Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of transformer hot spot temperature value calculation, and particularly relates to a method for predicting transformer hot spot temperature based on numerical calculation and linear regression model. BACKGROUND
[0002] During the operation of distribution transformers, the internal temperature distribution is uneven, and if the local temperature is abnormal, it will accelerate the thermal aging and affect the degradation of transformer oil paper insulation. When the transformer winding is overheated, the short-term overheating treatment measure is to reduce the load, and the long-term overheating needs to install an additional transformer. The temperature of the transformer needs to be predicted according to the predicted load, environmental temperature and cooling mode, and accurate temperature prediction can make full use of the capacity of the existing equipment, delay the installation of new transformers, thereby saving money for the power industry. In addition, temperature prediction can be used to determine the maximum load acceptable by the transformer under different load, environment and cooling mode conditions, and to evaluate its overload capacity. Real-time and accurate calculation of the temperature rise characteristics and hot spot temperature of the transformer is beneficial to the safe and stable operation of the distribution transformer.
[0003] Some people in the prior art have proposed a method for predicting transformer temperature based on a neural network model, for example, Chinese patent document CN 113705082A describes a transformer hot spot temperature prediction method based on an improved BP neural network, which is based on an improved BP neural network model. The load current, top layer oil temperature, environmental temperature and hot spot temperature under the running state of the transformer are collected in real time, and the load rate is calculated according to the load current, and a transformer hot spot temperature prediction method is proposed. However, this method cannot directly calculate the hot spot temperature at this time according to the existing geometric structure, physical parameters, environmental temperature and load coefficient of the transformer. It cannot select more optimized materials to be applied to the transformer, thereby improving the overload capacity and service life of the transformer. It also cannot provide data support for the design of the best design material transformer. There are defects in use and need to be improved. SUMMARY

[0090] The process of optimizing the neural network by the cuckoo algorithm includes three parts: determining the neural network structure, obtaining the best weights and biases through the cuckoo algorithm, and predicting the hot spot temperature value based on the neural network; in the temperature rise prediction model, the objective function is the error between the predicted value and the true value.

