[0002] With the development of converter stations, substations, ultra-high voltage direct current transmission projects, and the grid connection of new energy power generation such as wind and solar power, a large number of nonlinear devices such as switching devices and semiconductor components are being used in power systems. While these devices improve the flexibility and efficiency of power grid operation and control, they inevitably inject a large number of harmonic sources into the power system. The large amount of harmonic injection in the power grid has a significant impact on the vibration characteristics of traditional transformers. The influence of harmonics on vibration characteristics and the influence of faults on vibration characteristics are often overlapping and difficult to distinguish.

Based on the similarity between the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to the multiple harmonic interference vibration signals, the processing device determines whether the transformer to be analyzed has a fault. If the similarity is high, it indicates that the transformer has relatively stable vibration characteristics in multiple periods, and is likely not faulty. Conversely, if the similarity is low, it indicates that the transformer's vibration is unstable in multiple periods, which is usually caused by a fault, and therefore, the transformer can be considered faulty. Therefore, this application can first determine whether a transformer is subject to harmonic interference, and can perform fault analysis on transformers subject to harmonic interference, thereby achieving accurate fault diagnosis of transformers.

[0063] Figure 5 This is a structural block diagram of a fault analysis device provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0064] The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0065] Understandably, this method can be applied to processing devices capable of fault analysis, such as terminal devices or servers with fault analysis functions. This method can be executed independently by a terminal device or server, or it can be applied in network scenarios where the terminal device and server communicate, executing in cooperation. The terminal device can be a computer, mobile phone, or similar device. The server can be an application server or a web server; in actual deployment, this server can be a standalone server or a cluster server.

[0066] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flowchart of a fault analysis method provided in this application embodiment, the method including:

[0067] S101: Obtain the set of vibration signals to be analyzed.

[0068] The set of vibration signals to be analyzed includes vibration signals of the transformer to be analyzed corresponding to multiple detection periods. The vibration signals to be analyzed are generated based on the vibration of the transformer to be analyzed.

[0069] S102: Take multiple vibration signals to be analyzed as target vibration signals to be analyzed, and determine the number of energy bands corresponding to the target vibration signals to be analyzed.

[0070] The purpose of using multiple vibration signals to be analyzed as target vibration signals is to achieve traversal analysis of multiple vibration signals to be analyzed. The energy band refers to the concentrated distribution band of the vibration signal on the frequency spectrum.

[0071] S103: In response to the number of energy bands being greater than a preset threshold, the target vibration signal to be analyzed is determined to be a harmonic interference vibration signal.

[0072] Research has shown that when a transformer is not subject to harmonic interference, the number of energy bands in the transformer's vibration signal spectrum is relatively uniform, typically not exceeding a preset threshold (which can be set to 3). Even in the event of a fault, energy bands will only appear in the high-frequency range, and the total number of energy bands will still not exceed the preset threshold. However, when a transformer is subject to harmonic interference, the number of energy bands increases due to the increase in the vibration excitation source. Therefore, processing equipment can analyze whether the transformer is subject to harmonic interference based on the number of energy bands.

[0073] If the number of energy bands exceeds the preset threshold, it indicates that more excitation sources have appeared to excite the transformer to vibrate compared to the normal operating state. Therefore, it can be determined that the transformer to be analyzed is subjected to harmonic interference. The processing equipment can identify the target vibration signal to be analyzed as a harmonic interference vibration signal, that is, a vibration signal with harmonic interference.

[0074] S104: Determine the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to multiple harmonic interference vibration signals among multiple vibration signals to be analyzed.

[0075] The harmonic characteristic frequency is used to reflect the vibration characteristics of the transformer under harmonic interference, that is, the harmonic characteristic frequency can reflect the vibration characteristics of the transformer vibration generated by the harmonic excitation source.

[0076] S105: Determine whether the transformer to be analyzed has a fault based on the similarity between the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to multiple harmonic interference vibration signals.

[0077] It is understandable that if a transformer is not faulty, its vibration characteristics should be relatively consistent, and therefore the vibration features exhibited across multiple time periods should also be relatively consistent. However, when a transformer is faulty, due to the instability of its own vibration characteristics, the vibration characteristics generated at different time periods after a harmonic excitation source is applied to the transformer will vary significantly. Based on this, the processing equipment can determine whether the transformer under analysis is faulty based on the similarity of the harmonic interference vibration signals at different time periods. That is, if the similarity is high, it indicates that the transformer still has relatively consistent vibration characteristics under harmonic interference, and the probability of fault is low; if the similarity is low, it indicates that the transformer's vibration characteristics fluctuate greatly under harmonic interference, and therefore the probability of fault is high. Thus, the processing equipment can analyze whether the transformer under analysis is faulty based on similarity.

