Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power transformer testing technology, specifically to an online monitoring device for transformer oil particles based on spectral and conductivity detection. Background Technology

[0002] During operation, the insulating oil of power transformers becomes contaminated with various impurities. These impurities include tiny particles, moisture, gases, and other contaminants, all of which negatively impact the performance of the insulating oil. Particulate matter, in particular, significantly affects the transformer's insulation performance, reducing its withstand voltage level and increasing the risk of partial discharge, thus threatening the safe and stable operation of the transformer. The importance of keeping the insulating oil clean has long been recognized, but existing testing methods have many limitations.

[0003] Traditional testing methods typically rely on periodic sampling and laboratory analysis. This approach is not only complex and inefficient, but also fails to reflect the real-time condition of transformer oil. In practical applications, the operating environment of transformers is complex and variable, and the impurity content in the oil may change significantly within a short period. Failure to detect and address these changes in a timely manner can lead to transformer failures or even power system safety accidents.

[0004] Existing methods for detecting impurities in transformer oil primarily rely on offline detection technology, typically requiring multiple steps such as sampling, transportation, and laboratory analysis—a cumbersome and time-consuming process. Because it's offline, it struggles to reflect changes in impurities in the transformer oil in a timely manner, failing to meet the requirements for real-time monitoring of transformer operating status. Furthermore, existing detection equipment is usually bulky, expensive, and has high maintenance costs, making it unsuitable for field applications. It also requires professional operation, increasing labor costs and operational risks. Therefore, developing a device capable of real-time online detection of impurities in transformer oil is crucial. Such a device should possess high sensitivity and accuracy, continuously monitoring the state of the insulating oil without shutting down the transformer, and promptly detecting and warning of potential faults. This would not only improve the operational reliability of the transformer but also extend its service life and reduce maintenance and repair costs.

[0005] By using real-time online monitoring devices, the safety and efficiency of transformer operation will be significantly improved. The application of this technology will have a profound impact on the stable operation of the power system and represents an important direction for the development of modern power equipment monitoring technology. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide an online particle monitoring device for transformer oil, which can realize real-time detection of different impurity particles in the oil and has the advantages of low maintenance cost and simple operation.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an online monitoring device for transformer oil particles based on spectral and conductivity detection, the device comprising: a sampling module, a sensor module, an analysis and processing unit, and a communication module.

[0008] The sampling module achieves continuous oil sample collection through a micro-pump and adjustable flow valve, providing a stable and continuous supply of oil samples. The sensor module includes a spectral sensor and a conductivity sensor, used to detect the optical and electrical properties of the oil sample. Through multi-angle and multi-index detection methods, the accuracy and comprehensiveness of the detection are improved. The spectral sensor detects the optical properties of the oil sample, while the conductivity sensor monitors changes in the oil sample's conductivity and detects the electrical properties of different impurities. The analysis and processing unit integrates a microprocessor, enabling rapid processing and analysis of sensor data to accurately determine the type and concentration of impurities in the oil sample. The communication module uses wireless transmission technology to send the processed data to the monitoring center in real time, ensuring the real-time performance and reliability of data transmission.

[0009] Furthermore, the integrated microprocessor includes an impurity type and concentration discrimination method, which includes a discrimination calculation model. The discrimination calculation model includes a classification module and a concentration fitting module. The classification module is used to determine the type of impurity in the oil sample, and the concentration fitting module is used to calculate the impurity concentration corresponding to the determined impurity type, thereby outputting the impurity type and concentration.

[0010] The discriminant calculation model includes an offline training phase and an online detection phase.

[0011] Offline training phase: Collect a number of offline data, including spectral data obtained by detecting different impurities in transformer oil through a spectral sensor and conductivity data obtained by detecting transformer oil under different impurity concentration conditions through a conductivity sensor. Label the spectral data and conductivity data of each impurity.

[0012] Multiple linear regression and principal component analysis algorithms were used to process the spectral data to calculate the concentration of each different impurity, denoted as impurity concentration one. Gradient descent was used to process the conductivity data to calculate the concentration of each different impurity, denoted as impurity concentration two. Then, impurity concentration one and impurity concentration two for each impurity were fused to obtain the final concentration for each impurity. Several final concentrations for each impurity were used as training set one, and the types of impurities in training set one were used as labels for the training samples of each type.

[0013] Use several conductivity data for each impurity as training set two, and use the actual concentration of each impurity in training set two as the label of the corresponding concentration training sample.

The concentration fitting module is trained using the second training set. When the loss no longer decreases, the trained concentration fitting module is obtained. After the classification module and concentration fitting module are trained, the trained discriminant calculation model is obtained.

[0015] Online detection phase: Data collected by spectral and conductivity sensors is input into the trained discrimination calculation model, which outputs the type and concentration of different particles.

