[0075] Under transient operating conditions of the unit, the rise in volute pressure and the drop in tailwater pipe pressure are unstable, posing safety issues. The peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation is the most direct reflection of whether the pressure at the measuring point is stable. Under steady-state conditions, when the analysis duration meets certain conditions, the peak-to-peak size is approximately independent of the duration; under transient conditions, the analysis duration is long, and the peak-to-peak value cannot accurately reflect the pressure variation pattern, while the analysis duration is short, and the peak-to-peak value is meaningless or unstable. Therefore, it is necessary to process the peak-to-peak value analysis of pressure pulsation under transient conditions to obtain a more accurate peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation. Therefore, how to reduce the detection error of the peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation under transient conditions and improve detection efficiency has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0076] In light of this, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and related equipment for detecting the peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation at a hydropower station unit under transient conditions. By employing variational modal decomposition (VMD) technology to decompose the pressure signal at the target location of the hydropower station unit, trend terms and pulsation terms are obtained. Signal mapping is then used to calculate the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation term at different cycle lengths, thereby determining the peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation. This method improves the accuracy of peak-to-peak pressure pulsation measurements under transient conditions, providing reasonable and accurate technical support for relevant pressure data analysis.

[0077] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 A schematic flow chart of a method for detecting the peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation of a hydropower station unit under transient conditions according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The method for detecting the peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation of a hydropower station unit under transient conditions according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be deployed on a server or client side. Figure 3 In the method 300 for detecting the peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation of a hydropower station unit under transient conditions, the method 300 may further include the following steps.

[0078] In step S310, a pressure pulsation signal at a preset position in the hydropower station unit is obtained.

[0079] Among them, the preset position can refer to a specific position in the hydropower station unit that is pre-set according to the design and monitoring requirements and is equipped with a sensor. These positions are usually selected in places that can reflect key information about the operating status of the unit, such as the volute inlet, the tailwater pipe outlet, the periphery of the guide vane, etc., because these areas are easily affected by the hydrodynamic effects. The pressure pulsation signal can refer to the pressure fluctuations generated inside the pipe or specific structural parts due to factors such as the non-uniformity of the water flow, eddy currents, cavitation, etc. when the water flows through the volute, the water guide mechanism, the impeller, etc. during the operation of the hydropower station. This pressure fluctuation that changes rapidly over time is called a pressure pulsation signal, which contains rich information about the operating status of the unit. Sensors can be set at preset positions to sense physical quantities (such as pressure) and convert them into electrical signals. For example, piezoresistive and piezoelectric pressure sensors can monitor pressure changes in real time and convert pressure values ​​into electrical signals for analysis.

[0080] In step S320, the pressure pulsation signal is decomposed to obtain corresponding trend item signals and pulsation item signals.

[0081] Among them, VMD technology can be applied to the collected pressure pulsation signals respectively. VMD decomposes the signal into a series of physically meaningful intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) through an iterative optimization process. Each IMF represents a specific frequency component of the signal, including a trend term (low-frequency component) and a pulsation term (high-frequency component). Specifically, the volute inlet pressure pulsation signal and the tailwater pipe inlet pressure pulsation signal under transient conditions can be collected by sensors. The original pressure pulsation signal is decomposed into multiple IMF components using variational mode decomposition technology for the volute inlet pressure pulsation signal and the tailwater pipe inlet pressure pulsation signal under transient conditions, and each IMF component is convolved to extract local features to obtain the trend term signal and pulsation term signal of the pressure pulsation signal.

[0082] In some embodiments, decomposing the pressure pulsation signal to obtain corresponding trend item signals and pulsation item signals includes:

[0083] Decomposing the pressure pulsation signal into a plurality of intrinsic mode function components;

[0084] Convolution and local feature extraction are performed on each of the intrinsic mode function components to obtain the trend item signal and the pulsation item signal.

[0085] In some embodiments, performing convolution and local feature extraction on each of the intrinsic mode function components to obtain the trend term signal and the pulsation term signal includes:

[0086] Extracting a low-frequency portion of the intrinsic mode function component to obtain the trend term signal;

[0087] The high-frequency part of the intrinsic mode function component is extracted to obtain the pulsating term signal.

[0088] Convolution is performed on each IMF component to extract local signal features, enhance the ability to identify signal details, and facilitate subsequent feature analysis. Based on the convolution results, trend and pulsation terms are separated. The trend term reflects the long-term trend of the signal, while the pulsation term reflects the instantaneous fluctuation characteristics of the signal.

[0089] In step S330, signal mapping processing is performed on the trend item signal and the pulsation item signal to obtain the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation item under different cycle lengths.

[0090] The signal mapping process calculates the time points corresponding to the maximum and minimum eigenvalues ​​in the trend term. This helps understand the overall trend of the signal. The pulsation term is periodically analyzed, calculating the peak-to-peak value (i.e., the difference between the maximum and minimum values ​​of the signal) at different periods. A weighted average method (0.2k + 0.8 in the formula) is used to comprehensively consider the importance of different periods, where k is the period number and n is the total number of periods. This step aims to extract the typical fluctuation amplitude of the pulsation term.

[0091] In some embodiments, performing signal mapping processing on the trend item signal and the pulsation item signal to obtain peak-to-peak values ​​of the pulsation item at different cycle lengths includes:

[0092] Determining a first time node corresponding to a maximum eigenvalue and a second time node corresponding to a minimum eigenvalue in the trend item;

[0093] For each cycle length, the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation term is obtained based on the difference between the maximum and minimum times of the pulsation term within the cycle length.

