[0042] In a preferred embodiment, in step S4, the data packets collected asynchronously are synchronously aligned and corrected, and a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network containing 128 hidden units is constructed to predict the thermal inertia dynamic characteristics in the chilled water system.

[0058] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0059] The present invention deploys a distributed optical fiber sensing network, screens environmental data in a water-cooled air conditioner adaptive system using a sliding time window algorithm, enables an IIR digital filter to suppress noise and enters a thermal inertia compensation mechanism, constructs an LSTM neural network based on the initial system thermal inertia to predict thermal disturbances in subsequent multiple control cycles, introduces a spatio-temporal alignment compensation matrix to suppress harmonic oscillations in the thermal inertia compensation mechanism, generates a thermal compensation correction amount using a dual closed-loop correction method based on the predicted thermal disturbances and the chilled water flow rate in the air conditioner, detects the environmental load, sets a variable structure sliding mode controller to switch the gain of the dual closed-loop correction method, synchronously aligns and corrects asynchronously collected data packets using an improved DTW algorithm through a timing alignment engine, sets a bending window and performs feature fusion to judge the environmental data collection points and their abnormal collection response rates, and realizes the thermal inertia compensation closed loop of the water-cooled air conditioner.

[0060] Embodiment, an adaptive control method for water-cooled air conditioners in computer rooms based on big data analysis, as follows Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, includes the following steps:

[0061] Step S1: Deploy a distributed optical fiber sensing network, use a sliding time window algorithm to screen environmental data in the water-cooled air conditioner adaptive system, and enable an IIR digital filter to suppress noise and enter the thermal inertia compensation mechanism;

[0062] Step S2: Based on the initial system thermal inertia, construct an LSTM neural network to predict thermal disturbances in subsequent multiple control cycles, and introduce a spatio-temporal alignment compensation matrix to suppress harmonic oscillations in the thermal inertia compensation mechanism;

[0063] Step S3: Synthesize the predicted thermal disturbances and the chilled water flow rate in the air conditioner, use a dual closed-loop correction method to generate a thermal compensation correction amount, detect the environmental load, and set a variable structure sliding mode controller to switch the gain of the dual closed-loop correction method;

[0064] Step S4: Use an improved DTW algorithm through a timing alignment engine to perform synchronous alignment correction on asynchronously collected data packets, set a warping window and perform feature fusion to judge the environmental data collection points and their abnormal collection response rates.

[0065] The specific implementation is as follows:

[0066] In step S1, when deploying a distributed optical fiber sensing network, on the surface of the main pipe and branch pipes of the chilled water circuit, select an optical fiber Bragg grating (FBG) array inscribed by ultraviolet laser direct writing method with a spacing of 0.8 mm. This technology has the characteristics of high precision and high stability, and can effectively monitor temperature changes;

[0067] Each group of sensor nodes is designed to contain 4 FBG sensors and is arranged in a 120° circular distribution to ensure that the temperature distribution information of the pipe section can be comprehensively captured. For example, in the chilled water pipe, the water temperature change may be uneven due to the influence of flow rate, pipe wall thermal conductivity and external environmental temperature. The circular arrangement can more accurately obtain these temperature gradient information and provide basic data for subsequent analysis;

[0068] To achieve multiplexing, the sensor network uses wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology. The center wavelength is set in the range of 1529.55 nm to 1567.36 nm, and the wavelength interval is set to 0.8 nm. In this way, multiple signals can be transmitted simultaneously in the same optical fiber, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of data collection;

[0069] For example, in a large - scale chilled - water pipe network, a control unit may contain hundreds of FBG sensors. If each sensor needs to be independently connected, it will lead to complex wiring and high costs. The WDM technology can enable multiple sensors to share the same optical fiber, significantly reducing the amount of optical fiber used and lowering the system cost.

[0070] Adopt a sampling rate of 5 Hz and a resolution of 0.01 °C to obtain environmental data and transmit it to the central controller. Among them, the environmental data is the temperature change rate of the chilled - water storage tank.

[0071] Perform dynamic data screening based on environmental data using the sliding - time - window algorithm as follows:

[0072] Pre - processing: Initialize the window length and step size, and mark the window length as T_win.

[0073] Generate a parameter sequence: After performing dimensionless operation on each environmental data, generate a parameter sequence ;

[0074] It represents the data sequence within the sampling time window, that is, the measurement data collected within a specific time window T_win.

