Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electrical equipment fault diagnosis, and in particular to a partial discharge pattern recognition method and device. Background Art

[0002] As a core component of the critical infrastructure of power systems, electrical equipment performs crucial functions such as power conversion, transmission, and distribution. Its operating performance and operating conditions are directly related to the reliability and stability of the overall power system. When the dielectric properties of the equipment's insulation degrade due to factors such as material aging, manufacturing defects, or environmental stress, the electric field distribution becomes distorted. This non-uniform electric field environment can lead to partial discharge (PD) in areas of weak insulation. PD is essentially a repetitive gas ionization process caused by microscopic defects within the insulation.

[0003] From the perspective of insulation degradation mechanisms, partial discharge (PD) exhibits dual characteristics: it serves as a typical indicator of early insulation degradation and, through the combined effects of charged particle bombardment, thermal effects, and chemical corrosion during the discharge process, accelerates the irreversible degradation of insulation properties. Therefore, research on PD pattern recognition has significant theoretical significance and engineering application value for improving the management of power equipment throughout its lifecycle and ensuring the safe and economical operation of power grids.

[0004] The key to partial discharge pattern recognition lies in extracting discriminative feature parameters that can accurately characterize its discharge type. The current mainstream feature extraction methods mainly include phase distribution mode (Phase Resolved Partial Discharge, PRPD) and time distribution mode (Time Resolved Partial Discharge, TRPD). Among them, the PRPD method collects discharge pulse signals within multiple power frequency cycles to construct a two-dimensional map reflecting the distribution pattern of discharge in voltage phase. It is suitable for identifying discharge types with obvious phase characteristics. However, this method's reliance on large-scale time series data leads to high computational complexity and low processing efficiency.

[0005] The TRPD method studies single pulses of partial discharge (PD) and classifies them by analyzing their characteristic parameters in the time or frequency domain. This method offers advantages in computational efficiency and is suitable for real-time signal processing. However, due to the inherent non-stationary and highly transient nature of PD signals, their spectral distribution is complex and time-varying. Therefore, single-domain analysis in the time or frequency domain is difficult to fully characterize and can easily result in the loss of important information.

[0006] To this end, researchers introduced time-frequency analysis technology and achieved joint characterization in the time and frequency dimensions by constructing time-frequency graphs of PD signals. This method can effectively reveal the changing patterns of signals in time and frequency, and provide richer feature expressions for the recognition of complex discharge patterns. Based on this, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), as a typical deep learning structure, has been widely used in automatic feature extraction and classification tasks of time-frequency graphs. CNN can mine high-order spatial features from input images, avoiding the subjectivity and limitations of artificial feature design. However, the convolution kernel size of traditional CNN networks is fixed, making it difficult to capture multi-scale discharge features at the same time, and its modeling ability is limited when processing time-dependent sequence data, resulting in reduced recognition performance.

[0007] Considering the temporal correlation of partial discharge signals, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network was introduced to capture the long-term dependencies in time series, demonstrating excellent performance in modeling non-stationary signals. However, standard LSTM networks only utilize information from the current time step and before, making it difficult to fully exploit backward time series features, limiting their ability to express global temporal context.

[0008] To further enhance the model's comprehensive modeling capabilities for sequence information, a bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) neural network was proposed. This architecture introduces two LSTM networks, one forward and one backward, to handle the forward and backward dependencies of a time series, respectively. This allows for joint modeling of the contextual information of the entire input sequence, significantly enhancing the ability to express complex time series features. Summary of the Invention

[0059] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0060] As shown in the figure, the partial discharge pattern recognition method provided by the embodiment comprises the following steps. Figure 1

[0061] S1, acquiring the collected partial discharge signal of the high-voltage electrical equipment.

[0062] Specifically, the transient signal of a plurality of typical partial discharge types in one power frequency cycle is collected by using a high-frequency current sensor. The power frequency cycle is, for example, 20 ms / 50 Hz.

[0063] S2, preprocessing the partial discharge signal to obtain a single pulse signal.

