DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0065] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the following text clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are some rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0066] An embodiment provides a fire extinguishing system for a UHV converter station.
[0067] As shown in
[0068] In the UHV converter station, the second fire pipe 501 is disposed above each converter transformer 1, and the first fire pipe 401 is disposed around each converter transformer 1. One fire monitor 502 is disposed right above each firewall 2 on both sides of each converter transformer 1 in the UHV converter station, and each fire monitor 502 is connected to one second fire pipe 501. The spray pipe 402 is disposed on each firewall 2 on both sides of each converter transformer 1, and each spray pipe 402 is connected to one first fire pipe 401. The fire monitor 502 and an outlet of the spray pipe 402 corresponding to each converter transformer 1 face the converter transformer 1. The control module 8 is connected to the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 by using a first local control cabinet 9, and the control module 8 is connected to the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 by using a second local control cabinet 10. An outlet of the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 is connected to inlets of all the first fire pipes 401 and inlets of all the second fire pipes 501, and an outlet of the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is connected to the inlets of all the first fire pipes 401 and the inlets of all the second fire pipes 501. The first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 is capable of providing foam for the first fire pipe 401 and second fire pipe 501 simultaneously or separately, and the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is also capable of providing foam for the first fire pipe 401 and second fire pipe 501 simultaneously or separately. However, in practical application, due to a flow of CAF, generally, the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 provides foam for the adjacent first fire pipe 401, and the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 provides foam for the second fire pipe 501; or the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 provides foam for the adjacent first fire pipe 401, and the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 provides foam for the second fire pipe 501.
[0069] An end, close to the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 and the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6, of each single-valve bank converter transformer 100 is provided with a first zone selector valve 11 and a second zone selector valve 12, and each first fire pipe 401 is connected to the first zone selector valve 11 of the corresponding single-valve bank converter transformer 100. The fire monitor 502 is disposed on an overhanging eave of each valve hall 3 and faces the firewall 2, and each fire monitor 502 is connected to one second zone selector valve 12 by using the second fire pipe 501. Each first zone selector valve 11 and each second zone selector valve 12 are successively connected to the outlet of the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 by using a selector valve 13 of a main foam supply pipe and a first foam supply pipe 14. Each first zone selector valve 11 and each second zone selector valve 12 are successively connected to the outlet of the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 by using the selector valve 13 of the main foam supply pipe and a second foam supply pipe 15. An outlet of the first fire pipe 401 is connected to the spray pipe 402 to realize spray fire extinguishing, and an outlet of the second fire pipe 501 is connected to the fire monitor 502 to realize fire extinguishing by using the fire monitor 502. The fire pipe of the spray fire extinguishing system 4 is disposed around each converter transformer 1 to perform fire extinguishing around each converter transformer 1. The fire pipe of the fire monitor-based fire extinguishing system 5 is disposed above each converter transformer 1 to emit a fire extinguishing medium from above each converter transformer 1 for fire suppression and extinguishing. The two fire extinguishing systems realize whole-region complete coverage of the converter transformer 1, and completely cover all fire characteristics and behaviors around and above the UHV converter transformer 1. In addition, the two fire extinguishing medium generation subsystems are mutually standby. When one fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem is damaged, the other fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem can continue to provide the fire extinguishing medium, thereby achieving high system reliability.
[0070] This embodiment adopts a layout strategy in which the CAF spray fire extinguishing system 4 is disposed at the near end and low end, namely, a horizontal pipe of the spray pipe 402 is connected to the first fire pipe 401 on a lateral side of the firewall 2 and provided with a plurality of outlets, and the CAF fire monitor-based fire extinguishing system 5 is disposed at the far end and high end, namely, the fire monitor 502 is disposed on the overhanging eave of each valve hall 3 and faces the firewall 2, to realize comprehensive three-dimensional fire extinguishing. In addition, the fire monitor 502 is located at the high end and is not easy to explode. Although the spray pipe 402 is located at the low end, it has anti-explosion performance that will be described in detail below. This greatly reduces a risk of a fatal damage to all fire extinguishing systems in the region of the converter transformer 1 due to high-energy explosive impact of a fire.
[0071] As shown in
[0072] A noise reduction plate (not shown in the figure) is disposed around the converter transformer 1. The noise reduction plate and the converter transformer 1 are located between two firewalls 2 as a whole. The bushing 16 and the bushing lifting seat pass through the noise reduction plate, and are located right above the middle part of the converter transformer 1. The first fire pipe 401 on the firewall 2 passes through the noise reduction plate to be connected to the horizontal pipe, the plurality of outlets of the horizontal pipe face the converter transformer 1, and the vertical pipe passes through the noise reduction plate and is parallel to the bushing 16 and the bushing lifting seat. The noise reduction plate can effectively eliminate noise of the converter transformer 1.
