[0047] Reference Figure 1-2 The present invention provides a valve flow prediction method based on valve pressure difference, comprising:
[0048] S1. Valve status monitoring and data collection: 1.1. Install multiple sensors on the valve to monitor the working status of the valve and related working condition data in real time. The sensors include differential pressure sensor, temperature sensor, and flow sensor; 1.2. Collect valve data in real time, including differential pressure, flow, temperature, working time, etc., and store them in the database for subsequent analysis;
[0049] S2. Flow prediction: Flow prediction is performed through a flow prediction model based on valve pressure difference, flow rate, and valve aging and wear;
[0050] S3. Real-time health assessment and adjustment: 3.1. Evaluate the aging and wear of the valve by real-time monitoring of the working status of the valve; 3.2. Dynamically adjust the parameters of the prediction model based on the real-time health assessment results;
[0051] S4. Abnormal detection and early warning: 4.1. Set the tolerance range of valve flow and pressure difference, and detect abnormal conditions in flow prediction by comparing real-time monitoring with predicted values; 4.2. If abnormalities are found, trigger the early warning mechanism, immediately sound an alarm and send a warning signal to the operator;
[0052] S5. Data recording and feedback optimization: The deviation between each prediction and actual flow is recorded to provide data support for subsequent algorithm optimization.
[0053] The traffic prediction model algorithm is as follows:
[0054]
[0055] Among them: F flow (t) represents the basic part of flow calculation, including the influence of pressure difference, aging wear degree and flow state; F wear (t) represents the long-term impact of the accumulated effect of wear over time on flow changes; ∈(t) is the external disturbance factor, which represents the impact of environmental changes on the fluid, such as temperature and fluid density. This formula comprehensively considers multiple factors such as valve aging wear effect, pressure difference, flow rate and external environmental factors, and can more accurately reflect the impact of valve wear on flow prediction.
[0056] Furthermore, F flow (t) The specific calculation formula is as follows:
[0057] F flow (t)=μ·ΔP(t)·σ(ω(t))·f1(ΔP(t),t)
[0058] Where: μ is a fluid-related constant; ΔP(t) is the valve pressure difference at the current moment; σ(ω(t)) is the wear coefficient, which reflects the impact of valve wear on flow, and changes with the increase of wear degree ω(t), and the value range of ω(t) is 0 to 1; f1(ΔP(t), t) is a nonlinear function that describes the change of valve flow, considering the complex relationship between pressure difference and time. This formula is used for the basic part of flow calculation and is affected by pressure difference and aging wear degree.
[0059] Furthermore, F wear (t) The specific calculation formula is as follows:
[0060]
[0061] Where: αe -β(t-τ) Used to describe the attenuation effect of wear, where α is the initial coefficient of wear rate and β represents the rate of wear attenuation; It is used to describe the impact of wear on flow. γ is the sensitivity of wear to flow. ω(τ) is the wear at the historical moment τ. This part is used to represent the cumulative effect of wear over time and its long-term impact on flow.
[0062] Furthermore, the mathematical formula of the early warning mechanism is expressed as follows:
[0063]
[0064] Where: Alert(t) indicates whether the warning is triggered at time t, 1 for triggering and 0 for not triggering; E(t) is the flow error; E threshold It is a preset error threshold. If it exceeds this value, an early warning will be triggered. The traffic flow is monitored in real time through this early warning mechanism, and the early warning mechanism can be triggered in time when an abnormality occurs.
[0065] Furthermore, the specific calculation formula of E(t) is as follows:
[0066] E(t=|Q actual (t)-Q(t)|
[0067] Where: Q actual (t) is the actual flow collected in real time. By calculating the difference between the actual flow and the predicted flow, it is determined whether it exceeds the predetermined threshold and whether it is abnormal.
[0068] Furthermore, the early warning mechanism can be directly triggered when it detects the following situations:
[0069]
[0070] σ(ω(t))>σ threshold
[0071] Where: ΔP min is the minimum preset value of the pressure difference; ΔP max is the maximum preset value of the pressure difference; σ threshold It is the preset value of the aging wear coefficient. When the pressure difference suddenly becomes abnormal, for example, it is far beyond the expected range, even if the wear coefficient and other factors have not changed significantly, the early warning mechanism will be triggered. When the wear degree increases sharply and exceeds the preset value, it indicates that the valve is excessively worn, which will also trigger the early warning mechanism.
[0072] This embodiment also provides a valve flow prediction system based on valve pressure difference, including:
[0073] Data acquisition module: The data collected by each sensor is transmitted to the data acquisition module through the interface for real-time processing and caching. After the data format is standardized, it is sent to downstream processing;

[0076] Abnormal warning module: including: abnormal detection unit: real-time monitoring, detecting abnormalities by comparing with predicted values; warning unit: once the abnormal detection unit finds that the valve state is abnormal and the deviation in flow prediction exceeds the set threshold, it will send a warning message.
[0077] This embodiment also provides a computer device, which is suitable for a valve flow prediction method based on valve pressure difference, including: a memory and a processor; the memory is used to store computer executable instructions, and the processor is used to execute computer executable instructions to implement a valve flow prediction method based on valve pressure difference as proposed in the above embodiment.
