[0024] As mentioned earlier, the operational status of the frequency converter system directly determines the efficiency and stability of the entire production process. An unstable frequency converter system will lead to production disruptions, decreased product quality, and even unplanned shutdowns, causing production halts, potentially resulting in major equipment accidents and personnel safety risks. If frequency converter system maintenance is only initiated when a fault occurs, the production process will be interrupted, causing significant economic losses and safety hazards. Furthermore, the frequency converter system is often already in a suboptimal state before the fault, naturally leading to decreased production efficiency and poor product quality. Additionally, by the time a frequency converter fails, the equipment damage is already substantial, potentially rendering it unrepairable.

[0025] Therefore, real-time monitoring of the inverter's operating status during operation and real-time management of the inverter's status based on the operating conditions are of great significance for improving production efficiency, timely maintenance of the inverter, and extending the inverter's service life.

[0026] In practical applications, while continuous collection of process data generated by inverters throughout the entire production line for preventative maintenance can monitor the status of inverters, the sheer volume of such data grows exponentially as the requirements for inverter system functionality, performance, efficiency, and reliability continue to increase. The sheer volume of data, coupled with strong inter-data coupling, makes real-time monitoring and alarm analysis of this massive amount of process data virtually impossible.

[0027] Based on this, the embodiments of this application provide a method for monitoring the safe and reliable operation of the inverter by collecting changes in certain important characteristic parameters of the inverter system during operation based on time or event, relying on real data and reliable methods to evaluate the health status of the equipment itself, and combining scientific fault diagnosis to take necessary measures to mitigate the performance degradation of the equipment.

[0028] The inverter status management method, system, electronic device, and storage medium provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Inverter status management method

[0030] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a frequency converter state management method according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the inverter status management method 100 includes the following steps:

[0031] Step 101: Determine the availability index, system performance index, and system quality index of the frequency converter. The availability index indicates the operating status of the frequency converter, the system performance index indicates the control performance of the frequency converter, and the system quality index indicates the operating stability of the frequency converter.

[0032] In the exemplary embodiments of this application, some important characteristic parameters related to the frequency converter are monitored, and the changes of these parameters during the operation of the frequency converter are collected. Based on these parameters, the health status of the frequency converter itself is judged, so as to take corresponding measures to manage the frequency converter, alleviate the performance degradation of the frequency converter equipment, and provide a foundation for high-speed and efficient production.

[0033] In practical applications, availability is a crucial attribute of frequency converters. It reflects both the readiness of the drive system to operate at any given time and the efficiency of the frequency converter's utilization. Therefore, extracting availability indicators from frequency converters is essential for assessing their health status, as these indicators can clearly define the converter's operating condition.

[0034] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the availability index K of the frequency converter is... A_o The ratio of the running time to the standard working time within the standard working time of the frequency converter can be determined, as shown in formula (1).

[0035]

[0036] Among them, T N This represents the standard working time, for example, 1440 minutes; t run SA represents the operating time of the frequency converter within its standard operating time, in minutes; SA represents the system availability index K. A_o The unit is %.

[0037] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the system performance index K of the frequency converter is... P_o This indicates the control performance of the frequency converter and reflects the stability of the frequency converter system. It can usually be measured through indicators such as... Figure 2 The ripple pattern shown represents this. In the ripple, the curve represents the actual value, and the straight line represents the given value. In actual measured data, the actual value fluctuates around the given value, which can be represented by the ripple pattern. Figure 2 The area between the upper and lower lines is the fluctuation zone.

[0038] In practical applications, there are many indicators that can characterize system performance. The exemplary implementation of this application selects four sub-indicators to determine the system performance index K. P_o This includes: the relative fluctuation index K of the actual rotational speed. P1 Torque relative fluctuation index K P2 The absolute fluctuation index K of actual speed P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 System performance index K P_o It can be determined by the weighted sum of these four sub-indicators, as shown in formula (2).

[0039] K P_o =w P ·K P (2)

[0040] in, These are the weighting coefficients;

[0041] K P =[K p1 K P2 K P3 K P4 ] T For the above-mentioned system performance index K P_o The four relevant indicators;

[0042] The weighting coefficients satisfy the following relationship:

[0043]

[0044] Furthermore, the coefficients take values ​​in the range of [0 1].

