Abstract

In this paper, a protection scheme for the traction network of the penetrating co-phase traction direct power supply system based on the waveform similarity at both ends of line is proposed. Besides, research on the transmission characteristics of fault current is also carried out. This article, from the perspectives of the reflection and refraction process, attenuation degree, and polarity of fault current, analyzes the correlation and difference of current waveforms at both ends when interior line faults and adjacent line faults emerge. The correlation of waveforms can be proved by cosine similarity after the process of synchronous squeezes wavelet transformation of fault current. The conclusions are as follows: when the interior line faults occur, the sequence, reflection and refraction process, and attenuation degree reaching both ends are roughly the same, the polarity change direction is the same, and the waveform similarity is high; when the adjacent line faults occur, the sequence, reflection and refraction process, and attenuation degree reaching at both ends are greatly different, the polarity change direction is opposite, and the waveform similarity is low. When a protection scheme is based on using cosine similarity, it can quickly and accurately identify internal or external current faults. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can meet the requirements of rapidity, selectivity, and reliability and is not affected by transition resistance and fault inception angles, so it has an application prospect to a certain degree.

1 Introduction

The traction direct power supply system is a unique branch of the power system, but suffers high failure frequency due to its complicated deployment environment, such as bad geographic environment, complex weather conditions, locomotive load, and lightning stroke. At the same time, traction network has high requirements for power supply reliability. For this reason, its relay protection scheme must have specific capabilities to quickly and accurately identify the faults.

Relay protection schemes and fault location methods based on traveling wave and transient signals have achieved great success in the deployment of transmission and distribution lines. , and based on time–frequency correlation of fault waveform characteristics put forward a time–frequency matrix constructed by fault waveform of continuous wavelet transform and S-transform, and by it, they believe that the internal and external faults of transmission line could be distinguished; Wang et al. (2019) and Zhen et al. (2019), with the help of cosine similarity of transient current waveform to construct a flexible DC distribution system, give a scheme for outgoing feeder protection of new energy station. Based on the correlation characteristics of fault waveforms, Li Z. et al. (2018) and ) propose using waveform coefficient to distinguish internal and external faults; Li et al. (2019), based on the waveform similarity of forward and reverse differential currents, state that the fault location information can be accessed by analysis of the Pearson coefficient. In recent years, many researchers in this field have analyzed the propagation characteristics of fault traveling wave in the traction network line and appealed that the research of fault traveling wave and fault located of traction network should be conducted as a whole (Xue et al., 2012; Xiong et al., 2019; ). However, fault traveling wave and fault transient signal have not been widely used in the protection of traction network. As transient protection is of the advantages of stability, reliability, and rapidity, it would be a new attempt to apply it to traction network.

The penetrating co-phase traction direct power supply system and capacitance are paralleled at every outlet of traction substations for filtering, and the paralleled capacitance would create wave impedance discontinuity. The waveform detected at the relay location is the transient signal generated by the fault point, and after repeated folding, reflection, (; ) and refraction, it is superimposed according to a certain time sequence. The traction network and line boundary exert a certain attenuation effect on the fault transient signal, which is why the amplitude of waveform (Shen et al., 2020a; Shen et al., 2020b; Zhang et al., 2021) at both ends of the line is different when the fault location is different. The polarity of the signal detected at both ends of the device is different (; ) when the fault location is different. The cosine similarity is used to represent the difference of waveform at both ends of the line. When the information about the reflection and refraction, arrival time sequence, attenuation degree, polarity, and other relevant factors of waveforms at both ends of the line are roughly the same, the waveform similarity is high, and the cosine similarity is large. Otherwise, the cosine similarity is small. Taking advantage of the (; ) abovementioned characteristics, the pilot protection of traction network in the traction direct power supply system could be constructed on the basis of the similarity of current waveform.

Synchronous squeeze wavelet transform (SWT) compresses the time–frequency map after wavelet transform in the frequency domain direction (; ), and its time–frequency curve is clearer and the decomposition result remains approximately unchanged, which is conducive to solving the mode mixing problem and is more accurate than taking wavelet transform, S-transform, and other methods (; Yu et al., 2017a).

This study studies the unique structure of the traction direct power supply system. Based on the transmission characteristics and attenuation function of transient waveform, it analyzed the similarity of the current waveforms at both ends of the traction network interior line faults and adjacent line faults and proposed a new method of the line protection based on synchronous squeeze wavelet and waveform similarity, whereby the internal and external faults can be quickly and accurately identified. The scheme uses cosine similarity of waveform at both ends of the line to form the protection criterion, making effective use of the waveform characteristics and making the protection more reliable, and is not affected by the transition resistance and the initial angle of the fault. It is the first time this method and the traction system have been combined. With the help of simulation software PSCAD/EMTDC, the model of the penetrating co-phase traction direct power supply system could be constructed for effective algorithm verification.

