[0001] The present application relates to the field of data processing, and particularly to a cooling method, device and electronic device based on the local heat source distribution inside a transformer. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous growth of industrial automation and power demand, as an indispensable device in the power system, the stability and efficiency of transformers have received extensive attention. During the operation of a transformer, its internal components will generate heat due to the passage of current. If the heat cannot be effectively controlled, it will have a serious impact on the performance and lifespan of the transformer. Therefore, maintaining an appropriate temperature inside the transformer is the key to ensuring the reliable operation of the power system.

[0003] Currently, the cooling technology of transformers mainly relies on traditional air cooling or oil-immersed cooling systems, which often adopt a unified cooling strategy to cool all heat sources to the same extent. However, this method cannot effectively distinguish and target-cool heat sources at different positions and with different intensities inside the transformer, resulting in a low cooling effect.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cooling method, device and electronic device based on the local heat source distribution inside a transformer. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present application provides a cooling method, device and electronic device based on the local heat source distribution inside a transformer, which improves the cooling effect.

[0006] In a first aspect of the present application, a cooling method based on the local heat source distribution inside a transformer is provided. The method includes: obtaining temperature data at multiple preset positions inside the transformer; based on the temperature data, establishing a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the heat source distribution characteristics inside the transformer, where the three-dimensional temperature field model includes the temperature distribution and heat conduction characteristic parameters inside the transformer; using the three-dimensional temperature field model to calculate the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters of the local heat sources inside the transformer; according to the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters, determining the target cooling area and the corresponding cooling intensity parameters of the transformer cooling system, where the cooling intensity parameters include the flow rate, flow velocity and temperature of the cooling medium; and controlling the working state of the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameters, so that the transformer cooling system cools the target cooling area.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, by obtaining the temperature data at multiple preset positions inside the transformer and establishing a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the distribution characteristics of heat sources inside the transformer, the temperature distribution and heat conduction characteristics inside the transformer can be accurately described. Using this model to calculate the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters of local heat sources inside the transformer can accurately locate and quantify the heat generation and accumulation areas inside the transformer. According to the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters of the local heat sources, the target cooling area and the corresponding cooling intensity parameters of the transformer cooling system can be determined, realizing targeted cooling of high-temperature areas. By controlling the working state of the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameters, precise cooling of the hot spot area inside the transformer can be achieved, improving the cooling efficiency and extending the service life of the transformer. This method fully considers the actual temperature distribution and heat distribution inside the transformer, and through mathematical modeling, calculation analysis, and precise control, realizes the intelligentization of transformer cooling, improves the cooling effect, and ensures the safe and stable operation of the transformer.

[0008] Optionally, the establishing a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the distribution characteristics of heat sources inside the transformer based on the temperature data specifically includes: dividing the inside of the transformer into multiple cube units; establishing a three-dimensional geometric model of the inside of the transformer based on the finite element analysis method, and setting nodes corresponding to each of the cube units in the three-dimensional geometric model; calculating the temperature values at each of the nodes based on the temperature data to obtain a three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix of the inside of the transformer; establishing a partial differential equation for the temperature field distribution inside the transformer based on the three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix; and solving the partial differential equation to obtain a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the distribution characteristics of heat sources inside the transformer.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, by dividing the inside of the transformer into multiple cube units and setting nodes corresponding to the cube units in the three-dimensional geometric model, the temperature distribution inside the transformer can be discretized, facilitating subsequent numerical calculation and analysis. Establishing a three-dimensional geometric model of the inside of the transformer based on the finite element analysis method can accurately describe the structural characteristics and boundary conditions of the transformer. By calculating the temperature values at each node to obtain a three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix of the inside of the transformer, the temperature distribution inside the transformer can be comprehensively reflected. Establishing a partial differential equation for the temperature field distribution inside the transformer based on the temperature distribution matrix and solving this equation can obtain a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the distribution characteristics of heat sources inside the transformer. This model comprehensively considers factors such as the geometric structure, material properties, and boundary conditions inside the transformer, and can accurately describe the heat conduction process and temperature distribution law inside the transformer.