[0064] Specifically, the partial discharge signal pulse in one power frequency cycle is extracted to obtain a single pulse signal of the partial discharge, and the interception width of each pulse can be set to 50 μs.

[0065] S3, calculating the CWT coefficient of the unit pulse of the partial discharge, and generating a time-frequency diagram of the single pulse based on the CWT coefficient.

[0066] Specifically, the calculation method of the CWT coefficient of the unit pulse is as follows:

[0067] ;

[0068] wherein, denotes a scale parameter, and denotes a stretching factor of the wavelet base function on the time axis; denotes a translation position of the wavelet function on the time axis, and is used to analyze the local characteristics of the signal at a specific time; x(t) is the single pulse signal of the partial discharge; denotes time.

[0069] Further, the time-frequency diagram of the single pulse is generated based on the CWT coefficient, and specifically comprises:

[0070] ​The absolute value of the CWT coefficient represents the energy intensity of the signal at different frequencies and time points, and converts the scale parameter a into the actual frequency f, and the specific formula is as follows:

[0071] ;

[0072] Where f center is the center frequency of the wavelet base, is the sampling interval of the single pulse signal of partial discharge.

[0073] The horizontal axis is set as the time axis of the time-frequency diagram, covering the complete duration (50 μs) of the single pulse signal; the vertical axis is the frequency axis, covering the main frequency band range of the single pulse signal of partial discharge. The time-frequency diagram uses Jet color spectrum to represent energy intensity, and the more the color deviates from warm color, the stronger the energy. The finally generated time-frequency diagram image size is 64x64x3, where 64x64 represents that the resolution of the image is 64 rows x 64 columns of pixels, and 3 represents three color channels in RGB format.

[0074] S4, input the time-frequency diagram into the trained multi-scale convolutional neural network MCNN, and the multi-scale convolutional neural network MCNN performs feature fusion to obtain spatial feature representation.

[0075] Specifically, the constructed MCNN is composed of two parallel convolution channels, and the features are merged through an addition fusion layer. The structure of the two channels includes a convolution layer, a batch normalization layer, an activation function layer, a maximum pooling layer and a fully connected layer. The first channel adopts multiple small size convolution kernels (3x3 and 4x4) to enhance the perception ability of local detail features and slight changes, which is suitable for capturing local texture and edge information; the second channel uses a larger size convolution kernel (7x7) to extract structural features with more global perception ability, which is helpful to understand the overall distribution pattern of the signal.

[0076] The multi-scale convolutional neural network MCNN performs feature fusion to obtain spatial feature representation, specifically including:

[0077] The generated time-frequency diagram is used as the input of the constructed MCNN network. The two parallel convolution channels contained in the network are respectively used to extract the local features and global features of the input time-frequency diagram. After the convolution operation, feature extraction and processing through the full connection layer are completed in each channel, the outputs of the two channels are fused in the form of "element-by-element addition" to generate the final spatial feature representation. The fused features have both local detail perception and global structure understanding ability, realizing the collaborative expression of local and global information.

[0078] S5, inputting the spatial feature representation into a trained bidirectional long short-term memory neural network BiLSTM to obtain a spliced ​​sequence of partial discharge features; the spliced ​​sequence includes temporal feature representations of forward and backward semantic information.

[0079] Specifically, the fused feature vector output by the MCNN network is flattened and converted into a one-dimensional feature sequence. Subsequently, the sequence is divided into several time steps, each time step corresponding to a local area or feature block in the original time-frequency graph to ensure the structural consistency of subsequent time series modeling. Next, the feature sequence is input into the BiLSTM for time series feature extraction, where the BiLSTM network contains two substructures: a forward LSTM network and a reverse LSTM network. The forward LSTM processes the features of each time step step by step in chronological order to capture historical dependency information; the reverse LSTM processes the feature sequence in reverse chronological order to extract the potential impact of future states on current features. Finally, the output results of the forward and reverse LSTM networks are spliced ​​in the feature dimension to form a time series feature representation that contains both forward and backward semantic information.

