Description of the Drawings

[0044] Figure 1 It is a schematic flow chart of a gas dynamic simulation analysis method based on thermodynamic coupling proposed by the present invention;

[0045] Figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of a gas dynamic simulation analysis system based on thermodynamic coupling proposed by the present invention. Detailed Embodiments

[0046] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0047] Refer to Figure 1 , a gas dynamic simulation analysis method based on thermodynamic coupling, including the following steps:

[0048] Step S101: Collect all the reference parameters involved in the ship's marine engine equipment, determine the functional relationships and coupling relationships among the reference parameters, and analyze the functional relationships and coupling relationships among the reference parameters to calculate the sensitivity index and uncertainty index of each reference parameter.

[0049] Among them, the reference parameters include one or more of equipment design parameters, mechanical parameters, thermodynamic parameters, fluid mechanics parameters, and electrical parameters.

[0050] In this embodiment, the equipment design parameters (such as cylinder diameter, stroke, etc.), mechanical parameters (such as rotational speed, torque, etc.), thermodynamic parameters (such as temperature, pressure, etc.), fluid mechanics parameters (such as flow rate, flow velocity, etc.), and electrical parameters (such as voltage, current, etc.) involved in the marine engine equipment are collected. To analyze the characteristics of the reference parameters, it is necessary to first determine the functional relationships and mutual coupling relationships involved in the reference parameters. The functional relationship refers to a clear and deterministic correspondence between two or more variables, that is, the value of one variable can be uniquely determined by the values of other variables through a definite mathematical expression or rule. In marine engine equipment, the functional relationship describes the direct and precisely calculable associations between various parameters. For example, the relationships between power and rotational speed, torque, and the relationship between fuel consumption rate and power. The coupling relationship refers to the relationship of mutual influence and interaction between two or more systems, parameters, or physical fields. This relationship is often complex and non-linear. A change in one parameter will not only affect itself but also affect other parameters or systems through a certain mechanism, and at the same time, the changes in other parameters or systems will also affect this parameter in turn. In marine engine equipment, the coupling relationship reflects the mutual association and restriction between various parts inside the equipment and different physical processes. Thermal-mechanical coupling, in a marine engine, the high temperature generated by combustion will cause the engine components to expand thermally, thereby changing the geometric dimensions and mechanical properties of the components, which will affect the mechanical motion and stress distribution of the engine. Conversely, the changes in mechanical motion and stress distribution may also affect the combustion process, such as affecting the gas flow and mixture formation in the cylinder, and further affecting the combustion efficiency and temperature distribution. This mutual influence between heat and force is the thermal-mechanical coupling relationship.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, determining the functional relationships and coupling relationships between the reference parameters includes,

[0052] Collecting data samples of the reference parameters, distinguishing simple functional relationships and complex functional relationships. For simple functional relationships, describe the simple functional relationships through physical laws or relevant theoretical laws. For complex functional relationships, determine the initialization of the complex functional relationships through mathematical modeling, and optimize the initialization of the complex functional relationships through the data samples of the reference parameters;

[0053] Analyzing the multi-physical field mechanisms and energy and mass transfer mechanisms involved in the marine engine equipment, establishing a coupling model. The coupling model is a physical model coupling or a numerical simulation coupling, and optimizing the coupling model according to the data samples of the reference parameters.

[0054] In this embodiment, for simple functional relationships, such as the relationship between power P, rotational speed n, and torque T, physical laws can be directly used for description. For complex functional relationships, such as the relationship between the fuel consumption rate of an engine and multiple parameters, first initialize through mathematical modeling, such as using a multiple linear regression model, and then optimize the model parameters using data samples. Coupled model establishment: Analyze multi-physical field mechanisms (such as thermal-mechanical coupling, fluid-structure coupling, etc.) and energy and mass transfer mechanisms, and establish a physical model coupling or numerical simulation coupling model. For example, during the combustion process of an engine, the heat transfer and gas flow are coupled with each other, and a coupled model can be established through finite element software and optimized using data samples.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, analyze the functional relationships and coupling relationships between reference parameters to calculate the sensitivity index and uncertainty index of each reference parameter, including

[0056] Screen out the effect parameters that describe the performance or operating status of ship's marine engine equipment among the reference parameters, and establish multiple objective functions between other parameters in the reference parameters and the effect parameters;

[0057] Calculate the correlation between each reference parameter and the corresponding effect parameter in each objective function, obtain the normal value range of each reference parameter, and determine the perturbation amount based on the normal value range and correlation of the reference parameters;

