[0002] Wind power cables undertake key power transmission and signal transmission tasks in wind power systems.

The staff can take corresponding maintenance measures for the positions of the wind power cables with weather resistance defects according to the warning messages of the weather resistance defects to ensure the normal and safe operation of the wind power system.

[0034] Based on the above usage scenarios, it can be understood that the execution subject of this application can be an intelligent terminal device, such as a desktop computer, a notebook computer, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, and an interactive multimedia, etc., and no excessive limitations are made here.

[0035] A preset acquisition module 110 is configured to acquire the preset position and the preset period for the weather resistance detection of the wind power cable.

[0036] A cable is a device for transmitting electricity or signals. A wind power cable is a special cable for transmitting electric energy in a wind power system. Among them, a wind power system can refer to a device system that can convert wind energy into electric energy, and generally consists of a wind turbine, a generator, a converter, a control system, a tower, and other auxiliary devices, etc.

[0037] Weather resistance can refer to the ability of a wind power cable to maintain its performance stability under the action of various climate factors in natural environmental conditions. Weather resistance detection is the detection of the weather resistance of a wind power cable.

[0038] The preset position may refer to the position of the wind power cable where weather resistance testing needs to be carried out. The method for determining the preset position of the wind power cable for weather resistance testing can be to obtain the stress data, annual average temperature amplitude data, and service life data of each position of the wind power cable, and determine the preset position of the wind power cable for weather resistance testing based on the stress data, annual average temperature amplitude data, and service life data.

[0039] The preset period may refer to the time interval at which the event of weather resistance testing occurs repeatedly. The preset period can be preset according to the weather resistance requirements of the wind power cable.

[0040] The image acquisition module 120 is used to acquire visible light images and infrared images at the preset position of the wind power cable according to the preset period.

[0041] A visible light image is an image formed by the reflection or transmission of light in the visible light band by an object. A high-definition camera is a camera device that can capture high-resolution images and videos and has excellent performance in terms of image clarity and detail restoration. A high-definition camera can be used to acquire visible light images at the preset position of the wind power cable.

[0042] An infrared image is an image that shows the temperature distribution and thermal characteristics of the surface of an object. An infrared camera is a device that uses infrared imaging technology to capture and record images.

It can be understood that the unmanned exploration device can carry a high-definition camera and an infrared camera, and the unmanned exploration device can achieve autonomous movement through a running track.

[0044] The defect identification module 130 is used to identify the weather resistance defects of the wind power cable based on the visible light image, and determine the location where the weather resistance defect is located as the area to be identified.

[0045] Weather resistance defects may refer to problems such as performance degradation or appearance damage of the wind power cable caused by various climate factors during long-term exposure to natural environmental conditions, such as cracks, bulges, and corrosion marks.

[0046] A method for identifying weathering defects of wind power cables based on visible light images can be to pre-train a weathering defect identification model using a large number of visible light images of wind power cables with weathering defects. By inputting the current visible light image into the weathering defect identification model, the weathering defect identification model outputs the location of the weathering defect in the visible light image, and determines the location of the weathering defect as the area to be identified. Among them, the area to be identified can refer to the location of the wind power cable that needs to be further determined whether it is a weathering defect.

[0047] The defect determination module 140 is used to extract the infrared image features of the area to be identified based on the infrared image, and identify whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image features and whether the abnormal features conform to the weathering defects. In the case of identification as conforming, it generates a warning message for the weathering defects.

[0048] The infrared image features of the area to be identified can refer to the temperature distribution features of the area to be identified. The method for extracting the infrared image features of the area to be identified based on the infrared image can be to determine the pixel area of the area to be identified in the infrared image, read the pixel values of each pixel in this pixel area, and determine the temperature data corresponding to each pixel value according to the pre-constructed correlation relationship between the pixel value and the temperature data, so as to obtain the infrared image features of the area to be identified.

[0049] The abnormal features can refer to the infrared image features representing weathering defects. The method for identifying whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image features and whether the abnormal features conform to the weathering defects can be to compare the infrared image features with the preset abnormal features to identify whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image features and whether the abnormal features conform to the weathering defects.

[0050] The warning message for the weathering defects can be information used to warn the staff that there are weathering defects in the wind power cable and maintenance is required. The specific content of the warning message for the weathering defects can include the location of the wind power cable with weathering defects. The method for generating the warning message for the weathering defects can be to pop up a warning window on the display device of the intelligent terminal device, and the specific content of the warning message for the weathering defects is displayed in the warning window.

