Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of dynamic monitoring of oil wear particles, and in particular relates to a method and system for dynamic monitoring of oil wear particles based on deep learning. Background Art

[0002] In existing technologies, oil wear particle monitoring mainly relies on wear particle detection and analysis based on traditional equipment such as optical microscopes and laser particle size analyzers. Traditional methods require manual intervention and collect oil samples for offline analysis to determine the lubrication status and wear of the equipment. This method can monitor equipment wear to a certain extent, but it has limitations in many aspects.

[0003] Traditional oil wear particle monitoring methods mostly require manual operation, have low data processing efficiency, and have long monitoring cycles. They make it difficult to achieve real-time equipment status monitoring. Equipment wear problems cannot be discovered in the early stages, which may result in maintenance measures being taken only when serious equipment failures occur, resulting in unnecessary downtime and economic losses.

[0004] In existing technologies, the detection of oil wear particles is mostly based on simple particle counting or size measurement methods. These technical means cannot fully capture the key information of the shape, composition, and type of the wear particles, which are the key indicators of the equipment wear characteristics. Traditional methods are difficult to fully and accurately characterize the wear status of the equipment. In addition, due to the complex morphology and chemical composition of the wear particles, traditional detection methods lack sufficient intelligent means to automatically analyze and classify complex data, which limits their application scope and detection accuracy.

[0005] Traditional oil wear particle monitoring systems cannot be automated and intelligent. Existing monitoring systems often rely on a single data collection and analysis method, lack processing capabilities based on big data and artificial intelligence, and are unable to cope with complex and changing industrial environments. In actual applications, as the equipment operating time increases and working conditions change, the wear pattern of the equipment often changes dynamically. Existing monitoring methods lack adaptability and responsiveness to dynamic changes.

[0006] In summary, the existing technologies have the following main shortcomings: First, traditional oil wear particle monitoring methods cannot achieve real-time monitoring, making it difficult to provide early warning of equipment wear problems; second, existing technologies cannot fully capture the multi-dimensional characteristics of wear particles, and the detection accuracy is limited; third, existing systems lack intelligent and automated processing capabilities, making them difficult to adapt to complex industrial application environments.

Through adversarial training, the discriminator can effectively distinguish between real and generated wear particle images, thereby improving the system's ability to recognize wear particles in complex industrial environments. Compared with traditional rule-based recognition methods, the introduction of a two-layer generative adversarial network not only improves the detail fidelity of the wear particle image, but also optimizes the accuracy and reliability of wear particle feature classification.

The system can dynamically calculate the wear status index of the equipment based on the type, size, quantity and chemical composition characteristics of the abrasive particles, and compare it with the set threshold in real time. Once the threshold is exceeded, the system will automatically trigger the early warning mechanism to notify the relevant maintenance personnel to take timely maintenance measures, thereby improving the real-time and automation level of the monitoring system and avoiding economic losses caused by equipment downtime due to failure.

[0124] A deep learning-based dynamic monitoring system for oil wear particles includes the following modules:

[0125] The sensor module is used to collect real-time data on oil wear particles in the equipment lubrication system, including the number, size, shape and chemical composition of wear particles;

[0126] a data processing module configured to receive the oil wear particle data collected by the sensor module, and perform pre-processing, standardization, and denoising on the oil wear particle data;

[0127] A two-layer generative adversarial network model, including a first-layer generator, a second-layer generator, and a discriminator, generates and discriminates wear particle image features and classifies them to generate wear particle feature data;

[0129] The early warning module automatically generates abnormal warning information and notifies maintenance personnel when abnormal equipment wear is detected;

[0130] The data storage and visualization module stores monitoring data and displays the equipment operating status and wear particle characteristic change trends through visualization tools.

[0131] Example 2: Example 2 is the application of the present invention in wind power generation equipment. In a coastal wind farm, hundreds of wind turbines operate under harsh climatic conditions every day. The moisture, salt spray and high wind speed in the environment have a continuous impact on the lubrication system of the equipment. Monitoring abrasive particles in the lubricating oil is the key to ensuring the normal operation of wind turbines. However, traditional abrasive particle monitoring methods often rely on manual sampling, with a long detection cycle, and it is difficult to detect early wear problems of equipment in a timely manner.

[0132] To solve this problem, the wind farm decided to introduce the present invention to achieve real-time monitoring of the wear status of the lubrication system. The system is deployed on each wind turbine in the wind farm. Sensors are used to collect lubricating oil samples in real time and monitor the characteristics of abrasive particles in the oil. During operation, the system continuously analyzes multi-dimensional data on the number, size, and chemical composition of abrasive particles, thereby dynamically evaluating the wear status of the equipment.

[0133] During a monitoring process in May 2023, the monitoring system discovered an abnormality in the equipment of the wind turbine generator set numbered "W001". The system collected real-time data that the number of abrasive particles in the lubricating oil began to increase rapidly, from 50 per milliliter to 75. At the same time, the average size of the abrasive particles also increased from 5.2 microns to 6.2 microns. The system automatically determined that the abrasive data exceeded the preset threshold and generated the first abnormal wear warning report at 14:32 on the same day.

