[0057] The application will be further explained and described below with reference to a specific embodiment:
[0058] As shown in the figure, the intelligent control method of the porous medium burner of the application comprises: Figure 1
[0059] Step S1: The first acquisition unit acquires the operation and state parameters obtained in the normal running state of the porous medium burner and historical experiments, and takes the operation and state parameters as reference historical data; the operation parameters include operation power, inlet air temperature, fuel flow, and air flow; the state parameters include combustion temperature, oxygen content, NOx content, and CO content at the outlet of the burner; in this embodiment, the historical experimental data of the porous medium burner experimental table of the Key Laboratory of Thermal Science and Engineering of the Ministry of Education of Xi'an Jiaotong University are taken as the reference historical data, and preset threshold values are set, including a combustion temperature of 900℃, residual oxygen content of 2%, NOx content of 30mg / (kW·h), CO content of 0.02%(α=1), and noise of 48dB(A).
[0060] Step S2: Based on the intelligent control system of the porous medium burner, the second acquisition unit acquires the operation and state parameters of each combustion module, and the parameter structure is the same as that in S1, and the operation parameters further include the number of modules, and the state parameters further include noise. The data of the same parameters of each combustion module are classified to generate an operation power database, an enabled module database, a temperature database, a flow database, a flue gas composition database, and a noise database. In this embodiment, the number of combustion modules is 4, that is, a maximum of 4 porous medium combustion modules can run at the same time, and each combustion module generates a separate operation and state parameter database.
[0061] Step S3: The calculation unit establishes an importance analysis model between the power demand and the number of combustion modules and the state parameters and operation parameters of the combustion modules based on a machine learning algorithm; the KNN algorithm is applied to analyze the correlation between the power demand and the number of combustion modules, and the closest rated power and the number of combustion modules matched therewith under a specified power are found out. The principle of the KNN algorithm is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the horizontal axis is the number of combustion modules, the vertical axis is the power, K is the number of adjacent points (3 in this example), and the coordinate points in the quadrant are historical experimental data; taking summer and winter operation as examples, the summer burner power demand is low, about 800kW·m -2 , the power parameter is substituted into the KNN algorithm, the nearest three points power and combustion module number are found out, and the required combustion module number is determined to be 2 by voting calculation; the winter burner power demand is high, about 1645kW·m -2 , the calculation method is the same, and the required combustion module number is determined to be 4.
[0062] The random forest algorithm is applied to analyze the correlation degree of the state parameters and the operation parameters, the importance factor of each operation parameter is determined and the operation parameter with the largest importance factor is found out by judging the influence of the operation parameter of each combustion module on the state parameter of the combustion module corresponding to each tree in the random forest. In the random forest algorithm, there are several decision trees, and the number of samples and the number of features are randomly selected for each decision tree, so as to ensure randomness. In this example, the features are selected based on the GINI coefficient, and the selection standard of the GINI coefficient is that each sub-node reaches the highest purity, that is, all observations falling in the sub-node belong to one category, at this time, the GINI coefficient is the smallest, the purity is the highest, and the uncertainty is the smallest. For a general decision tree, assuming that there are N categories in total, and the probability of a sample belonging to the nth category is p n , then the GINI coefficient of the probability distribution is formula (1):
[0063]
[0064] The larger the GINI coefficient, the smaller the difference between the samples, the lower the uncertainty, the more complete the parameter segmentation, and the cleaner. The decision tree diagram constructed in this embodiment is shown in Figure 3 , there are two decision trees of air flow decision tree and fuel flow decision tree, N=4, and the selected features include temperature, CO content, NOx content and noise. Figure 3 This is only a schematic diagram of the method used in this embodiment, and the intelligent control system of the porous medium burner actually includes but is not limited to the decision tree described in Figure 3 .
[0065] In addition, when the external computer and the display are connected, the importance function of the operation parameter with respect to the state parameter is constructed according to the random forest algorithm in machine learning, and the operation parameter importance analysis function of each combustion module is also constructed. The importance column chart is formed and output, and the influence of the operation parameters of each module on the system is analyzed.
[0066] Step S4: In the analysis unit, when it is monitored that the state parameter of the combustion module exceeds the preset threshold value, the running, state parameter of the combustion module is analyzed with the reference historical data by using a long-short time prediction neural network to predict the next time step state parameter, and when the deviation of the predicted result of the combustion module from the reference historical data is greater than a preset threshold value, the running parameter is adjusted. The principle of the long-short time sequence prediction neural network algorithm is as shown in Figure 4 The analysis logic is as shown in Figure 5 X i is a grid input value, which is a state parameter (temperature, NOx content, etc.) obtained by the second acquisition unit at runtime in the present case; Function is a prediction algorithm; P i is the output predicted value, which is also a state parameter. A certain state parameter X t at time t is transmitted to the analysis unit, and the long-short time sequence prediction neural network predicts the predicted value P t of the state parameter at the next time step (the time step length is taken as 0.5 s in the present case) by using the historical data (X0, X1, X2…) of the parameter, and compares the predicted value with the set threshold value to determine whether the running parameter needs to be adjusted. When the parameter does not need to be adjusted, the predicted curve is compared with the real running condition in real time to observe whether the change trend of the predicted value is similar to that of the actual value, and if so, the predicted result is processed by weighting according to the corresponding deviation amplitude (the weight is obtained from the optimal regression algorithm), and if not, the grid search method is used to adjust the hyperparameters, update the historical data, and re-analyze. In addition, when the external computer and display are connected, the analysis unit also establishes the running state parameter time sequence curve of the control system. At the same time, according to the analysis result obtained by the importance function, an important influence running parameter and system state parameter time sequence comparison analysis diagram is established to intuitively compare and evaluate the analysis result of the importance influence.
[0067] Step S5: The running parameter with the largest importance factor is adjusted, the adjustment amount is calculated according to the optimal regression principle, and the state parameter of the combustion module is continuously monitored by the monitoring unit after the adjustment. The present application takes the running state parameter reference historical data set as the standard, uses the optimal regression algorithm in machine learning, draws the running state trend curve of the porous medium burner, and outputs the corresponding weight parameters and intercept parameters (r1,...rn, b).