In this technical solution, by acquiring the visible light image and the infrared image of the wind power generation cable, the weather resistance defects of the wind power generation cable can be dynamically and accurately detected, thereby providing a reliable guarantee for its long-term stable operation in a complex outdoor environment.

[0052] Embodiment 2

[0053] Figure 2 FIG. is a schematic structural diagram of an image exploration weather resistance detection device for a wind power generation cable provided in Embodiment 2 of this application. This solution makes a better improvement on the basis of the above embodiment. The specific improvement is as follows: the preset acquisition module includes: a data acquisition unit, which is used to acquire the stress data, annual average temperature variation data and service life data of each position of the wind power generation cable; a preset position determination unit, which is used to determine the preset position for the weather resistance detection of the wind power generation cable according to the stress data, the annual average temperature variation data and the service life data; a preset period acquisition unit, which is used to acquire the preset period for the weather resistance detection of the wind power generation cable.

[0054] As Figure 2 shown, the device includes:

[0055] A preset acquisition module 210, which is used to acquire the preset position and preset period for the weather resistance detection of a wind power generation cable;

[0056] An image acquisition module 220, which is used to acquire a visible light image and an infrared image at the preset position of the wind power generation cable according to the preset period; wherein, a high-definition camera and an infrared camera are arranged at the preset position, or a running track of an unmanned exploration device carrying the high-definition camera and the infrared camera is arranged at the preset position;

[0057] A defect recognition module 230, configured to recognize weathering defects of the wind power cable based on the visible light image, and determine the location where the weathering defect is located as the area to be identified; wherein, the weathering defect includes at least one of cracks, bulges, and corrosion marks;

[0058] A defect determination module 240, configured to extract infrared image features of the area to be identified based on the infrared image, and identify whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image features and whether the abnormal features conform to the weathering defects, and generate a warning message for the weathering defects when it is recognized as conforming.

[0059] Wherein, the preset acquisition module 210 includes:

[0060] A data acquisition unit 2101, configured to acquire stress data, annual average temperature variation data, and service life data of each position of the wind power cable;

[0061] A preset position determination unit 2102, configured to determine a preset position for weathering detection of the wind power cable according to the stress data, the annual average temperature variation data, and the service life data;

[0062] A preset period acquisition unit 2103, configured to acquire a preset period for weathering detection of the wind power cable.

[0063] The stress data may refer to the magnitude of the force borne by the inside and surface of the wind power cable; the annual average temperature variation data may refer to the average value of the temperature change range of the environment where the wind power cable is located within one year; the service life data may refer to the duration experienced by the wind power cable from the start of use to the current moment.

[0064] The stress data can be collected by a stress sensor; the annual average temperature variation data can be obtained by collecting temperature data through a temperature sensor and statistically calculating according to the temperature data; the service life data can be calculated by referring to the installation date of the wind power cable.

[0065] The method for determining the preset position for weathering detection of the wind power cable according to the stress data, the annual average temperature variation data, and the service life data can be to calculate the aging coefficient of the wind power cable according to the service life data, and determine the position of the wind power cable where its stress data exceeds the preset stress threshold, its annual average temperature variation data exceeds the preset temperature variation threshold, and its aging coefficient exceeds the preset aging threshold as the preset position. Wherein, the preset stress threshold can be 5 megapascals, the preset temperature variation threshold can be 30 degrees Celsius, and the preset aging threshold can be 0.8.

[0066] In this technical solution, optionally, the preset period acquisition unit is specifically configured to:

[0067] Obtain the wind speed data and temperature change speed data at each preset position, and determine a period adjustment coefficient according to the wind speed data and the temperature change speed data;

[0068] Obtain an initial preset period, and determine the preset period for performing weather resistance detection at each preset position according to the initial preset period and the period adjustment coefficient.

[0069] The wind speed data may refer to the magnitude of the air flow velocity per unit time, and the wind speed data can be collected by an anemometer. The temperature change speed data may refer to the rate at which the temperature data changes over time. The temperature change speed data can be obtained by collecting temperature data through a temperature sensor and then statistically analyzing the temperature data.

[0070] The period adjustment coefficient can be a numerical parameter used to adjust the period for performing weather resistance detection on the wind power cable. The method of determining the period adjustment coefficient according to the wind speed data and the temperature change speed data can be to calculate the ratio of the wind speed data to the reference wind speed as the first ratio, calculate the ratio of the temperature change speed data to the reference temperature change speed as the second ratio, and perform a weighted sum calculation on the first ratio and the second ratio according to a preset weight to obtain the period adjustment coefficient.

