Book Detection and Pattern Recognition of Partial Discharge in Electric Machine Coils with Pulsed Voltage Excitation

Download or read book Detection and Pattern Recognition of Partial Discharge in Electric Machine Coils with Pulsed Voltage Excitation written by Han Xiong and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 80 years, partial discharges (PDs) have been monitored in traditional 50-/60-Hz medium- to high-voltage electric machines to detect and determine various types of defects in the insulation system. The PD pattern and changing trend revealed by the continuous monitoring have also been used as an indicator of insulation health condition. With the development of modern power electronics, an increasing amount of medium- to high-voltage electric machines are now driven by variable speed drives (VSDs) for higher efficiency and better control capability. The voltage excitation, instead of the traditional low-frequency sinusoidal voltage, becomes high-frequency pulsed voltages, or pulse-width-modulated (PWM) voltages. The short rise and fall times of the PWM voltages, or often referred to as the fast dV/dt, subject the insulation system to more severe electrical stresses. A prominent example is the reflected wave phenomenon when the reflected voltage at the machine terminals can reach up to twice the DC bus voltage, or even up to four times in extreme cases. Such overvoltages have been reported to cause premature winding insulation breakdown. The insulation condition monitoring using effective PD detection becomes vital in such applications using VSDs. The fast dV/dt, nevertheless, causes significant switching noise in the traditional electrical PD detectors such as the coupling capacitors, crippling their capabilities to effectively detect PD, especially for medium- to high-voltage machines. Even if PDs can be successfully measured, the traditional PD pattern recognition techniques for electric machines, such as phase-resolved analysis, are no longer applicable because such techniques focus on the phase information of the PD occurrence with respect to the AC voltage. For pulsed voltages, the voltage switching plays a far more significant role than the phase of the reference voltage. This work strives to tackle the challenges in the detection and pattern recognition of PDs in electric machine insulation systems with pulsed voltage excitations. First a PD detection platform has been established to effectively detect and quantify PD events with pulsed voltage excitations. This platform employs nine sensors catering to five different PD physical manifestations, including electrical current, electromagnetic wave, optical light emission, acoustic ultrasound emission, and chemical ozone emission. PDs have been successfully and accurately measured for three types of samples: twisted pairs made of magnet wires, hand-wound stator coils, and professionally fabricated medium-voltage form-wound coils. Further a PD data processing procedure dedicated for data collected under pulsed voltages has been matured. Various machine learning algorithms and signal processing techniques are employed to implement feature extraction and pattern recognition from the collected PD data. The pattern unveiled facilitates the classification of PD pulses from different sources and locations. Moreover, the PD characteristics and patterns are investigated with pulsed voltage excitations of different parameters such as dV/dt. The effects of pulsed voltages, when compared with power-line-frequency AC voltage excitation, are hence demonstrated. Preliminary lifetime tests are performed on the twisted pair samples. The impact of recurring PDs on the lifetime of the low-voltage electric machine insulation system is further discussed in this dissertation.

Book Partial Discharge Classification Using Acoustic Signals and Artificial Neural Networks and Its Application in Detection of Defects in Ceramic Insulators

Download or read book Partial Discharge Classification Using Acoustic Signals and Artificial Neural Networks and Its Application in Detection of Defects in Ceramic Insulators written by Satish Kumar Polisetty and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Online condition monitoring of critical assets constitutes one method whereby the electrical insulation industry can help safeguard grids through the avoidance of system outages due to insulation failure. This thesis introduces a novel approach for monitoring the condition of outdoor ceramic insulators based on partial discharge (PD) measurements. The presence of physical defects such as punctures, broken porcelain, and cracks will ultimately lead to the initiation of PD activity in outdoor ceramic insulators. In addition to defects, surface discharges such as that caused by corona and dry band arcing are also very common, particularly in wet and polluted outdoor insulators. Such a discharge activity that originates in these kinds of conditions can cause flashover or insulator failure, resulting in power outages. Measuring early-stage discharge activity is thus very important as a means of avoiding catastrophic situations in power networks. The work presented in this thesis involved initial tests conducted to distinguish between different types of controlled discharges generated in the laboratory. The next step was the implementation of an artificial neural network (ANN) for classifying the type of discharge based on selected features extracted from the measured acoustic signals. First, relatively high-frequency acoustic signals are transformed into low-frequency signals using an envelope detection algorithm imbedded in the commercial acoustic sensor. A fast Fourier transform (FFT) is then applied to each low-frequency signal, and finally, 60 Hz, 120 Hz, and 180 Hz are used as input feature vectors for the developed ANN. This initial research was then extended to include testing of the proposed diagnostic tool on a practical insulation system, and outdoor ceramic insulators were selected for this purpose. Three types of defects were tested under laboratory conditions: a cracked ceramic insulator, a healthy insulator contaminated by wetting with salt water, and a corona generated from a thin wire wound to the ceramic insulator. Both a single disc, and three discs connected in an insulator string were tested with respect to these defects. For both controlled samples and full insulators, a recognition rate of more than 85 % was achieved.