2 Structure and Boundary of the Penetrating Co-Phase Traction Direct Power Supply System

2.1 Penetrating Co-Phase Traction Direct Power Supply System

The structure of the penetrating co-phase traction direct power supply system is shown in Figure 1. The system is mainly composed of public power grid, traction substation, traction network, and electric locomotive. The three-phase alternating current of the public power grid outputs a single-phase alternating current with equal amplitude and same phase through rectifier operation and inverter operation of traction substation (). Usually, the length of the line between two traction substations is 30–35 km. In this study, 35 km is adopted.

FIGURE 1

2.2 Boundary of Traction Network

Connection method of co-phase traction substation and traction network is shown in Figure 2. The capacitors at the outlet are connected in parallel with the traction network to reduce the harmonic content entering the traction network and improve the power quality of the traction network lines.

FIGURE 2

The capacitance connected in parallel with traction network shows low impedance to high frequency current. Thus, it is of certain boundary characteristics. When the fault current passes through the boundary of the traction network, a part of the fault current flows into the capacitors, which leads to a sharp difference with the fault current detected at the relay location where internal and external fault appears. According to the method from Song et al., 2014, the capacitance at the outlet of traction substation plus-2 meters contact line is set as the line boundary.

According to the composition of traction network boundary of co-phase traction power supply system, the frequency characteristics are analyzed, as shown in Figure 3.

FIGURE 3

It can be seen from Figure 3 that fault signals with different frequencies show unequal passage characteristics after passing through the boundary. When the signal frequency is greater than 600Hz, the amplitude of amplitude–frequency characteristic is far less than 1, which indicates that the boundary has a strong attenuation effect on high frequency signal (Shen et al., 2017; Yang et al., 2018; Song et al., 2020).

3 The Analysis of the Fault Current of the Penetrating Co-Phase Traction Direct Power Supply System

Figure 4 is the typical schematic diagram of the traction network line structure, and is where the traction substation is located, also known as the fault detecting point. In this study, the traction network between is taken as the research object, which is also in the zone. The faults are set in , , and . After the fault occurs in the traction network, the fault transient current signal propagates along the line at the fault point at high speed to both sides, and produces reflection and refraction where the wave impedance is discontinuous. The transient signal detected by the detecting point, , is related to attenuation function, reflection and refraction coefficient and fault location. The positive directions of are shown in Figure 3.

FIGURE 4

3.1 Internal Line Fault

When the fault occurs in (in the zone), the transient current from the fault point flows to both ends of the line, and the traction network has an attenuation effect on the transient signal of the fault. The polarity changes of the transient current detected by the protection devices at both ends of the line are the same, and the transient current only passes through the line, so the attenuation characteristics, reflection process, and transmission sequence are basically consistent, and the waveform shape of the transient current is basically the same. However, when the fault point is relatively far from the midpoint of the line, the waveform shape is different due to the different arrival time sequence of the fault transient current; at the same time, due to the attenuation effect of the traction network on the fault transient signal, the attenuation degree of the transient current with different frequency is different in the transmission process, so the amplitude is different.

When a metallic short-circuit fault occurs, a distance of 15 km form , its mode component is obtained by decoupling and transforming the fault transient current of and , as shown in Figure 5.

FIGURE 5

It can be seen from Figure 5 that the waveform of mode component of fault transient current at both ends of the line is basically the same when the fault occurs in the zone.

3.2 Adjacent Line Fault

In case of fault occurring in (outside the reverse zone) and (outside the forward zone), the transient current will flow through the boundary of the traction network line, and the waveform of the transient current will be reflected, and the high frequency component will be strongly attenuated when passing through the boundary. The polarity change direction of the current waveform detected by the detecting point, , will be opposite; the reflection and refraction process, attenuation degree, and transmission sequence of the transient current waveform will be completely different. Therefore, the waveform of fault transient current will be completely different.

When a metallic short-circuit fault occurs, a distance of 35 km forms the forward zone of , that is , its mode component is obtained by decoupling and transforming the fault transient current of and , as shown in Figure 6A. When a metallic short-circuit fault occurs, a distance of 20 km forms the reverse zone of , that is , its mode component is shown in Figure 6B.

FIGURE 6

It can be seen from Figure 6 that the waveform of mode component of fault transient current at both ends of the line is opposite and in sharp difference when the fault occurs outside the zone.

To sum up, the waveform of fault current is related to transmission characteristics (refraction and reflection process, attenuation degree, arrival time sequence, change direction) and transmission function. When the fault occurs in the zone, the refraction and reflection process and attenuation characteristics of the transient current are basically the same, the polarity change direction is the same, and the transmission sequence is slightly different, all resulting in local differences in waveform. But generally speaking, the fault transient current waveforms detected at both ends of the line are basically similar. When the fault occurs outside the area, the transient current attenuates through the boundary, the frequency components are different, the refraction and reflection process, the transmission sequence are completely different, and the polarity change direction is opposite. The waveform of fault transient current detected at both ends of the line is significantly different.

4 The Pilot Protection Based on Synchronous Squeezed Wavelet and Waveform Similarity

Based on the above analysis, this article puts forward the transmission line protection principle based on the theoretical basis of the change characteristics of current waveform at both ends and the similarity of transient current waveform.

