However, due to the high temperature, strong magnetism, high current and strong corrosion characteristics inside the aluminum electrolysis cells, the operating status of aluminum electrolysis cells is difficult to observe directly.

[0003] In the related art, the operating status of the aluminum electrolysis cell is usually evaluated by monitoring the cell voltage curve of the aluminum electrolysis cell. If the cell voltage fluctuates too much or fluctuates frequently, exceeding the set threshold range, the operating status of the aluminum electrolysis cell will be determined to be abnormal.

[0040] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other.

[0041] The aluminum electrolysis equipment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is as follows Figure 1 As shown, the aluminum electrolysis equipment 100 includes a plurality of aluminum electrolysis cells 110 and a status monitoring device 600 (700) for the aluminum electrolysis cells.

[0042] Specifically, a plurality of aluminum electrolysis cells 110 are connected in series via a DC bus. A status monitoring device 600 ( 700 ) for an aluminum electrolysis cell is electrically connected to each aluminum electrolysis cell 110 .

[0043] Optionally, the state monitoring device 700 for an aluminum electrolytic cell includes a processor, which can collect anode current data of the aluminum electrolytic cell and calculate the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell based on the anode current data. When the aluminum electrolytic cell is not operated, the calculated cosine similarity is compared with the first similarity threshold to determine whether the operating state of the aluminum electrolytic cell is abnormal. When the aluminum electrolytic cell is operated, the calculated cosine similarity is compared with the second similarity threshold corresponding to the type of operation currently being performed on the aluminum electrolytic cell to determine whether the operating state of the aluminum electrolytic cell under this operation is abnormal due to this operation, and the technician will be prompted whether it is necessary to slow down or pause the current operation according to the judgment result.

[0044] Combination Figure 1 The aluminum electrolysis equipment shown in the figure, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a state monitoring method for an aluminum electrolysis cell, such as Figure 2 As shown, the condition monitoring method includes:

[0045] S201, the processor collects anode current data of the aluminum electrolysis cell, and calculates the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell based on the anode current data.

[0046] Specifically, one or more components are provided in the aluminum electrolysis cell. Figure 3The reaction modules shown, the current flowing through the anode guide rod of each reaction module is the anode current data of the aluminum electrolytic cell.

[0047] Specifically, a current sensor connected to the anode guide rod of the reaction module is provided on the aluminum electrolysis cell. The current sensor is electrically connected to the processor, and the processor can collect anode current data of the aluminum electrolysis cell through the current sensor.

[0048] Specifically, the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell is a multivariate time series. When the state of the reaction module where an anode is located changes, not only the anode current data at that location will change, but also the anode current data of the other reaction modules will change accordingly, thus causing the overall anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell to change. Therefore, the time series vector of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell at each moment can be expressed by the following expression:

[0049] I(t)=(I1(t),I2(t),...,I N (t));

[0050] Wherein, I(t) is the time series vector of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell at time t, and N is the number of reaction modules in the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0051] Optionally, the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell is calculated according to the anode current data according to the following expression:

[0052]

[0053] Among them, cos<I(t),I(t-1)> is the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution between time t and time t-1, |I(t)| is the amplitude of the anode current distribution at time t, and |I(t-1)| is the amplitude of the anode current distribution at time t-1.

[0054] S202: When the aluminum electrolysis cell is not operated and the cosine similarity is less than a first similarity threshold, the processor determines that the operating state of the aluminum electrolysis cell is abnormal.

[0055] Specifically, the operation of the aluminum reduction cell to be detected refers to normal operations such as aluminum tapping, anode replacement, and anode busbar lifting by technicians when the aluminum reduction cell is electrolyzing aluminum. Specifically, it is possible to determine whether the aluminum reduction cell has been subjected to aluminum tapping operations by detecting parameters such as the aluminum tapping amount and aluminum liquid level of the aluminum reduction cell. It is possible to determine whether the aluminum reduction cell has been subjected to anode replacement operations by detecting parameters such as the temperature and position of the anode. It is possible to determine whether the aluminum reduction cell has been subjected to anode busbar lifting operations by checking the contact between the busbar and the anode guide rod.

[0056] Specifically, the first similarity threshold is the boundary value between the normal operation state and the abnormal operation state of the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution when the aluminum electrolysis cell is not operated. Therefore, if the aluminum electrolysis cell is not operated and the cosine similarity is less than the first similarity threshold, it can be determined that the operation state of the aluminum electrolysis cell is abnormal.