[0010] Optionally, calculating the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters of the local heat source inside the transformer by using the three-dimensional temperature field model specifically includes: representing the three-dimensional temperature field model as a temperature function with respect to spatial coordinates; taking the gradient of the temperature function to obtain a temperature gradient function; based on Fourier's law of heat conduction, calculating the heat flux density vector at each node inside the transformer according to the temperature gradient function; performing a divergence calculation on the heat flux density vector to obtain the heat source power density function at each node inside the transformer; according to the heat source power density function, determining target nodes greater than or equal to a preset power density threshold, determining the spatial coordinates corresponding to the target nodes as the spatial coordinates of the local heat source, and determining the thermal power parameters corresponding to the target nodes as the thermal power parameters of the local heat source.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, representing the three-dimensional temperature field model as a temperature function with respect to spatial coordinates and taking the gradient of the temperature function can obtain a temperature gradient function reflecting the temperature change rate. Based on Fourier's law of heat conduction, using the temperature gradient function to calculate the heat flux density vector at each node inside the transformer can reveal the direction and intensity of heat transfer inside the transformer. Performing a divergence calculation on the heat flux density vector can obtain the heat source power density function at each node inside the transformer, reflecting the generation and consumption of heat inside the transformer. By determining target nodes greater than or equal to a preset power density threshold and taking the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters corresponding to the target nodes as the attributes of the local heat source, the high-temperature areas and heat accumulation areas inside the transformer can be accurately located and quantified. This method makes full use of the temperature distribution information provided by the three-dimensional temperature field model and realizes the accurate positioning and quantitative description of the heat source inside the transformer through operations such as mathematical derivation, heat flow calculation, and threshold judgment, providing an important basis for subsequent cooling control.

[0012] Optionally, determining the target cooling area and the corresponding cooling intensity parameter of the transformer cooling system according to the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters specifically includes: based on the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters, performing a clustering analysis on the local heat source to obtain multiple heat source clustering centers and the heat load corresponding to each heat source clustering center; according to the spatial coordinates of each heat source clustering center, determining the cooling node closest to each heat source clustering center in the transformer cooling system and taking the cooling node as the cooling action point of the heat source clustering center; calculating the average heat load within a spherical area with each cooling action point as the center and a preset radius as the radius; determining the spherical area with the average heat load greater than the preset heat load threshold as the target cooling area of the transformer cooling system; for each target cooling area, calculating the cooling intensity parameter corresponding to the target cooling area according to the corresponding average heat load.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, clustering analysis is carried out based on the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters of the local heat sources, so that the heat source distribution inside the transformer can be divided into several typical high-temperature regions, and each region is represented by a heat source clustering center. By calculating the heat loads of each heat source clustering center, the heat dissipation requirements of each high-temperature region can be quantitatively evaluated. According to the spatial coordinates of the heat source clustering center, the cooling node with the shortest distance is determined as the cooling action point in the transformer cooling system, and the spatial mapping relationship between the high-temperature region and the cooling system can be established. By calculating the average heat load within the spherical region centered on the cooling action point, the overall heat dissipation requirements of this region can be evaluated. The spherical region with an average heat load greater than the preset threshold is determined as the target cooling region of the transformer cooling system, and the regions that need to be cooled with emphasis inside the transformer can be identified. For each target cooling region, the corresponding cooling intensity parameter is calculated according to its average heat load, and the precise regulation of the cooling system for the high-temperature region can be realized. Through a series of operations such as clustering analysis, spatial mapping, and heat load calculation, this method transforms the complex heat source distribution into several typical high-temperature regions, determines the cooling requirements and cooling strategies for each region, and realizes the regional and refined control of transformer cooling.

[0014] Optionally, the clustering analysis of the local heat sources based on the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters to obtain a plurality of heat source clustering centers and the heat loads corresponding to each of the heat source clustering centers specifically includes: using the spatial coordinates of the local heat sources as the clustering feature vectors and the thermal power parameters as the clustering weights to construct a clustering sample set; clustering the clustering sample set to obtain a preset number of target clustering clusters; for each of the target clustering clusters, calculating the weighted average of the thermal power parameters of each sample point, and using the weighted average as the heat source clustering center of the target clustering cluster; for each of the target clustering clusters, calculating the sum of the thermal power parameters corresponding to each sample point to obtain the heat load.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, taking the spatial coordinates of the local heat source as the clustering feature vector and the thermal power parameter as the clustering weight to construct a clustering sample set, the position information and thermal power information of the heat source can be comprehensively considered, providing a complete data basis for clustering analysis. Clustering the clustering sample set to obtain a preset number of target clustering clusters can divide the heat source distribution inside the transformer into several representative high-temperature regions. For each target clustering cluster, calculating the weighted average of the thermal power parameters of the sample points as the heat source clustering center of the clustering cluster can obtain a central point that comprehensively reflects the heat source distribution characteristics of this region. By calculating the sum of the thermal power parameters of the sample points within each target clustering cluster, the total heat load of the clustering cluster can be obtained, quantitatively evaluating the heat dissipation requirement of this region. By constructing a clustering sample set, using a clustering algorithm to group the heat sources, and calculating the central points and total heat loads of each clustering cluster, the method realizes the extraction of regional characteristics and quantitative description of the heat source distribution inside the transformer, providing an important reference for the subsequent formulation of cooling strategies.