4.1 Similarity Theory

Cosine similarity is widely applied for information retrieval and data mining. In recent years, many scholars have studied, with cosine similarity, the fault line detection, fault location, and line protection (; Wang et al., 2019; ). The cosine value of the angle between two vector inner spaces is used to characterize their similarity, which is known as the follows:

From Eq. 1, it can be concluded that when the direction of two vectors, and are same, cosine similarity is 1; when and are vertical, cosine similarity is 0; when the direction of two vectors, and , are opposite, cosine similarity is -1.

If and are two independent variables, and is sampling point, their cosine similarity can be expressed as follows:

In the formula, represents cosine similarity, and , are the No. element of independent variable, and , respectively.

The value range of is [- 1,1], and the sign indicates the relevant direction. For , the higher the value, higher the similarity of the waveform of the two signals. When , it means that the two signals are completely negatively correlated; when , it means that the two signals are completely positively correlated; when , the two signals are quite different and uncorrelated (; ).

5 Simulation Verification and Analyzing

With the help of simulation software PSCAD/EMTDC, the model of the penetrating co-phase traction direct power supply system can be constructed, as shown in Figure 1.

The line between No.1 and two of traction substation, that is the section of in Figure 4, is taken as the research object. As the traction network schematic diagram shown in Figure 4, the fault of (in the zone), (outside the reverse zone) and, the adjacent line fault (outside the forward zone), are taken into consideration, and the simulation test is carried out, respectively, at different fault locations, different transition resistances, and different fault inception angles. The sampling frequency is set at 50 KHz and the data window, 5 ms.

5.1 The Analysis of Internal and External Faults in Different Locations

In order to simulate and analyze the effectiveness of the protection scheme at different fault locations, assuming metal grounding short-circuit faults occur at (outside the reverse zone), (in the zone), and (outside the forward zone), respectively, with the initial fault angle of . Among them, for , starting from 0km, simulated fault points are set every 5 km away from the positive direction of ; for , the right exit of end is taken as the reference point outside the positive zone, and starting from 0km, simulated fault points are set every 5 km from the positive direction of ; for , the left exit of end is taken as the reference point outside the negative zone, and starting from 0km, simulated fault points are set every 5 km from the negative direction of . After computing the current waveform similarity of at both ends, the results are shown in Table 1.

Cosine similarity at different fault locations.

As shown in Table 1, in case of fault in the zone, the waveform similarity of both sides of the line is close to 1, indicating that the current waveform on both sides of the line is highly correlated; when the fault occurs outside the zone, value of waveform similarity is close to -1, indicating that the current waveform on both sides is negatively correlated. It can be seen from Table 1 that the internal and external faults can be accurately identified by the calculation results of cosine similarity.

5.2 The Identification of Internal and External Faults Under Different Transition Resistances

As simulated analysis of effectiveness of the protection scheme, the transition resistances are , , , and ,respectively, and the initial fault angle is . The setting of fault point is the same as that in Section 5.1. The fault current in and outside the zone is detected, and the mode component after phase-mode transformation is taken for synchronous squeezed wavelet transformation, and the similarity of the reconstructed signal can be calculated. Due to limited space, this article provides only the calculation results of waveform similarity at the beginning, midpoint, and end of outside the reverse zone, in the zone, and outside of forward zone under different transition resistance in Table 2.

Cosine similarity under different transition resistances.

The waveform similarity calculation results of different fault locations under different transition resistances are shown in Figure 8.

FIGURE 8

In Figure 8, the abscissa is the distance from the fault point to the protection device, , and the negative sign indicates the reverse fault; the ordinate is the calculation result of the current waveform similarity of at both ends; the calculation results under different transition resistances are represented by different line types; those parallel to the abscissa are the thresholds set in this article. It can be seen from Table 2 and Figure 8 that under different transition resistances, the similarity of current waveforms at both ends is greater than 0.6 in the case of internal fault, and much less than 0.6 in the case of external fault.

5.3 The Identification of Internal and External Faults at Different Fault Inception Angles

The effectiveness of the protection scheme is analyzed when the fault inception angles are,,, and , respectively, and the transition resistance is . Due to limited space, this article only gives the calculation results of waveform similarity at the beginning, midpoint, and end of outside the reverse zone, in the zone, and outside of forward zone at different fault inception angles, as shown in Table 3.

Cosine similarity under different fault initial angles.

The waveform similarity calculation results of different fault locations at different fault inception angles are shown in Figure 9.

FIGURE 9

It can be seen from Table 3 and Figure 8 that, at different fault inception angles, the similarity of current waveforms at both ends is greater than 0.6 in the case of internal fault, and much less than 0.6 in the case of external fault.

It can be seen from Figures 8, 9 that the similarity value of the fault in the zone is greater than the threshold value, and that of the fault outside the zone is less than the threshold value. When the fault occurs at different initial fault angles, faults can be correctly identified by the protection scheme, which shows that the protection scheme is less affected by the initial fault angle.

From the above simulation results, it can be seen that this protection scheme based on synchronous squeezed wavelet and waveform similarity can accurately identify the internal and external faults when they occur at different fault locations, under different transition resistances, and at different fault initial angles, so as to reliably protect the line.
