[0011] (4) The multi-station data obtained are divided into grids in the three-dimensional environment to calculate the sound ray length and propagation time in each grid, a coefficient matrix is obtained, and a three-dimensional grid temperature field is constructed;
[0012] (5) The inverse problem is calculated by the Lagrange least square method, a smoothness penalty term is added, an error threshold is set, if the inversion error exceeds the set value, the iterative calculation is returned, and the inversion error is calculated until the inversion error meets the requirements;
[0013] (6) The three-dimensional temperature field is visualized.
[0014] In the present application, in step (1), the same frequency and different modal signals of the same family are used between each acoustic station in the acoustic transceiving system, and the same transmission mode is used between all stations to ensure that the acoustic signals of each other station can be received at the same interval time.
[0015] Preferably, the acoustic transceiving system comprises a float, an acoustic transducer, a temperature-salinity-depth profiler, a data acquisition system, a floating ball and a net position instrument; the float is located on the water surface, the data acquisition system is located inside the float and connected with the acoustic transducer; the acoustic transducer is arranged at different depths underwater, one end is connected with the floating ball, and the other end is fixed to a weight.

[0017] Further, all acoustic transducers are fixed at a set water depth by the way of anchoring downward and floating upward, ensuring the position of the transducers unchanged, while the data acquisition system is placed in the water surface buoy connected with the transducers through cable.
[0018] Preferably, in step (2), the observed environment is surveyed by the instrument to obtain the topography of the observed environment; the obtained topography data are combined with GPS data and station position to input into the sound ray simulation program to obtain complete three-dimensional ray simulation results between stations, and reference propagation time of different sound rays is obtained.

[0034] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application, however, the present application can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0035] As shown in the figure, a small-scale three-dimensional temperature field observation inversion method comprises the following steps: Figure 1
[0036] Step 1: Topographic scanning is performed on the area to be observed to determine the positions where the stations need to be deployed, and a three-dimensional station deployment experiment is established. An acoustic transceiver system is arranged at each acoustic station to collect raw data of the observed water area.
[0037] In this embodiment, the acoustic transceiver system includes a buoy, an acoustic transducer, a temperature-salinity-depth profiler, a data acquisition system, a floating ball, and a net position instrument. The three-dimensional station deployment experiment requires that the acoustic transducer be deployed at different depths, and the position of the ultrasonic transceiver should be kept as constant as possible. All acoustic stations need to be time-synchronized using GPS and record the station positions. The acoustic signal uses the same transmission and reception mode, and different modes of the same signal family are used. The same transmission and reception mode allows each acoustic station to receive bidirectional acoustic signals at the same time, and the distance of the "direct path" obtained is used as the distance correction parameter between stations.
[0038] Each station is arranged as shown in Figure 2 The end of the acoustic transducer is anchored with a weight, and the other end is connected with a floating ball. The floating ball, line, ultrasonic transceiver, line, and weight are all underwater. The data acquisition system and battery are placed inside the buoy, which is fixed to the water surface by two anchors. A cable is connected between the buoy and the transducer, and the cable needs to be kept in a relaxed state. Figure 2 S1, S2, and S3 are the station numbers of the three stations, and L12, L23, and L31 are the station spacing numbers between two stations.
[0039] Step 2: High-precision three-dimensional acoustic ray simulation is performed using the collected temperature profile and topographic data and the station deployment data to obtain possible acoustic ray forms, reference propagation times, and acoustic ray lengths. The original observation data are also collected and correlated between two stations to obtain the propagation time of the observed acoustic ray.
[0040] In this step, the depth topography of the observed environment is obtained by using a depth sounder, an ADCP (acoustic Doppler current profiler), and other instruments. The obtained topographic data are combined with GPS data and station deployment positions to input into the acoustic ray simulation program to obtain complete three-dimensional ray simulation results between stations and reference propagation times of different acoustic rays.
[0041] Step 3: The simulation acoustic rays and reference propagation times in Step 2 are combined to compare the propagation time results after processing the observation data, to distinguish different paths in the simulation acoustic rays, to select all possible identified acoustic rays, and to distinguish and extract the relevant peaks and corresponding propagation times in all observation data.