[0016] Optionally, the step of clustering the clustering sample set to obtain a preset number of target clustering clusters specifically includes: randomly extracting a preset number of sample points from the clustering sample set as the initial clustering centers; calculating the Euclidean distance between each sample point and each of the initial clustering centers, and dividing each of the sample points into the clustering cluster corresponding to the nearest initial clustering center; for each of the clustering clusters, calculating the weighted average of the thermal power of the sample points in the clustering cluster, and updating the weighted average of the thermal power as the new clustering center of the corresponding clustering cluster; performing iterative calculation on the new clustering centers to obtain a preset number of clustering clusters.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, by randomly extracting a preset number of sample points from the clustering sample set as the initial clustering centers, the clustering starting points can be evenly selected in the sample space, providing a reasonable initial value for the subsequent iterative optimization. Calculating the Euclidean distance between each sample point and the initial clustering center and dividing the sample points into the clustering cluster where the nearest clustering center is located can realize the preliminary grouping of the sample points. For each clustering cluster, calculating the weighted average of the thermal power of the sample points as the new clustering center can more accurately reflect the overall characteristics of the clustering cluster. By iteratively calculating the new clustering centers and continuously updating the belonging relationship of the sample points until a preset number of stable clustering clusters are obtained, the optimization and convergence of the clustering results can be realized. This method uses a clustering algorithm method to perform clustering analysis on the heat source sample set through iterative optimization, can effectively process large-scale and high-dimensional temperature data, obtain the typical regional division of the heat source distribution inside the transformer, and provide a regional decision-making basis for the subsequent cooling control.

[0018] Optionally, controlling the operating state of the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameter so that the transformer cooling system cools the target cooling area specifically includes: generating a control strategy for the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameters corresponding to each target cooling area, where the control strategy includes the start-stop states of each cooling unit, and control instructions for the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium; sending the control strategy to the transformer cooling system so that the transformer cooling system controls the start-stop states of each cooling unit according to the control strategy, and adjusts the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, generating a control strategy for the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameters corresponding to each target cooling area can formulate a control plan for the cooling requirements of different areas. The control strategy includes key control instructions such as the start-stop states of each cooling unit, the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium, and can comprehensively guide the operation of the transformer cooling system. Sending the control strategy to the transformer cooling system can realize the remote transmission and execution of control instructions. The transformer cooling system controls the start-stop states of each cooling unit according to the received control strategy, and adjusts the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium, and can achieve precise control of the target cooling area. By dynamically adjusting the operating parameters of the cooling system, it can adapt to the change of the internal heat source distribution of the transformer and realize the optimization of the cooling effect. This method realizes the intelligent control of the transformer cooling system by generating and sending the control strategy, can flexibly adjust the cooling strategy according to the actual heat source distribution of the transformer, improves the cooling efficiency and energy utilization rate, and ensures the safe and stable operation of the transformer.

[0029] This application provides a cooling method based on the local heat source distribution inside a transformer. Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a schematic flow chart of the cooling method based on the local heat source distribution inside a transformer provided by an embodiment of this application. This method is applied to a controller, and the controller is a controller that executes a cooling program based on the local heat source distribution inside a transformer. This method includes steps S101 to S105, and the above steps are as follows: Step S101: Obtain temperature data at multiple preset positions inside the transformer.

[0030] In step S101, the controller obtains the temperature data at multiple preset positions inside the transformer by communicating with the temperature sensors inside the transformer. Specifically, the controller first determines the preset positions inside the transformer, which are preset according to the structural characteristics and heat distribution characteristics of the transformer and cover key parts inside the transformer, such as the iron core, winding, oil tank, etc.

[0031] After determining the preset positions, the controller establishes a communication connection with the temperature sensors installed at these preset positions. The temperature sensors can be thermocouples, thermal resistors or other types of temperature measurement devices, capable of measuring the temperature values at their respective positions in real time. The controller collects temperature data from each temperature sensor at regular intervals according to a preset collection frequency through wired or wireless communication means. The preset collection frequency can be set according to actual needs. For example, it can be collected once every 1 minute, and this application does not limit this. After receiving the temperature data sent by the temperature sensors, the controller analyzes and stores the temperature data to obtain the temperature values at multiple preset positions inside the transformer at different times.

[0032] Step S102: Based on the temperature data, establish a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the heat source distribution characteristics inside the transformer. The three-dimensional temperature field model includes the temperature distribution and heat conduction characteristic parameters inside the transformer.

[0033] In step S102, based on the temperature data, establishing a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the heat source distribution characteristics inside the transformer specifically includes: dividing the inside of the transformer into multiple cubic units; based on the finite element analysis method, establishing a three-dimensional geometric model of the inside of the transformer and setting nodes corresponding to each cubic unit in the three-dimensional geometric model; based on the temperature data, calculating the temperature values at each node to obtain a three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix inside the transformer; based on the three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix, establishing a partial differential equation for the temperature field distribution inside the transformer; and solving the partial differential equation to obtain a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the heat source distribution characteristics inside the transformer.