[0094] In some embodiments, determining a first time node corresponding to a maximum eigenvalue and a second time node corresponding to a minimum eigenvalue in the trend item includes:

[0095] Obtaining the first time node based on the time node in the trend item time linked list pointed to by the first pointer of the maximum eigenvalue;

[0096] Determine at least one cycle length based on the first time node and / or the second time node;

[0097] The second time node is obtained based on the time node in the trend item time linked list pointed to by the second pointer of the minimum eigenvalue.

[0098] Among them, since it is impossible to obtain the time node of the transient moment of the signal through the pulsation term, the corresponding time node can be determined through the trend term, and then mapped to the pulsation term to determine the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation term at the corresponding time node. For example, if the time node corresponding to the maximum eigenvalue of the trend term is 3s, then 2.8s to 3.2s can be taken and mapped to the pulsation term within this time interval, and the pulsation term data is used to calculate the peak-to-peak value. Specifically, the extraction formula for the time node corresponding to the maximum / minimum trend term eigenvalue may include: the time node corresponding to the maximum trend term eigenvalue = the pointer to the maximum eigenvalue of the trend term → the time list of the trend term; the time node corresponding to the minimum trend term eigenvalue = the pointer to the minimum eigenvalue of the trend term → the time list of the trend term.

[0099] In step S340, the average value of the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation item at different cycle lengths is calculated to obtain the peak-to-peak value of the pressure pulsation at the preset position.

[0100] In some embodiments, calculating the average of the peak-to-peak values ​​of the pulsation terms at different cycle lengths comprises:

[0101] Wherein, A is the average value, n is the number of different cycle lengths, and k is the sequence number of the cycle length.

[0102] Specifically, a signal mapping process can be performed on the trend and pulsation terms of the volute inlet pressure pulsation signal to obtain the peak-to-peak values ​​of the pulsation term of the volute inlet pressure pulsation signal at different periods with a confidence level of 97% (quantiles of 1.5% and 98.5%). A signal mapping process can be performed on the trend and pulsation terms of the draft tube inlet pressure pulsation signal obtained through the modal variation module to obtain the peak-to-peak values ​​of the pulsation term of the draft tube inlet pressure pulsation signal at different periods with a confidence level of 97% (quantiles of 1.5% and 98.5%). The average values ​​are respectively taken as the peak-to-peak values ​​of the volute inlet pressure pulsation and the draft tube inlet pressure pulsation under this transient operating condition.

[0103] In some embodiments, calculating the average of the peak-to-peak values ​​of the pulsation terms at different cycle lengths further includes:

[0104] Calculating the confidence level of the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation term corresponding to each cycle length;

[0105] The average value is calculated based on the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation item corresponding to the confidence level being greater than or equal to the confidence level threshold.

[0106] To improve the robustness of the analysis, a 97% confidence level (excluding the most extreme 1.5% and 98.5% data points) can be used to calculate the confidence intervals for the peak-to-peak values ​​of the pulsation term at different periods. This helps eliminate outliers and ensures the reliability of the results. The representative peak-to-peak values ​​for the transient operating conditions are determined based on the calculated average peak-to-peak values ​​of the pulsation term (taking into account the confidence interval) for the pressure pulsation signals at the volute inlet and the draft tube inlet. This provides an important quantitative indicator for evaluating system operating status and predicting potential failures.

[0107] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a method for detecting the peak-to-peak value of pressure pulsation of a hydropower station unit under transient conditions according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 4In this test, the operating condition can be set as follows: a single unit operating normally at 306MW load is suddenly reduced to 100% of its rated load. This simulates the system response to an emergency shutdown or sudden load change in a hydropower station transient test scenario. Environmental conditions can include an upper reservoir water level of 580.47m and a lower reservoir water level of 229.76m, from which the head difference can be analyzed. Pressure sensors can be installed at the volute inlet and the draft tube inlet to continuously record pressure pulsation signals when a sudden load change occurs, providing raw data for subsequent analysis.

[0108] The pressure pulsation data detected by the sensor is analyzed using the variational mode decomposition (VMD) method to obtain the IMF components. These IMF components are then convolved to obtain the pressure pulsation trend and pulsation terms. For example, through signal mapping calculations, the maximum eigenvalue of the trend term at the volute inlet pressure measurement point occurs at 24.79 seconds, while the minimum eigenvalue of the trend term at the tailwater inlet pressure measurement point occurs at 22.51 seconds. The peak-to-peak value of the pressure pulsation within each cycle is calculated with a 97% confidence level for cycles of 1T, 1.2T, 1.3T, and finally 3.0T. It can be seen that the peak-to-peak value of the pressure pulsation at the volute inlet and draft tube inlet pressure measurement points varies smoothly over different time periods. The average value is taken as the final peak-to-peak value of the pressure pulsation. Based on field measurements, this result is more accurate than the peak-to-peak value of the pressure pulsation calculated over a single time period.

[0109] Therefore, the method according to the disclosed embodiment uses variational modal decomposition to decompose the pressure signal at the target location of the hydropower station unit to obtain trend terms and pulsation terms. Signal mapping is then used to calculate the peak-to-peak value of the pulsation term at different cycle lengths, thereby determining the peak-to-peak value of the pressure pulsation. This improves the accuracy of peak-to-peak pressure pulsation detection under transient conditions and provides reasonable and accurate technical support for related pressure data analysis.