[0016] Furthermore, during the offline training phase, the classification module uses the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm to construct a hyperplane to separate impurity data of different categories and minimize the hinge loss function. The concentration fitting module employs a regression analysis algorithm, optimizing model parameters through least squares or gradient descent to ensure accurate fitting of the relationship between conductivity data and impurity concentration.

[0017] The training samples are input into the classification module. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm separates the data of different categories by constructing a hyperplane, which is represented as:

[0030]

[0031] Where m is the total number of concentration training samples in training set two. Let j be the actual impurity concentration of the j-th concentration training sample. These are the predicted values ​​from the concentration fitting module.

[0032] During training, the gradient descent algorithm is used to optimize the parameters of the classification module and the concentration fitting module, updating the SVM weight vector and the coefficients of the regression analysis algorithm, as shown in the following formula:

[0033]

[0034] Where θ represents the model parameters, which are the weight vector in SVM and the regression coefficients in regression analysis algorithms; α is the learning rate. It is the gradient of the loss function with respect to the parameters.

[0035] Furthermore, during the offline training phase, the method for processing the spectral data using multiple linear regression and principal component analysis algorithms to calculate different impurity concentrations is as follows:

[0036] D concentration2 =X·β+ε1 (7)

[0037] Among them, D concentration1 Let ε be the impurity concentration, X be the spectral data obtained from the spectral sensor, β be the regression coefficient, and ε1 be the error term.

[0038] Furthermore, during the offline training phase, the gradient descent algorithm is used to process the conductivity data to calculate the concentrations of different impurities. The method is as follows:

[0039] The concentration fitting model uses a linear regression algorithm to fit the relationship between conductivity data and impurity concentration:

[0040] D concentration2 =β0 + β1·x1 + β2·x2 + ... + β n ·x n (8)

[0041] Among them, D concentration2 Let the impurity concentrations be two, x1, x2, ..., x n The conductivity data are obtained from the conductivity sensor, β0,β1,…,βn These are the regression coefficients, which are obtained during the offline training phase using the least squares method or gradient descent algorithm.

[0042] Furthermore, during the offline training phase, the concentration-D obtained from the spectral sensor data of different impurities is calculated. concentration1 Concentration 2D calculated from conductivity sensor data concentration2 The mixture is then fused to obtain the final concentration of each impurity. The fusion formula is as follows:

[0043] D combined =α·D concentration1 +(1-α)·D concentration2 (9)

[0044] Among them, D combined This represents the final concentration of each impurity, and α is the fusion weight.

The miniature pump has a flow rate range of 0.1-1L / min and can continuously and stably extract oil samples. The combined use of the miniature pump MP-100 and the adjustable flow valve FV-200 ensures the stability and continuous collection of oil samples, providing high-quality samples for subsequent sensor detection.

[0067] In specific implementation, the sensor module includes a SP-300 spectral sensor and an EC-100 conductivity sensor. The spectral sensor has a wavelength range of 200-800 nm. The SP-300 spectral sensor is used to detect the spectral characteristics of the oil sample. By analyzing the spectral response of the oil sample, the SP-300 spectral sensor can identify different types of impurities and provide detailed optical detection data. The EC-100 conductivity sensor is used to detect changes in the conductivity of the oil sample.

The conductivity sensor has a measurement range of 0-200 μS / cm and monitors changes in the conductivity of the oil sample.

[0068] In practical implementation, the analysis and processing unit integrates a microprocessor MCU-500 and an impurity type and concentration discrimination method to process sensor data and determine the type and concentration of impurities in the oil sample.

The WT-400 transmits the impurity types and concentrations obtained from the analysis and processing unit to the monitoring center in real time. The WT-400 wireless transmission module supports multiple communication methods, ensuring real-time data transmission and reliable reception, enabling the monitoring center to promptly grasp the transformer's operating status.

[0070] Specifically, the integrated microprocessor includes an impurity type and concentration discrimination method, which includes a discrimination calculation model. The discrimination calculation model includes a classification module and a concentration fitting module. The classification module is used to determine the type of impurity in the oil sample, and the concentration fitting module is used to calculate the impurity concentration corresponding to the determined impurity type, thereby outputting the impurity type and concentration.

[0071] The discrimination calculation model includes an offline training phase and an online detection phase;

[0072] Offline training phase: Collect a number of offline data, including spectral data obtained by detecting different impurities in transformer oil through a spectral sensor and conductivity data obtained by detecting transformer oil under different impurity concentration conditions through a conductivity sensor. Label the spectral data and conductivity data of each impurity.

