[0047] Step six: When the explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value is less than or equal to the explosion-proof pressure relief judgment low value, start the first-level pressure relief valve to release pressure.

[0048] Example 2: Reference Figures 2 to 5 , including a hydrogen storage cylinder body 1, a multi-stage pressure relief system 2 fixed on the hydrogen storage cylinder body 1, an intelligent control unit 3 and a data acquisition system 4. The hydrogen storage cylinder body 1 is made of Q345R steel, with a wall thickness of 12mm and a design pressure of 1.6MPa.

[0049] The multi-stage pressure relief system 2 includes a first-stage pressure relief valve 21, a second-stage pressure relief valve 22 and an emergency pressure relief valve 23 connected in series. The first-stage pressure relief valve 21 adopts an electric regulating valve structure, and the flow capacity at the maximum opening of 100% is 50m³ / h. The opening can be continuously adjusted within the range of 0-100%, and the response time is less than 500ms; the second-stage pressure relief valve 22 adopts a direct-acting solenoid valve, normally closed, with a rated diameter of DN50, a rated pressure of PN16, and a response time of less than 100ms; the emergency pressure relief valve 23 adopts a bursting disc structure, with a bursting pressure of 1.8MPa±3%, and a bursting response time of less than 5ms.

[0050] The specific arrangement of the data acquisition system 4 is as follows: pressure sensors 41 are installed on the top, middle and bottom of the hydrogen storage cylinder body 1 respectively, using a diaphragm pressure transmitter with a measuring range of 0-2MPa, an accuracy level of 0.2, and a signal output of 4-20mA standard signal; the temperature sensor 42 uses a PT100 armored thermal resistor, which is arranged at different heights of the hydrogen storage cylinder body 1, with a temperature measurement range of -40°C to 200°C and a response time of less than 10s; the flow sensor 43 is installed on the pressure relief pipeline, using a DN50 vortex flowmeter, which is used to monitor the medium flow during the pressure relief process.

[0051] The intelligent control unit 3 adopts an industrial control cabinet structure, and is internally installed with a central processor 31, a storage module 32, a control execution module 33 and a human-machine interaction unit 34. The central processor 31 adopts an industrial-grade ARM processor with a main frequency of 1.2GHz and 4GB of running memory; the storage module 32 adopts a 128GB industrial-grade solid-state hard disk with a power-off protection function; the human-machine interaction unit 34 adopts a 10-inch capacitive touch screen with a resolution of 1920×1080 and supports multi-touch operation.

[0052] The control execution module 33 collects the internal pressure, internal temperature and medium flow of the hydrogen storage cylinder in real time, periodically obtains the predicted pressure Rk of the hydrogen storage cylinder, sets the predicted reference pressure (the predicted reference pressure is a pre-set pressure value), and activates the pressure relief warning when the predicted pressure is greater than the predicted reference pressure. When the predicted pressure is less than or equal to the predicted reference pressure, no further processing is performed.

[0053] When the pressure relief warning is activated, the predicted temperature PTtp and predicted flow PTin of the hydrogen storage cylinder are obtained, and the pressure relief associated value Bd of the internal temperature and the pressure relief associated value Es of the medium flow are obtained simultaneously. The explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value Sw is obtained.

[0054] The pressure relief correlation value of the internal temperature is obtained as follows: the average characteristic fluctuation value and the average connection characteristic value of the internal temperature are obtained and marked as , is the average characteristic fluctuation value of the internal temperature, is the average connection characteristic value of the internal temperature, obtain the average characteristic fluctuation value and the average connection characteristic value of the internal pressure, and mark them as , is the average characteristic fluctuation value of the internal pressure, is the average connection characteristic value of the internal pressure, and the pressure relief correlation value of the internal temperature is calculated using the cosine similarity algorithm.

[0056] Pressure relief correlation value .

[0057] The average characteristic fluctuation value is obtained as follows: obtain the characteristic analysis values ​​of the same parameter (parameters include internal pressure, internal temperature and medium flow) for e consecutive periods before the current time, sort all the characteristic analysis values ​​in the order of the corresponding periods, calculate the difference between the two adjacent characteristic analysis values ​​after sorting and take the absolute value to obtain the characteristic fluctuation value, sum up all the characteristic fluctuation values ​​and take the average to obtain the average characteristic fluctuation value.

