Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of transformer state monitoring and fault diagnosis, and in particular relates to a method and system for characterizing oil-immersed transformer fault deduction based on multi-physical field simulation. Background Art

[0002] Transformers, as the most crucial substation equipment in the complex power system, play a crucial role in ensuring the reliability of the entire power grid and the safety of power users. They perform the critical tasks of voltage conversion and energy distribution. A failure in a transformer can easily cause voltage fluctuations, localized power outages, or even widespread blackouts, resulting in significant losses and inconvenience to society. Therefore, predicting and diagnosing transformer failures to ensure safe operation is crucial.

[0003] Due to the complex internal structure of transformers and the high voltage and high current conditions involved, conducting actual fault experiments requires significant investment in equipment, site construction, and specialized personnel for operation and maintenance. Furthermore, fault experiments are irreversible and non-repeatable, potentially causing permanent damage to the transformer. Furthermore, energy loss and the potential for equipment damage during the experiment are significant, making direct large-scale fault experiments challenging. Against this backdrop, multi-physics simulation, with its relatively low cost, high repeatability, and ability to simulate a wide range of complex operating conditions, has become a primary approach for transformer fault research and data collection. By constructing mathematical models to simulate the transformer's operating state under the coupled effects of multiple physical fields—electrical, magnetic, thermal, and mechanical—a wealth of critical data can be obtained. However, this approach is currently limited to the study of fault mechanisms and has not been integrated with transformer fault prediction and diagnosis.

[0004] Current transformer fault prediction and diagnosis methods still have numerous shortcomings. In terms of data foundation, these methods rely on datasets dominated by normal operating data, while fault sample data is extremely scarce. This often results in models trained on such data lacking sufficient recognition and accuracy when encountering real-world fault scenarios. Furthermore, traditional methods often focus on monitoring and analyzing a single physical quantity or a few relevant parameters, and only analyze faults within a single timeframe, failing to fully utilize time-series data. For example, they rely solely on oil temperature changes, winding insulation resistance measurements, and oil gas concentrations to determine transformer status. This single-dimensional analysis fails to fully consider the combined effects of the interconnected multi-physical fields of transformers in complex operating environments, making it difficult to capture weak signals and potential characteristics in the early stages of a fault. Furthermore, traditional methods are prone to missing faults in their incipient stages because the signals are weak and masked by a large amount of normal data. Diagnosis is often delayed until the fault develops to a more severe level, with noticeable abnormal changes in physical quantities. This significantly increases the difficulty and cost of fault handling, posing a serious threat to the safe and stable operation of the power grid. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method and system for oil-immersed transformer fault deduction and characterization based on multi-physics field simulation, which integrates multi-physics field simulation data, monitoring feature data and type discrimination of typical transformer faults, and effectively solves the problem of being unable to carry out effective experimental testing due to the scarcity of fault samples and high experimental costs; by constructing high-precision geometric models and multi-physics field models, and combining deep learning algorithms to mine the deep mapping relationship between internal faults and external monitoring data, it can accurately identify various fault types such as loose core, loose winding, winding deformation, oil channel blockage, etc., and significantly improve the accuracy and timeliness of fault diagnosis.