[0078] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this application provides a fault analysis method. First, a set of vibration signals to be analyzed is obtained, including vibration signals of the transformer to be analyzed corresponding to different detection periods. Then, these multiple vibration signals are used as target vibration signals to be analyzed, and the number of energy bands corresponding to the target vibration signals is determined. The number of energy bands indicates whether the transformer is subject to harmonic interference. If the number of energy bands exceeds a preset threshold, the processing device can determine that the transformer has received harmonic interference, thus identifying the target vibration signal as a harmonic interference vibration signal. Then, the processing device can determine the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to the multiple harmonic interference vibration signals among the multiple vibration signals to be analyzed. These harmonic characteristic frequencies reflect the vibration characteristics of the transformer under harmonic interference. Based on the similarity between the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to the multiple harmonic interference vibration signals, the processing device determines whether the transformer to be analyzed has a fault. If the similarity is high, it indicates that the transformer has relatively stable vibration characteristics in multiple periods, and is likely not faulty. Conversely, if the similarity is low, it indicates that the transformer's vibration is unstable in multiple periods, which is usually caused by a fault, and therefore, the transformer can be considered faulty. Therefore, this application can first determine whether a transformer is subject to harmonic interference, and can perform fault analysis on transformers subject to harmonic interference, thereby achieving accurate fault diagnosis of transformers.

[0079] In one possible implementation, when determining whether the transformer to be analyzed has a fault based on the similarity between the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to the plurality of harmonic interference vibration signals, the processing device can first determine the high-frequency vibration distribution vector corresponding to the plurality of harmonic interference vibration signals, which can reflect the vibration characteristics of the transformer to be analyzed.

[0080] Then, the processing device can determine the consistency feature value of multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors corresponding to the multiple harmonic interference vibration signals. The consistency feature value is used to reflect the similarity between the multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors. The consistency feature value is the number of distribution center points of the multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors. That is, if the similarity between the multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors is high, then there is usually only one distribution center point, and the consistency feature value is 1. If the similarity between the multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors is low, then multiple distribution center points will be generated, and the consistency feature value is a number greater than 1.

[0081] Therefore, if the consistency feature value is 1, the processing device can determine that the similarity between multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors is high, thereby determining that the transformer to be analyzed has not failed; if the consistency feature value is not 1, the processing device can determine that the similarity between multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors is low, thereby determining that the transformer to be analyzed has failed.

[0082] In one possible implementation, the processing device can determine the number of energy bands corresponding to the target vibration signal to be analyzed in the following way: The processing device can first determine the discrete spectrum sequence corresponding to the target vibration signal to be analyzed, and then perform smoothing filtering on the discrete spectrum sequence to construct a smooth spectrum sequence.

[0083] The processing device can determine the average smooth spectrum corresponding to the target vibration signal to be analyzed based on the smooth spectrum sequence, and then determine the number of energy bands in the average smooth spectrum as the number of energy bands corresponding to the target vibration signal to be analyzed.

[0084] In one possible implementation, the processing device can determine the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to multiple harmonic interference vibration signals among the multiple vibration signals to be analyzed in the following way. It is understood that these harmonic characteristic frequencies are used to reflect the vibration characteristics of the transformer under harmonic interference; therefore, the stronger the harmonic excitation, the more obvious the vibration characteristics reflected by the harmonic characteristic frequencies. Thus, the processing device can determine the harmonic characteristic frequencies based on the energy generated by a stronger excitation source.

[0085] The processing device can use the multiple harmonic interference vibration signals as target harmonic interference vibration signals, determine the average smooth spectrum corresponding to the target harmonic interference vibration signals, and then determine the effective values ​​corresponding to multiple energy bands in the average smooth spectrum. These effective values ​​are used to identify the energy intensity of the excitation source that causes the energy bands to form. The processing device can then determine the frequency corresponding to the energy band with the highest effective value as the harmonic frequency characteristic corresponding to the target harmonic interference vibration signal.

[0086] Specifically, in one possible implementation, when determining the effective value corresponding to each energy band, the processing device can use the multiple energy bands as target energy bands, then determine multiple local peak points included in the target energy bands, and then determine the effective value corresponding to the target energy bands based on the difference between the frequencies corresponding to the multiple local peak points and a preset frequency, as well as the peak values ​​corresponding to the multiple local peak points. The preset frequency is the frequency corresponding to the energy bands not generated by harmonics. The difference between the frequency and the preset frequency reflects the magnitude of the excitation source corresponding to the energy band.