[0058] The average connection characteristic value is obtained as follows: obtain the characteristic analysis values ​​of the same parameter for e consecutive periods before the current time, sort all the characteristic analysis values ​​in the order of the corresponding periods, sum the two adjacent characteristic analysis values ​​after sorting to obtain the connection characteristic value, sum all the connection characteristic values ​​and take the average to obtain the average connection characteristic value.

[0059] Set a high explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value and a low explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value (the high explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value is greater than the low explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value, and both the high explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value and the low explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value are pre-set thresholds). When the explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value is greater than or equal to the high explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value, start the emergency pressure relief valve to relieve pressure. When the explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value is between the high explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value and the low explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value, start the secondary pressure relief valve to relieve pressure. When the explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value is less than or equal to the low explosion-proof pressure relief judgment value, start the primary pressure relief valve to relieve pressure.

[0060] The predicted pressure of the hydrogen storage cylinder is obtained periodically, specifically: a historical pressure feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder is obtained, a data prediction model corresponding to the internal pressure is obtained, the historical pressure feature set is used as input data of the data prediction model, and the data prediction model outputs the predicted pressure of the hydrogen storage cylinder.

[0061] Obtain the predicted temperature and predicted flow of the hydrogen storage cylinder, specifically: obtain the historical temperature feature set and historical flow feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder, obtain the data prediction model corresponding to the internal temperature and medium flow, input the historical temperature feature set and the historical flow feature set into the corresponding data prediction model respectively, and output the predicted temperature and predicted flow of the hydrogen storage cylinder.

[0062] The method for obtaining the historical pressure feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder is as follows: obtain the pressure features of the hydrogen storage cylinder for multiple consecutive periods before the current time, combine the pressure features of multiple periods, and obtain the historical pressure feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder.

[0063] The method for obtaining the historical temperature feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder is as follows: obtain the temperature features of the hydrogen storage cylinder for multiple consecutive periods before the current time, combine the temperature features of the multiple periods, and obtain the historical temperature feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder.

[0064] The method for obtaining the historical flow feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder is as follows: obtain the flow features of the hydrogen storage cylinder for multiple consecutive periods before the current time, combine the flow features of multiple periods, and obtain the historical flow feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder.

[0065] The pressure characteristics of a cycle are obtained as follows: all internal pressures of the hydrogen storage cylinder within a cycle are collected, and data preprocessing and feature extraction are performed on all internal pressures (data preprocessing methods include data cleaning, etc., and feature extraction methods include statistical feature extraction, time series feature extraction, etc.), to obtain the pressure characteristics of the cycle (the temperature characteristics and flow characteristics of a cycle are obtained in the same way, which will not be repeated here).

[0066] The internal pressure, internal temperature and medium flow rate correspond to a data prediction model respectively. Each data prediction model is constructed based on the LSTM model. The construction process of the data prediction model corresponding to the internal pressure is as follows: collect the historical pressure feature sets of v hydrogen storage cylinders (if the data prediction model corresponding to the internal temperature is constructed, collect the historical temperature feature sets of v hydrogen storage cylinders), construct the LSTM model, use the historical pressure feature sets of the hydrogen storage cylinders as the training data of the LSTM model, assign a predicted pressure to each training data, and the predicted pressure is the predicted internal pressure of the hydrogen storage cylinder in the next cycle (if the data prediction model corresponding to the internal temperature is constructed, assign a predicted temperature to each training data, and the predicted temperature is the predicted internal temperature of the hydrogen storage cylinder in the next cycle), divide the training data into a training set and a validation set according to a set ratio of 5:1, train the training set and the validation set, and after the training is completed, construct a data prediction model corresponding to the internal pressure.

