BASIC THEORY OF OPERATION ENERGY MEASURE THEORY In energy measure, the power information varying with time is calculated by a direct multiplication of the voltage signal and the current signal. Assume that the current signal and the voltage signal are cosine functions; Umax, Imax are the peak values of the voltage signal and the current signal; w is the angle frequency of the input signals; the phase difference between the current signal and the voltage signal is expressed as . Then the power is given as follows: p(t ) U max cos(wt ) I max cos(wt ) http://www.belling.com.cn -6Total 14 Pages 9/18/2014 BL6513 Three-phase Active Energy Meter If 0 : p(t ) U max I max [1 cos(2wt )] 2 If 0 : p (t ) U max cos(t ) I max cos(t ) U max cos(t ) I max cos(t ) cos( ) I max sin(t ) sin( ) U max I max [1 cos(2t )] cos( ) U max I max cos(t ) sin(t ) sin( ) 2 U I U I max max [1 cos(2t )] cos( ) max max sin( 2t ) sin( ) 2 2 U I U I max max cos( ) max max cos(2t ) cos( ) sin( 2t ) sin( ) 2 2 U I U I max max cos( ) max max cos(2t ) 2 2 p(t ) is called as the instantaneous power signal. The ideal p(t ) consists of the dc component and ac component whose frequency is 2w . The dc component is called as the average active power, that is: P U max I max cos( ) 2 The average active power is related to the cosine value of the phase difference between the voltage signal and the current signal. This cosine value is called as Power Factor (PF) of the two channel signals. Fig.4 The Effect of phase When the phase difference between the voltage signal and the current signal is more than 90°, the average active power is negative. This case indicates the user is using the electrical energy reversely. The main function of the three phase measurement IC is calculating the sum of the three phase active power (the arithmetic sum or the absolute value sum), and supplying the frequency signals http://www.belling.com.cn -79/18/2014 Total 14 Pages BL6513 Three-phase Active Energy Meter proportional to the active powers. If the BL6513 is configured to execute the arithmetic sum of the three active powers, the sum of the three-phase power is calculated as follows: PTOTAL PA PB PC When one phase power of three phases is negative, it’s value will counteract the other positive terms. If the BL6513 is configured to execute the absolute value sum of the three active powers, the sum of the three-phase power is calculated as follows: PTOTAL PA PB PC THE OPRATION PROCESS OF THREE PHASE ENERGY MEASURE SIGNAL Fig.5 Signal Processing Block Diagram In BL6513, the six voltage signals from the current and voltage transducers are digitized with ADCs. The instantaneous power signal P(t) is generated by a direct multiplication of the current and voltage signals of each phase. In order to extract the real power component (i.e., the dc component), the instantaneous power signal is low-pass filtered on each phase. Then, The total real power information is then obtained by adding the individual phase real power (the arithmetic sum or the absolute value sum). http://www.belling.com.cn -8Total 14 Pages 9/18/2014 BL6513 Three-phase Active Energy Meter The output of three-phase power sum is sent to the digital-frequency module. In this module, the total real power is accumulated during the given time, and converted to the periodic frequency output which is therefore proportional to the average real power. Because of its high output frequency and therefore, shorter integration time, the CF output is proportional to the instantaneous real power. This pulse is useful for system calibration purposed that would take place under steady load conditions. By dividing the high output CF, F1 and F2 can be obtained. The outputs F1 and F2 operate at a much lower frequency, which can drive the 2-phase stepper motors by eight kinds modes. The output pulse is given to the counter motor out of the chip, and then the counter value proportional to the consumed energy is obtained. Offset Effect The dc offsets come from the input signals and the forepart analog circuitry. Assume that the input dc offsets on the voltage channel and the current channel are U offset and I offset , and PF equals 1 ( 0 ). p(t ) [U cos(t ) U offset ] [ I cos(t ) I offset ] UI UI I offsetU cos(t ) U offset I cos(t ) cos(2t ) 2 2 Fig.6 Effect of different offset cancellation methods As can be seen, for each phase input, if there are simultaneous dc offsets on the voltage channel and the current channel, these offsets contribute a dc component for the result of multiplication. That is, the offsets bring the error of U offset I offset to the final average real power. Additionally, there exists the component of U offset I I offset U at the frequency of w . The dc error on the real power will result in measure error, and the component brought to the frequency of w will also affect the output of the average active power when the next low-pass filter can’t restrain the http://www.belling.com.cn -9Total 14 Pages 9/18/2014 Three-phase Active Energy Meter BL6513 ac component very completely. When the offset on the one of the voltage and the current channels is filtered, for instance, the offset on the current channel is removed; the result of multiplication is improved greatly. There is no dc error, and the additional component at the frequency of w is also decreased. When the offsets on the voltage channel and the current channel are filtered respectively by two high-pass filters, the component at the frequency of w (50Hz) is subdued, and the stability of the output signal is advanced. Moreover, in this case, the phases of the voltage channel and the current channel can be matched completely, and the performance when PF equal 0.5C or 0.5L is improved. In BL6513, this structure is selected. Though it is given in the system specification