[0087] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application, the fault analysis method provided in the embodiments of this application will be introduced next in conjunction with a practical application scenario.

[0088] See Figure 2 The fault analysis method may include the following steps:

[0089] Step (1): The processing equipment can arrange multiple vibration sensors on the surface of the transformer tank directly opposite the winding position, and collect the vibration signals of each vibration sensor under normal energized operation conditions for a certain length at regular intervals. For each vibration sensor, calculate the Fourier transform of each vibration sampling sample of the vibration sensor within a day, and extract the amplitude of the 50Hz and its harmonic vibrations to construct a discrete spectrum sequence. Then, average the spectrum sequences of all measurement points to obtain the average discrete spectrum sequence.

[0090] Step (2): The processing device can perform smoothing filtering on the discrete spectrum sequence of vibration at each measuring point, construct a smooth spectrum sequence, and average the smooth spectrum sequences of vibration at each measuring point to obtain the average smooth spectrum.

[0091] Step (3): The processing device can analyze the peak value of the average smooth spectrum and identify all effective energy bands in the smooth spectrum. If the number of effective energy bands in the average smooth spectrum is less than or equal to 3, it can be determined that the harmonic interference level of the current excitation source is close to 0. When the number of effective energy bands in the average smooth spectrum is greater than 3, it can be determined that the current excitation source may be affected by harmonics.

[0092] Step (4): The processing device can average and smooth the discrete spectrum of all samples affected by harmonics at all measurement points to obtain the average smooth spectrum, extract the effective energy band peak frequency and amplitude of all smooth spectrum, and perform effectiveness scoring, and select the frequency with the highest effectiveness score as the harmonic characteristic frequency.

[0093] Step (5): For each vibration sample affected by harmonics from a vibration sensor, extract the amplitude of the high-frequency characteristic frequency of the harmonics and construct a high-frequency vibration distribution vector;

[0094] Step (6): Construct a spatiotemporal matrix of vibration distribution vector for continuous monitoring for 24 hours, extract high-frequency distribution consistency features, and then evaluate the transformer operating status based on these features.

[0095] Furthermore, the number of vibration sensors arranged in step (1) can be set to K. The vibration signal of each vibration sensor and the current signal of the power transformer are collected once every Δt time interval within a day. The sampling time is T seconds, the sampling frequency is f, N is a natural number greater than 1, Δt should be greater than 1 minute, and T should be greater than 0.02 seconds.

[0096] Furthermore, the specific implementation of step (1) is as follows:

[0097] A1. Take one day's worth of data and divide it into multiple samples. Each sample includes vibration signals v from various vibration sensors within the same sampling time period. m,k =[v m,k (0),v m,k (1 / f),…,v m,k (T)];

[0098] Where: vm,1(t) is the signal value of the vibration signal of the first vibration sensor in the m-th sample at time t, vm,K(x) is the signal value of the vibration signal of the K-th vibration sensor in the m-th sample at time t, t=0,1 / f,2*1 / f,...,T, 0 is the sampling start time of the m-th sample, m is a natural number and 1≤m≤M, M is the number of samples;

[0099] A2. Calculate v m,n N-point Discrete Fourier Transform V m,n and I m :

[0100] in:

[0101] A3. Finding V m,n The 50Hz frequency and its harmonics components:

[0102]

[0103] V m,n,50l =V m,n (k l )

[0104] Where k l =round(50 / f*N*l);

[0105] A4. Construct a discrete spectral sequence of 50Hz and its harmonics.

[0106] V m,n,50 =[V m,n,50 V m,n,100 … V m,n,3000 ]

[0107] Furthermore, the specific implementation of step (2) is as follows:

[0108] A1. Perform local scatter plot smoothing (LOESS) on the discrete spectral sequence of vibration at each measuring point to obtain a smoothed spectral sequence:

[0109]

[0110] Where smooth() represents smoothing;

[0111] A2. Then average the smoothed spectral sequences of all measurement points to obtain the average smoothed spectral sequence:

[0112]

[0113] Where N is the number of vibration sensors.

[0114] Furthermore, the specific implementation of step (3) is as follows:

[0115] A1. Traverse the average smoothed spectral sequence to find all effective local peaks. One of the following conditions must be met:

[0116] Condition one:

[0117] or

[0118] Condition two:

[0119] and and

[0120] Where max() means to retrieve the maximum value in the sequence;

[0121] A2. Count the number of effective local peaks, Num.