[0045] In addition, the relative fluctuation index K of the above four actual speed values P1 Torque relative fluctuation index K P2 The absolute fluctuation index K of actual speed P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 It can be obtained based on either an absolute ripple performance evaluation algorithm or a relative ripple performance evaluation algorithm. Among them, the relative fluctuation index K of the actual rotational speed value... P1 and torque relative fluctuation index K P2 Based on the relative ripple performance judgment algorithm, the absolute fluctuation index K of the actual speed value is obtained. P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 Obtained based on the absolute ripple performance evaluation algorithm.

[0046] The absolute ripple performance evaluation algorithm and the relative ripple performance evaluation algorithm are explained in detail below:

[0047] Assume the ripple performance dataset is as follows:

[0048] Given a data set: s = {s i , i = 1…N}

[0049] Actual value data set: A = {a i , i = 1…N}

[0054] In the original data set {x i {x} max x min}={max(X) min(X)}

[0055] Step 2: Normalization formula and data set Y a ={y a_i , i = 1…N}:

[0056]

[0057] Where: Y a ={y a_i The dataset , i = 1…N} is called the normalized dataset, which is dimensionless data with a numerical range of

[01] .

[0060] Step 4: Standard Deviation Formula:

[0061]

[0062] Where: σ a : Absolutely stable operator, numerical range

[01] .

[0063] The algorithm for determining relative ripple performance is as follows:

[0064] Step 1: Relative to the given bias dataset Y r ={y r_i ,i=1…N}:

[0065]

[0066] Step 2: Average the deviation data:

[0067]

[0068] Step 3: Relative ripple performance assessment algorithm (standard deviation σ):

[0069]

[0070] Where: σ r : Relative stability operator, numerical range [0 1];

[0071] Based on the relative ripple performance judgment algorithm, the relative fluctuation index K of the actual speed value is obtained. P1 and torque relative fluctuation index K P2 The absolute fluctuation index K of the actual speed is obtained based on the absolute ripple performance judgment algorithm. P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 Then, these four indicators can be weighted to obtain the system performance indicator K. P_o Alright.

[0138] After obtaining the above 11 sub-indicators, the system quality index K can be determined based on the weight ratio coefficient of each sub-indicator. Q_o The weighting coefficients can be obtained from data analysis in the expert knowledge base or from experts' experience.

[0139] Step 102: Combine availability indicators, system performance indicators, and system quality indicators to conduct statistical analysis and determine the comprehensive performance indicators of the frequency converter.

[0140] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, after determining the availability index K... A_o System performance index K P_o and system quality index K Q_o Afterwards, statistical analysis can be performed on these three indicators. Specifically, a weighted average can be calculated using a linear proportion coefficient relationship.

[0141] K APQ =w·K APQ (18)

[0142] Where: w = [w1 w2 w3]: is the weighting coefficient, K APQ =[K A_O K P_O K Q_O ] T

[0143] The weighting coefficients satisfy the following relationship:

[0144] {w1+w2+w3=1 (19)

[0145] The specific weighting coefficient can be obtained from big data analysis in the expert knowledge base or from the experience value summarized by the experts based on their experience. It can reflect the actual operation of the equipment. The exemplary implementation of this application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0146] Step 103: When the comprehensive performance indicators meet the first health state conditions, the inverter's status is managed as a health state.

[0147] In the exemplary embodiment of this application, after obtaining the comprehensive performance index K... APQ Then, the health status of the frequency converter can be assessed based on the first health status conditions, and health status management can be implemented according to the assessment results.

[0148] In practical applications, the first health state condition can be determined based on the actual performance of the frequency converter. In the exemplary embodiment of this application, the first health state condition can be a threshold range (0.75, 1), where 0.75 ≤ K. APQ When the value is less than 1, the inverter is considered to be in a healthy state and can be managed according to the healthy state.

