[0042] The following describes the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The terms used in the implementation method section of the present application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0043] The embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, with the development of technology and the emergence of new scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0044] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and need not be used to describe a specific order or sequential order. It should be understood that the terms used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, which is only to describe the distinction mode adopted by the objects of the same attributes when describing in the embodiments of the present application. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, so that the process, method, system, product or equipment comprising a series of units need not be limited to those units, but may include other units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or equipment.

[0045] Temperature is one of the core indicators for monitoring power transformers. Existing temperature monitoring technology for power transformers mainly relies on infrared cameras, which use infrared thermal imaging technology to monitor the operating status of power transformers in real time, detect potential overheating problems in a timely manner, and prevent failures.

[0046] However, the temperature monitoring technology of the power transformer in the known technology has the following problems:

[0047] It can only capture temperature changes on the surface of the transformer, but cannot monitor the temperature inside the power transformer; infrared temperature measurement technology is easily affected by the external environment, such as sunlight, radiation from surrounding objects, etc., resulting in inaccurate temperature measurement data; infrared camera equipment requires regular calibration and maintenance to ensure its measurement accuracy and stability, but due to the complexity and precision of the equipment, maintenance work often requires professional personnel, increasing operation and maintenance costs; infrared camera equipment relies on external power supply and has a limited scope of application.

[0048] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a temperature monitoring method and related devices for a power transformer.

[0049] Optional, see Figure 1 , a flow chart of a temperature monitoring method for a power transformer provided in the present application.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the temperature monitoring method of the power transformer includes the following steps:

[0051] Step 101, obtaining at least the temperature data of the power transformer through each temperature measurement node on the wireless link; each temperature measurement node is each intelligent temperature measurement bolt installed in the power transformer at a heat source point position whose temperature difference with the external environment reaches a preset temperature difference threshold.

[0052] The temperature acquisition component of the power transformer provided in the present application is an intelligent temperature measuring bolt, which is specifically installed at the heating point (also called heat source) of the power transformer where wiring cannot be carried out and bolts can be used for fastening. The intelligent temperature measuring bolt includes but is not limited to an intelligent temperature measuring bolt body, a temperature sensor, a thermoelectric generator and a heat sink.

[0053] Temperature sensors are mainly used to collect temperature data of electrical connection points and are generally installed on the temperature sensing surface inside the intelligent temperature measuring bolt.

[0054] The radiator is mainly used for direct heat conduction with the thermoelectric generator to help dissipate heat. The radiator is generally installed on the top of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt.

[0055] Thermoelectric generators are mainly used to convert thermal energy into electrical energy to power temperature sensors, radiators and other components. Specifically, the thermoelectric generator converts the temperature difference between the heating point of the power transformer and the intelligent temperature measuring bolt radiator into electrical energy. It is understandable that the thermoelectric generator can only perform thermoelectric effect when the temperature difference between the heating point of the power transformer and the radiator reaches a preset threshold, wherein the temperature of the radiator is equivalent to the ambient temperature. Exemplarily, the preset threshold of the temperature difference can be 5K, that is, when the temperature difference between the heating point of the power transformer and the environment is greater than 5K, the thermoelectric generator can convert thermal energy into electrical energy to power other components. It should be noted that the thermal energy consumed by the thermoelectric generator for the thermoelectric effect is very small, and the thermal energy of the power transformer is in a state of constant replenishment, so the thermal energy consumed by the thermoelectric generator will not affect the acquisition accuracy of the temperature sensor.

[0056] It should be noted that the intelligent temperature measuring spiral in this application can be selected as ITMB-1000. The performance of this model of intelligent temperature measuring spiral is relatively excellent. If intelligent temperature measuring bolts or other intelligent temperature measuring components with better performance appear in the future, they can be replaced.

[0057] The intelligent temperature measuring bolt model ITMB-1000 mainly includes a bolt body and a temperature measuring device. The bolt body mainly includes a screw and a nut, which are used to tighten the electrical contacts; the temperature measuring device mainly includes a PCB circuit board, a heat sink and a thermoelectric generator; the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) is provided with a temperature sensor and a transmitting antenna for real-time temperature monitoring and data transmission; the thermoelectric generator has a cold end and a hot end, and uses the temperature difference between the electrical contacts at the heat sink end to convert into electrical energy to power the PCB board; the heat sink is located on one side of the cold end of the thermoelectric generator, and directly conducts heat with the cold end to help dissipate heat. The temperature sensor of this model of intelligent temperature measuring bolt adopts an IP66 protection grade design, can work in a temperature environment of -20℃ to 85℃, and has a service life of 20 years.

[0058] For example, see Figure 2 , an example diagram of the ITMB-1000 model intelligent temperature measuring bolt provided in this application.

