A parameter optimization method of multi-layer nested slit resonator for the converter transformer noise in high voltage direct current converter station

Abstract

We propose a parameter optimization method of multi-layer nested slit resonator (MNSR) for the converter transformer noise in a high voltage direct current (HVDC) converter station. With the optimization objective of achieving quasi-perfect sound absorption at the target frequencies and the structural parameters of MNSR as the optimization variables, the optimization model of the structural parameters of MNSR is established and then solved by the sequential quadratic programming algorithm (SQP). The theoretical and simulation results of the four validation cases show that the optimized MNSR can achieve quasi-perfect sound absorption at all target frequencies, which is consistent with the optimization objective. The parameter optimization design method provides an efficient method to design a dual-frequency quasi-perfect sound absorber for the converter transformer noise.