[0058] In the simulation software, perform small perturbations on the reference parameters that bidirectionally perturb each objective function through the perturbation amount. The bidirectional perturbation includes the positive perturbation and negative perturbation of the reference parameters, and statistically calculate the change rates of the effect parameters and reference parameters in the objective function to obtain the central difference as the local sensitivity index;

[0059] For the same objective function, calculate the correlation between different reference parameters, screen out the corresponding relationships of strongly correlated reference parameters, and plot the change of correlation with different value ranges under the corresponding relationship of the reference parameters, so as to determine the standard value range of the reference parameters;

[0060] Use Latin hypercube sampling or Monte Carlo sampling to perform random sampling based on the standard value range of the reference parameters to obtain multiple combinations of reference parameters, and input each combination of reference parameters into the simulation software to obtain the magnitude of the effect parameters on the objective function;

[0061] Evaluate the complexity of each objective function, and select the Sobol index order in combination with the complexity of the objective function and the correlation between different reference parameters under the objective function to determine the global sensitivity index;

[0062] Determine the sensitivity index based on the local sensitivity index and global sensitivity index of each reference parameter;

[0063] Describe the uncertainty index of each reference parameter through probability distribution.

[0064] In this embodiment, the effect parameters describing the performance or operating state of the ship's marine engine equipment are screened out, such as the power and efficiency of the engine. Establish the objective function of other parameters and the effect parameters. For example, taking power as the objective function, establish the objective function of parameters such as rotational speed and torque with power. For the sensitivity case, comprehensively determine the sensitivity index by combining local sensitivity and global sensitivity. Calculate the correlation between the reference parameter and the effect parameter in each objective function, and determine the normal value range of the reference parameter. For example, the rotational speed is generally in the range of 1000 - 3000 rpm. Determine the perturbation amount based on the normal value range and the correlation. The stronger the correlation, the larger the proportion. For example, take 5% of the normal range as the perturbation amount. In the simulation software, perform two-way perturbation on each objective function (such as a 5% positive perturbation and a 5% negative perturbation of the rotational speed), and statistically obtain the change rate of the effect parameter and the reference parameter, and obtain the central difference as the local sensitivity index. The reason for performing a small perturbation is that local sensitivity analysis is based on the local linear assumption, that is, within a small neighborhood of the parameter, the relationship between the objective function and the parameter can be approximated as a linear relationship. If a large-range perturbation is adopted, the relationship between the parameter and the objective function may no longer satisfy the linear assumption, resulting in inaccurate calculation results of local sensitivity. A small perturbation can make the change of the objective function caused by the parameter change in the linear or approximately linear region, thus making the calculation process more stable. For example, when calculating the sensitivity of the engine fuel efficiency to the fuel injection amount, a small change in the fuel injection amount will not cause a drastic non-linear change in the working state of the engine, and can more accurately reflect the influence of the parameter near a specific operating point. A large-range perturbation may cause the system to enter the non-linear working region, making the relationship between the objective function and the parameter complex and unstable. For example, if a large-range perturbation is performed on the fuel injection amount of the engine, it may cause significant changes in the combustion process, heat transfer process, etc. of the engine, resulting in the change of the objective function (such as fuel efficiency) no longer following a simple linear relationship, thus making the calculation of local sensitivity meaningless.

[0065] It can be understood that when calculating the change rate of the objective function, an algorithm with good numerical stability is selected. For example, when calculating the difference, use the central difference formula instead of the unilateral difference formula because the central difference formula has higher numerical accuracy and stability.

[0066] In global sensitivity analysis, the value range of sampled parameters should generally be determined based on the physical meaning of the parameters and the actual working conditions. However, it can also be adjusted to a certain extent according to the correlation between different reference parameters in the objective function. Calculate the correlation between different reference parameters, screen out the corresponding relationships of strongly correlated reference parameters. For example, rotational speed and torque are strongly correlated under certain conditions. Plot the curve of the correlation changing with different value ranges to determine the standard value range of the reference parameters. If there is a strong correlation between some parameters (such as fuel injection quantity and intake pressure may be positively correlated), the value range can be appropriately adjusted during sampling to avoid sampling unreasonable parameter combinations. This correlation can be maintained during sampling to improve the rationality of sampling. For strongly correlated parameters, a conditional sampling method can be used. That is, after the value of a certain parameter is determined, the value range of another parameter is determined according to its correlation. The Sobol index method calculates the sensitivity of parameters by decomposing the variance of the objective function. Its order is usually determined by the complexity of the objective function and the interaction between parameters. The complexity of the objective function is calculated by first-order quadratic, first-order second-order, etc. Combine the complexity of the objective function and the correlation between different reference parameters under the objective function to select the Sobol index order. Select the Sobol index order: According to the complexity of the objective function and the interaction between parameters, select a reasonable Sobol index order. Usually start from the first order and gradually increase the order. Determine the sensitivity index based on the local sensitivity index and global sensitivity index of each reference parameter, and comprehensively consider the calculation of the sensitivity index in both directions.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present application, the uncertainty index of each reference parameter is described by a probability distribution, including

