Abstract
The present invention discloses a DC converter valve state detection method based on temporal features of converter terminal currents, including the following steps: collecting three-phase AC currents on a converter valve-side of a DC transmission system; defining a current when the currents of two commutating valves are equal as a base value, greater than the base value as a valve conducting current, and less than the base value as a valve blocking current; constructing a valve conducting state by a relative relationship among amplitudes of the three-phase AC currents, and calculating a time interval of each valve conducting state; comparing time intervals of 6 valve conducting states with a time interval of a valve conducting state in normal operation, and determining whether the 6 valve states are normal according to the result of comparison and locating all abnormal valves. The present invention can reliably detect valve states and locate abnormal valves through sequence detection. This method can be applied to actual fault phase judgment and commutation failure judgment, providing a good support for accurate judgment of DC control and protection.
