Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of fire smoke extraction, and more particularly to an intelligent underground space smoke extraction system. Background Technology
[0002] Smoke extraction systems are an important component of building fire protection facilities. They are mainly used to quickly remove smoke, high-temperature gases, and toxic gases during a fire, ensuring the safe evacuation of personnel and creating favorable conditions for firefighters to fight fires and conduct rescue operations. Underground spaces, such as underground parking garages, subway stations, civil defense projects, and tunnels, face many unique challenges in the design and operation of their smoke extraction systems due to their enclosed structures and poor ventilation. Underground spaces lack direct external openings, have a limited number of natural smoke extraction vents, and experience slow smoke extraction speeds. Natural smoke extraction relies on the natural ascent of smoke, but the low ceiling heights and winding passageways in underground spaces make it easy for smoke to accumulate in dead corners. Therefore, mechanical smoke extraction equipment plays a crucial role in underground spaces.
[0003] However, due to the relatively enclosed environment of underground spaces, the simultaneous operation of mechanical and natural smoke extraction equipment can lead to several problems: the high-speed suction of mechanical smoke extraction fans may disrupt the thermal pressure difference upon which natural smoke extraction relies, causing some of the exhausted smoke to be re-drawn into the space; the forced airflow from the mechanical system and natural convection can create unpredictable vortices in the complex space, delaying smoke extraction; and when natural and mechanical smoke extraction equipment are both in an enclosed environment, the natural smoke extraction outlet may become an air inlet. In short, the coordinated operation of natural and mechanical smoke extraction requires overcoming challenges such as airflow coupling instability and control timing conflicts.
[0004] Therefore, designing an intelligent underground space smoke exhaust system is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0017] Optionally, the time-series feature extraction module is used to obtain the time-series features of the mechanical smoke exhaust device and the natural smoke exhaust device based on the data of the mechanical smoke exhaust device and the natural smoke exhaust device, respectively.

[0033] Example 1
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the intelligent underground space smoke exhaust system 100 provided in this embodiment includes:
[0035] Mechanical smoke extraction equipment 110 includes a smoke extraction window, the smoke extraction window having an adjustable opening degree;
[0036] Natural smoke exhaust device 120 includes a smoke exhaust fan, said smoke exhaust fan having an adjustable fan speed;
[0037] The sensing module 130 includes a sensor device, which is used to monitor environmental parameters in the underground space in real time.
[0038] The identification module 140 is used to determine the flue gas distribution matrix based on the coordinate parameters of the sensor device and the environmental parameters;
[0039] The control module 150 is used to dynamically adjust the fan speed of the smoke exhaust fan and the opening of the smoke exhaust window based on the data of the smoke distribution matrix, the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and the natural smoke exhaust equipment, so as to reduce the mutual interference between the natural smoke exhaust equipment and the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment.
[0040] Among them, the smoke exhaust fan of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment 110 can quickly expel fire smoke from the building by forced extraction, ensuring the safe evacuation of personnel and the smooth progress of fire rescue. It can quickly extract high-temperature toxic smoke during a fire, prevent smoke accumulation, reduce the temperature of the fire scene, and suppress the spread of fire. It can form an effective airflow organization through negative pressure smoke exhaust and positive pressure air supply.
[0041] The 120-type natural smoke exhaust system features operable exterior windows, skylights, and louvered windows specifically designed for fire smoke extraction. Relying on thermal pressure (chimney effect) and wind pressure, it utilizes the principle of rising hot air currents generated by a fire to expel high-temperature smoke, reducing smoke accumulation within the building and improving visibility. The operable exterior windows, skylights, and louvered windows can all be electrically controlled to ensure effective ventilation area.
[0042] The sensor equipment includes a temperature sensor and a smoke sensor. The sensor equipment is installed on the ceiling of the underground space, covering the entire underground space. The sensing module acquires real-time environmental parameters at various locations in the underground space.
[0043] In this invention, due to cost considerations and placement requirements, sensor devices cannot cover all underground spaces with high density. Data from these sensors alone cannot directly reflect the distribution of smoke throughout the underground space, thus failing to provide a solid data foundation for subsequent smoke extraction system control. Therefore, to address this issue, the identification module 140 uses an algorithm to predict environmental parameters at other locations based on the spatial information of the underground space, the coordinate parameters of each sensor device, and environmental parameters, thereby generating a smoke distribution matrix for the entire underground space.