[0071] The initial preset period can refer to the reference value of the time interval at which the event of performing weather resistance detection repeats initially set. The method of determining the preset period for performing weather resistance detection at each preset position according to the initial preset period and the period adjustment coefficient can be to divide the initial preset period by the period adjustment coefficient to obtain the preset period.

[0072] The following is an example code for determining the preset period for performing weather resistance detection at each preset position according to the wind speed data and the temperature change speed data at each preset position:

[0073] # Define a function to obtain wind speed data. Here, it simply simulates collecting data from an anemometer

[0074] def get_wind_speed():

[0075] # In actual application, it should be replaced with the code for reading data from an anemometer

[0076] wind_speed = float(input("Please enter the current wind speed (m / s):"))

[0077] return wind_speed

[0078] # Define a function to obtain temperature change rate data. Here, it simply simulates collecting data from a temperature sensor and making statistics

[0079] def get_temperature_change_rate():

[0080] # In actual applications, it should be replaced with code to read data from a temperature sensor and make statistics

[0081] temperature_change_rate = float(input("Please enter the current temperature change rate (℃ / h):"))

[0082] return temperature_change_rate

[0083] # Define a function to calculate the cycle adjustment coefficient

[0084] def calculate_adjustment_coefficient(wind_speed, temperature_change_rate, base_wind_speed, base_temperature_change_rate, weight_wind, weight_temp):

[0085] # Calculate the first ratio

[0086] first_ratio = wind_speed / base_wind_speed

[0087] # Calculate the second ratio

[0088]

[0089] weight_wind, weight_temp)

[0090] # Determine the preset period

[0091] preset_period = determine_preset_period(initial_preset_period, adjustment_coefficient) print(f"The cycle adjustment coefficient is: {adjustment_coefficient}")

[0092] print(f"The preset period for weather resistance testing at each preset position is: {preset_period} hours")

[0093] The advantage of this solution is that by determining the preset cycle for weather resistance detection at each preset position based on the wind speed data and temperature change speed data at each preset position, the detection work can be more in line with the actual operation of the wind power cable, accurately match the potential risk levels of the wind power cable under different environmental conditions, and reasonably allocate detection resources.

[0094] The advantage of this solution is that by determining the preset positions for weather resistance detection of the wind power cable based on stress data, annual average temperature change amplitude data, and service life data, the weak parts of the wind power cable that are most vulnerable to environmental factors and its own aging can be accurately located, so as to concentrate detection resources and improve detection efficiency.

[0102] Among them, the defect determination module 340 includes:

[0103] An abnormal feature recognition unit 3401, configured to extract infrared image features of the area to be identified based on the infrared image, and match the infrared image features with preset abnormal features, so as to identify whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image features and whether the abnormal features conform to the weather resistance defects;

[0105] A warning generation unit 3403, configured to generate a warning message for the weather resistance defect according to the abnormal score.

[0106] The preset abnormal features can be the infrared image features presented by the pre-constructed weather resistance defects. The method of matching the infrared image features with the preset abnormal features to identify whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image features and whether the abnormal features conform to the weather resistance defects can be to train a convolutional neural network model in advance using a large number of infrared image samples of weather resistance defects with annotations, so that the convolutional neural network model automatically learns the difference patterns between normal infrared image features and abnormal infrared image features, input the current infrared image into the trained convolutional neural network model, and the convolutional neural network model makes a judgment according to the learned feature patterns, and outputs whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image and the matching degree and category of the abnormal features with the weather resistance defects.

[0107] The abnormal score of the weather resistance defect can be a numerical index used to quantify the severity of the weather resistance defect. The method of determining the abnormal score of the weather resistance defect according to the visible light image and the infrared image can be to determine the defect density data of the weather resistance defect according to the visible light image, determine the maximum temperature difference data of the weather resistance defect according to the infrared image, and determine the abnormal score of the weather resistance defect according to the defect density data and the maximum temperature difference data.

[0112] The defect density data may refer to the pixel proportion of weathering defects per unit area in the visible light image. The method for determining the defect density data of weathering defects based on the visible light image may be to count the number of pixels occupied by the area to be identified and the total number of pixels in the visible light image, and divide the number of pixels by the total number of pixels in the visible light image to obtain the defect density data of weathering defects.

