[0002] The sealing status of key parts of a hydro-turbine generator set directly affects the safe and stable operation of the unit and is one of the important guarantees for the safe operation of the unit. Due to the complex service environment, under the influence of stresses such as heat, river water, oil, mechanical load, and hot and cold cycles, aging behaviors such as degradation and cross-linking are inevitable, which may cause cracking, deformation and other sealing failures of the sealing block. At present, the rubber sealing products of river basin power stations have various structural types, a wide variety of specifications, and different performance parameters. There is a lack of sealing performance and remaining life assessment of each seal in the initial state, storage state, installation state, and service state. The sealing status of key parts of a hydro-turbine generator set depends largely on planned maintenance and fault maintenance, and the leakage failure of key seals has a certain degree of randomness and uncontrollability. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a full life cycle management platform to monitor and manage the health status of key seals to ensure the sealing reliability of hydro-turbine generator sets.