[0044] Specifically, the identification module 140 acquires spatial information of the underground space and determines the shortest path distance between any two sensor devices based on the spatial information and the coordinate parameters of any two sensor devices. The closer the two sensor devices are, the stronger their correlation; calculating the distance between the two sensor devices can reflect the spatial correlation between data points. However, underground spaces often have walls as obstructions. The straight-line distance between sensor devices located on either side of a wall is very small, while their actual physical paths are relatively long. Therefore, the shortest path distance between sensor devices that bypasses obstacles can better reflect their correlation.
[0045] The shortest path can be selected using algorithms such as Dijkstra's algorithm, Bellman-Ford algorithm, and TEB algorithm. Given n sensor devices in an underground space, any algorithm can be used to calculate the shortest path distance between all known sensor devices, generating an n×n distance matrix.
[0046] The identification module 140 determines the shortest path distance between each prediction point and all sensor devices based on the spatial information of the underground space, the coordinate parameters of the sensor devices, and the coordinate parameters of the prediction points. The prediction points are unknown locations in the underground space where environmental parameters need to be predicted. Predicting the environmental parameters of these prediction points will achieve full coverage of the underground space, reflecting the threat field of flue gas. Calculating the shortest path distance between each prediction point and all known sensor devices reveals the spatial correlation between data points. If there are n sensor devices and m prediction points in the underground space, an n×m distance matrix is generated.
[0047] The identification module 140 determines a weight vector based on the shortest path distance between any two of the sensor devices and the environmental parameters. The weight vector represents the optimal weight of a known data point on a predicted point. The dot product of the weight vector and the matrix formed by the shortest path distance between any two of the sensor devices is equal to the matrix of the environmental parameters, as shown in the following equation:
[0048]
[0049] in, is the matrix of shortest path distances between sensor devices, F is the environmental parameter matrix of the sensor devices, and β is the weight vector.
[0050] The identification module 140 obtains the predicted environment parameters of each predicted point based on the shortest path distance between each predicted point and all sensor devices and the weight vector. The dot product of the matrix of the shortest path distance between each predicted point and all sensor devices and the weight vector is equal to the predicted environment parameter matrix of the predicted point, as shown in the following formula:
[0051] γ·β=z
[0052] Where γ is the matrix of the shortest path distance between each prediction point and all sensor devices, β is the weight vector, and z is the matrix of predicted environmental parameters.
[0053] Finally, the identification module 140 obtains the smoke distribution matrix based on the predicted environmental parameters and coordinate parameters of the predicted points, as well as the environmental parameters and coordinate parameters of the sensors. In other words, it combines the known sensor data points with the predicted points to obtain the smoke distribution matrix of the entire underground space.
[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, the control module 150 includes a spatial coding module 151, a temporal feature extraction module 152, a cross-attention module 153, an interference suppression module 154, and a collaborative decision-making module 155.
[0055] The control module 150 inputs multiple flue gas distribution matrices at different consecutive time points into the spatial encoding module 151 to obtain spatial attention feature maps. Specifically, the spatial encoding module 151 uses a Convolutional Long Short-Term Memory (ConvLSTM) network model. ConvLSTM is a hybrid architecture combining convolutional neural networks and long short-term memory networks, capable of processing spatial and temporal data simultaneously. By introducing convolutional operations into the gating mechanism of LSTM, it preserves the spatial structure of the input data and improves the model's efficiency and performance by utilizing the local receptive field and parameter sharing characteristics of convolutional operations. The spatial encoding module 151 includes dilated convolutional layers, a spatial attention mechanism module, a three-level convolutional feature extraction layer, and a ConvLSTM module.
[0056] The input data for the spatial coding module 151 consists of multiple smoke distribution matrices at different consecutive time points. These matrices are fed into a dilated convolutional layer, which expands the receptive field and captures smoke correlation information over a wider area. The output feature map of the dilated convolutional layer is input into the spatial attention mechanism module. This module calculates the importance weight for each location, highlighting key areas while automatically weakening sensor anomalies, such as points with a weight below 0.2. The spatial attention mechanism module performs spatial attention calculations on the output feature map of the dilated convolution, applying the weights to obtain a weighted feature map. (The text then repeats the three-level convolutional encoding method.) The feature extraction layer extracts spatiotemporal features from the feature map output by the spatial attention mechanism module, resulting in a spatiotemporal feature map. The first-level convolutional extraction layer is used to extract local concentration information, and a 3×3 convolutional kernel can be used to extract local features. The second-level convolutional extraction layer is used to capture regional diffusion patterns, and a 5×5 convolutional kernel can be used to capture regional features over a larger area. The third-level convolutional extraction layer is used to extract global flue gas movement trends, and a 7×7 convolutional kernel can be used to extract global features. The ConLSTM module is used to process multiple consecutive spatiotemporal feature maps, capture the changing trends over time, and output a spatial attention feature map for subsequent task processing.