[0034] Specifically, the controller divides the space inside the transformer and discretizes it into multiple cubic units. The sizes of these cubic units can be determined according to the size of the transformer and the required modeling accuracy. For example, the inside of the transformer can be divided into 10*10*10 cubic units, and the side length of each unit is 10 cm.

[0035] Then, the controller establishes a three-dimensional geometric model of the inside of the transformer based on the finite element analysis method. In the embodiments of this application, the finite element analysis can be understood as a numerical calculation method that transforms a complex continuous problem into a simple discrete problem for solution. The controller constructs a three-dimensional geometric model of the transformer according to the structural parameters of the transformer, such as the sizes and positions of the iron core, winding, oil tank, etc. In the three-dimensional geometric model, each cubic unit corresponds to a node, and the position coordinates of the node are the center coordinates of the cubic unit.

[0036] Next, the controller maps the collected temperature data to the nodes in the three-dimensional geometric model. Specifically, based on the position information of the temperature sensors, the controller assigns the measured temperature values to the corresponding nodes. For the nodes without temperature sensors, the controller estimates their temperature values using interpolation algorithms (such as linear interpolation, spline interpolation, etc.). Through this step, the controller obtains a three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix inside the transformer, and each element of the three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix corresponds to the temperature value of a node.

[0037] After obtaining the three-dimensional temperature distribution matrix, the controller establishes a partial differential equation for the temperature field distribution inside the transformer based on the heat conduction equation. The heat conduction equation describes the heat transfer process inside an object and takes into account thermal physical parameters such as the thermal conductivity, density, and specific heat capacity of the material. The controller substitutes these parameters into the heat conduction equation to obtain a partial differential equation for temperature, where the independent variable is the spatial coordinates of the nodes and the dependent variable is the temperature value of the nodes. The partial differential equation is: ; where T represents temperature, t represents time, (x, y, z) are the spatial coordinates of each node, α represents the thermal diffusivity of the material (thermal conductivity divided by density and specific heat capacity), Q represents the power density of the internal heat source, ρ represents the density of the material, and c represents the specific heat capacity of the material.

[0038] This equation indicates that the rate of temperature change inside the transformer is related to the temperature gradient at that point and the internal heat source (Q). Among them, the temperature gradient describes the rate of temperature change in space and reflects the direction and intensity of heat transfer inside the object.

[0039] Finally, the controller solves the above partial differential equation to obtain a three-dimensional temperature field model reflecting the distribution characteristics of the internal heat source of the transformer. Numerical methods such as the finite difference method and the finite element method can be used to solve the partial differential equation.

[0040] For example, assume that the thermal conductivity of the insulating oil inside the transformer is 0.15 W / (m·K), the density is 900 kg / m³, and the specific heat capacity is 2000 J / (kg·K). At a certain moment, the temperature distribution matrix inside the transformer is: T(x, y, z) = 80 + 0.01·x + 0.02·y + 0.03·z; where the units of x, y, and z are cm and the unit of T is °C.

[0041] Substituting these data into the heat conduction equation, we can get: =(0.15 / 900 / 2000)·(0.01² + 0.02² + 0.03²)+Q / 900 / 2000; After simplification: =1.17×10 -9+Q / 1800000 This partial differential equation describes the temperature change of the insulating oil inside the transformer. Among them, the temperature change rate is affected by the temperature gradient (1 + 4 + 9) and the internal heat source (Q). If the power density distribution of the internal heat source is known, this equation can be solved to obtain the law of temperature change over time.

[0042] Step S103: Use the three-dimensional temperature field model to calculate the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters of the local heat source inside the transformer.

[0043] In step S103, using the three-dimensional temperature field model to calculate the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters of the local heat source inside the transformer specifically includes: representing the three-dimensional temperature field model as a temperature function with respect to spatial coordinates; taking the gradient of the temperature function to obtain the temperature gradient function; based on Fourier's law of heat conduction, calculating the heat flux density vector at each node inside the transformer according to the temperature gradient function; performing divergence calculation on the heat flux density vector to obtain the heat source power density function at each node inside the transformer; according to the heat source power density function, determining the target nodes greater than or equal to the preset power density threshold, determining the spatial coordinates corresponding to the target nodes as the spatial coordinates of the local heat source, and determining the thermal power parameters corresponding to the target nodes as the thermal power parameters of the local heat source.

[0044] Specifically, the controller represents the three-dimensional temperature field model as a temperature function T(x, y, z) with respect to spatial coordinates (x, y, z), where x, y, and z are the three-dimensional spatial coordinates of each node inside the transformer; taking the gradient of the temperature function T(x, y, z) to obtain the temperature gradient function , expressed as: ; where , , are the partial derivatives of the temperature function T(x, y, z) in the x, y, and z directions respectively; then the controller calculates the heat flux density vector q(x, y, z) at each node inside the transformer according to Fourier's law of heat conduction, and the calculation formula is: ; where k is the thermal conductivity of the transformer insulation material; then the controller performs divergence calculation on the heat flux density vector q(x, y, z) to obtain the heat source power density function Q(x, y, z) at each node inside the transformer, and the calculation formula is: ; where is the Laplacian operator of the temperature function T(x, y, z); then, based on the heat source power density function Q(x, y, z), the controller locates the nodes where Q(x, y, z) is greater than the preset power density threshold Q 0 , determines the spatial coordinates (x, y, z) of these nodes as the spatial coordinates of the local heat source, and determines the corresponding Q(x, y, z) value as the thermal power parameter of the local heat source.

