A fault detection method and apparatus (300), a storage medium, and an electronic device, relating to the field of positive-pressure dense phase pneumatic conveying. The method comprises: determining operating state information of a positive-pressure dense-phase pneumatic conveying
system (200), wherein the operating state information comprises at least one of the total quantity of ash residues generated by
coal combustion in a power
plant, the equivalent length of a conveying
pipe segment, the design conveying capacity, the ash-air ratio, the
mass flow rate of conveying air, the volume flow rate of the conveying air in a
standard state, the air-ash mixture temperature at a starting section of a conveying
pipe, the conveying speed in a pneumatic ash conveying
pipe, the
diameter of the pneumatic ash conveying pipe, the pressure loss, the volume of an
airlock valve, the volume of a bin pump, the free air flow rate of an
air compressor, the standard volume flow rate of the
air compressor, the total air consumption of an
air compressor system, the
compressed air flow velocity, the inner
diameter of a
compressed air pipe, and the pressure loss of the
compressed air pipe; and on the basis of the operating state information, determining a fault area of the positive-pressure dense-phase pneumatic conveying
system (200). The method can improve fault detection efficiency of the positive-pressure dense-phase pneumatic conveying system (200).
