The method 100 for controlling the temperature of dairy product production mainly includes the following steps:

[0053] In step 101, the internal temperature at different detection points inside the fermentation tank is collected.

[0054] In specific implementation, after starting the temperature control of dairy product production, the internal temperature at different detection points inside the fermentation tank during the dairy product production process is collected through a temperature collection device, wherein the temperature collection device can be a thermocouple, a thermistor, a resistance temperature detector, etc. It should be noted that the different detection points in the present application are multiple detection points evenly distributed from top to bottom inside the fermentation tank.

[0056] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of the process of determining the temperature deviation in some embodiments of the present application. In this embodiment, the temperature deviation of the fermenter at different heating levels is determined based on the distribution characteristics of the detection points inside the fermenter and all the internal temperatures, which can be achieved by the following steps:

[0057] First, in step 1021, the distribution characteristics of the detection points inside the fermentation tank are determined;

[0059] Finally, in step 1023, the temperature deviation of the fermentation tank at different heating levels is determined through all the temperature differences.

[0060] In specific implementation, determining the distribution characteristics of the detection points inside the fermenter can be achieved in the following manner, namely: arranging all the detection points in descending order according to the corresponding heights inside the fermenter, taking the sequence obtained by the arrangement as the detection point sequence, and taking the detection point sequence as the distribution characteristics of the detection points inside the fermenter, wherein the distribution characteristics reflect the distribution of the detection points inside the fermenter, and can be used to analyze the distribution of the temperature inside the fermenter; determining multiple temperature differences based on all the internal temperatures and the distribution characteristics can be achieved in the following manner, namely: selecting a group of adjacent detection points (i.e., two adjacent detection points) in the distribution characteristics as selected adjacent detection points, subtracting the internal temperature corresponding to the second selected detection point from the internal temperature corresponding to the first detection point in the selected adjacent detection points, taking the absolute value of the subtracted value as the temperature difference of the selected adjacent detection points, and continuing to determine the temperature difference of the remaining adjacent detection points in the detection point sequence, wherein the parameter value of the temperature difference representing the degree of difference in temperature between adjacent detection points inside the fermenter can also be determined in other ways in other embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0061] In addition, in a specific implementation, the temperature deviation of the fermentation tank at different heated levels can be determined by all temperature differences, which can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, the mean of all temperature differences is calculated; then, the largest internal temperature among all internal temperatures is divided by the smallest internal temperature, and the value obtained by the division is subjected to a logarithmic operation with a base of 2; secondly, the value obtained by the logarithmic operation is multiplied by the mean of all temperature differences; finally, the multiplied value is used as the temperature deviation of the fermentation tank at different heated levels; it should be noted that the temperature deviation described in the present application represents a parameter value of the degree of deviation between the internal temperatures of the fermentation tank at different heated levels, which can be used to analyze the heat transfer performance of the detection point, and can also be determined in other ways in other embodiments, which are not limited here.

[0062] In some embodiments, determining the variable range of the fermentation temperature of the dairy product during the heating process by using the temperature deviation and the fermentation temperature range of the dairy product fermentation in the fermentation tank can be achieved by the following steps:

[0063] Determine the fermentation temperature range when the fermentation tank is used for dairy product fermentation and the specific heat capacity of the dairy product in the fermentation tank;

[0064] Determining the heat loss of the internal temperature of the fermentation tank during the heat conduction process according to the temperature deviation and the specific heat capacity of the dairy product in the fermentation tank;

[0065] The variable range of the fermentation temperature of the dairy product during the heating process is determined by the fermentation temperature range and the heat loss.

[0066] Among them, in specific implementation, determining the fermentation temperature range when the fermentation tank is used for dairy fermentation and the specific heat capacity of the dairy product in the fermentation tank can be achieved in the following manner, namely: obtaining the maximum fermentation temperature and the minimum fermentation temperature under the optimal fermentation condition in the dairy fermentation process, and using the range composed of the maximum fermentation temperature and the minimum fermentation temperature as the temperature value range of the optimal fermentation temperature in the dairy fermentation process, and then collecting the specific heat capacity of the dairy product in the fermentation tank through the existing specific heat capacity collection equipment (such as a heat flow meter instrument, a laser flash meter, a heat flow meter, etc.); determining the specific heat capacity of the dairy product in the fermentation tank according to the temperature deviation and the specific heat capacity of the dairy product in the fermentation tank. The heat loss during the heat conduction process can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, the weight of the dairy product in the fermentation tank is collected by an existing weight collection device (such as a hanging scale, a weighing sensor, an intelligent weighing system, etc.); then, the specific heat capacity is multiplied by the weight of the dairy product; finally, the product of the multiplied value and the temperature deviation is used as the heat loss of the internal temperature of the fermentation tank during the heat conduction process, wherein the heat loss indicates the degree of heat loss during the temperature conduction process, which is used to analyze the heat conduction inside the fermentation tank. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used to determine it, which is not limited here.