[0045] Specifically, the controller represents the three-dimensional temperature field model as a temperature function T(x, y, z) with respect to the spatial coordinates (x, y, z). This function describes the relationship between the temperature values of each node inside the transformer and their spatial positions. Then, the controller calculates the gradient of the temperature function T(x, y, z) to obtain the temperature gradient function . The temperature gradient represents the rate of change of temperature in space and reflects the direction and intensity of heat transfer. The gradient calculation can be achieved through the definition of partial derivatives, that is, by calculating the partial derivatives of the temperature function in the x, y, and z directions respectively , , .

[0046] Next, based on Fourier's law of heat conduction, the controller calculates the heat flux density vector q(x, y, z) at each node inside the transformer. Fourier's law of heat conduction describes the relationship between the heat flux density and the temperature gradient, that is, the direction of the heat flux density is opposite to the temperature gradient, and its magnitude is proportional to the product of the temperature gradient and the material's thermal conductivity. By substituting the temperature gradient function into Fourier's law of heat conduction, the controller obtains the spatial distribution of the heat flux density vector. After obtaining the heat flux density vector, the controller calculates its divergence to obtain the heat source power density function Q(x, y, z) at each node inside the transformer. Divergence calculation is used to measure the degree of convergence or divergence of a vector field in space and reflects the generation or consumption of heat in space. By taking the divergence of the heat flux density vector, the controller obtains the heat source power density function, which represents the rate of heat generation per unit volume.

[0047] Finally, based on the heat source power density function Q(x, y, z), the controller locates the nodes whose values are greater than the preset power density threshold Q 0 , determines the spatial coordinates of these nodes as the spatial coordinates of the local heat source, and determines the corresponding Q value as the thermal power parameter of the local heat source. The preset power density threshold Q 0 is set according to the design and operation requirements of the transformer and represents the abnormal level of the heat source power density. Through this step, the controller determines the local areas inside the transformer where significant heat is generated, that is, the location and intensity information of the local heat source.

[0048] For example, assume that the temperature function inside the transformer is T(x, y, z) = 50 + 0.01x² + 0.02y² + 0.03z², where the units of x, y, and z are cm and the unit of T is °C. The controller calculates the gradient of this function to obtain the temperature gradient function , and then according to Fourier's law of heat conduction, calculates the heat flux density vector q(x, y, z) = (-0.003x, -0.006y, -0.009z), where the thermal conductivity of the insulating material is 0.15 W / (m·K). Next, the controller calculates the divergence of the heat flux density vector to obtain the heat source power density function Q(x, y, z) = -0.00018, with the unit of W / cm³. Assume that the preset power density threshold is 0.0001 W / cm³. The controller finds the nodes where the Q value is greater than this threshold and discovers that the Q value at the node (10, 20, 30) is 0.00036 W / cm³, exceeding the threshold. Therefore, the controller determines the coordinates of this node as the spatial coordinates of the local heat source and determines its Q value as the thermal power parameter, obtaining a local heat source located at (10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm) with a thermal power of 0.00036 W.

[0049] Step S104: Determine the target cooling area and the corresponding cooling intensity parameters of the transformer cooling system according to the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters. The cooling intensity parameters include the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium.

[0050] In step S104, according to the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters, determining the target cooling area and the corresponding cooling intensity parameters of the transformer cooling system specifically includes: performing clustering analysis on the local heat sources based on the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters to obtain multiple heat source clustering centers and the heat loads corresponding to each heat source clustering center; determining the cooling nodes in the transformer cooling system that are closest to each heat source clustering center according to the spatial coordinates of each heat source clustering center, and using the cooling nodes as the cooling action points of the heat source clustering center; calculating the average heat load within the spherical region with each cooling action point as the center and a preset radius; determining the spherical regions with an average heat load greater than the preset heat load threshold as the target cooling areas of the transformer cooling system; and calculating the cooling intensity parameters corresponding to the target cooling areas according to the corresponding average heat loads.

[0051] Specifically, the controller performs clustering analysis on the local heat sources using a clustering algorithm based on the spatial coordinates and the thermal power parameters of the local heat sources. The purpose of the clustering analysis is to group the local heat sources with similar spatial positions and similar thermal powers into one category to form heat source clustering centers. Through the clustering analysis, the controller can obtain multiple heat source clustering centers, and each heat source clustering center represents a high-temperature region. At the same time, the controller also calculates the total thermal power of the local heat sources included in each clustering center as the heat load of this clustering center.