[0080] S6 inputs the spliced ​​sequence into the trained attention mechanism Attention network, focuses on the key segments of the spliced ​​sequence, extracts global semantic features, inputs the global semantic features into the fully connected layer, and outputs the discharge type and fault type used to characterize the partial discharge signal through the classification function.

[0081] Specifically, the concatenated sequence output by the BiLSTM network is introduced as input into the Attention network. The Attention network calculates the importance score for each time step in the sequence and assigns a corresponding weight coefficient based on the score. The feature vectors of all time steps are then weighted and summed according to the weights to produce a semantic representation vector that incorporates global context information. This semantic representation vector is then input into a fully connected layer and finally normalized using a Softmax function to output a corresponding multi-class classification probability distribution, which characterizes the discharge type or fault category to which the input sample belongs.

[0082] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be further explained through specific examples as follows.

[0083] The present invention adopts the partial discharge data in transformer oil collected by the laboratory using a high-frequency current sensor, including three fault types: surface discharge, bubble discharge and needle-plate discharge. For each discharge type, 20 sets of data are collected. The sampling period of each set of data is one power frequency cycle (20ms), and the programming environment is Matlab2024a.

[0084] Depend on Figure 2It can be seen that a plurality of pulse signals are contained in one power frequency cycle, so the original signals collected are segmented into single pulse signals, as shown in Figure 3 200 single pulse signals are extracted for each of the three fault types, CWT is used to generate the time-frequency diagram of the single pulse of partial discharge, and a data label is added, label 1 represents surface discharge, label 2 represents bubble discharge, and label 3 represents needle-plate discharge. After setting the labels, the training set and the test set are divided, and 160 data of each fault type are selected as the training set and 40 data are selected as the test set.

[0085] As shown in Figure 4 The training set data is input into the MCNN-BiLSTM-Attention model built for training, and cross-entropy is used as the loss function of the model. When the convergence condition is reached, the training is completed, and the model parameters are saved. The test set is input into the trained model, and the diagnostic results of the test set are as shown in Figure 5 The diagnostic accuracy of surface discharge is 85%, the diagnostic accuracy of bubble discharge is 85%, the diagnostic accuracy of needle-plate discharge is 100%, and the average diagnostic accuracy is 90.83%.

[0086] To verify the effectiveness of the feature extraction of the MCNN-BiLSTM-Attention model, t-SNE is used to visualize the features of the partial discharge signal in two dimensions, wherein Figure 6 is the original time-frequency diagram feature before the model has learned, Figure 7 is the feature extracted before the final classification of the model. By comparing the two graphs, it can be seen that before feature extraction, the three types of faults overlap significantly in two-dimensional space, and the clustering is not clear. After the model is trained, the three types of fault samples are obviously clustered, and each type forms an independent and compact cluster, indicating that the model can successfully extract features with strong discriminability and high discrimination after training.

[0087] As shown in Figure 8 The embodiment also discloses a partial discharge pattern recognition device, which comprises:

[0089] A single pulse signal acquisition module is configured to pre-process the partial discharge signal to obtain a single pulse signal;

[0090] A single pulse time-frequency diagram generation module is configured to calculate the CWT coefficient of the unit pulse of the partial discharge, and generate a time-frequency diagram of the single pulse based on the CWT coefficient;

[0091] A multi-scale convolutional neural network processing module is used to input the time-frequency map into the trained multi-scale convolutional neural network MCNN, and the multi-scale convolutional neural network MCNN performs feature fusion to obtain spatial feature representation;

[0092] A bidirectional long short-term memory neural network processing module is used to input the spatial feature representation into a trained bidirectional long short-term memory neural network BiLSTM to obtain a spliced ​​sequence of partial discharge features; the spliced ​​sequence includes a temporal feature representation of forward and backward semantic information;

[0093] The Attention network processing module is used to input the spliced ​​sequence into the trained Attention network, focus on the key segments of the spliced ​​sequence, extract global semantic features, input the global semantic features into the fully connected layer, and output the discharge type or fault type used to characterize the partial discharge signal through the classification function.

[0094] The specific implementation of each module of a partial discharge pattern recognition device is the same partial discharge pattern recognition method, which will not be repeated in this embodiment.

[0095] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