[0068] Draw a histogram of each reference parameter, count the statistics of each reference parameter on the histogram, perform a goodness-of-fit test on each reference parameter to determine the distribution type, establish the original probability distribution of each parameter, and establish the joint probability distribution under the corresponding relationship of strongly correlated reference parameters. Determine the uncertainty index of each reference parameter according to the original probability distribution and the joint probability distribution.

[0069] In this embodiment, a data analysis tool (such as the Matplotlib and Seaborn libraries in Python or the ggplot2 package in R language) is used to draw the histogram. Statistics include kurtosis, skewness, etc. that reflect the distribution. According to the shape of the histogram and domain knowledge, initially guess the possible distribution types, such as normal distribution, uniform distribution, exponential distribution, etc. Goodness-of-fit test method:

[0070] Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (K-S test): Used to test whether the data follows a certain specific distribution.

[0071] Shapiro-Wilk test: Applicable to the normality test of small sample data.

[0072] Chi-square test: Used to test whether the distribution of data is consistent with the theoretical distribution.

[0073] Original probability distribution: According to the results of the goodness-of-fit test, determine the most suitable distribution type, such as the normal distribution N.

[0074] Joint probability distribution: For strongly correlated reference parameters, such as rotational speed and torque, establish a joint probability distribution. Methods such as Copula functions or multivariate normal distributions can be used.

[0075] Uncertainty index: Based on the original probability distribution and the joint probability distribution, calculate the uncertainty of the parameters. Commonly used uncertainty indices include:

[0076] Confidence interval: Such as the 95% confidence interval, indicating that there is a 95% probability that the parameter falls within this interval.

[0077] Coefficient of Variation (CV): The ratio of the standard deviation to the mean, reflecting the relative dispersion degree of the data.

[0078] Step S102, establish a three-dimensional geometric model of the marine engine equipment, and divide the three-dimensional geometric model into multiple regions according to the structure and function of the marine engine equipment.

[0079] In this embodiment, the three-dimensional geometric model is divided into multiple structural regions according to the structural components of the marine engine equipment (such as the cylinders, crankshafts of the engine, etc.). Within each structural region, the region is further divided according to functional differences (such as the combustion chamber, cooling channels of the cylinder, etc.).

[0080] In some embodiments of the present application, the three-dimensional geometric model is divided into multiple regions according to the structure and function of the marine engine equipment, including,

[0081] The three-dimensional geometric model is divided into multiple structural regions according to the differences of the structural components of the marine engine equipment, and within each structural region, the region is further divided according to functional differences.

[0082] Step S103, count the geometric features, reference parameter features and sensitive indices of the reference parameters of each region to determine the required grid density corresponding to the region, perform grid processing on the three-dimensional geometric model based on the grid density, and establish a simulation model of the marine engine equipment on the basis of the functional relationship and coupling relationship between the reference parameters and the three-dimensional geometric model.

[0083] In some embodiments of the present application, the grid density required for each region is determined by statistically analyzing the geometric features, reference parameter features, and sensitivity indices of reference parameters in each region, including:

[0084] Evaluating the geometric complexity of each type of geometric feature to generate evaluation indices;

[0085] Based on the functions of marine engine equipment and multiple physical processes, determine the categories of reference parameters involved in each region, construct a set of reference parameters, where each region corresponds to a set of reference parameters, and statistically analyze the physical field characteristics of the reference parameters. Define the calculation accuracy requirement level based on the evaluation indices of geometric features, the physical field characteristics of reference parameters, and the sensitivity indices of reference parameters, and map a grid density according to the calculation accuracy requirement level.