[0073] A working process of Embodiment 1 all described above of the present disclosure is as follows: As shown in
[0074] The following describes a detailed fire extinguishing process by using a fire of the high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole as an example. Certainly, a processing method for a fire of another pole is similar.
[0075] When the high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole are on fire, because the high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole are disposed in the square of the first pole, the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 is also disposed in the square of the first pole, and the first zone selector valve 11 and the second zone selector valve 12 each are connected to the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 by using the pipes, startup of the first zone selector valve 11 and the second zone selector valve 12 is controlled to select the CAF spray fire extinguishing system 4 or the CAF fire monitor-based fire extinguishing system 5 to extinguish the fire. Because spray fire extinguishing has a quicker response and wider coverage than fire extinguishing by using the fire monitor, spray fire extinguishing is preferentially performed for the purpose of extinguishing the fire as soon as possible. In addition, a fire extinguishing medium generation system with a short pipe path is selected to save more time. Therefore, the control module opens, by using the first local control cabinet 9, the first zone selector valve 11 connected to the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 closest to the valve banks on fire, and automatically starts the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6. The first fire-fighting medium generation subsystem 6 provides foam for the first fire pipe 401, and the first fire pipe 401 connected to the first zone selector valve 11 emits foam by using the spray pipe 402, to realize spray fire extinguishing for the high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole. The high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole are the high-end valve bank of the first pole and the low-end valve bank of the first pole.
[0076] The second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is located in the square of the second pole, and is far away from the high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole, and the fire monitor 502 makes a response more slowly than the spray pipe 402. Therefore, the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 can be used to provide foam for the fire monitor 502 for fire extinguishing by using the fire monitor 502. The control module 8 opens, by using the second local control cabinet 10, the second zone selector valve 12 connected to the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7, and automatically starts the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7, and the second fire pipe 501 connected to the second zone selector valve 12 emits foam by using the fire monitor 502, to realize fire extinguishing for the high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole by using the fire monitor 502.
[0077] Likewise, when the high-end and low-end valve banks of the first pole are not on fire, but the high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole are on fire, because the high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole are disposed in the square of the second pole, the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is also disposed in the square of the second pole, and the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is close to the high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole, the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is used to provide foam for the first fire pipe 401, to reduce fire extinguishing time by using a shortest pipe path and a fastest response mode. In this case, the control module opens, by using the first local control cabinet 9, the first zone selector valve 11 connected to the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 closest to the high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole on fire, and automatically starts the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7, and the first fire pipe 401 connected to the first zone selector valve 11 emits foam by using the spray pipe 402, to realize spray fire extinguishing for the high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole. The high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole are the high-end valve bank of the second pole and the low-end valve bank of the second pole.
[0078] When the high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole are on fire, the control module opens, by using the second local control cabinet 10, the second zone selector valve 12 connected to the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7, and automatically starts the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7, and the second fire pipe 501 connected to the second zone selector valve 12 emits foam by using the fire monitor 502, to realize fire extinguishing for the high-end and low-end valve banks of the second pole by using the fire monitor 502.
[0079] It should be noted that, in an initial state, a valve between the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 and the first fire pipe 401 of the first pole close to the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 is normally closed, and a valve between the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 and the second fire pipe 501 of the first pole far away from the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is normally closed; a valve between the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 and the first fire pipe 401 of the second pole close to the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 is normally closed, and a valve between the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 and the second fire pipe 501 of the second pole far away from the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 is normally closed; and the zone selector valves and the fire extinguishing medium generation subsystems can be started manually started locally or remotely.
[0080] To sum up, in the fire extinguishing process, the two fire extinguishing systems are started at the same time. The two fire extinguishing medium generation subsystems are disposed near two UHV converter station squares respectively, which are far apart. When a converter transformer 1 is on fire, response time of the two subsystems is different. To achieve an optimal fire extinguishing effect, when a converter transformer 1 in the single-valve bank converter transformer 100 is on fire, CAF generated by one CAF generation subsystem closest to the converter transformer 1 on fire is preferentially provided for the first fire pipe 401 around the converter transformer 1 by opening or closing the zone selector valve in a control vale room, such that the horizontal pipe of the spray pipe 402 releases the CAF to cover the entire region of the converter transformer 1, and the vertical pipe of the spray pipe 402 enhances coverage of a region of the bushing 16. In addition, the other CAF generation subsystem far away from the converter transformer 1 on fire provides CAF for the fire monitor 502 on the overhanging eave of the valve hall 3 by using a zone selector valve room, to realize fire suppression and extinguishing for key fire regions of the converter transformer 1.
