As a natural insulating gas, air is widely used in power equipment (switchgear, ring cabinets, etc.). It will produce characteristic decomposition products represented by NO2 when the power equipment occurs internal faults. The content of composition reflects the severity of the discharge fault. Therefore, the detection of gas decomposition products is helpful to the stable operation of power equipment. The cross-sensitivity of the sensor materials towards NO2 and CO have seriously restricted the accuracy of fault diagnosis. To address these issues, this paper develops a miniature gas-sensing array with high sensitivity and great reliability, which aimed for the discharge fault diagnosis of air-insulated equipment.
This paper has simulated 15 air discharge faults including corona discharge, spark discharge, and arc discharge at different voltage levels and durations. After that, Fourier infrared tests were performed on the 15 gas samples. However, there has no apparent absorption peak of CO and O3 in the infrared absorption spectrum. The absorption peak in 1 650~1 550 cm-1 band corresponds to the antisymmetric stretching vibration of O=N=O chemical bond. This indicates the presence of NO2 in the decomposition products of air. Besides, discharge with different voltages and times shows significant differences in the content of NO2.
To discriminate fault characteristic gases, this paper has integrated a micro sensor array loaded with four gas-sensitive nanomaterials (10%WO3-10%SnCl2-In2O3, 5%NiO-10%SnCl2-In2O3, 10%TiO2-10%SnCl2-In2O3 and 5%SnO2-10%SnCl2- In2O3). Then the paper obtains the repeatable gas response recovery curves under different discharge faults, which lays the foundation for the construction of gas identification model. The results demonstrate that the higher voltage and the longer discharge time means the larger response value of sensor array. Accordingly, it is further proved that the higher air-discharge voltages and times generates more characteristic decomposition gas. In addition, t-SNE dimensionality reduction has been employed to explore the identification ability of miniature gas-sensing array. The identification results of different air discharge faults are 84.88%, 81.82%, 76.86%, and 81.32% by four machine learning algorithms (Extra Tree, Decision Tree, KNN, and RF) respectively. And the recognition ability of the micro gas sensing array for partial discharge and arc discharge is slightly higher than that of spark discharge. The essential reason can be ascribed to the saturation of NO2 in the process of multiple spark discharges.
The following conclusions can be drawn from the simulation analysis: (1) The FTIR of air discharge products shows that the arc discharge (200~400 μL/L) produces more NO2 than corona and spark discharge (10~50 μL/L). Besides, the NO2 concentration increases with the increase of discharge voltage and discharge time (times). (2) Compared with corona and spark discharge, the response value of the micro sensor array towards arc discharge products (6 kV, 4 033%) is nearly 3 times higher than that of spark discharge (15 kV, 5 times, 1 142.8%). (3) After the feature reduction of 10-dimensional PCA, we compared four machine learning algorithms, and found that the Extra Tree algorithm obtained the best identification accuracy of air discharge fault (84.88%).
