Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of material corrosion failure monitoring, and in particular to a data-driven offshore equipment corrosion monitoring and safety early warning system. Background Art
[0002] Marine resource development, maritime transportation, marine infrastructure, oil drilling platforms, offshore wind energy, cross-sea bridges and other equipment and facilities are in an extremely corrosive marine atmosphere all year round. The equipment and facilities will suffer from severe corrosion failure, which will bring huge maintenance costs and service safety hazards. Therefore, accurate fault diagnosis and early safety inspection systems for offshore equipment can be used to arrange maintenance, extend service life and ensure service safety.
[0003] At present, the most common methods for implementing corrosion status monitoring are manual inspection or installing a single corrosion sensor on equipment and facilities. The former requires professional technicians to operate, which is time-consuming and laborious, but still cannot avoid misjudgment; the latter determines the corrosion status by judging whether a single measurement value or a simple calculation value is within a specified range, but in actual service, a single sensor often sends a large number of false alarms because it cannot efficiently and accurately identify complex and changing environments, resulting in false alarms that waste manpower or missed reports that cause damage. This is because the corrosion safety status of equipment and facilities cannot be reliably judged based on the analysis of a single measurement. The instability, weakness, and randomness of a single sensor fault signal make it easy for the fault signal in the early stage of a corrosion accident to be submerged in noise, which also loses the meaning of monitoring.
[0004] Corrosion diagnosis is not a simple one-to-one solution process, and modern multidisciplinary fusion technology should be used for comprehensive judgment. The occurrence of corrosion is strongly correlated with the temperature, humidity and chloride ions in the marine atmospheric environment, and the chloride ion concentration is strongly correlated with wind speed and direction. At the same time, the impact of corrosion on the monitored components will lead to a certain degree of mass loss and adhesion of corrosion products. The degree of corrosion and the vibration acceleration and amplitude of the components will have a potential relationship of mutual promotion. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a state monitoring and safety early warning system based on the fusion of multiple sensor devices and multiple algorithms to realize continuous monitoring of the corrosion safety status of offshore equipment, fault diagnosis, and prediction of future corrosion trends.

[0061] Furthermore, the software unit 3 includes an algorithm module 31; the algorithm module 31 includes two neural network models for training historical data and applying the trained model to real-time data to predict and classify corrosion signals.
[0062] Specifically, the algorithm module 31 includes a GRU neural network model 311 and a CTSAN neural network model 312 (convolutional spatiotemporal attention neural network model); the GRU neural network model 311 is used to predict the corrosion trend of the monitored components based on the GRU neural network and parameter attention mechanism; the CTSAN neural network model 312 is used to output the classification results of the transient corrosion degree of the monitored components.

Finally, the features that comprehensively consider the weights of the above two parts are input into the classification layer to output the predicted corrosion category.
[0078] In a more specific embodiment, the same steel type as the gearbox material of the No. 1 wind turbine of the Donghai Bridge Wind Farm is selected, and 14 rectangular steel sheets with a length of 20 mm, a width of 10 mm, and a thickness of 1 mm are cut, and a number of polytetrafluoroethylene insulating gaskets with a length of 20 mm, a width of 10 mm, and a thickness of 0.1 mm are prepared. A polytetrafluoroethylene insulating gasket is sandwiched between each two adjacent steel sheets. The odd-numbered steel sheets are connected by wires as anodes, and the even-numbered steel sheets are connected by wires as cathodes. After all the test pieces are compacted without leaving any gaps between the adjacent pieces, they are encapsulated with epoxy resin, leaving only one test surface exposed. After air drying, the cathode wire is connected to the positive electrode of the data collector, and the anode wire is connected to the negative electrode of the data collector to make a corrosion dual-electrode sensor probe structure as shown in FIG. Figure 3 shown.
[0079] The corrosion dual-electrode detector probe and the environmental temperature and humidity detector probe are fixed on the surface of the gearbox, and the eddy current displacement sensor element is fitted inside the gearbox. After the installation is completed, the sensor signal is collected and the corrosion operation data of the gearbox of the No. 1 wind turbine of the Donghai Bridge Wind Farm is obtained. The obtained instantaneous sensor data and corrosion safety operation log are sent to the data storage unit. The corrosion parameter quantification conversion of the sensor signal is performed in the data storage unit through the collected sensor data (as shown in Table 1). At this time, only the iron dissolution reaction in the material is considered, that is, At this time, the stoichiometric coefficient is 1; the number of participating electrons is 2; the density of the monitored steel is 7850kg / m3; the relative molecular mass is 0.056kg / mol. The instantaneous loss value of the corrosion thickness of the monitored component material in the service environment is calculated by collecting the initial sensor signal data, where A is 0.4, B is 0.35, and C is 0.25; the values of a, b, c, d, e, and f are 1.3e-11, 7.1, 21.75, 75.5, 0.26, and 0.73, respectively. The instantaneous corrosion loss value after the quantitative conversion of the corrosion parameters can be expressed as:
[0080]
[0081] After that, it is pre-processed for noise reduction and outliers are removed before being sent to the software unit for model training.
[0082] Table 1
[0083]
[0084] During the monitoring process, the newly input sensor signal participates in the calculation within the trained model unit and outputs the classification result and prediction value. Figure 4 The controller displays the measured and predicted values of the instantaneous data after preprocessing and noise removal. If the preset upper limit of the residual error is reached and the over-limit time threshold is exceeded, a safety alarm is triggered, indicating that the gearbox of the No. 1 wind turbine of the Donghai Bridge Wind Farm is in an abnormal corrosion state, the chassis material is severely corroded, and the risk of corrosion fracture may occur at any time; if the preset upper limit of the residual error is not reached, it is a normal corrosion behavior state. At this time, the instantaneous corrosion state and corrosion degree classification results can be viewed on the display, such as Figure 5 As shown, the newly output non-abnormal instantaneous corrosion data is stored in the data storage unit in the form of an operation and maintenance safety log, thereby achieving the effect of improving the offshore wind turbine corrosion database and optimizing the neural network model.
[0085] In summary, the data-driven offshore equipment corrosion status monitoring and safety early warning system described in this embodiment can continuously monitor the corrosion safety service status of important components of offshore equipment, compile sensor signals into intuitive corrosion information by constructing corrosion parameter quantification conversion equations and environmental response coefficients, and integrate multiple algorithm models to classify and evaluate the transient corrosion degree of the monitored components based on big data technology, and predict future corrosion trends. While improving the accuracy of corrosion monitoring, it changes the "occur first, then detect" phenomenon of traditional corrosion failure monitoring, and provides early warning for important components of offshore equipment before corrosion failure occurs.
[0086] In addition, the data-driven offshore equipment corrosion status monitoring and safety warning system described in this embodiment adopts multi-sensor fusion technology, which eliminates the disadvantages of frequent false alarms and missed alarms of a single sensor, enriches the information source, broadens the channel, and realizes the prediction of corrosion accidents on the basis of high automation and intelligence, and assists maintenance personnel to replace equipment components in time.
