence voltage regulation is small and can be implemented conveniently. This project will realize the sensitive detection and stator grounding fault elimination without power outage.