[0149] In practical applications, the threshold range can be further refined, as shown in Table 1 below:

[0150] Table 1

[0151]

[0152] As can be seen from Table 1, the threshold range (0.75, 1) corresponding to the first health state condition can be further refined into three intervals, when 0.9 ≤ K APQ When 0.8 < K, it indicates that the inverter's overall health is excellent, it is in a good state, and it can operate continuously; when 0.8 ≤ K APQ When K < 0.9, it indicates that the inverter's overall health is excellent, it is in good condition, and it can operate continuously; when 0.75 ≤ K APQ When the value is less than 0.8, it indicates that the overall health of the frequency converter is normal and it can be in normal operating condition.

[0153] Step 104: When the comprehensive performance indicators do not meet the first health state conditions, determine the state of the frequency converter based on availability indicators, system performance indicators, or system quality indicators, and perform state management on the frequency converter.

[0154] Further analysis of Table 1 shows that when the comprehensive performance index K... APQ It does not meet the first health state condition, that is, it is outside the threshold range (0.75, 1), i.e., K. APQ When the value is less than 0.75, the health of the frequency converter will deteriorate. At this time, it is necessary to identify the indicators that cause the frequency converter to deteriorate in order to perform status management of the frequency converter. Status management includes whether maintenance is required, which indicators to focus on for maintenance, and when to perform maintenance.

[0155] Therefore, in the exemplary embodiments of this application, it is necessary to determine the availability index K separately. A_o System performance index K P_o and system quality index K Q_o Do all indicators meet the conditions for the second health state? It should be noted that the conditions for the second health state may differ for different indicators. If not, i.e., availability indicator K... A_o System performance index K P_o Or system quality index KQ_o If the conditions for a second health state are not met, the availability index K needs to be determined. A_o System performance index K P_o Or system quality index K Q_o The system identifies fault indicators and performs status management on the frequency converter based on these indicators.

[0156] For availability metric K A_o Specifically, the threshold range for its second health state condition is (0.2, 1), as shown in Table 2:

[0157] Table 2

[0158]

[0159] As can be seen from Table 2, the availability index K A_o A value between 0.2 and 1 indicates that the frequency converter is in a usable state, and the overall performance index K... APQ Not meeting the first health state condition is not subject to availability index K. A_o Impact. However, when the availability metric K... A_o A value between 0 and 0.2 indicates that the inverter's availability is very low, the system is unstable, and the inverter needs repair, or the system performance index K needs to be adjusted. P_o and system quality index K Q_o An assessment is conducted to determine whether these two metrics are in a healthy state. At this point, the availability metric K... A_o These are fault indicators.

[0160] For system performance index K P_o Specifically, the threshold range for its second health state condition is (0.85, 1), as shown in Table 3:

[0161] Table 3

[0162]

[0163]

[0164] As can be seen from Table 3, the system performance index K P_o A value between 0.85 and 1 indicates that the inverter's system configuration is reasonable, the system installation conforms to specifications, the system performance is good, the system components are in good condition, and the load operating temperature meets design requirements. In other words, the comprehensive performance index K... APQ Does not meet the first health state condition and system performance index K P_o It's irrelevant; you can evaluate the system quality indicator K. Q_o .

[0165] However, when the system performance index K P_oA value less than 0.85 indicates potential issues such as improper system installation, problems with system components, or unstable load operation. The system performance metric K needs to be adjusted. P_o The evaluation is carried out on each of the sub-performance indicators in the system, that is, from determining the system performance indicator K. P_o The four sub-indicators are: K, the relative fluctuation index of actual speed value. P1 Torque relative fluctuation index K P2 The absolute fluctuation index K of actual speed P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 Each component is evaluated separately to determine the failure indicators; that is, the failure indicators can constitute the system performance index K. P_o Sub-indices.

[0166] The following uses the relative fluctuation index K of the actual speed value. P1 For example, the evaluation process will be explained, as shown in Table 4:

[0167] Table 4

[0168]

[0169]

[0170] Where, σ rn This is an indicator of relative speed fluctuation.

[0171] As can be seen from Table 4, when the actual speed value is relative to the fluctuation index K P1 When the values ​​are in the optimal, good, or acceptable range, it indicates that the actual speed value is relatively fluctuating relative to the index K. P1 This is not a fault indicator; the relative torque fluctuation indicator K needs to be considered. P2 The absolute fluctuation index K of actual speed P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 These three indicators are evaluated to determine the fault indicators.