[0057] The temporal feature extraction module 152 is used to capture the inertial characteristics of the smoke exhaust window and the smoke exhaust fan control, identify the historical dependencies of equipment operation, and analyze the time-varying interaction between natural smoke exhaust and mechanical smoke exhaust. It obtains the temporal features of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and the natural smoke exhaust equipment respectively based on the data of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and the natural smoke exhaust equipment. The data of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and the natural smoke exhaust equipment are the historical dynamic behavior data of the smoke exhaust fan and the smoke exhaust window, respectively. The data of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment includes the fan speed, current, static pressure, and filter pressure difference at different time points. The data of the natural smoke exhaust equipment includes the opening degree of the smoke exhaust window, the wind speed outside the window, the indoor and outdoor temperature difference, and the historical smoke exhaust efficiency at different time points.
[0058] The temporal feature extraction module 152 includes a parallel GRU module and a TCN module. GRU can capture long-term dependencies in time series, while TCN can efficiently extract local temporal features. By combining these two models in parallel, their advantages can be fully utilized to achieve more comprehensive feature extraction. Among them, GRU (Gated Recurrent Unit) is a recurrent neural network that can solve the gradient vanishing and gradient exploding problems of traditional RNNs when processing long sequence data. By introducing a "gating mechanism" to control the flow of information, it can effectively capture long-term dependencies in time series data. TCN (Temporal Convolutional Network) is a time series modeling architecture based on convolutional neural networks, specifically designed for processing time series data.
[0059] The GRU module consists of two layers: the first layer captures short-term fluctuations, and the second layer identifies long-term patterns. The data from mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and natural smoke exhaust equipment are processed by the GRU module to output the long-term time characteristics of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and natural smoke exhaust equipment.
[0060] The TCN module is used to extract local time features of time series. The data from mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and natural smoke exhaust equipment are processed by the TCN module and output as local time features of mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and natural smoke exhaust equipment, respectively.
[0061] The long-term and local time features of the mechanical smoke exhaust device are fused together, and the long-term and local time features of the natural smoke exhaust device are fused together to obtain a comprehensive feature representation. The time-series features of the mechanical smoke exhaust device and the natural smoke exhaust device are then output.
[0062] The cross-attention module 153 is used to obtain a spatiotemporal coupling weight matrix representing the interference region based on the temporal and spatial characteristics of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and the natural smoke exhaust equipment, namely the temporal characteristics and position parameters of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment and the temporal characteristics and position parameters of the natural smoke exhaust equipment. The cross-attention module 153 allows the feature flow of the natural smoke exhaust equipment and the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment to interact with each other through multi-head attention. The output spatiotemporal coupling weight matrix displays the flow cancellation area of the two systems, i.e., the interference region. Among them, the position parameters of the mechanical smoke exhaust equipment include x-coordinate, y-coordinate, distance from the nearest smoke exhaust window, and installation height, and the position parameters of the natural smoke exhaust equipment include x-coordinate, y-coordinate, and orientation angle.
[0063] The cross-attention module 153 maps the input sequence to the query, key, and value spaces respectively. It calculates the attention weights by the dot product of the query and key, and uses the attention weights to perform a weighted summation of the values to obtain the spatiotemporal coupling weight matrix.
[0064] The interference suppression module 154 is used to obtain a suppression heat map based on the spatiotemporal coupling weight matrix, the position parameters of the natural smoke exhaust device and the mechanical smoke exhaust device. The suppression heat map provides a physically reasonable feature representation for the collaborative decision-making module 155, showing the degree of suppression at each location in the space.