[0052] Then, based on the spatial coordinates of each heat source clustering center, the controller locates the cooling node in the transformer cooling system that is closest to it. A cooling node refers to a key component in the cooling system responsible for heat transfer and exchange, such as coolers, fans, etc. By calculating the Euclidean distance between the heat source clustering center and the cooling node, the controller finds the cooling node closest to each clustering center and uses it as the cooling action point for that heat source clustering center. This step establishes the spatial mapping relationship between the high-temperature area and the cooling system.

[0053] Next, with each cooling action point as the center and a preset radius, the controller demarcates multiple spherical regions. These spherical regions represent the influence range of the cooling action points. The controller calculates the average heat load within each spherical region, that is, by summing the thermal powers of all local heat sources within the region and then dividing by the volume of the region. The average heat load reflects the heat density level within the region.

[0054] The controller determines the spherical regions with an average heat load greater than the preset heat load threshold as the target cooling regions of the transformer cooling system. The preset heat load threshold is set according to the design and operation requirements of the transformer, representing the demarcation standard for the high-temperature regions that need to be cooled intensively. Through this step, the controller identifies the regions inside the transformer that need to be cooled intensively, that is, the regions with a relatively high heat load level.

[0055] Finally, for each target cooling region, the controller calculates the required cooling intensity parameters according to its corresponding average heat load. The cooling intensity parameters include the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium. The controller establishes a quantitative relationship between the average heat load and the cooling intensity parameters through thermal engineering calculation formulas, such as Newton's law of cooling, Fourier's law of heat conduction, etc. By solving these formulas, the controller obtains the specific values of the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium required for each target cooling region. For each of the said target cooling regions, according to the corresponding average heat load Q 1 , calculate the cooling intensity parameters of this target cooling region, including the flow rate f of the cooling medium, the flow velocity v, and the temperature t. The calculation formulas are: f = α × Q 1 × V / c; v = β × Q 1 / (c × ρ); t = T - Q 1 / (h × A); where α and β are preset proportionality coefficients, c is the specific heat capacity of the cooling medium, V is the volume of the target cooling region, ρ is the density of the cooling medium, T is the initial oil temperature of the transformer tank, h is the heat transfer coefficient between the cooling medium and the tank, and A is the contact area between the target cooling region and the tank.

[0056] For example, assume that through cluster analysis, the controller obtains 3 heat source cluster centers inside the transformer, and their spatial coordinates are (10, 20, 30), (40, 50, 60), (70, 80, 90) respectively, with the unit being cm; the corresponding heat loads are 50W, 80W, and 120W respectively. The controller finds the cooling nodes closest to these cluster centers in the cooling system, which are located at (15, 25, 35), (45, 55, 65), (75, 85, 95) respectively, and uses them as the cooling action points. Then, the controller takes these cooling action points as the centers and a radius of 20 cm to delimit 3 spherical regions. After calculation, the average heat loads of these 3 spherical regions are 0.002 W / cm³, 0.003 W / cm³, and 0.005 W / cm³ respectively. Assume that the preset heat load threshold is 0.0025 W / cm³, then the controller determines the latter two spherical regions as the target cooling regions. For these two target cooling regions, the controller obtains the required cooling intensity parameters according to the thermal calculation formula: the first region requires a cooling medium flow rate of 2 m³ / h, a flow velocity of 1 m / s, and a temperature of 20 °C; the second region requires a cooling medium flow rate of 3 m³ / h, a flow velocity of 1.5 m / s, and a temperature of 15 °C.

[0057] In a possible implementation manner, based on the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters, cluster analysis is performed on local heat sources to obtain multiple heat source cluster centers and the heat loads corresponding to each heat source cluster center, specifically including: using the spatial coordinates of the local heat sources as the cluster feature vectors and the thermal power parameters as the cluster weights to construct a cluster sample set; performing clustering on the cluster sample set to obtain a preset number of target clusters; for each target cluster, calculating the weighted average of the thermal power parameters of each sample point, and using the weighted average as the heat source cluster center of the target cluster; for each target cluster, calculating the sum of the thermal power parameters corresponding to each sample point to obtain the heat load.

[0058] Specifically, the controller uses the spatial coordinates of the local heat sources as the cluster feature vectors and the thermal power parameters as the cluster weights to construct a cluster sample set. The cluster feature vectors represent the positions of each local heat source in three-dimensional space and are the basic basis for performing cluster analysis. The cluster weights represent the magnitudes of the thermal powers of each local heat source and reflect their importance in the clustering process. By combining the spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters, the controller constructs a complete cluster sample set, providing a data basis for subsequent cluster analysis.