[0067] The internal pressure, internal temperature and medium flow rate correspond to a feature analysis model respectively. Each feature analysis model is constructed based on the deep learning model. The construction process of the feature analysis model corresponding to the internal pressure is as follows: collect the pressure characteristics of L cycles (if the feature analysis model corresponding to the internal temperature is constructed, collect the temperature characteristics of L cycles), construct the deep learning model, and use the historical pressure feature set of the hydrogen storage cylinder as the training data of the deep learning model. A feature analysis value is assigned to each training data. The value range of the feature analysis value is (3.0~8.0). The larger the feature analysis value, the more abnormal the internal pressure in the cycle is, and the smaller the feature analysis value, the more abnormal the internal pressure in the cycle is (if the feature analysis model corresponding to the internal temperature is constructed, the larger the feature analysis value, the more abnormal the internal temperature in the cycle is, and the smaller the feature analysis value, the more abnormal the internal temperature in the cycle is). The training data is divided into a training set, a validation set and a test set according to a set ratio of 4:1:1, and the training set, validation set and test set are trained. After the training is completed, a feature analysis model for the internal pressure is constructed.

[0068] The working process of the present invention includes three stages: system initialization, normal operation and emergency disposal:

[0069] System initialization phase:

[0070] 1) Power-on self-test: Check whether all sensor signals are normal and whether all actuators are in place;

[0071] 2) Parameter loading: reading control parameters and historical data from the storage module 32;

[0072] 3) Communication confirmation: Establish data communication between modules to ensure normal data transmission;

[0073] 4) Preheating standby: The device will enter normal operation after preheating for 3 minutes.

[0074] Normal operation stage:

[0075] 1) Data acquisition: The system collects parameters such as pressure, temperature, flow, etc. in a cycle of 100ms;

[0076] 2) Data processing: pre-processing such as filtering and calibration of the collected data;

[0077] 3) Trend prediction: Perform pressure trend prediction every 1 second to predict the pressure change in the next 30 seconds;

[0078] 4) Control decision: select appropriate control strategy based on prediction results;

[0079] 5) Execution control: Execute corresponding control actions based on the decision results.

[0080] Emergency treatment stage:

[0081] When the following situations occur, the system enters the emergency handling stage:

[0082] 1) The pressure rises rapidly and exceeds 90% of the set value;

[0083] 2) Main sensor failure;

[0084] 3) The control actuator responds abnormally;

[0085] 4) Manually trigger emergency shutdown.

[0086] After entering the emergency handling stage, the system will follow the following steps:

[0087] 1) Immediately start the secondary pressure relief valve 22 to quickly release pressure;

[0088] 2) Send out sound and light alarm signals to alert on-site operators;

[0089] 3) Cut off the associated feeding system;

[0090] 4) Record system status data when the fault occurs;

[0091] 5) If the pressure continues to rise to 1.8MPa, the emergency pressure relief valve 23 will automatically burst.

[0092] Taking actual application as an example, the typical control process of the present invention is described:

[0093] When the system detects that the pressure begins to rise abnormally, the intelligent control unit 3 analyzes the pressure change trend through a deep learning algorithm. If the pressure is predicted to exceed 1.2MPa in the short term, the system first starts the first-stage pressure relief valve 21 for pre-release. The opening of the first-stage pressure relief valve 21 is calculated and adjusted in real time by the control execution module 33. The initial opening is set to 30%, and then dynamically adjusted according to the pressure change.

[0094] If the primary pressure relief effect is not ideal and the pressure continues to rise to 1.4MPa, the system will automatically start the secondary pressure relief valve 22. At this time, the primary pressure relief valve 21 remains fully open, and the secondary pressure relief valve 22 adopts a pulsed opening method, with each opening time of 2s and closing time of 1s. In this way, the pressure is reduced in a step-by-step manner to avoid the impact caused by a sudden drop in system pressure.

[0095] In extreme cases, such as a serious equipment failure causing a sharp rise in pressure, when the pressure reaches 1.8MPa, the bursting disc of the emergency pressure relief valve 23 will automatically rupture and complete the pressure relief action within 5ms to ensure the safety of the equipment. The system also records all operating parameters 60s before the failure occurs, providing a basis for subsequent accident analysis.
