Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of transformers, and in particular to a fast calculation method for multi-physical fields of oil-immersed transformers. Background Art
[0002] Winding temperature is a key monitoring parameter for evaluating the operating status of oil-immersed transformers, which directly affects the operating efficiency and service life of the transformer. Therefore, in-depth research on the distribution characteristics and evolution of the transformer winding temperature field is of great significance to ensure the safety and stable operation of the transformer. However, as a highly centralized and complex system, the oil-immersed transformer has complex dynamic relationships between multiple physical fields (magnetic, thermal, and fluid). Rapid and accurate calculation of the transformer winding temperature field has become an urgent problem to be solved in the current intersection of electrical engineering and computational science.
[0003] At present, the research methods of transformer temperature calculation mainly include sensor measurement, empirical formula method, thermal circuit model construction and numerical calculation simulation. Among them, although the direct sensor measurement method is accurate, it requires a large number of sensors to be arranged, which is costly and complex to maintain. The empirical formula method is simple to operate, but the accuracy is limited, and the structural characteristics of the transformer are not considered. The thermal circuit model is based on the hot spot analogy principle. It calculates the hot spots of the windings through circuit analysis. Although it can reflect the heat transfer process, the parameter setting is cumbersome. The above methods are difficult to fully obtain the internal temperature distribution of the transformer, so numerical calculation has become the mainstream. Numerical calculation solves the multi-physical field coupling of the transformer through finite element and finite difference methods, and analyzes the temperature changes in detail. However, due to the long calculation cycle of multi-physical field simulation and high computing power requirements, the real-time application of this method is limited. In order to improve the computing efficiency, scholars at home and abroad are exploring temperature prediction methods based on artificial intelligence algorithms. This method does not require an in-depth understanding of the complex structure of the transformer, but captures data features and designs a good model to achieve temperature prediction. Summary of the invention

Analyze the cycle process of its natural oil circulation, such as Figure 1 As shown, based on the conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy, a multi-physics field simulation analysis model is constructed, and boundary conditions such as transformer oil flow velocity, gravity acceleration and initial temperature are preset.
[0044] The conservation equations for mass, momentum, and energy are:
[0045]
[0046] Where ρ represents density, t represents time, v represents fluid velocity vector, p represents fluid pressure, η represents dynamic viscosity, f represents external force, T represents temperature, k represents thermal conductivity, C p represents specific heat capacity, and Q represents heat source.

[0048] S4, import the three-dimensional equivalent digital model divided into grids in S3 into the simulation software and set parameters to simulate the actual operating conditions of the transformer. At the same time, the operating losses under different working conditions are calculated by the load equivalent method and converted into heat sources to be applied to the transformer. The calculation formula for the operating loss is:
[0049]
[0050] Among them, P L and P N They represent load and no-load losses respectively, P represents total loss, I and I R Represents actual and rated current respectively.
[0051] S5. Calculate the ratio of operating loss to the volume of transformer structural parts and use it as the heat source density of transformer structural parts. The heat source density calculation formula is:
[0052] S = P / V (5);
[0053] S T =S0[1+β(T-T0)] (6);
[0054] Where S represents the heat source density, V represents the volume of the structure, and S T represents the heat source density at temperature T, S0 represents the heat source density at temperature T0, β represents the temperature coefficient.

[0062]
[0063] Among them, Obj represents the objective function, represents the loss function, Ω(f k ) represents a regular term, which is used to prevent the model from overfitting.
[0064] In S81 and S82, the input variables of the first XGBoost model formed are load coefficient, heat source density and ambient temperature, and the output variable is the temperature of the first position point. The input variables of the second model are added to the output variables of the previous model, and so on. The input variables of the preset number of models are load coefficient, heat source density, ambient temperature and temperature data of the preset number of positions minus 1, and the output variable is the temperature of the preset number of positions.
[0065] S83. Preset a number of position points for the transformer structure on average, and generate a preset number of XGBoost models at the same time. Use the temperature data of the position points as output variables and add them to the input variables of the next model. Finally, merge all the models to form an XGBoost fast calculation model that considers the spatial feature relationship. The output result of the model is the temperature field distribution result of the oil-immersed transformer. The algorithm flow is as follows: Figure 2 .
[0066] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned fast calculation method for the multi-physical field of oil-immersed transformers. By constructing an oil-immersed transformer model with a multi-physical field coupling mechanism, the multi-physical field simulation calculation results of the oil-immersed transformer under complex working conditions based on the model are used as input data sets and integrated into the XGBoost machine learning prediction model. It can not only efficiently process and analyze large-scale data, but also significantly reduce the overfitting risk in the model training process through its unique gradient boosting mechanism and regularization strategy, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the prediction results. In the process of constructing the XGBoost fast calculation model, the spatial feature relationship in the calculation of the temperature field of the oil-immersed transformer is fully considered, so that the model can more accurately reflect the dynamic change process of the internal temperature field of the transformer.