[0059] like Figure 2 As shown, the heat input surface, heat sink, antenna and indicator light are visible on the surface of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt. The heat input surface is the temperature sensing surface of the temperature sensor in the intelligent temperature measuring bolt; the heat sink is used to help dissipate heat; the antenna refers to the transmitting antenna placed in the intelligent temperature measuring bolt; the indicator light is used to display the working status or warning information of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt, for example, to show whether the intelligent temperature measuring bolt is in normal working state (whether data is collected normally). In addition, when the collected temperature of the power transformer exceeds the preset safety threshold, the indicator light may flash or change color to remind the operation and maintenance personnel to check and deal with potential problems in time.

[0060] The intelligent temperature measuring bolts installed at the heating point of the power transformer and the multifunctional data acquisition and monitoring device located at the data processing end form a wireless link. The temperature measurement nodes in the wireless link are the intelligent temperature measuring bolts installed in the power transformer. The frequency bands of the wireless channels between the intelligent temperature measuring bolts and the multifunctional data acquisition and monitoring device at the data processing end are consistent. For example, the frequency band of the wireless channel can be 433MHz. It should be noted that the frequency band of the wireless channel can be replaced, but it is necessary to ensure that the frequency bands of the wireless channels between the intelligent temperature measuring bolts on the wireless link and between the intelligent temperature measuring bolts and the multifunctional data acquisition and monitoring device are consistent, and the selected channel is available in the actual application environment.

[0061] It should be noted that the selection range of the installation position of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt is: the heating part of the power transformer that can be fastened with bolts, that is, the intelligent temperature measuring bolt can be installed at any position that meets the above conditions. Furthermore, a more precise installation position is preferably selected at the heating part of the power transformer that can be fastened with bolts and the temperature difference with the external environment reaches a preset threshold, and the preset threshold here can be set to 10K.

[0062] The installation orientation of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt is also very important, which is of great significance for the collection of radio frequency and data. Specifically, the intelligent temperature measuring bolt should be installed in a position where the bolt radiator is not subjected to intensive shear or vibration mechanical stress; the radiator should be kept at a certain distance from the heat source, and the fins of the radiator should be facing the heat source and perpendicular to the ground to facilitate the use of natural convection heat dissipation; avoid placing the intelligent temperature measuring bolt in the horizontal direction. If placed in the horizontal direction, the collected heat energy will be greatly reduced. The best installation position is the side or bottom of the heat source point; if there is an electric fan or ventilation fan to generate forced convection, it can greatly improve the data collection performance of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt.

[0063] In addition, before installing the intelligent temperature measuring bolt, the installation surface of the power transformer can be cleaned. Specifically, acetone or anhydrous ethanol can be used for cleaning to remove rust, oil and other debris. For better thermal performance, thermal conductive silicone grease can be filled between the heat source surface of the power transformer and the temperature sensor of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt.

[0064] It should also be noted that the temperature sensor of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt can also collect the transmission energy of the antenna and the wireless link signal strength of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt to which the temperature sensor belongs. The transmission energy and the wireless link signal strength are sent to the multifunctional data acquisition and monitoring device together with the collected temperature data. The multifunctional data acquisition and monitoring device uses the transmission energy to evaluate whether the transmission energy of the current antenna of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt is stable, and uses the wireless link signal strength to evaluate the signal quality of the intelligent temperature measuring bolt.

[0065] In summary, the intelligent temperature measuring bolts used in the temperature monitoring method of the power transformer provided in the present application can not only realize independent power supply through the self-generation function, but also transmit temperature data through wireless transmission technology, which is suitable for temperature monitoring inside the power transformer.

[0066] Optionally, the data processing end obtains the temperature data of the power transformer from each intelligent temperature measuring bolt installed in the power transformer through a wireless channel of a preselected frequency band.

[0067] For the wireless link mentioned above, the design needs to be completed before the power transformer temperature monitoring. The design process of the wireless link includes the following steps:

[0068] Step 1: Use a two-way information exchange model to determine the temperature measurement node pairs that need to be time synchronized.

[0069] The design of the wireless link mainly needs to complete the time synchronization of each smart temperature measuring bolt installed in the power transformer. In this application, a two-way information exchange model and a receiver-receiver synchronization model are mainly used to complete the time synchronization process of each smart bolt. It can be understood that after each smart temperature measuring bolt completes the time synchronization, the design of the wireless link is completed.

[0070] In the present application, a two-way information exchange model is used to determine the temperature measurement node pairs that need to perform two-way information exchange, and specifically, the two-way information exchange model is used to determine the temperature measurement node pairs that perform time synchronization.

[0071] Optionally, a two-way information exchange model is used to perform time synchronization on the temperature measurement node pair.

[0072] Step 2: Realize time synchronization between temperature measurement node pairs through the receiver-receiver synchronization model.

[0073] Then, the receiver-receiver synchronization model is used to complete the time synchronization between the temperature measurement node pairs.

[0074] It should be noted that the time synchronization between each smart temperature measuring bolt on the wireless link is completed through the above two steps, the purpose is to ensure the time consistency of data collection between each smart temperature measuring bolt and the accuracy of subsequent data transmission. In addition, during the time synchronization process, the smart temperature measuring bolts also use wireless channels for communication. The frequency band of the wireless channel is consistent with the frequency band of the wireless channel used by the subsequent smart temperature measuring bolts and the data processing end for data transmission. It can be understood that the smart temperature measuring bolts have wireless communication functions.

[0075] Taking a group of adjacent temperature measurement nodes A and B as an example, with temperature measurement node B as a reference node, temperature measurement node A needs to be synchronized with temperature measurement node B.

[0076] Assume that when the Kth round of information exchange is completed, the temperature measurement node A will be at time T 1,k Send a synchronization message to the temperature measurement node B, and the temperature measurement node B will record the time T when the synchronization message is received 2,k , and reply to the temperature measurement node A with a timestamp T 3,k Finally, the temperature measurement node A will record the time T when it receives the reply message from the temperature measurement node B. 4,k After N rounds of time message exchange, message synchronization is finally achieved.

[0077] In this process, the time synchronization calculation formula in the receiver-receiver synchronization model can be expressed as:

[0078] ;

[0079] ;

[0080] Where f is the time skew of temperature measurement node A relative to temperature measurement node B, is the time offset of temperature measurement node A relative to temperature measurement node B, is a fixed time delay, X k is the variable time delay from temperature measurement node A to temperature measurement node B, Y k is the variable time delay from temperature measurement node B to temperature measurement node A.

[0081] Correspondingly, substituting all the collected timestamp information into the time synchronization formula in the receiver-receiver synchronization model in matrix form yields:

[0082] ;

[0083] Among them, 1 2Nis the number of synchronization rounds, X1 is the initial position of the temperature measurement node A in the synchronization process, and X N is the final position of the temperature measurement node A during the synchronization process, Y1 is the initial coordinate of the temperature measurement node A during the synchronization process, and Y N is the final coordinate of the temperature measurement node A during the synchronization process; T 1,1 , T 1,N , T 4,1 , T 4,N is a timestamp, which indicates the time record of the temperature measurement node A sending and receiving synchronization messages during the time message exchange process from the 1st round to the Nth round; T 2,1 , T 2,N , T 3,1 , T 3,N It is also a timestamp, indicating the time record of the temperature measurement node B receiving and sending time messages in multiple rounds.

[0084] Furthermore, the time synchronization formula in the receiver-receiver synchronization model between any two temperature measurement nodes A and B is:

[0085] ;

[0086] ;

[0087] in, and Indicates the receiving timestamp of temperature measurement node A and temperature measurement node B in the kth round of message exchange, and Indicates the clock frequency multiplier of temperature measurement node A and temperature measurement node B, T 1,k It is the time when the time message is sent from the temperature measuring node A in the kth round of message exchange. and is the fixed transmission delay between temperature measurement node A and temperature measurement node B, and represents the variable time delay from temperature measurement node A to temperature measurement node B and from temperature measurement node B to temperature measurement node A in the kth round, and Indicates the time offset between temperature measurement node A and temperature measurement node B.

[0088] Substituting all the timestamp information collected above into the time synchronization formula in the above receiver-receiver synchronization model in the form of a matrix, we can get:

[0089] ;

[0090] in, represents the difference between the receiving timestamps of temperature measuring node A and temperature measuring node B in multiple rounds; T 1,1 , T1,2 ,…,T 1,N It is the timestamp when the temperature measuring node A sends the synchronization message during the Nth round of message exchange, which is used to pair with the receiving timestamp of the temperature measuring node B to analyze the time difference between the two timestamps; It is the relative clock frequency factor between temperature measurement node A and temperature measurement node B, which is used to adjust the clock rate difference between the two temperature measurement nodes. It is the clock offset of temperature measurement node A relative to temperature measurement node B, which is used to indicate the initial difference in relative time between the two temperature measurement nodes; Indicates the fixed transmission delay in each of the 2N synchronizations; is a variable time delay, which indicates the dynamic delay change from temperature measurement node A to temperature measurement node B or from temperature measurement node B to temperature measurement node A in the i-th round of message exchange.

[0091] It should also be noted that if there is no relative clock skew between the two temperature measurement nodes, the clock offset The least squares estimate of can be written as:

[0092] ;

[0093] In summary, the wireless links to which each smart bolt belongs are designed based on a two-way information exchange model and a receiver-receiver synchronization model.

[0094] Step 102: input the temperature data into the temperature characteristic fault diagnosis model for processing to obtain the temperature characteristic fault diagnosis result; the temperature characteristic fault diagnosis model is configured to process the temperature data in the order of a multi-scale convolution module, a dense stacked network module, a residual module, and a compression and excitation attention mechanism module, and then output the temperature characteristic fault diagnosis result.

[0095] The temperature feature fault diagnosis model is trained and used based on convolutional neural networks. It is mainly used to diagnose whether there is a fault in the power transformer through the temperature data obtained from each intelligent temperature measurement bolt. The model mainly includes four modules: multi-scale convolution module, dense stacking network module, residual module and compression and excitation attention mechanism module, which can also be called SE (Squeeze-and-Excitation) attention mechanism module.

[0096] Among them, the multi-scale convolution module mainly uses filters of different scales to convolve the temperature data for a preset number of times to obtain feature vectors at different scales. This module can improve the convolutional network's ability to recognize features of different sizes and complexities, and improve the robustness of fault diagnosis.

[0097] The densely stacked network module receives feature vectors at different scales output from the multi-scale convolution module, performs feature fusion processing on the feature vectors at different scales to obtain fused features. This module can connect the output of each layer with the input of the subsequent layer to achieve efficient feature fusion, which helps to extract more detailed features and improve the ability to detect faults at an early stage.

[0098] The residual module receives the fused features output by the densely stacked network module, and processes the fused features through skip connections to obtain a deep feature representation suitable for propagation in a deep network. The skip connection can solve the gradient message problem in the deep network, so that the feature information can be effectively propagated in the deep network, which can improve the training effect and accuracy of the temperature feature fault diagnosis model.

[0099] The SE attention mechanism module receives the deep feature representation output by the residual module. After the deep feature representation is input into the global average pooling layer and the fully connected layer in sequence, the module generates feature channels through modeling and adjusts the weights of the feature channels to obtain the temperature fault features. The weights of the generated feature channels are used to weight the feature channels, enhance the weights of important features, suppress irrelevant features, improve the feature expression ability of the temperature feature fault diagnosis model, and further improve the fault identification accuracy of the temperature feature fault diagnosis model.

[0100] Finally, the temperature fault features output by the SE attention mechanism module are compared with the various sub-fault features in the fault feature set generated during the training process in the temperature feature fault diagnosis model. Specifically, the fault feature set is the model training process. By pre-setting the fault data, these pre-set different fault data are processed in the convolutional neural network to obtain waveforms corresponding to different fault data. After multiple trainings, various different waveforms corresponding to different fault features are obtained to form a fault feature set. After the temperature feature fault diagnosis model processes the temperature data to obtain the fault feature, it will judge the fault feature and compare it with the various fault features in the fault feature set. When there are sub-fault features in the fault feature set that are similar to or exactly the same as the fault feature, the power transformer is diagnosed as the fault type indicated by the sub-fault feature.

[0101] In summary, the temperature feature fault diagnosis model integrates multi-scale feature fusion, residual learning and attention mechanism. The model can accurately and efficiently extract and diagnose fault features when processing complex temperature signal data, and has higher robustness and accuracy.

[0102] For example, see Figure 3 , the diagnostic accuracy curve example graph and loss example graph of the temperature characteristic fault diagnosis model provided in this application.

[0103] Depend on Figure 3It can be seen that at the 20th iteration, the training accuracy of the temperature feature fault diagnosis model has reached 96% and tends to be stable.

[0104] It should be noted that the formulas involved in the training process of each module in the temperature characteristic fault diagnosis model are as follows:

[0105] The multi-scale convolution module uses filters of different scales to perform multiple convolutions on the temperature data to obtain feature vectors at different scales. Then, the feature vectors at different scales are fused and further extracted to obtain feature vectors of different fine-grained sizes. The setting of the multi-scale convolution module can improve the robustness of the convolutional neural network.

[0106] The calculation formula is as follows:

[0107] ;

[0108] Among them, Y represents the output data after one-dimensional multi-scale convolution fusion, X i =[X1, X2, X3, …, X n ] represents the feature vectors extracted at different scales, and Concat represents the process of feature fusion.

[0109] After that, the feature vectors of different fine-grained levels are input into the dense stacking network module. The Concat1 layer fuses the input layer with the output layer after the first convolution layer. The Concat2 layer fuses the output layer after the first convolution layer with the output layer after the second convolution layer. The Concat3 layer fuses the output layer after the first, second, and third convolutions of the input layer with the temperature data. It should be noted that the dense stacking network module is conducive to mining the subtle features of temperature data and discovering early faults of power transformers. The calculation formula of this module can be:

[0110] ;