[0086] In this embodiment, the geometric complexity of each type of geometric feature is evaluated. For example, the shape complexity of a cylinder can be evaluated by calculating indices such as the ratio of its surface area to volume. Based on the equipment functions and physical processes, determine the categories of reference parameters involved in each region and construct a set of reference parameters. Statistically analyze the physical field characteristics of the reference parameters, such as the magnitude of the temperature field gradient. Define the calculation accuracy requirement level based on the evaluation indices of geometric features, physical field characteristics, and sensitivity indices, and map the grid density. For example, regions with a large temperature gradient require a higher grid density. The formula for the calculation accuracy requirement level is as follows: ;

[0087] where, is the calculation accuracy requirement level of the th region. Normalize the geometric features and reference parameter features, , are the conversion coefficients of geometric features and reference parameters respectively, , are the number of geometric features and the number of reference parameters of the th region respectively, is the combination weight of the th geometric feature, is the evaluation index of the th region's th geometric feature, is the combination weight of the th reference parameter, is the evaluation index (describing the complexity level) of the th region's th reference parameter that comprehensively considers all reference parameter features, is the sensitivity index of the th region's th reference parameter, is the The first constant of a reference parameter, is the second constant for the th region, [] is the rounding symbol, indicating the correction of the sensitive indicator to the evaluation indicator of the reference parameter. The first constant is used to balance the magnitude of the correction function, and the second constant is used to balance the magnitude of the calculation accuracy requirement level. The three-dimensional geometric model is meshed according to the determined grid density, and software such as ANSYS Meshing can be used.

[0088] Step S104, assign credibility to the reference parameters in the simulation model according to the uncertainty indicators of the reference parameters, and perform simulation analysis on the ship's turbine equipment through the simulation model to achieve fault identification and prediction;

[0089] In some embodiments of the present application, assigning credibility to the reference parameters in the simulation model according to the uncertainty indicators of the reference parameters includes,

[0090] Statistically calculate the maximum value, minimum value, mode value, and median value of the uncertainty indicators of all reference parameters, calculate the distances between the mode value and the maximum value and the minimum value respectively, and take the minimum distance of the two distances as the proximity distance. Adjust the median value towards the maximum value or the minimum value through the proximity distance to obtain a standard threshold;

[0091] Distinguish strong credible parameters and weak credible parameters among the reference parameters through the standard threshold, and use two mapping relationships to determine the credibility of strong credible parameters and weak credible parameters respectively.

[0092] In this embodiment, statistically calculating the maximum value, minimum value, mode value, and median value of the uncertainty indicators of all reference parameters can comprehensively understand the distribution of the uncertainty indicators. The maximum value and the minimum value can reflect the extreme range of the uncertainty indicators, the mode value reflects the most common value of the uncertainty indicators, and the median value is in the middle position of the data and is not affected by extreme values. By comprehensively considering these statistics, the overall characteristics of the uncertainty indicators can be grasped more accurately. Calculating the distances between the mode value and the maximum value and the minimum value, and taking the minimum distance as the proximity distance, this step is to find a reasonable boundary for subsequent adjustment of the median value. The proximity distance reflects the relative proximity between the mode value and the extreme values, and different proximity distances correspond to different adjustment coefficients, which are corrected in the form of the product of the adjustment coefficient and the median value. The mapping relationships corresponding to strong credible parameters and weak credible parameters are different. By distinguishing strong credible parameters and weak credible parameters through the standard threshold, the reference parameters of the ship's turbine equipment can be classified and managed. Strong credible parameters mean that their uncertainty indicators are low and the data reliability is high; weak credible parameters are the opposite, with high uncertainty indicators and low data reliability.

[0093] In some embodiments of the present application, performing simulation analysis on the ship's turbine equipment through the simulation model includes,

[0094] Set boundary conditions and initial conditions on the simulation model, and fuse the credibility of strongly credible parameters and weakly credible parameters to identify and predict faults.

[0095] In this embodiment, boundary conditions (such as intake pressure, exhaust pressure, etc.) and initial conditions (such as initial temperature, rotational speed, etc.) are set on the simulation model. The credibility of strongly credible parameters and weakly credible parameters is fused, for example, different weights are assigned to parameters with different credibility levels in the simulation calculation. The simulation model is run, and the simulation results are analyzed, such as abnormal changes in parameters such as temperature and pressure. Combining sensitive indicators and uncertainty indicators to identify and predict faults. For example, when the cylinder temperature exceeds the normal range, the sensitive indicator is high, and the uncertainty indicator is low, it may indicate a cylinder fault.

[0096] Correspondingly, the present application also provides a gas dynamic simulation analysis system based on thermodynamic coupling, as Figure 2 shown, including,