[0081] As shown in
[0082] A fire extinguishing principle is set, such that the spray pipe 402 located at the low end is used to perform whole-region spray fire extinguishing for the converter transformer 1, the fire monitor 502 located at the high end is used to realize fire suppression and extinguishing for the key parts, and the control module 8 can perform control to preferentially perform fire extinguishing around the converter transformer 1 located at the low end, so as to realize point and plane-combined fire extinguishing. This can improve fire extinguishing efficiency and achieve high fire extinguishing reliability.
[0083] To further improve the fire extinguishing effect, for example, when there is a fire spot at the high end of the converter transformer 1, but the spray pipe 402 at the low end cannot spray foam onto the high fire spot, after a preset time interval, the control module 8 controls the fire extinguishing medium, output by the normal fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem, to be further transmitted to the second fire pipe 501. The outlet of the second fire 501 pipe is located at the high end above the converter transformer 1, and the fire extinguishing medium is emitted from the outlet of the second fire pipe 501 for fire suppression and extinguishing. The control module 8 can also control the normal fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem to simultaneously output the foam to the first fire pipe 401 and the second fire pipe 501. However, the second fire pipe 501 is connected to the fire monitor 502 and its response time is generally 5 min, and the first fire pipe 401 is connected to the spray pipe 402 and its response time is generally 90 s. Therefore, there is a delay for the two terminal release apparatuses. If the foam is provided for the first fire pipe 401 and the second fire pipe 501 at the same time, there is no sufficient foam for the first fire pipe 401 for spraying, prolonging response time of fire extinguishing. In addition, even if foam is provided for the first fire pipe 401 and the second fire pipe 501 at the same time, due to limited response time of the fire monitor 502, there will be foam but foam emitting time is not reached. In this period of time, it is a waste of resources and time to provide foam for the fire monitor 502. Therefore, sufficient foam is preferentially provided for the spray pipe 402 at the low end, and this can reduce fire suppression time and cover a fire coverage to a maximum extent. After the spray pipe 402 sprays for several minutes, whole-region fire extinguishing has been performed for the fire region for several minutes. At this time, the response time of the fire monitor 502 is reached, and the fire monitor 502 is provided with foam to further suppress the fire, so as to achieve the optimal fire extinguishing effect.
[0084] To verify that the fire extinguishing system and the fire extinguishing method in the present disclosure are for a fire of the UHV converter transformer, a fire test is carried out for a physical full-scale 1:1 UHV converter transformer. Area of a three-dimensional overflow fire surface is more than 100m.sup.2. First, oil temperature of the transformer is heated to about 150° C., and the oil is ignited. After full combustion, the CAF fire extinguishing system is started. The spray fire extinguishing system 4 and the fire monitor-based fire extinguishing system 5 are tested independently. A test result of the spray fire extinguishing system 4 is shown in

[0085] According to the above technical solutions, in the fire extinguishing system for a UHV converter station in Embodiment 1, the fire pipe of one fire extinguishing system is disposed around each converter transformer 1 to perform fire extinguishing around each converter transformer 1. The fire pipe of the other fire extinguishing system is disposed above each converter transformer 1 to emit the fire extinguishing medium from above each converter transformer 1 for fire suppression and extinguishing. The two fire extinguishing systems realize whole-region complete coverage of the converter transformer 1, and completely cover all fire characteristics and behaviors around and above the UHV converter transformer 1. In addition, the two fire extinguishing medium generation subsystems are mutually standby. When one fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem is damaged, the other fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem can continue to provide the fire extinguishing medium, thereby achieving high system reliability. In addition, the medium generation subsystems in this embodiment are disposed at the far end. The fire extinguishing media output by the first extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 and the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 are CAF, and there is no need to deploy the pressure sprayer to convert the media into foam. Therefore, even if the spray pipe is blown down, the fire extinguishing systems still work normally. The CAF generated by the first fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 6 and the second fire extinguishing medium generation subsystem 7 continues to be sprayed onto the fire site through the outlet of the pipe to perform fire extinguishing continuously.