[0172] However, when the actual speed value is relative to the fluctuation index K P1 When the condition is unfavorable or poor, it indicates that the actual speed value is relatively fluctuating relative to the index K. P1 These are fault indicators, requiring appropriate status management of the frequency converter, such as scheduling maintenance for power circuit components.

[0173] In practical applications, when the system performance index K P_o When it is less than 0.85, or in other words, when the system performance index K P_o If the conditions for the second health state are not met, the relative fluctuation index K of the actual speed value can be checked sequentially. P1 Torque relative fluctuation index K P2The absolute fluctuation index K of actual speed P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 These four sub-indicators are used for health assessment to avoid overlooking indicators that may lead to malfunctions, thereby improving the accuracy of health monitoring. Here, the torque relative fluctuation index K is used. P2 The absolute fluctuation index K of actual speed P3 and torque absolute waveform index K P4 The evaluation process for these three sub-indicators will not be detailed here; refer to the relative fluctuation index K of the actual speed value. P1 That's all.

[0174] In the exemplary embodiments of this application, for the system quality index K Q_o Specifically, the threshold range for its second health state condition is (0.85, 1), as shown in Table 5:

[0175] Table 5

[0176]

[0177] As can be seen from Table 5, the system quality index K Q_o A value between 0.85 and 1 indicates that the inverter's system configuration is reasonable, the system installation conforms to specifications, the system operates well, the system components are in good condition, and the load operation is stable and meets design requirements. In other words, the comprehensive performance index K... APQ Does not meet the first health state condition and system quality index K Q_o It's irrelevant; you can evaluate other indicators.

[0178] However, when the system quality index K Q_o A value less than 0.85 indicates potential issues such as improper system installation, poor system performance, problems with system components, or unstable load operation. In such cases, the system quality indicator K needs to be adjusted. Q_o The evaluation is carried out on each of the sub-performance indicators, which is to determine the system quality indicator K. Q_o The inverter is evaluated using 11 sub-indicators to determine the fault indicators. Then, condition management is performed on the inverter based on these fault indicators.

[0179] The following uses the inverter failure rate index K as an example. Q1 For example, the evaluation process will be explained, as shown in Table 6:

[0180] Table 6

[0181]

[0182] As can be seen from Table 6, when the inverter failure rate index K... Q1 When the inverter is in a good, satisfactory, or acceptable state, it indicates that the inverter failure rate index K is...Q1 If it is not a fault indicator, we can continue to evaluate the other 10 sub-indicators to determine the fault indicator.

[0183] However, when the inverter failure rate index K Q1 When the inverter is in a poor or bad state, it indicates that the inverter failure rate index K is in a bad or bad state. Q1 These are fault indicators, requiring appropriate status management of the frequency converter. For example, if a component is in an abnormal state, the device needs to be shut down for maintenance.

[0184] In practical applications, when the system quality index K Q_o When it is less than 0.85, or in other words, when the system quality index K Q_o If the conditions for the second health state are not met, the above-mentioned system quality indicators K can be sequentially applied. Q_o Health assessments are performed on 11 sub-indicators to avoid overlooking potential malfunctions and improve the accuracy of health monitoring. The assessment process for the remaining 10 sub-indicators is not detailed here; refer to the inverter failure rate indicator K. Q1 That's all.

[0185] The inverter status management method provided in the exemplary embodiments of this application first determines the comprehensive performance indicators of the inverter and evaluates the health status of the inverter based on the comprehensive performance indicators to facilitate status management of the inverter. When the comprehensive performance indicators do not meet the first health status condition, the availability indicators, system performance indicators, and system quality indicators of the determined comprehensive performance indicators are evaluated for health status. When the availability indicators, system performance indicators, or system quality indicators do not meet the second health status condition, the sub-indicators of the determined three indicators are evaluated for health status, thereby identifying the fault indicators that do not meet the health status conditions. Based on the fault indicators, the inverter is then managed for status, which can estimate the precise fault location, providing a basis for inverter status management and improving the accuracy and efficiency of inverter status management.