[0067] In addition, in a specific implementation, the variable range of the fermentation temperature represents the range of the variable degree of the fermentation temperature of the dairy product during the heating process, which can be used to analyze the heat conduction inside the fermentation tank. As a preferred embodiment, the variable range of the fermentation temperature of the dairy product during the heating process is determined by the fermentation temperature range and the heat loss. The following method is used, namely: first, the heat loss is subjected to a natural exponential operation; second, the inverse of the value obtained by the natural exponential operation is added by 1; then, the inverse of the added value is multiplied by the temperature value range; finally, the multiplied range is used as the variable range of the fermentation temperature of the dairy product during the heating process. In other embodiments, other methods can be used to determine the variable range of the fermentation temperature of the dairy product during the heating process, which are not limited here.

[0068] In step 103, the internal temperature of the dairy product during the fermentation process is integrated through the variable range of the fermentation temperature and the temperature conduction state to obtain the equilibrium temperature inside the fermentation tank when the dairy product is fermented.

[0069] Specifically, the equilibrium temperature in this application can be determined by the following steps:

[0070] Determining the temperature sensitivity of each group of adjacent detection points according to the variable interval;

[0071] Determine the temperature conduction state of dairy products during fermentation;

[0072] The equilibrium temperature inside the fermentation tank when the dairy product is fermented is determined according to the temperature sensitivity and the temperature conduction state.

[0073] Among them, in specific implementation, the temperature sensitivity of each group of adjacent detection points determined according to the variable interval can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, calculate the quotient of the lower limit value and the upper limit value of the variable interval; secondly, select a group of adjacent detection points as selected adjacent detection points, and divide the mean value of the internal temperature corresponding to the selected adjacent detection points by the sum of all internal temperatures, and then add the value obtained by the division and the quotient value as the temperature importance of the selected adjacent detection points, and continue to determine the temperature importance of the remaining adjacent detection points; then, all temperature importances are arranged in ascending order from small to large, and the arranged sequence is used as the temperature importance sequence; finally, the number of arranged bits of the temperature importance corresponding to each group of adjacent detection points in the temperature influence sequence is used as the temperature sensitivity of each group of adjacent detection points, wherein the temperature importance represents the importance of the internal temperature corresponding to the adjacent detection points during the fermentation of dairy products, and the temperature sensitivity represents the sensitivity of the internal temperature change of the dairy product during the fermentation process to the fermentation effect. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used for determination, which is not limited here.

[0074] In addition, in the specific implementation, the temperature conduction state represents the state of the temperature transfer rate of the dairy product during the fermentation process, and the states include fast, normal, and slow. When the temperature conduction state is fast, the temperature transfer rate of the dairy product during the fermentation process is greater; when the temperature conduction state is normal, the temperature transfer rate of the dairy product during the fermentation process is normal; when the temperature conduction state is slow, the temperature transfer rate of the dairy product during the fermentation process is smaller. As a preferred embodiment, determining the temperature conduction state of the dairy product during the fermentation process can be achieved in the following manner, namely: the temperature transfer rate of the dairy product during the fermentation process can be collected by an existing infrared thermal imager, and the temperature conduction state of the dairy product during the fermentation process is marked according to the transfer rate. In other embodiments, other methods can be used to collect the temperature transfer rate of the dairy product during the fermentation process, and other methods can be used to set the temperature conduction state of the dairy product during the fermentation process, which will not be repeated here.