[0075] Calculate the standard - deviation rate , where is the standard deviation of the parameter sequence, is the mean of the parameter sequence;

[0076] Kurtosis coefficient ;

[0077] Among them, kurtosis is used to measure the steepness of the data distribution. Generally speaking, when the kurtosis coefficient is approximately equal to 3, the data follows a normal distribution. When the kurtosis coefficient is greater than 3, the data is concentrated near the mean. When the kurtosis coefficient is less than 3, the data shows a flat distribution;

[0078] In the formula, is each data point in the sequence, is the mean of the sequence, is the standard deviation of the parameter sequence, and n is the total number of data points;

[0079] For example, effective data screening conditions can be set:

[0080] When SDR < 0.15 and |Kurtosis - 3| < 1, it is determined as stable - operating - condition data for system analysis and decision - making;

[0081] When the flow - rate change rate > 15% / min, shorten T_win to half of the previous time and enable an IIR digital filter for high - frequency noise suppression, with the cut - off frequency set to 0.5 Hz.

[0082] Among them, the calculation formula for the flow rate change rate is:

[0083] ;

[0084] In the formula, is the flow rate at the current moment t, is the flow rate at the previous moment ; is the sampling time interval;

[0085] It should be noted that the IIR digital filter is a common signal processing tool used to remove high-frequency noise and smooth data. Its characteristics include using recursive calculation, where the output value can depend on the current input value and also on past output values;

[0086] In this system, the IIR digital filter is enabled for high-frequency noise suppression, and the cut-off frequency is set to 0.5 Hz, which means the system will filter out fluctuations above 0.5 Hz, thereby reducing short-term noise interference and making the flow rate data more stable, which is helpful for subsequent analysis and control;

[0087] In step S2, an LSTM neural network is constructed based on the initial system thermal inertia to predict thermal disturbances in subsequent multiple control cycles. The specific steps are as follows:

[0088] Construct an LSTM network with multiple hidden units. The input layer receives the system thermal inertia at multiple time points, which are respectively marked as: ;

[0089] Among them, is the load prediction data for the past 10 seconds, is the return water temperature for the past 5 seconds, is the heat transfer rate change data for the past 3 seconds;

[0090] Hidden layer: Adopt multiple LSTM units to learn the thermal inertia characteristics of the system;

[0091] The number of LSTM units in the specific hidden layer is not limited, but is set by the experimenter according to the specific implementation method and will not be elaborated here;

[0092] The output layer predicts thermal disturbances in the next n control cycles, that is ;

[0093] The training uses the Nadam optimizer, which combines the advantages of the NAG accelerated gradient and the Adam algorithm, improving the training convergence speed and stability;

[0094] Set the initial learning rate to 0.001, the batch size to 256, and the loss function is defined as:

[0095] ;

[0096] Wherein, MAE is the mean absolute error for measuring the difference between the predicted value and the true value;

[0097] Wherein, the calculation formula of the mean squared logarithmic error MSLE is:

[0098] ;

[0099] Wherein, MSLE is applicable to the case of a large prediction range and can reduce the influence of extreme errors;

[0100] In the formula, is the regularization term, which is used to control the model complexity and prevent overfitting. Specifically, the regularization coefficient λ = 0.01;

[0101] Define the calculation rule of the compensation coefficient in the spatio-temporal alignment compensation matrix:

[0102] When the time deviation is less than half of the thermal inertia time constant, the calculation rule of the compensation coefficient is: ;

[0103] When the time deviation is greater than half of the thermal inertia time constant, the calculation rule of the compensation coefficient is: ;

[0104] Wherein, is the tracking error, and the harmonic oscillation in the compensation process is suppressed through the above calculation rule;

[0105] It should be noted that in data flow analysis, if the SDR of temperature data is less than 0.15 and |Kurtosis - 3| < 1 within a certain period of time, it is determined that the data belongs to stable operating condition data, otherwise abnormal data needs to be further screened or filtered;

[0106] For example, during the operation of a chilled water pipe network, if there is a sudden increase in flow when the pump starts, the system can automatically shorten the time window to capture key data and suppress high-frequency noise, improving the monitoring accuracy;

[0107] In step S3, the specific steps for generating the thermal compensation correction amount using the double closed-loop correction method are as follows:

[0108] Definition of the state vector: ;

[0109] In the formula, τ is the thermal inertia time constant, Ceq is the equivalent heat capacity, and Qacc is the cumulative thermal deviation;

[0110] Among them, τ reflects the response speed of the system to temperature changes, Ceq measures the heat storage capacity of the system, which directly affects the heat compensation calculation, and Qacc records the heat loss or accumulation of the system to adjust the compensation strategy;

[0111] For example, in practical applications, if the change in the equivalent heat capacity Ceq of the chilled water tank exceeds the normal range (such as increasing by more than 10%), it may mean that there is scaling inside the tank or the heat transfer efficiency has decreased, and maintenance or cleaning is required.

