Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of power equipment state monitoring and fault diagnosis, and particularly relates to an SF6 density relay leakage determination method based on a residual multilayer perception machine, which is suitable for real-time, accurate and automatic identification of the leakage state of SF6 gas in high-voltage electrical equipment. BACKGROUND
[0002] SF6 gas is widely used in high-voltage power equipment such as gas-insulated switchgear and circuit breakers due to its excellent insulation and arc-extinguishing performance. However, SF6 gas leakage may occur due to aging of the seal, vibration or assembly defects during long-term operation of the equipment, which may lead to a decrease in the insulation strength of the equipment and even cause a major safety accident. Therefore, timely and accurate detection and determination of SF6 leakage are of great significance for ensuring the stable operation of the power system, the safety of the equipment and the protection of personnel.
[0003] Currently, SF6 leakage detection methods mainly include optical methods and non-optical methods. Optical methods such as photoacoustic spectroscopy and tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy have high detection accuracy, but the equipment is expensive, has poor environmental adaptability and is difficult to deploy on a large scale. Non-optical methods such as the bandage method, the bubble method and the pressure comparison algorithm have lower costs, but generally have low sensitivity, are easily affected by temperature, cannot identify micro-leakage or can only make relative judgments. In addition, existing detection methods have poor adaptability to different sizes of gas chambers, have obvious "size effect" and are difficult to achieve low-cost and high-precision online leakage monitoring without modifying the structure of the original equipment. Therefore, an intelligent SF6 leakage determination method is needed that can adapt to different gas chamber structures, rely only on basic sensing information, does not require additional expensive detection devices and can run in real time on an embedded or edge side. SUMMARY
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the application is to provide an SF6 leakage state determination method with high detection accuracy, fast response speed, strong environmental adaptability and easy deployment, to overcome the dependence on high-cost sensors, the obvious size effect and the difficulty in balancing accuracy and real-time performance in existing detection technologies.
[0005] To solve the technical problem, the solution of the application is to provide an SF6 density relay leakage determination method based on ResMLP.
[0006] The simulation of the leakage state of the SF6 gas chamber in a variable temperature environment by finite element simulation includes the following steps:
[0007] (1) Based on the multi-physical field coupling finite element simulation method, a flow-solid coupling three-dimensional model of SF6 gas chamber under various leakage states is established; the model comprehensively considers the structure parameters of the gas chamber height, radius, wall thickness, initial SF6 gas pressure, external environment temperature change, and the boundary conditions with different leakage rates set at the top of the gas chamber, and simulates three leakage states of no leakage, slight leakage and severe leakage;
[0008] (2) By changing the values of the above parameters within a reasonable engineering range, a large number of virtual sample data covering various working conditions are generated; the sample data not only includes the structure parameters of the gas chamber, the initial pressure, the environment temperature, but also includes the current time and the last time of the gas chamber external environment temperature and the gas chamber internal average temperature, which together constitute the multi-dimensional input features;
[0009] (3) The pre-processing and standardization of all sample data generated in the above step are carried out: first, the original data is normalized by linear transformation, which maps the data of each feature dimension to the interval [-1, 1] to eliminate the dimensional difference and the order of magnitude, accelerate the convergence of the subsequent training process of the model and improve the numerical stability;
[0010] (4) After normalization, the data is explicitly divided into input feature set and output label set, and the output label is encoded as an integer corresponding to "no leakage", "slight leakage" and "severe leakage".
[0011] The application further provides a ResMLP classification model constructed with residual connection as the core, including the following steps:
[0012] (1) The pre-processed sample set is trained on the model; the input matrix where h is the height of the gas chamber, r is the radius of the gas chamber, P is the initial pressure of the gas chamber, is the wall thickness of the gas chamber, T0 is the temperature at the last time, T1 is the temperature at this time, T t0 is the average temperature of the gas chamber at the last time, T t1 is the average temperature of the gas chamber at this time, and the output matrix Y={0, 1, 2} represents different leakage degrees;
[0013] (2) Before training, the grid search strategy is adopted and combined with the ten-fold cross-validation method to systematically optimize and automatically optimize the key hyperparameters of network depth, number of neurons in each layer, activation function type, learning rate, batch size and dropout rate, so as to determine the best model configuration;
[0014] (3) After the model training is completed, the accuracy, area under the curve and single calculation time are used to comprehensively evaluate and verify the performance of the model on the independent test set;
[0015] (4) After verification, the trained ResMLP classification model is deployed on an edge computing device or a cloud server; in actual application, the system receives the SF6 gas chamber structure parameters, internal pressure, environmental temperature and historical temperature data measured by the on-site sensor in real time, inputs them into the deployed model, and outputs the classification determination result of the current gas chamber leakage state online, automatically and quickly, thereby realizing low-cost and high-precision SF6 leakage intelligent monitoring.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the present application are: the high-precision finite element simulation generates samples covering multiple working conditions, overcoming the problems of high cost and few samples of real leakage experiments; the ResMLP residual structure is used to enhance the training stability and feature extraction capability of the deep network, significantly improving the classification accuracy under small sample and unbalanced data; only relying on the original gas chamber structure parameters and temperature sensor, without adding expensive special sensors, the system transformation cost and complexity are greatly reduced; the model has high lightweight degree, supports real-time operation on the edge side, and meets the dual requirements of response speed and accuracy in engineering applications.