[0075] It should be noted that the equilibrium temperature in the present application represents the optimal temperature for controlling the stable fermentation of dairy products, which can be used to analyze the fermentation state inside the fermentation tank so as to adjust the temperature control equipment of the fermentation tank. As a preferred embodiment, the equilibrium temperature inside the fermentation tank when the dairy product is fermented can be determined according to the temperature sensitivity and the temperature conduction state. It can be achieved in the following way, namely: initialize a equilibrium temperature model, use the temperature sensitivity as the initialization parameter of the equilibrium temperature model, and use the temperature conduction state as the constraint parameter of the equilibrium temperature model, and then obtain the equilibrium temperature inside the fermentation tank when the dairy product is fermented through the equilibrium temperature model, wherein the equilibrium temperature model can be established by a machine learning method in the prior art (such as a neural network algorithm, a logistic regression algorithm, etc.) to obtain a model, for example, by analyzing the weight coefficients corresponding to the temperature influence amount and the temperature conduction state through a logistic regression algorithm, thereby obtaining the equilibrium temperature = temperature influence amount * A + transfer rate corresponding to the temperature conduction state * B, wherein A and B represent weight coefficients, and in other embodiments, other methods can also be used to determine, which is not limited here.

[0076] In step 104, the external temperature of each detection point outside the fermenter is collected, and the conduction gradient between the internal and external heat of the fermenter during the heating process is determined through all the external temperatures and all the internal temperatures.

[0077] In specific implementation, the collection of the external temperature of each detection point on the outside of the fermentation tank can be achieved in the following manner, namely: after starting the external temperature monitoring of the fermentation tank, the external temperature at each detection point on the outside of the fermentation tank during the dairy product production process is collected by a temperature collection device in the prior art, wherein the temperature collection device can be a thermocouple, a thermistor, a resistance temperature detector, etc. It should be noted that the different detection points in the present application are multiple detection points evenly distributed from top to bottom on the outside of the fermentation tank.

[0078] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of a flow chart of determining a conduction gradient in some embodiments of the present application. Determining the conduction gradient between the internal and external heat of the fermenter during the heating process by all external temperatures and all internal temperatures can be achieved by the following steps:

[0079] First, in step 1041, a maximum external temperature and a second external temperature are extracted from all external temperatures;

[0080] Next, in step 1042, the coefficient of fluctuation of all external temperatures is determined;

[0081] Then, in step 1043, a temperature concentration interval outside the fermentation tank is determined according to the maximum external temperature, the second external temperature and the fluctuation coefficient;

[0082] Finally, in step 1044, the conduction gradient between the internal and external heat of the fermentation tank during the heating process is determined through the temperature concentration interval and all internal temperatures.

[0083] Among them, in the specific implementation, the maximum external temperature and the second external temperature can be extracted from all external temperatures. It can be achieved in the following manner, that is: all external temperatures are compared in size, the maximum external temperature is taken as the maximum external temperature, and the second largest external temperature is taken as the second external temperature; the fluctuation coefficient of all external temperatures can be determined in the following manner, that is: the standard deviation of all external temperatures can be calculated by the standard deviation algorithm in the prior art, and then the calculated standard deviation is used as the fluctuation coefficient of all external temperatures, wherein the fluctuation coefficient represents the parameter value of the fluctuation degree of all external temperatures of the fermentation tank. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used to achieve this, which will not be repeated here.

[0084] In addition, in a specific implementation, the temperature concentration interval represents an interval in which the temperature values ​​outside the fermentation tank are concentratedly distributed. As a preferred embodiment, the temperature concentration interval outside the fermentation tank is determined according to the maximum external temperature, the second external temperature and the fluctuation coefficient. The following method can be used to achieve this: first, the difference between the fluctuation coefficient and 1 is calculated, and then the product of the difference and the second external temperature is calculated. Finally, the value obtained by the multiplication is used as the lower limit of the temperature concentration interval, and the maximum external temperature is used as the upper limit of the temperature concentration interval to obtain the temperature concentration interval; the conduction gradient between the internal and external heat of the fermentation tank during the heating process is determined by the temperature concentration interval and all the internal temperatures. The following method can be used: first, the existing technology is used to obtain the temperature concentration interval. The specific heat capacity collection device (such as a heat flow meter, a laser flash meter, a heat flow meter, etc.) in the fermentation tank collects the specific heat capacity of the dairy product in the fermentation tank, and the weight of the dairy product in the fermentation tank is collected by the weight collection device in the prior art (such as a hanging scale, a weighing sensor, an intelligent weighing system, etc.); secondly, the product value of the specific heat capacity and the weight of the dairy product is calculated, and the quotient of the mean of all internal temperatures and the mean of all external temperatures in the temperature concentration interval is calculated, and then the value obtained by multiplying the product value by the quotient value is used as the conduction gradient between the internal and external heat of the fermentation tank during the heating process; wherein the conduction gradient represents the parameter value of the degree of change of the conduction efficiency between the internal and external heat of the fermentation tank during the heating process, and other methods can also be used in other embodiments to achieve this, which will not be repeated here.