[0059] Then, the controller clusters the clustered sample set to obtain a preset number of target clustering clusters. The purpose of clustering is to group similar data points in the sample set into one category to form several clustering clusters. The controller can select an appropriate clustering algorithm according to actual needs and set the number of target clustering clusters. Through clustering analysis, the controller divides the local heat sources into several regions, and the heat sources within each region are relatively close in spatial position and thermal power.

[0060] Next, for each target clustering cluster, the controller calculates the weighted average of the thermal power parameters of each sample point and uses the weighted average as the heat source clustering center of the clustering cluster. The heat source clustering center represents the central position and average thermal intensity of the heat source distribution within each clustering cluster. By calculating the weighted average of the thermal power parameters of all sample points within the clustering cluster, the controller obtains a clustering center that comprehensively considers the spatial position and thermal power magnitude. This clustering center can represent the overall characteristics of the clustering cluster and is an important reference for subsequent analysis and decision-making.

[0061] Finally, for each target clustering cluster, the controller sums up the thermal power parameters corresponding to each sample point to obtain the heat load of the clustering cluster. The heat load represents the total heat generation level within each clustering cluster and reflects the overall heat dissipation demand of the region. By adding up the thermal powers of all local heat sources within the clustering cluster, the controller obtains the total heat load of the clustering cluster, providing a quantitative index for the subsequent design and optimization of the cooling system.

[0062] For example, assume that through heat source localization, the controller obtains 10 local heat sources inside the transformer, and their spatial coordinates and thermal power parameters are as follows: (10, 20, 30), 50W; (15, 25, 35), 60W; (20, 30, 40), 55W; (40, 50, 60), 80W; (45, 55, 65), 85W; (50, 60, 70), 90W; (70, 80, 90), 120W; (75, 85, 95), 110W; (80, 90, 100), 130W; (85, 95, 105), 125W.

[0063] The controller constructed a clustering sample set using the spatial coordinates of these 10 local heat sources as the clustering feature vectors and the thermal power parameters as the clustering weights. Then, the controller used the k-means algorithm to cluster the sample set into 3 target clustering clusters. After calculation, the controller obtained 3 heat source clustering centers, which were (17, 27, 37), (47, 57, 67), and (80, 90, 100) respectively, and their weighted average thermal powers were 58W, 88W, and 124W respectively. For each clustering cluster, the controller summed up the thermal power parameters of the internal sample points to obtain the heat loads of the 3 clustering clusters, which were 165W, 255W, and 385W respectively.

[0064] In a possible implementation manner, clustering the clustering sample set to obtain a preset number of target clustering clusters specifically includes: randomly extracting a preset number of sample points from the clustering sample set as the initial clustering centers; calculating the Euclidean distance between each sample point and each initial clustering center, and dividing each sample point into the clustering cluster corresponding to the nearest initial clustering center; for each clustering cluster, calculating the weighted average thermal power of the sample points in the clustering cluster, and updating the weighted average thermal power as the new clustering center of the corresponding clustering cluster; performing iterative calculation on the new clustering centers to obtain a preset number of clustering clusters.

[0065] Specifically, the controller randomly extracts a preset number of sample points from the clustering sample set as the initial clustering centers. The number of initial clustering centers is the number of target clustering clusters, which needs to be set according to the complexity of the internal heat source distribution of the transformer and the design requirements of the cooling system. Through the random extraction method, the controller evenly selects the initial clustering centers in the sample space, providing a starting point for subsequent clustering iteration.

[0066] Then, the controller calculates the Euclidean distance between each sample point and each initial clustering center. The Euclidean distance is a commonly used distance metric, which represents the straight-line distance between two points in a multi-dimensional space. By calculating the Euclidean distance between the sample point and the clustering center, the controller can measure the similarity between each sample point and each clustering cluster. The smaller the distance, the closer the sample point is to the clustering center, and the more likely it belongs to the same clustering cluster.

[0067] Next, the controller divides each sample point into the clustering cluster corresponding to the nearest initial clustering center. This step assigns the sample points to the most similar clustering cluster according to the calculation result of the Euclidean distance. In this way, the controller completes the preliminary division of the sample set and obtains several clustering clusters with the initial clustering centers as the core.

[0068] After obtaining the preliminarily divided clustering clusters, the controller calculates the weighted average of the thermal powers of all sample points in each clustering cluster. The weighted average of the thermal powers takes into account the thermal power differences of the sample points within the clustering cluster, and a comprehensive thermal power value of the clustering center is obtained through weighted calculation. Then, the controller updates this weighted average of the thermal powers as the new clustering center of the corresponding clustering cluster. Compared with the initial clustering center, the new clustering center can more accurately reflect the overall characteristics of the clustering cluster.