[0134] Monitoring data revealed a significant increase in the copper content of the abrasive particles. Analysis indicated that the bearings within the equipment might be experiencing abnormal wear. Equipment monitoring personnel confirmed this anomaly through system-generated reports and received an early warning at 2:35 PM. Based on the real-time data provided by the system, the maintenance team decided to shut down the equipment for inspection at 5:00 PM that same day.

[0135] Inspection revealed that the bearings of equipment W001 were severely worn, and the amount of metal particles in the lubricant exceeded the permitted limit. Further analysis of the particle shape, size, and composition determined that the primary cause of the wear was bearing lubrication failure and increased metal friction due to long-term operation. The maintenance team immediately repaired the equipment's lubrication system and replaced the damaged bearing assembly, successfully averting a further equipment failure.

[0136] During this period, another device numbered "W002" also had a similar wear warning. After monitoring that the number of abrasive particles in the W002 device increased from 65 to 85 per milliliter, and the abrasive particle size increased from 5.8 microns to 7.0 microns, the system generated another abnormality report at 10:12 on May 18. Through the report automatically generated by the system, the maintenance personnel quickly located the wear problem and decided to conduct further inspections on the equipment.

[0137] Test results for equipment W002 showed significantly elevated levels of iron in the abrasive particles. System analysis revealed that friction may have generated a large number of wear particles from the bearing's external material. The monitoring system recorded the growth trend of iron particles in the equipment's lubricating oil in real time and issued an emergency alert at 10:15. The maintenance team implemented timely downtime maintenance based on the data and successfully repaired damaged parts, preventing a more serious equipment failure.

[0138] To better verify the effectiveness of the system of the present invention, we selected 10 devices in a wind farm and conducted dynamic monitoring of oil wear particles for three months. The results were compared with traditional methods. Table 1 below shows the monitoring data of some devices:

[0139] Table 1 Comparison of data from oil wear dynamic monitoring system

[0140]

[0141] As can be seen from the data in Table 1 above, the system of the present invention can respond quickly when abnormal wear is detected. In the monitoring of device W001, the system generated an abnormal wear warning report at 14:32 when it found a rapid increase in the number and size of abrasive particles. The equipment inspection at 17:00 confirmed the wear of the bearing. In comparison, traditional manual inspection methods require monthly sampling and analysis, which takes up to 30 days. This means that with traditional methods, the wear problem of device W001 may not be discovered until 30 days later, which will put the equipment at greater risk of damage.

[0142] During the monitoring of equipment W002, the system found that the number of abrasive particles increased from 65 to 85 per milliliter and generated an abnormal warning report at 10:12. The maintenance team quickly performed shutdown maintenance based on this data and repaired the equipment wear problem at 13:00 that afternoon. Traditional methods, due to the long detection cycle, were unable to detect early signs of equipment wear in a timely manner.

[0143] The system of the present invention can not only monitor changes in the number and size of abrasive particles in real time, but also further identify the root cause of equipment wear by analyzing the chemical composition of the abrasive particles. During the monitoring of the W004 equipment, the system analyzed the copper content in the abrasive particles and found that the metal particles in the lubricating oil exceeded the standard. It generated an abnormal warning report at 11:00, reminding maintenance personnel to perform emergency maintenance operations. Traditional methods cannot provide real-time data due to the long sampling cycle, which may cause equipment wear problems to be delayed.

[0144] Through practical application in wind turbines, the proposed oil wear particle dynamic monitoring system, based on a two-layer generative adversarial network model, has demonstrated its exceptional real-time monitoring capabilities. By analyzing multidimensional data on the number, size, shape, and chemical composition of wear particles, the system generates timely warning reports for early signs of lubricant wear. This helps guide maintenance personnel in performing precise maintenance, thus preventing major equipment failures. Compared to traditional detection methods, this system boasts higher response speed and detection accuracy, effectively reducing equipment maintenance costs and improving operational reliability.

[0145] The present invention introduces a visual transformer model in wear particle image processing and uses a self-attention mechanism to realize the global feature extraction of wear particle images. Unlike traditional local image analysis methods, the visual transformer divides the wear particle image into several image blocks and embeds each image block, and then extracts the global dependency of the wear particle image through the self-attention mechanism. It can capture the multi-dimensional features of the wear particles more comprehensively and accurately, including the shape, size and surface details of the wear particles.

[0146] The present invention adopts a two-layer generative adversarial network model, which includes two generators and a discriminator. The first-layer generator generates a preliminary wear particle image, and the second-layer generator enhances the details of the wear particle image based on the first-layer generation, making it closer to the real wear particle image. Through adversarial training, the discriminator can effectively distinguish between real and generated wear particle images, thereby improving the system's ability to recognize wear particles in complex industrial environments. Compared with traditional rule-based recognition methods, the introduction of a two-layer generative adversarial network not only improves the detail fidelity of the wear particle image, but also optimizes the accuracy and reliability of wear particle feature classification.

[0147] The present invention realizes real-time monitoring of the equipment's lubrication status and wear conditions by deploying a trained two-layer generative adversarial network model in the monitoring system. The system can dynamically calculate the equipment's wear status index based on the type, size, quantity and chemical composition characteristics of the abrasive particles, and compare it with the set threshold in real time. Once the threshold is exceeded, the system will automatically trigger an early warning mechanism to notify relevant maintenance personnel to take timely maintenance measures, thereby improving the real-time and automation level of the monitoring system and avoiding economic losses caused by equipment downtime due to failures.

[0148] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