[0073] Multiple linear regression and principal component analysis algorithms were used to process the spectral data to calculate the concentration of each different impurity, denoted as impurity concentration one. Gradient descent was used to process the conductivity data to calculate the concentration of each different impurity, denoted as impurity concentration two. Then, impurity concentration one and impurity concentration two for each impurity were fused to obtain the final concentration for each impurity. Several final concentrations for each impurity were used as training set one, and the types of impurities in training set one were used as labels for the training samples of each type.

[0074] Use several conductivity data for each impurity as training set two, and use the actual concentration of each impurity in training set two as the label of the corresponding concentration training sample.

[0075] The classification module is trained using the first training set. When the loss no longer decreases, the trained classification module is obtained. The concentration fitting module is trained using the second training set. When the loss no longer decreases, the trained concentration fitting module is obtained. After the classification module and concentration fitting module are trained, the trained discriminant calculation model is obtained.

[0076] Online detection phase: Data collected by spectral and conductivity sensors is input into the trained discrimination calculation model, which outputs the type and concentration of different particles.

[0077] Specifically, during the model training phase, a large amount of offline data needs to be collected first. This training data includes spectral and conductivity data detected by spectral and conductivity sensors, covering different concentrations of common impurities in transformer oil, and corresponding to known impurity types and their concentration labels.

[0078] During the offline training phase, the classification module uses the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm to construct a hyperplane to separate impurity data of different categories and minimize the hinge loss function. The concentration fitting module employs a regression analysis algorithm, optimizing model parameters through least squares or gradient descent to ensure accurate fitting of the relationship between conductivity data and impurity concentration.

[0079] The training samples are input into the classification module. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm separates the data of different categories by constructing a hyperplane, which is represented as:

[0080] w·x+b=0 (1)

[0081] Where w is the normal vector, b is the bias term, and x is the input data.

[0082] SVM uses the hinge loss function, defined as:

[0083]

[0084] in It is the training sample of the i-th class in training set 1. The predicted value, This represents the category label of the i-th category training sample.

[0085] The goal of training the classification module is to minimize the following loss function:

[0086]

[0087] Here, C is the regularization parameter, used to control the complexity of the classification module and its fit to the training set, and n represents the number of training samples of each class in the training set. In this way, SVM can learn the optimal classification boundary for different types of impurities.

[0088] The concentration fitting module uses a regression analysis algorithm to calculate the concentration of each impurity:

[0089]

[0090] Where Y is the concentration of each impurity. Let βj be the j-th training sample with concentration in training set 2, where β0, β1, ..., βj. m These are the regression coefficients, and ε is the error term. To determine the optimal model parameters β0, β1, ..., β... m The model is trained using the least squares method or gradient descent method.

[0091] The goal of training the concentration fitting module is to minimize the loss function J(θ): J(θ) uses the mean squared error (MSE) as the loss function.

[0092]

[0093] Where m is the total number of concentration training samples in training set two. Let j be the actual impurity concentration of the j-th concentration training sample. These are the predicted values ​​from the concentration fitting module.

[0094] After multiple iterations, the model finally determined the optimal parameters β0,β1,…,β mAt this point, the model can accurately fit the relationship between conductivity and impurity concentration. The final regression analysis model can be applied to online monitoring devices, predicting the concentration of each impurity in transformer oil by inputting real-time conductivity data. This model accurately reflects the relationship between conductivity and impurity concentration, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of online detection of particulate matter in transformer oil.

[0095] During training, the gradient descent algorithm is used to optimize the parameters of the classification module and the concentration fitting module, updating the SVM weight vector and the coefficients of the regression analysis algorithm, as shown in the following formula:

[0096]

[0097] Where θ represents the model parameters, which are the weight vector in SVM and the regression coefficients in regression analysis algorithms; α is the learning rate. It is the gradient of the loss function with respect to the parameters.

[0098] In the structure of the discriminant calculation model, the classification model and the concentration fitting model work closely together. The classification model determines the type of impurities in the oil sample based on the input sensor data and outputs specific impurity category labels, which serve as the basis for subsequent concentration calculations. After receiving the impurity type label, the concentration fitting model uses spectral and conductivity data to accurately calculate the concentration of the corresponding impurity. The organic combination of these two models constitutes the core function of the discriminant calculation model, enabling it to comprehensively output the type and concentration of impurities.

[0099] After training, the entire discriminant calculation model is validated and optimized to ensure its accuracy and robustness, and finally, the model is written into the microprocessor. In practical applications, the microprocessor relies on the discriminant calculation model to achieve real-time monitoring and analysis of impurities in transformer oil, accurately determine the types of impurities in the oil, and precisely calculate their concentrations, thereby providing reliable data support for transformer condition monitoring and maintenance.

[0100] Specifically, during the offline training phase, the method for processing spectral data using multiple linear regression and principal component analysis algorithms to calculate different impurity concentrations is as follows:

[0101] D concentration2 =X·β+ε1 (7)

[0102] Among them, D concentration1 Let ε be the impurity concentration, X be the spectral data obtained from the spectral sensor, β be the regression coefficient, and ε1 be the error term.