[0057] S203: When the aluminum electrolysis cell is operated, the processor determines a second similarity threshold according to the type of operation currently being performed on the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0058] Specifically, the second similarity threshold is the boundary value of the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution when the aluminum electrolytic cell is operated, and the normal operation state and the abnormal operation state under the operation type. Therefore, after determining that the aluminum electrolytic cell is operated, it is first necessary to determine the second similarity threshold according to the operation type currently being operated on the aluminum electrolytic cell.

[0059] Specifically, a correspondence relationship between the operation type and the similarity threshold is pre-constructed, and the processor may determine the second similarity threshold corresponding to the operation type based on the correspondence relationship.

[0060] S204: When the cosine similarity is less than the second similarity threshold, the processor issues a prompt message to slow down or pause the current operation.

[0061] Specifically, when the aluminum electrolysis cell is operated, if the cosine similarity is less than the second similarity threshold, it indicates that after the aluminum electrolysis cell is currently operated, the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell has a large fluctuation. In this case, it can be determined that the operation state of the aluminum electrolysis cell is abnormal due to the current operation. Therefore, in the above case, the processor will issue a prompt message to slow down or pause the current operation.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, it is found through research that the anode current distribution in the aluminum electrolytic cell will not fluctuate due to changes in the aluminum content of the electrolyte. Therefore, when the aluminum electrolytic cell is in operation, the embodiment of the present disclosure monitors the operating state of the aluminum electrolytic cell by collecting the anode current data of the aluminum electrolytic cell and calculating the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell, and sets different similarity thresholds for whether the aluminum electrolytic cell is operated. When the aluminum electrolytic cell is not operated, the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell is compared with the first similarity threshold to determine whether the operating state of the aluminum electrolytic cell is abnormal. When the aluminum electrolytic cell is operated, the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell is compared with the second similarity threshold corresponding to the type of operation received to determine whether the operating state of the aluminum electrolytic cell under this operation is abnormal due to this operation, and the technician will be prompted whether to slow down or suspend the current operation according to the judgment result. In this way, the accuracy of monitoring the operating state of the aluminum electrolytic cell is improved.

[0063] The present disclosure provides another method for monitoring the state of an aluminum electrolysis cell. Figure 4 As shown, the condition monitoring method includes:

[0064] S401, the processor collects anode current data of the aluminum electrolysis cell, and calculates the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell based on the anode current data.

[0065] S402: When the aluminum electrolysis cell is not operated and the cosine similarity is less than a first similarity threshold, the processor determines that the operating state of the aluminum electrolysis cell is abnormal.

[0066] S403, the processor obtains the operating parameters of the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0067] Specifically, the operating parameters of the aluminum reduction cell are parameters that can be used to diagnose fault problems of the aluminum reduction cell, for example, two levels of the aluminum reduction cell, cell voltage and cell current, etc.

[0068] S404: The processor confirms the abnormal type of the aluminum electrolytic cell according to the operating parameters.

[0069] Specifically, the cause of the abnormality of the aluminum electrolysis cell can be analyzed based on the operating parameters. Therefore, the processor can determine the abnormality type of the aluminum electrolysis cell according to the operating parameters of the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0070] S405: When the aluminum electrolysis cell is operated, the processor determines a second similarity threshold according to the type of operation currently being performed on the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0071] S406: When the cosine similarity is less than the second similarity threshold, the processor issues a prompt message to slow down or pause the current operation.

[0072] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when it is determined that the operation state of the aluminum electrolysis cell is abnormal, the abnormal type of the aluminum electrolysis cell is analyzed according to the operation parameters of the aluminum electrolysis cell. In this way, it is convenient for technicians to quickly locate the location of the aluminum electrolysis cell fault and to repair and maintain the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0073] The present disclosure provides another method for monitoring the state of an aluminum electrolysis cell. Figure 5 As shown, the condition monitoring method includes:

[0074] S501, the processor collects anode current data of the aluminum electrolysis cell, and calculates the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell based on the anode current data.

[0075] S502: When the aluminum electrolysis cell is not operated and the cosine similarity is less than a first similarity threshold, the processor determines that the operating state of the aluminum electrolysis cell is abnormal.

[0076] S503: When the aluminum electrolysis cell is operated, the processor determines a second similarity threshold according to the type of operation currently being performed on the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0077] S504: When the cosine similarity is less than the second similarity threshold, the processor issues a prompt message to slow down or pause the current operation.

[0078] S505: The processor counts the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell in each monitoring cycle within a set time period.