[0085] In step 105, the hysteresis response amount of the temperature of the fermentation tank when heating the dairy product is determined according to the conduction gradient and the equilibrium temperature.

[0086] In some embodiments, determining the hysteresis response amount of the temperature of the fermentation tank when heating the dairy product by the conduction gradient and the equilibrium temperature can be achieved by the following steps:

[0087] Obtain the temperature concentration range outside the fermentation tank;

[0088] Determine the synergistic difference between the internal and external temperatures of the fermentation tank according to the temperature concentration interval and the equilibrium temperature;

[0089] The hysteresis response amount of the temperature of the fermentation tank when heating the dairy product is determined by the synergistic difference amount and the conduction gradient.

[0090] In specific implementation, the synergistic difference amount represents a parameter value of the difference between the external temperature of the fermentation tank and the surface temperature of the dairy product. The larger the synergistic difference amount, the greater the difference between the external temperature of the fermentation tank and the surface temperature of the dairy product. The smaller the synergistic difference amount, the smaller the difference between the external temperature of the fermentation tank and the surface temperature of the dairy product. As a preferred embodiment, the synergistic difference amount of the internal and external temperatures of the fermentation tank can be determined according to the temperature concentration interval and the equilibrium temperature. The following method is used, namely: the mean of all external temperatures in the temperature concentration interval is subtracted from the equilibrium temperature, and the value obtained by subtraction is used as the synergistic difference amount of the internal and external temperatures of the fermentation tank. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used, which are not limited here.

[0091] In addition, in a specific implementation, determining the hysteresis response amount of the temperature of the fermentation tank when heating dairy products through the synergistic difference amount and the conduction gradient can be achieved in the following manner: initialize a hysteresis response amount model, use the synergistic difference amount as the initialization parameter of the hysteresis response amount model, use the conduction gradient as the constraint parameter of the hysteresis response amount model, and obtain the hysteresis response amount of the temperature of the fermentation tank when heating dairy products through the hysteresis response amount model, wherein the hysteresis response amount model is a model established through a machine learning method (such as a neural network algorithm, a logistic regression algorithm, etc.), for example, the weight coefficients corresponding to the synergistic difference amount and the conduction gradient are analyzed through a logistic regression algorithm, so as to obtain the hysteresis response amount = synergistic difference amount * C + conduction gradient * D, wherein C and D represent weight coefficients, and other methods can also be used to determine in other embodiments, which are not limited here.

[0092] It should be noted that the temperature hysteresis response amount described in the present application represents the degree of difference between the internal temperature of the fermentation tank after heating the dairy product and the input temperature of the fermentation tank. The temperature hysteresis response amount reflects the degree of hysteresis of the fermentation tank's response to heating the dairy product.

[0093] In step 106, when the hysteresis response amount of the temperature is greater than a preset hysteresis response threshold, the output temperature of the fermentation tank temperature control device is increased.

[0094] In addition, in some embodiments, when the hysteresis response amount of the temperature is less than a preset hysteresis response threshold, the output temperature of the fermentation tank temperature control device is reduced.

[0095] In specific implementation, when the hysteresis response amount of the temperature is greater than the preset hysteresis response threshold, the output temperature of the fermentation tank temperature control device can be added to the hysteresis response amount of the temperature, and the added value is used as the output temperature of the fermentation tank temperature control device; when the hysteresis response amount of the temperature is less than the preset hysteresis response threshold, the output temperature of the fermentation tank temperature control device can be subtracted from the hysteresis response amount of the temperature, and the subtracted value is used as the output temperature of the fermentation tank temperature control device. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used to implement it, which will not be repeated here.

[0096] It should be noted that in the present application, the hysteresis response threshold can be preset by recording the corresponding product quality when the fermentation tank heats the dairy products, and the hysteresis response threshold can also be preset by relevant professionals according to the quality requirements of the dairy products.