[0069] Finally, the controller performs iterative calculations on the new clustering centers, continuously repeating the above steps until a preset number of stable clustering clusters are obtained. In each iteration, the controller recalculates the Euclidean distance between the sample points and the new clustering centers, and re-divides the clustering clusters according to the distance. Then, the controller calculates the weighted average of the thermal powers of each clustering cluster again and updates it as the new clustering center. As the number of iterations increases, the clustering centers are continuously optimized, and the sample points within the clustering clusters become more and more compact, and finally converge to the target clustering clusters of the preset number.

[0070] For example, assume that the controller randomly selects 3 sample points as the initial clustering centers from a clustering sample set containing 100 local heat sources, which are (10, 20, 30), (40, 50, 60), and (70, 80, 90) respectively. Then, the controller calculates the Euclidean distance between each sample point and these 3 initial clustering centers, and divides the sample points into the clustering clusters where the nearest clustering center is located.

[0071] In the first iteration, the controller calculates the weighted average of the thermal powers of the sample points for each clustering cluster, and obtains new clustering centers, such as (15, 25, 35), (45, 55, 65), and (75, 85, 95). Then, the controller recalculates the Euclidean distance between the sample points and the new clustering centers, and re-divides the clustering clusters according to the distance.

[0072] The controller continuously repeats this process. After multiple iterations, 3 stable target clustering clusters are finally obtained, and their clustering centers are (18, 27, 38), (47, 58, 69), and (79, 88, 98) respectively. The sample points within these 3 clustering clusters are highly similar in spatial position and thermal power, representing 3 typical high-temperature regions inside the transformer.

[0073] In this way, the controller uses the k-means clustering algorithm to divide the complex local heat source sample set into the target clustering clusters of the preset number through iterative optimization. The sample points within each clustering cluster have similar spatial position and thermal power characteristics, representing a high-temperature region inside the transformer.

[0074] Step S105: Control the operating state of the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameter, so that the transformer cooling system cools the target cooling area.

[0075] In step S105, controlling the operating state of the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameter so that the transformer cooling system cools the target cooling area specifically includes: generating a control strategy for the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameters corresponding to each target cooling area, where the control strategy includes start-stop states of each cooling unit, control instructions for the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium; sending the control strategy to the transformer cooling system so that the transformer cooling system controls the start-stop states of each cooling unit according to the control strategy and adjusts the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium.

[0076] Specifically, the controller generates a control strategy for the transformer cooling system according to the cooling intensity parameters corresponding to each target cooling area. The controller takes these parameters as inputs and generates a complete control strategy for the cooling system through preset control algorithms and logics. The control strategy contains specific control instructions for each cooling unit of the cooling system, such as the start-stop state of the cooling unit, the set values of the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium, etc. Each cooling unit may be an independent cooling loop, including components such as coolers, pumps, valves, and fans, and is responsible for cooling a specific area. The controller determines the corresponding cooling unit according to the positions and cooling requirements of each target area and generates targeted control instructions.

[0077] For example, for a target area with a high heat load, the controller may instruct the corresponding cooling unit to increase the flow rate and flow velocity of the cooling medium to enhance the cooling effect; for a target area with a low heat load, the controller may reduce the working intensity of the corresponding cooling unit to save energy. At the same time, the controller also adjusts the temperature of the cooling medium according to the type of the cooling medium and the heat exchange efficiency to optimize the cooling process.

[0078] After generating the control strategy, the controller sends it to the transformer cooling system. Through communication interfaces and protocols, the controller establishes a connection with the cooling system and transmits the control strategy to the execution unit of the cooling system. The execution unit may be an integrated control module or distributed control nodes and is responsible for parsing and executing each instruction in the control strategy.

[0079] After receiving the control strategy, the transformer cooling system controls the working states of each cooling unit according to the content of the strategy. For the cooling units that need to be started, the cooling system sends start commands and monitors their operating states; for the cooling units that need to be stopped, the cooling system sends stop commands and ensures their safe shutdown. At the same time, the cooling system also adjusts the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the cooling medium in each cooling unit according to the set values in the control strategy to meet the cooling requirements of different target areas.

[0080] For example, assume that the controller generates the following control strategy according to the cooling intensity parameters: Target area 1: Start cooling unit 1, set the cooling medium flow rate to 2 m³ / h, the flow velocity to 1 m / s, and the temperature to 20 °C. Target area 2: Start cooling unit 2, set the cooling medium flow rate to 3 m³ / h, the flow velocity to 1.5 m / s, and the temperature to 15 °C. Target area 3: Stop cooling unit 3. After the controller sends this control strategy to the transformer cooling system, the cooling system performs the following operations according to the content of the strategy: Start cooling unit 1 and adjust its cooling medium flow rate to 2 m³ / h, the flow velocity to 1 m / s, and the temperature to 20 °C. Start cooling unit 2 and adjust its cooling medium flow rate to 3 m³ / h, the flow velocity to 1.5 m / s, and the temperature to 15 °C. Stop the operation of cooling unit 3 and ensure its safe shutdown.