[0095] Compared with the traditional neural network, the proposed model has higher accuracy on the real winding hot spot temperature data set, and the work can provide a new idea for the thermal characteristic research of distribution transformers. The operation method of the present application will be described in the form of examples as follows:
[0096] Example 1
[0097] As Figure 1 described above, the high and low voltage winding of the test transformer is a pie-shaped winding wound by copper wire. In order to improve the overload bearing capacity, the turn insulation adopts H-grade heat-resistant level, and other structural insulation materials adopt different heat-resistant level materials. This distribution transformer is selected for research.
[0098] In the specific implementation, when constructing the three-dimensional model of the test transformer, the structure is optimized, the winding is refined into a pie-shaped structure according to the actual structure of the transformer, and the axial distribution characteristics of the oil flow in the horizontal oil channel of the transformer and the temperature distribution of the oil flow along the circumferential direction are considered, and the geometric model is shown in Figure 2 When the simulation model is calculated based on the finite element method, the calculation accuracy is proportional to the quality and quantity of the occupied unit grid, and high-quality grid makes the geometric model structure have high restoration degree. When the simulation model needs to reduce the calculation amount, the balance time and accuracy are obtained, and the results that meet the calculation accuracy and iteration time are obtained, and an economical finite element calculation model is sought. Therefore, when constructing the model grid, the simulation model is divided into non-overlapping grids, and structured grid is used when constructing the grid. Since the temperature gradient at the fluid-solid interface is obtained by the temperature difference between the interface and the adjacent layer of grid points, the grid division precision at this position is higher, and the grid of the geometric model after division is shown in Figure 2 .
[0099] Then the material property parameters existing in the transformer can be fitted in the origin software, and fitted as a mathematical function, as shown in Table 1.
[0100] Table 1 Material property parameters
[0101]
[0102] The no-load loss and load loss are obtained by the transformer temperature rise test. In order to calculate conveniently, the average loss density is uniformly applied in each heat source when the heat source is loaded. The heat generation rate of each heat generating part of the transformer is shown in Table 2.
[0103] Table 2 Loss and heat generation rate of distribution transformer
[0104]
[0105] The transformer operation process is a non-ideal state, and each structural part will generate loss and convert into heat and dissipate to the surrounding medium, causing internal temperature rise. The internal temperature distribution of the distribution transformer is shown in Figure 3 When the axial height increases, the temperature of the core and winding rises but is not uniform. The internal temperature of the transformer gradually rises due to the continuous heating of the loss such as iron loss and copper loss, and finally reaches a thermal equilibrium state. The transformer oil in the oil duct is heated and the temperature rises, and the buoyancy difference caused by the decrease of oil density causes the insulating oil to flow upward along the oil duct, and the outlet temperature of the transformer internal oil flow is higher than the inlet temperature. Since the heat dissipation effect of the lower end of the transformer is better than that of the upper end, the upper end temperature is higher than the lower end temperature. When the transformer is stably operated, the hot spot temperature is located at about 9 / 10 of the upper part of the low-voltage winding.
[0106] More specifically, in the simulation, the temperature rise distribution curve of the transformer under different load coefficients is obtained by changing the load parameters, the overload capacity of the amorphous alloy plant insulating oil distribution transformer is evaluated, and the hot spot temperature of the transformer under natural oil circulation cooling mode is shown in Table 3.
[0107] Table 3 Hot spot temperature of transformer under natural oil circulation cooling mode
[0108]
[0109] Subsequently, the short-circuit test method is used for temperature rise test to verify the rationality and accuracy of the multi-physical field coupling simulation model of the transformer. The actual test data is used as a standard and compared with the simulation results. The test wiring is shown in Figure 4 The temperature distribution results obtained by the transformer temperature rise test are compared with the simulation results. The temperature distribution trend of the simulation results and the test data is basically consistent, and the temperature rise prediction of the transformer is relatively accurate.
[0110] In order to establish a universal transformer winding hot-spot temperature prediction model, a feature data set containing various different operating states of the transformer must be constructed. The external environment can significantly affect the heat exchange between the transformer and the external space, changing the heat exchange efficiency and thus affecting the winding hot-spot temperature of the transformer, so the ambient temperature is selected as a characteristic variable. In addition, the load condition of the transformer will affect the heating of the core and coil, directly affecting the radiation and conduction processes of the heat source, so the overload factor of the load is also selected for constructing the database. The data is randomly divided into two parts, training set and test set. 80% of the total number of samples is used to train the hot-spot prediction model, and 20% is used to verify the feasibility of the model. Part of the training data set is shown in Table 4.
[0111] Table 4 Training sample data set
[0112]
[0113] Based on the neural network model, the overload factor and real-time ambient temperature are taken as input factors, and the hot-spot temperature is output to construct the hot-spot prediction model of the distribution transformer. The neural network topology diagram is shown in Figure 5 , and the training process is as follows:
[0114] (1) Network initialization: initialize the connection weights ω ij and ω jk between the input layer, hidden layer, and output layer neurons, and initialize the threshold values of the hidden layer i and the output layer k.
[0115] (2) Calculate the output of the hidden layer H j :
[0116]
[0117] In the formula, f is the activation function of the hidden layer; X i is the input variable of the neuron; a j is the threshold value or offset value of the hidden layer. The function selected in this paper is the Sigmoid function:
[0118]
[0119] (3) Calculate the output layer result O k :
[0120]
[0121] In the formula, b k is the threshold value or offset value of the output layer.
[0122] (4) Error calculation, according to the network prediction output O k and the expected output Y k , the network prediction error ek :
[0123] e k = Y k - O k ;
[0124] (5) Weight update, according to the network prediction error e k update network connection weights ω ij and ω jk :
[0125]
[0126] where η is the learning rate; x i is the input value.
[0127] (6) Threshold update: according to the network prediction error e k update network node threshold a j and b k .
[0128]
[0129] (7) Determine whether the iteration of the algorithm has ended or reached the required error range. After reaching, the model training is completed, and if not, return to step (2).
[0130] The neural network model training results are compared with the ideal as shown in Figures 6-8 . The fitting effect of the predicted value is good, and the training speed is fast and the calculation efficiency is high. However, the neural network model also has drawbacks in practical application. The initial weights and thresholds are randomly generated, leading to unstable algorithms. In addition, the gradient descent method has limitations, including long training time and weak local search ability. Since the cuckoo search algorithm has superior optimization ability, to address the above problems, this paper optimizes the neural network based on the cuckoo search algorithm, overcoming the instability of the algorithm caused by blind selection of initial values, and improving the reliability of the prediction results. The optimization method is shown in Figure 9 .
[0131] To reduce the number of iterations and ensure the practicality of the training results. When training the hot spot temperature, the number of hidden layers of the model is set to 5, and the confirmation check value is 6. The learning rate is selected as 0.01, and if the number of iterations reaches 1000 or the error rate is less than 10E-5, the iteration will stop. Table 5 shows the selection results of the initial weights and thresholds of the neural network model optimized by the cuckoo search algorithm. w H is the weight matrix from the input layer to the hidden layer, b H is the threshold of the hidden layer. w O is the weight matrix from the hidden layer to the output layer, b OThreshold value of output layer. According to the determined model structure, the model is trained by the data of the training set, and the model with strong universality and generalization is obtained through continuous iteration training.

[0133]
[0134] Table 6 comparison of training results before and after model improvement
[0135]
[0136] Based on the cuckoo search algorithm optimization, the optimization iteration results of the neural network model and the traditional neural network model are analyzed, and the prediction results of the hot spot temperature of the cuckoo algorithm before and after the improvement are compared and analyzed, as shown in Table 6. It can be seen that the error eigenvalue of the improved model is significantly reduced, the accuracy is improved, the sample iteration efficiency is improved, and the running time is significantly shortened, which has great advantages in the direction of hot spot temperature size prediction. Figure 10 In order to optimize the fitness curve of the model, the terminal number is 50, which indicates that the model can converge after 50 iterations, indicating that the convergence speed of the optimized model is improved.