[0079] Specifically, the set duration is a relatively long time range, for example, it can be one week, one month or one year. The monitoring period is a relatively short time range, for example, it can be 6 hours, 12 hours or 24 hours.

[0080] Specifically, by counting the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution in each monitoring cycle within the set time, the variation trend of the variance within the set time can be analyzed and determined, thereby longitudinally examining the variation of the operating stability of the aluminum electrolytic cell. Therefore, the processor needs to count the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell in each monitoring cycle within the set time.

[0081] Optionally, the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution in each monitoring period is calculated according to the following expression:

[0082]

[0083] Among them, Var is the cosine similarity variance, cos xi is the i-th cosine similarity in the monitoring period, cos μ is the mean of all cosine similarities in the monitoring period, and N is the number of cosine similarities in the monitoring period.

[0084] S506: The processor determines the operating stability of the aluminum electrolytic cell according to multiple cosine similarity variances within a set time period.

[0085] Specifically, based on multiple cosine similarity variances within a set time, the change trend of the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell over time can be analyzed. If the change trend is stable, it means that the operation of the aluminum electrolytic cell is stable. Therefore, the processor can determine the operating stability of the aluminum electrolytic cell based on multiple cosine similarity variances within a set time.

[0086] Optionally, the operating stability of the aluminum electrolytic cell is determined based on multiple cosine similarity variances within a set time length, including: constructing a changing trend line graph of the cosine similarity variance based on multiple cosine similarity variances within a set time length; determining the number of unstable points in the changing trend line graph that are greater than or equal to a variance threshold; when the number of unstable points is less than a set number, determining that the operation of the aluminum electrolytic cell is stable; when the number of unstable points is greater than or equal to a set number, determining that the operation of the aluminum electrolytic cell is unstable.

[0087] Specifically, by constructing a cosine similarity variance variation trend line graph and counting the number of unstable points in the variation trend line graph that are greater than or equal to the variance threshold, it can be determined whether the variation trend of the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell is stable.

[0088] Specifically, if the number of unstable points is less than the set number, it indicates that the fluctuation of the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell is small. Therefore, in this case, it can be determined that the operation of the aluminum electrolysis cell is stable.

[0089] Specifically, if the number of unstable points is less than or equal to the set number, it indicates that the cosine similarity of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolysis cell fluctuates greatly. Therefore, in this case, it can be determined that the operation of the aluminum electrolysis cell is unstable.

[0090] In the disclosed embodiment, the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution of the aluminum electrolytic cell in each monitoring cycle within a set time period is statistically analyzed to achieve the analysis of the operating stability of the aluminum electrolytic cell. In this way, when the operating stability of the aluminum electrolytic cell is poor, a solution to improve the operation can be given in a targeted manner.

[0091] In some embodiments, after determining that the operation of the aluminum electrolysis cell is unstable, the state monitoring method further includes: analyzing a trend line graph to determine an improvement plan for the operation of the aluminum electrolysis cell.

[0092] Specifically, by analyzing the trend line graph, we can determine what operation caused the large fluctuation of the cosine similarity variance of the anode current distribution. Therefore, we can improve the operation in a targeted manner, for example, we can increase the depth of the anode, improve the material feeding interval, adjust the set voltage, and change the aluminum output.

[0093] In some embodiments, the condition monitoring method further includes: counting the operating stability of multiple aluminum electrolysis cells of the aluminum electrolysis equipment; and generating a maintenance plan based on the operating stability of the multiple aluminum electrolysis cells.

[0094] Specifically, by counting the operating stability of multiple aluminum electrolytic cells of an aluminum electrolytic equipment, it is possible to determine which aluminum electrolytic cells of the aluminum electrolytic equipment have more serious abnormal problems, which aluminum electrolytic cells have less abnormal problems, and which aluminum electrolytic cells have no abnormal problems. Therefore, a maintenance plan can be generated based on the operating stability of multiple aluminum electrolytic cells.

[0095] In the disclosed embodiment, the maintenance plan for multiple aluminum electrolysis cells can be determined by statistically analyzing the operating stability of multiple aluminum electrolysis cells of the aluminum electrolysis equipment. In this way, technicians can prioritize the maintenance of aluminum electrolysis cells with more serious abnormal problems, thereby improving the reliability of the operation of the aluminum electrolysis equipment.

The monitoring module 602 is also configured to issue a prompt message to slow down or pause the current operation when the cosine similarity is less than the second similarity threshold.