[0042] Step 4: The three-dimensional acoustic ray area is divided into a three-dimensional grid, and the acoustic ray length and corresponding reference sound speed in each three-dimensional grid are solved. The observation data error values are removed as output quantities for solving the three-dimensional temperature field.
[0043] When the grid is divided, k x k x k cubic grids are divided in the three-dimensional region, and the sound rays are distributed on the grid and propagate, and the specific parameters and formulas are as follows:
[0044] For each sound ray, the following can be obtained: l ijk is the length of the jth sound ray between the ith station and the kth grid, C 0k and δC k represent the reference sound speed of the kth grid and the deviation of the actual sound speed in the kth grid from the reference sound speed C 0k , respectively, t 0ij and δt ij represent the reference propagation time of the jth sound ray between the ith station and the reference propagation time and the deviation of the actual propagation time, respectively, and l represents the number of station surfaces (for example, 5 stations, a total of 10 station surfaces), m represents the total number of sound rays in each station surface, and n represents the total number of cubic grids.
[0045] Step 5: Establish a three-dimensional temperature field inversion method, taking a 3x3x3 grid division as an example, as follows: the jth sound ray on the ith profile:
[0046]
[0047] The above formula is obtained by Taylor expansion:
[0048]
[0049] The above formula is written in matrix form as follows:
[0050]
[0051] wherein, is defined as the coefficient matrix, x = δC k is defined as the vector to be inverted, N is defined as the solution error, y = δt ij is the measured two-station sound propagation time difference, which is written as a matrix equation y = Ex + N.
[0052] Step 6: Calculate the sound ray length and propagation time of each three-dimensional grid, construct the coefficient matrix, construct the three-dimensional temperature field, and obtain the inversion error in each grid. The regularization inversion method is used to solve the equation. x is the expected optimal solution The value of λ is determined by the expected error within the set threshold; at the same time, a three-dimensional H regularization matrix is introduced to smooth the results by moving average among multiple grids. The solution x = δC k is obtained, and the sound speed C k = δC k + C 0kIt is also found that the sound velocity field in the entire observation area can be obtained by interpolation, and the temperature field can be obtained by applying the sound velocity formula.
[0053] C(T,S,D)=1448.96+4.591T-0.05304T 2 +2.734×10 -4 T 3 +1.340(S-35)+1.630×10 -2 D+1.675×10 -7 D 2 -1.025×10 -2 T(S-35)-7.139×10 -13 TD 3
[0054] In the above formula, C, T, D, and S represent the speed of sound, temperature, depth, and salinity, respectively; the H matrix is based on... Figure 3 The grid numbers for the instances in the example are as follows:
[0055]
[0056] Step 7: Finally, perform visualization processing of the three-dimensional temperature field.
[0057] To verify the effectiveness of this invention, an observation experiment was conducted on a specific water area of the Huangcai Reservoir in Changsha to obtain three-dimensional temperature field information in a vertical profile. Specifically:
[0058] It includes the following devices: three sets of 50kHz frequency transceivers, three sets of acoustic transceiver systems, floats, weights, TD, CTD, ADCP, etc.
[0059] Step 3 identifies and extracts multiple transmission lines on three transmission profiles within the entire 3D environment: the direct path, the surface reflection path, and the bottom reflection path, and calculates the ray length and propagation time of each transmission path for each grid.
[0060] After obtaining the ray length and propagation time for each 3D grid, a corresponding program was written in MATLAB to construct a 3D temperature field using a grid partitioning method. This optimizes the current approach, which only observes the average temperature field of layered paths along vertical profiles, thus obtaining more refined temperature information. Figure 4 The image shows the vertical temperature field information at a certain moment in a three-dimensional environment. The changes in ambient temperature can be observed through each isothermal surface.
[0061] The three-dimensional temperature field more intuitively reflects the distribution and variation trend of temperature at different locations in the entire three-dimensional environment during the observation period than the two-dimensional temperature field, demonstrating the effectiveness of this method in observing the three-dimensional temperature environment in small-scale water bodies.
[0062] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
