Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of thermal monitoring and measurement technology, specifically to a dynamic monitoring and measurement system for thermal temperature in complex environments that integrates digital twin technology. Background Technology

[0002] In complex environments, dynamic temperature monitoring and accurate measurement are crucial for industrial production safety, energy optimization, and equipment maintenance. Traditional temperature monitoring technologies suffer from the following significant drawbacks:

[0003] Insufficient spatiotemporal resolution: Sensor networks using single points or sparsely distributed points are difficult to capture the three-dimensional distribution and dynamic changes of temperature fields in complex environments. Spatial resolution is usually limited to 1-5m, and time response delay is >100ms, which cannot meet the requirements of high dynamic scenarios.

[0004] Low fusion of multi-source data: Measurement data from different types of sensors (such as thermocouples, infrared thermometers, and fiber optic sensors) are heterogeneous. Traditional fusion methods only perform simple weighted averaging without considering the spatiotemporal correlation of the temperature field, resulting in large errors in the fusion results (usually > ±0.5℃).

[0005] Dynamic error accumulation: Electromagnetic interference, vibration, and temperature and humidity changes in complex environments can cause sensor drift. Traditional static calibration methods (such as periodic offline calibration) cannot compensate for dynamic errors in real time, and the measurement accuracy decreases by more than 30% after long-term operation.

[0006] Lack of visualization and prediction capabilities: Traditional systems mostly display monitoring results in the form of numerical tables, which cannot intuitively present the temperature field distribution; and they can only monitor passively, and cannot predict temperature change trends based on historical data and current conditions, making it difficult to support proactive decision-making.

[0007] However, existing temperature monitoring systems that integrate digital twins still suffer from problems such as low modeling accuracy (geometric error >1%), inaccurate mapping of thermal characteristics, and large virtual-real synchronization delay (>50ms). To address these issues, a dynamic monitoring and measurement system for thermal temperature in complex environments that integrates digital twin technology is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0008] In view of this, the present invention provides a dynamic monitoring and measurement system for thermal temperature in complex environments that integrates digital twin technology, in order to solve or alleviate the technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option.

[0019] In terms of real-time performance, the synchronization latency between the virtual image and the physical environment is <10ms;

[0020] Dynamic evolution is achieved using a coupled equation of heat flow field and temperature field, wherein the coupled equation is:

[0021]

[0023] More preferably, the multi-source data fusion network is an improved spatiotemporal attention fusion network, comprising: a temporal attention module: extracting the temporal dependence features of the temperature sequence through a gated recurrent unit (GRU); and a spatial attention module: capturing spatial correlation features using a graph convolutional network (GCN).

[0024] More preferably, the dynamic compensation algorithm module adopts a dynamic error compensation model based on Kalman filtering, and the compensation formula is: in, The compensated temperature estimate is T_m(k), the sensor measurement is T_d(k), the digital twin model prediction is T_d(k), K(k) is the Kalman gain, and H(k) is the observation matrix.

[0025] More preferably, the adaptive calibration unit employs an online dual-frequency calibration method, which involves introducing a standard blackbody radiation source (emissivity ε = 0.995) and performing calibration in real time during system operation.

[0026] High-frequency calibration: Perform a rapid calibration every 10 minutes to correct the drift error ΔT_drift;

[0028] The total calibration error ΔT_calib = ΔT_drift + ΔT_system, and the system metrological accuracy after calibration reaches ±0.05℃.

[0029] More preferably, the metrological traceability engine establishes a complete traceability chain from sensor measurements to the national temperature benchmark, satisfying the formula:

[0030] T_measured=T_true+ΣΔT_i+ε;

[0031] Where T_true is the true temperature, ΣΔT_i is the sum of all errors (including sensor error, environmental interference error, and transmission error), and ε is the random error that satisfies ε~N(0,σ) 2 ), σ<0.02℃.