that the ripple of the output signal is less than 0.1%, in real measure of BL6513, the calibration output is very stable, and the ripple of the typical output signal is less than 0.05%. Additionally, this structure can ensure the frequency characteristic. When the input signal changes from 45Hz to 65Hz, the complete machine error due to the frequency change is less than 0.1%. In such, the meter designed for the 50Hz input signal can be used on the transmission-line system of electric power whose frequency is 60Hz. Current Channels The voltage outputs from the current transducers are connected to the BL6513 current channels, which are fully differential voltage inputs. IAP, BP, and ICP are the positive input for IAN, IBN, and ICN, respectively. The maximum peak differential signal on the current channel should be less than 500mV ( 353mV rms for a pure sinusoidal signal) for the specified operation. Fig.7 shows a typical connection diagram for the one current channel (IA). RF CT IAP CF ±500mV Rb RF IP AGND IAN + - CF PHASE NEUTRAL AGND AGND Fig.7 Typical Connection for Current Channels Voltage Channels The output of the line voltage transducer is connected to the BL6513 at this analog input. Voltage channels are a pseudo-differential voltage input. VAP, VBP, and VCP are the positive inputs with respect to VN. The maximum peak differential signal on the voltage channel is 500mV ( 353mV rms for a pure sinusoidal signal) for the specified operation. http://www.belling.com.cn - 10 Total 14 Pages 9/18/2014 Three-phase Active Energy Meter BL6513 RF PT VAP CF ±500mV RF AGND VN + - CF PHASE NEUTRAL AGND AGND CF Ra Rb AGND Rv AGND ±500mV VAP PHASE NEUTRAL RF AGND VN Ra >> RF Rb+Rv=RF + - CF AGND AGND Fig.8 Typical Connections for Voltage Channels Notes: Because of the various external devices, the current channel and the voltage channel may have the phase match error (mainly due to different RC constant and different phase delay). By adjusting the external capacitor Cf, the phase error can be corrected. The phase error will affect the system gain when PF is 0.5, and bring error. The process of BL6513 can ensure the consistent compensatory value. Power Supply Monitor The BL6513 contains an on-chip power supply monitor. If the supply is less than 4V 5% then the BL6513 will go in an inactive state, i.e. no energy will be accumulated when the supply voltage is below 4V. This is useful to ensure correct device operation at power up and during power down. The power supply monitor has built-in hysteresis and filtering. This gives a high degree of immunity to false triggering due to noisy supplies. The trigger level is nominally set at 4V, and the tolerance on this trigger level is about 5% . The power supply and decoupling for the part should be such that the ripple at VDD does not exceed 5V 5% as specified for normal operation. Digital-To-Frequency Conversion After multiplication，the low-pass filter is used to attenuate the ac components at the line frequency and its harmonics. Then the three phase real powers are sent to the adder, and the arithmetic sum or the absolute value sum (selectable by the pin ADDSEL) can be obtained. The power sum is passed to the digital-to-frequency converter. In the digital-to-frequency, the power signal is integrated over time to produce an output frequency. This accumulation of the signal will suppress any non-dc component in the instantaneous real power signal. Because the average value of a sinusoidal signal is zero, the frequency generated by the digital-to-frequency is proportional http://www.belling.com.cn - 11 Total 14 Pages 9/18/2014 BL6513 Three-phase Active Energy Meter to the average real power. Figure 9 shows the calculating process of the output CF: Fig.9 Real Power-to-Frequency Conversion As can be seen in the diagram, the output frequency CF is generated by accumulating the instantaneous real power signal over a much shorter time, while converting it to a frequency. Due to the short accumulating time, there are still ripple in the CF. This will not be a problem in the application. Where CF is used for calibration purposes, the frequency should be averaged by the frequency counter. This will remove any ripple. After the output frequency CF, by other digital-to-frequency converter, the lower output frequency F1 and F2 are obtained. Because the outputs F1 and F2 operate at a much lower frequency, much more averaging of the instantaneous real power signal is carried out. Thus the stability of the output frequency is ensured. Mode Selection of the Sum of the Three Active Energies The BL6513 can be set to execute the arithmetic sum of the three active energies, Wh WhA WhB WhC Or the sum of the absolute value of these energies, Wh WhA WhB WhC . The selection between the two modes can be made by setting the ADDSEL pin. Logic high and logic low applied on the ADDSEL pin correspond to the arithmetic sum and the sum of absolute values, respectively. Anti-Creep Threshold In BL6513, when the rms of current and the rms of voltage are 500mV, the anti-creep threshold is set as the 0.0020 percent of full-scale power. There are anti-creep logics in three phase circuits. http://www.belling.com.cn - 12 Total 14 Pages 9/18/2014 Three-phase Active Energy Meter BL6513 OPERATION MODE FORMULA of OPERATION In the BL6513, the output frequency or pulse rate is related to the input voltage signals by the following equation: Freq 12.64 U AP I A U BP I B U CP I C F15 2 VREF Freq = Output frequency on F1 and F2 (Hz) UAP, UBP, UCP = Differential rms voltage signal on voltage channels (volts) IA, IB, and IC = Differential rms voltage signal on current channels (volts) Vref = The reference voltage (2.42 V ± 8%) (volts) F1-5 = One of five possible frequencies selected by using the logic inputs SCF, S0, and S1.
