AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, monitoring the throttle opening during the start-up process of diesel engines in nuclear power plants relies on manual video analysis. This is limited by environmental noise and vibration, and the low frame rate makes data comparison difficult and makes it impossible to accurately determine the diesel engine start-up process.
An industrial camera and vision controller are combined to acquire and analyze images of the diesel engine throttle lever opening dial in real time. The image processing algorithm identifies the pointer position and rotation radius, plots the opening change curve, and determines the diesel engine start-up process.
It enables precise monitoring of the diesel engine starting process in harsh environments, solves the problem of synchronous analysis of throttle lever opening signal and digital signal, and improves the accuracy of judgment.

The server 40 can be used to store image information or processed information. The server 40 can include a cloud server.
[0033] In some embodiments, the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening state monitoring device further comprises a display connected with the visual controller 20 or the server 40, and the display can be used to display graphic information or processed information.
[0034] In some embodiments, the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening state monitoring device further comprises a light source 50 mounted on or near the industrial camera 10. The light source 50 includes an LED light source. The light source 50 is arranged to improve the brightness so as to shoot clear image information.

[0035] In some embodiments, the industrial camera 10 and the visual controller 20 are connected through wired or wireless communication.
[0036] The nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening state monitoring device comprises an industrial camera 10, a visual controller 20 and the like. During the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100, the industrial camera 10 rapidly acquires the image of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening dial 101, and after the starting of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is completed, the acquired image is stored in the hard disk of the visual controller 20 in chronological order, and is analyzed frame by frame by the visual controller 20.
[0037] The analysis process is as follows: first, the position of the pointer in the image is identified by an image processing algorithm for each frame of image, and the reading of the pointer on each frame of image is calculated in combination with the rotation radius of the pointer and the dial scale. Then, the reading of each frame of image is combined with the photographing time of the image to draw the change curve of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening. Finally, whether the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is normal is judged according to the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening curve, and the running state of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is comprehensively judged according to the comparison between the actual speed of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 and the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening.
[0038] According to the change curve of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening, whether the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is normal is judged. During the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100, the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening pointer will change rapidly with the throttle size. By analyzing the change process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening pointer, whether the throttle opening of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is consistent with the speed curve of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is confirmed, so as to judge whether the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is normal. If the throttle opening of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is consistent with the speed curve of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100, the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is normal.
[0039] The application further discloses a nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening state monitoring method applied to the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening state monitoring device of the above-mentioned embodiment, and the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening state monitoring method comprises:
[0040] The image information of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening dial 101 is acquired.
[0041] The image information is analyzed frame by frame to judge whether the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 is normal.
[0042] In some embodiments, the frame-by-frame analysis of the image information comprises: analyzing the position of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree dial 101 pointer in each frame of image, and combining the rotation radius of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree dial 101 pointer and the dial scale of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree dial 101, the reading of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree dial 101 pointer in each frame of image is calculated.
[0043] In some embodiments, the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree state monitoring method further comprises: combining the reading of each frame of image with the photographing time of the image to draw a change curve of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree dial 101 pointer opening degree.
[0044] In some embodiments, whether the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 starting process is normal is judged according to the change curve of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree dial pointer opening degree. During the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100, the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree pointer will change rapidly with the throttle size. By analyzing the change process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree pointer, it is confirmed whether the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 throttle opening degree is consistent with the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 speed curve, so as to judge whether the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 starting process is normal. If the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 throttle opening degree is consistent with the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 speed curve, the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 starting process is normal.
[0045] It can be understood that, according to the current operation status of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100, the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree dial pointer will change rapidly with the throttle size during the starting process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100. The original diesel engine throttle opening degree pointer is a mechanical structure and cannot upload digital quantity. The present application analyzes the change process of the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree pointer through image processing, which is more accurate than eye observation, and can judge whether the nuclear power emergency diesel engine 100 starting process is normal, solving the difficulty that the nuclear power emergency diesel engine throttle lever opening degree signal cannot be analyzed synchronously with other diesel engine digital signals.
[0046] It can be understood that the above embodiments only express the preferred embodiments of the present application, which are described in detail and specifically, but cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present application; it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, the above technical features can be freely combined without departing from the concept of the present application, and some deformations and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the present application; therefore, any equivalent transformation and modification within the scope of the claims of the present application shall belong to the scope of the claims of the present application.