[0113] The maximum temperature difference data may refer to the difference between the maximum temperature value and the minimum temperature value in the temperature distribution at the location of the weathering defect. The method for determining the maximum temperature difference data of weathering defects based on the infrared image may be to read the pixel values of each pixel of the weathering defect in the infrared image, and determine the temperature data corresponding to each pixel value according to the pre-established correlation between pixel values and temperature data, count the maximum and minimum values of the temperature data, and subtract the minimum value from the maximum value to obtain the maximum temperature difference data of the weathering defect.

[0114] The method for determining the anomaly score of weathering defects based on the defect density data and the maximum temperature difference data may be to perform normalization processing on the defect density data and the maximum temperature difference data, and perform weighted summation calculation on the normalized defect density data and maximum temperature difference data according to the preset weight coefficients to obtain the anomaly score of the weathering defect.

[0115] The following is an example code for determining the anomaly score of weathering defects based on visible light images and infrared images:

[0116]

[0117]

[0118]

[0119]

[0120] In this technical solution, optionally, the score determination unit is further configured to:

[0121] Obtain the temperature change rate data, humidity data, and salt fog concentration data at the preset position where the weathering defect is located;

[0122] Determine the environmental severity index according to the temperature change rate data, the humidity data, and the salt fog concentration data;

[0123] Obtain the historical maintenance record score of the preset position where the weather resistance defect is located;

[0124] Determine the abnormal score of the weather resistance defect according to the defect density data, the maximum temperature difference data, the environmental severity index, and the historical maintenance record score.

[0125] The humidity data can reflect the water vapor content in the air, and the humidity data can be collected by a humidity sensor. The salt fog concentration data can refer to the content of salt fog particles in the air, and the salt fog concentration data can be collected by a smoke concentration sensor.

[0126] The environmental severity index can be a quantitative index that comprehensively measures the degree of influence of the environment on the weather resistance of wind power cables. The method of determining the environmental severity index according to the temperature change rate data, the humidity data, and the salt fog concentration data can adopt the combination of the analytic hierarchy process and the grey relational analysis method.

[0127] The historical maintenance record score can be a value obtained after quantitatively evaluating the preset position where the weather resistance defect of the wind power cable is located in the past maintenance work. The historical maintenance record score can comprehensively consider various key information in the historical maintenance process, and is used to reflect the quality, effect of the past maintenance work, and the overall maintenance status of the wind power cable. The historical maintenance record score can be obtained by evaluating the historical maintenance record of the wind power cable.

[0128] The method of determining the abnormal score of the weather resistance defect according to the defect density data, the maximum temperature difference data, the environmental severity index, and the historical maintenance record score can adopt normalizing the defect density data, the maximum temperature difference data, the environmental severity index, and the historical maintenance record score, and performing weighted summation calculation on the normalized defect density data, the maximum temperature difference data, the environmental severity index, and the historical maintenance record score according to the preset weight coefficient to obtain the abnormal score of the weather resistance defect.

[0129] The advantage of this solution is that by introducing the environmental severity index and the historical maintenance record score on the basis of the defect density data of the visible light image and the maximum temperature difference data of the infrared image, multi-dimensional information can be integrated to more comprehensively and accurately evaluate the weather resistance defects of wind power cables.

[0130] The advantage of this solution is that by determining the abnormal score of the weather resistance defect according to the defect density data of the visible light image and the maximum temperature difference data of the infrared image, quantitative evaluation of the weather resistance defect can be realized, and the complex cable surface defect condition and internal thermal anomaly situation can be converted into intuitive numerical values, which is convenient for quickly judging the severity of the weather resistance defect.

[0131] The method for generating a warning message for weather resistance defects can pop up a warning window on the display device of the intelligent terminal device, and the location and abnormal score of the weather resistance defects are displayed in the warning window.

[0132] The advantage of this solution is that by comparing the infrared image features and the preset abnormal features to identify whether there are abnormal features in the infrared image features and whether the abnormal features conform to the weather resistance defects, the potential problems of the wind power cable can be accurately located, and the efficient screening of the weather resistance defects can be realized.

[0133] In this technical solution, optionally, the defect determination module further includes:

[0134] A preset period adjustment unit for adjusting the preset period according to the abnormal score.

[0135] The method for adjusting the preset period according to the abnormal score can be to divide the abnormal score by the preset abnormal score benchmark to obtain a period adjustment coefficient, and divide the current preset period by the period adjustment coefficient to obtain the adjusted preset period.

[0136] The advantage of this solution is that by adjusting the preset period according to the abnormal score, the detection work can be made more scientific and flexible, the detection resources can be reasonably allocated, and the operation and maintenance efficiency can be improved.
