Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of transformer oil quality detection, and in particular to a method and system for predicting the moisture content of transformer oil. Background Art

[0002] Power transformers, responsible for regulating voltage levels, transmitting energy, and controlling power flows, are core electrical equipment in power systems. Their stable, safe, efficient, and long-term operation is directly related to the stability and safety of the power system. A transformer failure can have serious consequences, leading to widespread power outages, significant economic losses, and even serious safety incidents. Therefore, inspecting the operating status of transformer insulation and promptly detecting and resolving potential faults is a crucial measure for ensuring power system safety and efficiency. As one of the most important insulating media within a transformer, transformer oil is responsible for insulation, heat dissipation, and arc suppression. Its quality not only affects the transformer's electrical characteristics but also significantly impacts its service life. Moisture content is one of the key indicators for evaluating transformer oil quality. Excessive moisture content in transformer oil can lead to numerous insulation system problems, such as reduced breakdown voltage, increased dielectric loss, and accelerated chemical reactions of organic matter, potentially leading to insulation breakdown and equipment burnout. Therefore, monitoring transformer oil moisture content during operation is crucial for maintaining stable operation.

[0003] Currently, the power industry typically removes insulating oil from operating transformers and regularly measures its moisture content in external laboratories using Karl Fischer titration. While this method offers high measurement accuracy, the measurement process is cumbersome, making it difficult to detect potential transformer faults in a timely manner. Furthermore, the oil is susceptible to external contamination during transportation to the external laboratory. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Inputting the first ultrasonic voiceprint feature into a preset moisture content prediction model, and using the first moisture content output by the moisture content prediction model as a moisture content prediction result of the transformer oil to be tested, so as to complete the moisture content prediction of the transformer oil to be tested;

[0008] Among them, the first ultrasonic voiceprint feature includes a first sound speed parameter, a first maximum amplitude, a first absolute average value, a first root mean square value and a first waveform index. The moisture content prediction model is obtained by training and verifying the RBF neural network model based on the first sample data set. The first sample data set includes several groups of second ultrasonic voiceprint features and the second moisture content corresponding to each group of the second ultrasonic voiceprint features.

[0009] Implementation of the present invention utilizes a mapping relationship between ultrasonic soundprint features and moisture content established by a moisture content prediction model to predict and output the moisture content of the transformer oil under test in real time. This ensures the real-time nature of the transformer oil moisture content prediction, thereby helping users promptly identify potential transformer faults without interference from the external environment. Furthermore, by using the first sound velocity parameter, the first maximum amplitude, the first absolute average value, the first root mean square value, and the first waveform index as the basis for predicting the moisture content of the transformer oil, the moisture content prediction model analyzes the moisture content prediction results of the transformer oil under test from both propagation characteristics and time domain characteristics, thereby improving the generalization capability and prediction accuracy of the moisture content prediction model.

Meanwhile, if the moisture content prediction accuracy does not meet the preset range, a new sample data set is obtained and the RBF neural network model is trained multiple times using the new sample data set until the moisture content prediction accuracy meets the preset range, so as to optimize and adjust the model parameters so that the moisture content prediction model finally obtained can be applied to the moisture content prediction of various transformer oils.

Before activating the detection platform, certain preparatory measures must be taken, including steps ① to ②. It is worth noting that the order of steps ① to ② is not necessarily limited to this. The order can be reversed, or individual steps can be performed simultaneously. This is not specifically limited here and depends on the specific application environment. The specific steps are as follows:
