Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration, and in particular to a nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration signal denoising method and system. Background Art

[0002] Circulating water pumps are the main pumps in a nuclear power plant's three-circuit circulating water system, providing cooling water for the plant's steam turbine condensers and auxiliary cooling systems. The unstable flow of fluid within the circulating water pump is characterized by strong randomness and pulsation, and the presence of multiple vortex systems. This unsteady fluid pressure pulsation acts on the impeller inside the casing, causing vibration excitation and generating the impeller's passing frequency.

[0003] As a critical component of a circulating water pump, impeller failure can cause significant events such as unit power reduction, shutdown, and reactor shutdown. Therefore, it is essential to diagnose the type and severity of impeller failures in the early stages. Vibration signal acquisition is the primary method for monitoring the condition of circulating water pump impellers. Vibration sensors indirectly extract the impeller's characteristic frequencies by collecting vibration signals from the casing. However, the acquisition of impeller vibration signals is susceptible to interference from water flow impact noise, and the characteristic frequencies are easily lost in the noise. The pass-through frequency is a crucial characteristic frequency for identifying impeller failure and its type. Therefore, feature enhancement and denoising methods are required to identify weak pass-through frequencies.

[0004] Variational modal decomposition (VMD) is a signal decomposition method proposed by KD et al. in 2014. It has been widely used in fields such as signal processing and fault diagnosis. However, traditional VMD methods require manual parameter setting, making it difficult to effectively decompose signals and resulting in poor denoising. Therefore, it is necessary to adaptively optimize the key VMD parameters to improve the denoising effect of vibration signals, identify the impeller's passing frequency, and provide high-quality monitoring data for subsequent impeller fault diagnosis.

[0005] The above information disclosed in this Background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the background of the invention and therefore it may contain information that does not form the prior art that is already known to a person of ordinary skill in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention proposes a method and system for denoising the vibration signal of a nuclear power circulating water pump impeller, which improves the denoising effect of the vibration signal and identifies the passing frequency of the impeller.

[0007] The method for denoising the vibration signal of the impeller of a nuclear power circulating water pump includes the following steps:

[0008] The first step is to collect the vibration signal of the impeller of the nuclear power circulating water pump;

[0009] In the second step, the improved Seagull algorithm uses Logistic chaos mapping to initialize the seagull population, uses the tanh function to design a nonlinear decreasing inertia weight, incorporates the Lévy flight mechanism during the seagull attack phase, constructs the fitness function using the correlation coefficient and permutation entropy, and uses the improved Seagull algorithm to optimize the variational mode decomposition parameters.

[0010] The third step is to perform variational modal decomposition on the vibration signal according to the variational modal decomposition parameters optimized by the improved Seagull algorithm to obtain the intrinsic modal components. The evaluation score of each intrinsic modal component is calculated using the constructed screening index.

[0011] The fourth step is to determine the noise level of each eigenmode component based on the evaluation score, perform corresponding denoising, reconstruct the signal using the denoised eigenmode components, and set evaluation indicators to evaluate the results.

[0012] In the method, in the first step, collecting the vibration signal of the nuclear power circulating water pump impeller includes arranging three acceleration sensors on the impeller housing of the circulating water pump test bench to collect the vibration signals of the impeller in the x-axis, y-axis and z-axis directions.

[0013] In the method, in the second step,

[0014] The Logistic chaos initialization method is used to initialize the seagull population. The Logistic chaos mapping formula is:

[0015] z k+1 =μz k (1-z k ),

[0016] Where k is the number of iterations, z k Represents the current value of the chaotic sequence, z k+1 Represents the value of the next iterative chaotic sequence, μ is an adjustable parameter, and μ∈[0, 4],

[0017] The tanh function is used to design the nonlinear inertia weight of the seagull algorithm during the migration phase:

[0018]

[0019] Among them, the value A is an additional variable that controls the position update of the individual seagull, that is, the designed nonlinear inertia weight, f c is the coefficient that controls the frequency of A value decrease, k is the number of iterations, K MAx is the maximum number of iterations, γ is the parameter that controls the slope of the tanh function,

[0020] Introducing the Levy flight mechanism into the seagull's prey attack phase to enhance the algorithm's ability to escape from local optimal solutions:

[0021] P s (k)=(D s (k)×x×y×z×Levi(β))+P bs (k),

[0022] Among them, P s (k) is the new position of the seagull after attacking the prey, P bs (k) is the optimal individual position of the seagull group, D s (k) is the relative position of the current seagull individual and the optimal individual, x, y, z are the spatial parameters of the seagull in the attack prey stage, β is the random parameter of Lévy flight, and β∈[0,2],

[0023] The Levy flight mechanism is expressed as:

[0024]

[0025] Among them, u and v are parameters that obey the random normal distribution, which are specifically expressed as:

[0026]

[0027] in, Indicates that μ obeys the mean of 0 and the variance is The normal distribution, σ μ is the standard deviation of the parameter μ, and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0028]

[0029] Where β is the random parameter of the Lévy flight, and β∈[0,2], Γ(x)=(x-1)!.

[0030] In the method described above, in the second step, the penalty factor α and the mode number K of the variational mode decomposition are optimized using the improved seagull algorithm, and the fitness function constructed is:

[0031]

[0032] Where x is the original signal, X is the reconstructed signal, r(X, x) is the correlation coefficient between the reconstructed signal X and the original signal x, and P k is the permutation entropy of the kth eigenmode component, β1 is the weight coefficient,

[0033] The calculation formula for the permutation entropy of the kth eigenmode component is as follows:

[0034]

[0035] Where M is the length of the sequence, IMF k is the kth eigenmode component, and the eigenmode component time series is reconstructed in phase space, Pj (·) represents each row of the reconstruction matrix, that is, the probability of each sequence occurring.

[0036] In the method described above, in the second step, the iterative process of optimizing the variational mode decomposition parameters using the improved Seagull algorithm is as follows:

[0037] Step 1: Initialize the size of the seagull population, set the problem-solving dimension, the number of algorithm iterations, and give the search range of the parameter K to be optimized [K min , K max ], given the search range of the parameter to be optimized α [α min , α max ],

[0038] Step 2: Set the initialization parameter combination and calculate the fitness value of each seagull individual.

[0039] Step 3: Update the current individual position of the seagull and the optimal individual position of the group. If the fitness value of the current position of the seagull is less than the fitness value of the last iteration, then update the optimal individual position and optimal fitness value of the seagull group. Otherwise, the optimal individual position and optimal fitness value remain unchanged.

[0040] Step 4: Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the optimal variational mode decomposition parameter combination is obtained, or the current number of iterations is greater than the set number of iterations.

[0041] In the method, in the third step,

[0042] By integrating the correlation coefficient and permutation entropy, the screening index of the eigenmode components is constructed, that is, the evaluation score calculation formula of each eigenmode component is:

[0043] I=β2r(IMF k ,x)+(1-β2)P k ,

[0044] Among them, x is the original signal, r(IMF k , x) is the correlation coefficient between the kth IMF component and the original signal x, β2 is the weight coefficient,

[0045] An evaluation score of each eigenmode component is calculated based on the screening index.

[0046] In the fourth step of the method, the noise level of each eigenmode component is determined, and the components are divided into useful components, low-noise components, and high-noise components. The IMF component with the highest evaluation score is defined as the useful component, and the evaluation score I of each IMF component is compared with the evaluation score I of the maximum IMF component. max For comparison, if The corresponding modal components are defined as high-noise components, and the rest are defined as low-noise components.

[0050] Setting evaluation indicators to evaluate denoising effects includes:

[0055]

[0056] Among them, RMSE is the root mean square error, n is the signal length, x is the original signal, X is the denoised signal, t is the time,

[0057] For the measured vibration signal of the impeller, the denoising effect is evaluated using the noise reduction rate:

[0058]

[0059] Where NRR is the noise reduction rate, σ x is the standard deviation of the original signal, σ X is the standard deviation of the denoised signal.

[0184] To further illustrate the method of the present invention, an enhanced nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration signal denoising method of the present invention is explained below with a specific implementation method and in combination with the accompanying drawings, which is not intended to limit the present invention.

Figure 4This is a graph showing how key parameters of variational modal decomposition vary with the number of iterations in one embodiment of an enhanced nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration signal denoising method in the present invention, wherein the key parameters are the penalty factor α and the modal number K. Figure 5 It is a permutation entropy diagram of each eigenmode component after variational modal decomposition in one embodiment of an enhanced nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration signal denoising method in the present invention. Figure 6 This is a time domain diagram of each eigenmode component after variational mode decomposition in an embodiment of an enhanced nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration signal denoising method in the present invention. Figure 7(a) to Figure 7(c) This is a comparison diagram of the denoising effects of an embodiment of an enhanced nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration signal denoising method in the present invention, wherein Figure 7(a), Figure 7(b), and Figure 7(c) are respectively the envelope spectrum of the original signal, the envelope spectrum obtained by applying the method of the present invention, and the envelope spectrum obtained by applying the wavelet threshold denoising method, and the impeller passing frequency is marked in the elliptical box.

[0186] According to an enhanced nuclear power circulating water pump impeller vibration signal denoising method of the present invention, an exemplary implementation is provided as follows:

[0187] In the first step, three acceleration sensors were placed on the impeller housing of the nuclear power circulating water pump test bench to collect vibration signals in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions of the impeller. The circulating water pump speed is 341r / min, the number of impeller blades is 4, the shaft rotation frequency is 5.68Hz, and the impeller passing frequency is 22.72Hz.

[0188] In the second step, if Figure 4 ,By improving the Seagull optimization algorithm to optimize the key parameters of ,variational modal decomposition, the value of the penalty factor α gradually stabilizes after the 10th round, and takes a value of 12840. The value of the modal number K also gradually stabilizes after 10 rounds, and takes a value of 6.

[0189] In the third step, as shown in Table 1, the evaluation scores of each eigenmode component are calculated.

[0190] Table 1 Evaluation scores of each eigenmode component

[0191]

[0192] In the fourth step, as shown in Table 1, of the six eigenmode components after variational mode decomposition, the third eigenmode component has the highest evaluation score and is not subjected to denoising. The remaining eigenmode components all have evaluation scores greater than half of the highest evaluation score and are therefore subjected to wavelet denoising. The third eigenmode component is reconstructed with the remaining eigenmode components after denoising to obtain the denoised signal.

[0193] The denoising results of the present invention were compared with those of direct wavelet threshold processing, which verified the effectiveness of the method of the present invention. Figure 7(a) to Figure 7(c) The figure shows a comparison of denoising effects. From the comparison of Figure 7(a) and Figure 7(c), it can be seen that the signal after direct wavelet threshold denoising cannot identify the impeller passing frequency, and the spectrum has many interference components, and the denoising effect is very poor. From the comparison of Figure 7(a) and Figure 7(b), it can be seen that the method of the present invention can not only clearly distinguish the impeller passing frequency, but also enhance the rotation frequency and its multiple amplitude to a certain extent. The spectrum is relatively clean and has fewer interference components. Table 2 is a comparison of the denoising rate of the method of the present invention and that after direct wavelet threshold processing. It can be seen from Table 2 that the denoising effect of the method of the present invention is better, and the denoising rate is significantly improved compared with direct wavelet threshold processing, thus verifying the effectiveness of the method proposed in the present invention.