[0103] Specifically, during the offline training phase, the gradient descent algorithm is used to process the conductivity data to calculate the concentrations of different impurities. The method is as follows:

[0104] The concentration fitting model uses a linear regression algorithm to fit the relationship between conductivity data and impurity concentration:

[0105] D concentration2 =β0 + β1·x1 + β2·x2 + ... + β n ·x n (8)

[0106] Among them, D concentration2 Let the impurity concentrations be two, x1, x2, ..., x n The conductivity data are obtained from the conductivity sensor, β0,β1,…,β n These are the regression coefficients, which are obtained during the offline training phase using the least squares method or gradient descent algorithm.

[0107] Specifically, during the offline training phase, the concentration-D obtained from the spectral sensor data of different impurities is calculated. concentration1 Concentration 2D calculated from conductivity sensor data concentration2 The mixture is then fused to obtain the final concentration of each impurity. The fusion formula is as follows:

[0108] D combined =α·D concentration1 +(1-α)·D concentration2 (9)

[0109] Among them, D combined This represents the final concentration of each impurity, and α is the fusion weight, the specific value of which can be adjusted according to the accuracy and characteristics of different sensors.

[0110] This invention also provides a method for using an online monitoring device for transformer oil particles based on spectral and conductivity detection, comprising:

[0111] Step 1: Install and connect components

[0112] First, the sampling module (a miniature pump of model MP-100 and an adjustable flow valve of model FV-200) was installed at the sampling port of the transformer oil tank, ensuring a secure and leak-free connection. Then, the sensor modules (a spectral sensor of model SP-300 and a conductivity sensor of model EC-100) were connected to the output of the sampling module, along with the analysis and processing unit (microprocessor MCU-500) and the communication module (model WT-400), ensuring a complete system connection. Preferably, all connecting parts are made of oil-resistant materials to prevent leakage and contamination.

[0113] Step 2: Start the equipment and collect oil samples

[0114] The micro pump (MP-100) is started, preferably with the flow rate set at 0.5 L / min. The flow rate is precisely controlled by an adjustable flow valve (FV-200) to ensure the stability and continuity of the oil sample. The oil sample is pumped from the sampling module to the sensor module. Preferably, a filter screen is used to filter the oil sample to prevent particles from clogging the pipeline.

[0115] Step 3: Sensor Module Testing

[0116] Before initiating detection, initialize the spectral sensor (model: SP-300) and conductivity sensor (model: EC-100) to ensure they are operating at their optimal condition. Preferably, calibrate the sensors using a known standard oil sample and check the accuracy of the sensor response.

[0117] After system startup, the sensor module continuously monitors the oil sample, and the analysis and processing unit (model: MCU-500) processes the data in real time to generate an accurate detection report. Preferably, in the offline stage, the spectral sensor performs optical detection on the oil sample within the wavelength range of 200-800nm, and uses multiple linear regression and principal component analysis algorithms to process the spectral data to calculate the concentration of each different impurity, denoted as impurity concentration one. The conductivity sensor measures the conductivity change of the oil sample, ranging from 0-200μS / cm, and uses a gradient descent algorithm to process the conductivity data to calculate the concentration of each different impurity, denoted as impurity concentration two. The impurity concentration one and impurity concentration two corresponding to each impurity are fused to obtain the final concentration of each impurity; several final concentrations of each impurity are used as training set one, and the types of impurities in training set one are used as labels for the training samples. The trained discrimination calculation model is written into the microprocessor MCU-500.

[0118] Furthermore, the spectral sensor (model: SP-300) performs optical detection on the oil sample within a wavelength range of 200-800 nm to identify spectral characteristics in the oil sample. Preferably, the spectral sensor is initially set up using a calibration standard. A conductivity sensor (model: EC-100) is used to monitor changes in the conductivity of the oil sample, with a measurement range of 0-200 μS / cm, reflecting the content of conductive impurities in the oil sample and providing supplementary electrical detection data. The conductivity sensor should be calibrated periodically to maintain accuracy.

[0119] Step 4: Data Processing and Analysis

[0120] In the online phase, the data collected by the spectral sensor (model: SP-300) and the conductivity sensor (model: EC-100) are transmitted in real time to the analysis and processing unit (model: MCU-500). The unit then uses the discrimination calculation model trained in the offline phase to process the data and output the determined impurity type and concentration in the oil sample.

[0121] Furthermore, the analysis and processing unit (model: MCU-500) integrates all analysis results, generates a test report, and stores the results in the built-in storage unit. Preferably, redundant storage technology is used to ensure data security and reliability.