[0112] Adaptive adjustment formula for the observation matrix:

[0113] ;

[0114] In the formula, When the change in the heat compensation amount is large, the system reduces the compensation intensity to avoid over-adjustment. 0.8 is a preset fixed weight to stabilize the influence of the observation data. is the time decay factor, which ensures that the influence of new observation data on the compensation amount gradually decreases and prevents short-term fluctuations from disturbing the system stability;

[0115] Set the trigger rule: When the residual covariance satisfies the following inequality, that is, when ;

[0116] The system triggers the parameter update mechanism, and the calculation formula of the gain matrix is as follows:

[0117] ;

[0118] Among them, the process noise covariance is set to: , and the observation noise covariance is set to: ;

[0119] In the formula, 0.02 corresponds to the perturbation of the thermal inertia time constant, 0.01 corresponds to the error of the equivalent heat capacity, and 0.05 corresponds to the correction of the cumulative heat deviation;

[0120] Among them, the observation noise covariance is used to limit the influence of measurement errors and ensure the system stability;

[0121] It should be noted that the core of the double closed-loop correction method lies in real-time adjustment of the compensation parameters to optimize the system response, thereby ensuring the efficient and stable operation of the chilled water system, which will not be elaborated here;

[0122] In step S4, the data packets collected asynchronously are synchronously aligned and corrected, and a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network containing 128 hidden units is constructed to predict the thermal inertia dynamic characteristics in the chilled water system.

[0123] The data packets collected asynchronously include load prediction, return water temperature, supply water temperature, compressor power, condenser temperature difference, evaporator heat exchange efficiency, ambient temperature, cooling tower fan speed, chilled water flow rate, and pump pressure, which are respectively labeled as 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 , and all the asynchronously collected data packets are regarded as ten-dimensional time series data;

[0124] Define the input features and define the ten-dimensional time series data as the input features;

[0125] For example, in a chilled water system, the ambient temperature and the dynamic change of the cooling tower fan speed will directly affect the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser , and thus affect the overall refrigeration performance. Therefore, the dynamic correlation of these parameters must be incorporated into the input layer of the LSTM neural network to achieve accurate modeling.

[0126] Network training and optimization: The Adam optimization algorithm is adopted, the initial learning rate is set to 0.001, and the learning rate decay rate is dynamically adjusted to 0.95 every 10 rounds of iteration; The loss function uses the mean squared error (MSE):

[0127] ;

[0128] The training data volume is set to 100,000 time steps, and the sliding window method (window size = 50s) is used for data augmentation;

[0129] Perform cross-validation: Adopt K-fold cross-validation (K = 5) to determine the environmental data collection points in the preset time steps;

[0130] For example, during the experiment, if the error of the LSTM model on the test data continuously exceeds 2.5%, it may indicate that there is a lag effect in the input data, and it is necessary to adjust the time window size or increase the data normalization preprocessing to improve the prediction accuracy;

[0131] Among them, the normalization processing can use min-max normalization to scale the input data to the interval [0,1] to reduce the learning bias caused by numerical differences;

[0132] The dynamic thermal inertia of the chilled water system is mainly affected by the coupling of multiple physical fields such as fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and electrical load characteristics. To improve the compensation accuracy, a multi-physical field coupling compensation mechanism is adopted, and a multi-field model based on the finite element method (FEM) is designed, including:

[0133] Thermal field compensation calculates the change in thermal inertia of the chilled water pipeline through the finite difference method (FDM), and the compensation formula is as follows:

[0134] ;

[0135] In the formula, is the specific heat capacity, is the fluid mass flow rate, is the heat transfer coefficient of the pipe wall, is the heat transfer area, is the temperature difference, is the differential element of the pipe length;

[0136] For example: when the chilled water flow rate decreases (e.g., from 0.2 m / s to 0.1 m / s), the heat transfer efficiency of the pipeline decreases, and the compensation parameters need to be automatically adjusted to avoid overcooling or overheating.

[0137] Electric power load field compensation: predicts the transient fluctuation of the compressor power through a support vector regression model, and the compensation formula is as follows:

[0138] ;

[0139] Among them, k is an adaptive adjustment factor, which is updated in real time with the load change, is the compensated compressor power, is the currently measured compressor power, is the change rate of the temperature difference between supply and return water;

[0140] For example: when there are large fluctuations in the power grid of the chilled water plant (e.g., a 5% voltage drop), the system automatically adjusts the operating curve of the cooling tower fan to ensure stable power.

[0141] It should be noted that the support vector regression (SVR) for electric power load field compensation is only applicable to the prediction of short-term power fluctuations that are linear or weakly non-linear. If the power disturbance is large or the degree of non-linearity is high, the LSTM or Transformer structure may be more optimal. This solution uses SVR for prediction, but for complex power grid disturbance scenarios, more complex deep learning methods can be used for optimization, which will not be elaborated here.