[0122] A3. If the number of effective energy bands Num in the average smooth spectrum is less than or equal to 3, then the harmonic interference level of the current excitation source can be determined to be close to 0.

[0123] A4. When the number of effective energy bands Num in the average smooth spectrum is greater than 3, it is determined that the current excitation source may be affected by harmonics.

[0124] Furthermore, the specific implementation method of step (4) is as follows: Figure 3 As shown:

[0125] A1. Traverse the 24-hour vibration samples to find all vibration samples affected by harmonics, and construct the total average discrete spectrum sequence of 50Hz and its harmonic components.

[0126]

[0127] Where m′ represents the sample number affected by harmonics, and M′ represents the total number of samples affected by harmonics.

[0128] A2. Perform local scatter smoothing on the total average discrete spectrum sequence to obtain the total average smoothed spectrum sequence:

[0129]

[0130] A3. Traverse the overall average smoothed spectrum sequence to find all effective local peaks, and denote the effective local peaks as p. i (f i ), where i represents the i-th peak point, f i This indicates the frequency of the i-th peak.

[0131] A4. Construct a validity score for all local peak frequencies:

[0132]

[0133] A5. Select the frequency with the highest validity score as the harmonic characteristic frequency:

[0134]

[0135] Furthermore, the specific implementation of step (5) is as follows:

[0136] A1. For each vibration signal sample from a vibration sensor affected by harmonics, extract the amplitude of the high-frequency characteristic harmonics:

[0137]

[0138] in Let m′ be the vibration amplitude of the nth vibration sensor at the characteristic frequency of the harmonic, which is the sample affected by the harmonic.

[0139] A2. Construct the high-frequency vibration distribution vector;

[0140] VHf m′ =[VHf m′,1 ,VHf m′,2 ,…,VHf m′,N ]

[0141] Furthermore, the specific implementation of step (6) is as follows: Figure 4 As shown:

[0142] A1. Regarding VHf m′ Zero-mean normalization was performed to construct the spatiotemporal matrix of the vibration distribution vector after 24 hours of continuous monitoring.

[0143]

[0144] in, Represents the normalized VHf m′ .

[0145] A2. Then calculate the covariance matrix corresponding to H, and then decompose the matrix using EVD or SVD.

[0146]

[0147] In this matrix U, each column represents an eigenvector, Λ = diag{λ1,λ2,...,λ M'} contains all eigenvalues, and λ1≥λ2≥…≥λ M' .

[0148] A3. Construct consistency features to characterize the stability of the transformer's mechanical structure under harmonic influence:

[0149]

[0150] When this eigenvalue is close to 1, it indicates that the mechanical structure remains stable and unchanged under high-frequency excitation. When the internal mechanical structure of the transformer changes, such as when the windings deform, the uniformity of the high-frequency vibration distribution deteriorates, and the eigenvalue tends to 0.

[0151] Based on the fault analysis method provided in the above embodiments, this application also provides a fault analysis device, see [link to previous document]. Figure 5 , Figure 5 This application provides a structural block diagram of a fault analysis device 500, which includes an acquisition unit 501, a first determination unit 502, a second determination unit 503, a third determination unit 504, and a fourth determination unit 505.

[0152] The acquisition unit 501 is used to acquire a set of vibration signals to be analyzed, which includes vibration signals to be analyzed corresponding to the transformer to be analyzed in multiple detection periods.

[0153] The first determining unit 502 is used to take multiple vibration signals to be analyzed as target vibration signals to be analyzed, and determine the number of energy bands corresponding to the target vibration signals to be analyzed.

[0154] The second determining unit 503 is used to determine the target vibration signal to be analyzed as a harmonic interference vibration signal in response to the number of energy bands being greater than a preset threshold.

[0155] The third determining unit 504 is used to determine the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to the multiple harmonic interference vibration signals among the multiple vibration signals to be analyzed. The harmonic characteristic frequencies are used to reflect the vibration characteristics of the transformer to be analyzed under harmonic interference.

[0156] The fourth determining unit 505 is used to determine whether the transformer to be analyzed has a fault based on the similarity between the harmonic characteristic frequencies corresponding to the plurality of harmonic interference vibration signals.

[0157] In one possible implementation, the fourth determining unit 505 is specifically used for:

[0158] Determine the high-frequency vibration distribution vectors corresponding to the plurality of harmonic interference vibration signals;

[0159] Determine the consistency feature value of multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors corresponding to the multiple harmonic interference vibration signals. The consistency feature value is used to reflect the similarity between the multiple high-frequency vibration distribution vectors.