[0065] The interference suppression module 154 includes an interference intensity analysis unit and a suppression coefficient generation unit. The spatiotemporal coupling weight matrix of the cross-attention module 154 is input to the interference intensity analysis unit. The interference intensity analysis unit uses 3D convolution to extract the spatiotemporal features of the spatiotemporal coupling weight matrix. The spatiotemporal features are sequentially processed by multi-head attention and max pooling operations to obtain intermediate features. The multi-head attention mechanism is used to analyze the relationship between devices, while the max pooling operation is used to compress the output of multi-head attention in the time and window dimensions. Finally, the interference intensity analysis unit uses a fully connected layer to map the intermediate features into an interference intensity score, with the score range being [0,1].
[0066] The suppression coefficient generation unit generates suppression coefficients based on the interference intensity score. The suppression coefficient represents the degree of interference for each smoke extraction device; a higher suppression coefficient indicates greater interference and requires more suppression, and vice versa. While the interference intensity score directly reflects the degree of interference between smoke extraction devices, these scores may be too sensitive or not sensitive enough in certain ranges. For example, the score may change too quickly or too slowly in certain ranges, making it difficult for the collaborative decision-making module to effectively utilize this information. The suppression coefficient unit maps the score to a more suitable range using a non-linear function (sigmoid function), thus better reflecting the actual interference impact. Furthermore, by setting a lower limit for the suppression coefficient, it ensures that certain feature information is retained even in high-interference regions. This is crucial in practical applications because completely suppressing certain regions may lead to information loss, affecting the overall system performance.
[0067] The suppression coefficient generation unit first adjusts the steepness of the sigmoid function based on the average value of the interference intensity scores. Specifically, it calculates the mean of the interference intensity scores to obtain a scalar, multiplies the mean by 10 to obtain an initial steepness parameter, and restricts the initial steepness parameter to a preset range, such as between 5.0 and 20.0. If the initial steepness parameter is less than the minimum value of the preset range, the minimum value is set as the steepness parameter; if the initial steepness parameter is greater than the maximum value of the preset range, the maximum value is set as the steepness parameter; if the initial steepness parameter is within the preset range, the initial steepness parameter is set as the steepness parameter. This is to ensure that the steepness parameter is not too large or too small, thereby guaranteeing the stability and effectiveness of the sigmoid function.
[0068] The suppression coefficient generation unit obtains the suppression coefficient based on the steepness parameter and the interference intensity score, as shown in the following formula:
[0069] s = sigmoid(k * (a - 0.5))
[0070] Where s is the suppression coefficient, sigmoid() is the sigmoid function, k is the steepness parameter, and a is the interference intensity score.
[0071] The interference suppression module 154 maps the coordinates of the smoke exhaust equipment and the suppression coefficient into a two-dimensional matrix based on the suppression coefficient and the position parameters of the smoke exhaust equipment, thereby forming a suppression heat map.
[0072] The collaborative decision-making module 155 determines the fan speed and smoke exhaust window opening of each smoke exhaust fan based on the spatial attention feature map and suppression heatmap. The collaborative decision-making module 155 employs a reinforcement learning network, including a policy module and a value judgment module.
[0073] The strategy module equips each natural and mechanical smoke exhaust device with an independent strategy sub-network. Spatial attention feature maps, suppression heatmaps, and the location parameters of the smoke exhaust devices are input into the strategy sub-network to obtain the action probability distribution of the smoke exhaust devices, such as changes in the opening degree of the smoke exhaust window or changes in the speed of the fan. The value assessment module establishes an independent value assessment model for each smoke exhaust device, calculating the dominance function value for each state-action pair. The dominance function is:
[0074] A(s,a)=β1Alocal(s,a)+β2Aglobal(s,a)
[0075] =β1(Qi-μ Qi ) / σ Qi +β2α·ΔCsys / Δt
[0076] Where β1, β2, and β3 are weighting coefficients, Alocal(s,a) represents the local advantage of the device, Aglobal(s,a) represents the global advantage of the system, Atime(s,a) represents the time-series advantage, Qi is the action value of smoke extraction device i, and μ Qi and σ Qi These are the mean and standard deviation of Qi, respectively; α is the weight of smoke extraction effect; ΔCsys is the rate of change of system smoke extraction efficiency; and Δt is the time interval.
[0077] Then, the calculated advantage function value is used to update the policy subnetwork, and the objective function is established:
[0078] L(θ)=E t [min(r t (θ)A(s,a),clip(r t (θ), 1-∈, 1+∈)A(s,a))]
[0079] Where θ is the updated policy network parameter, ∈ is the pruning parameter, and r t (θ) is the ratio of the new to the old strategy, clip(r) t (θ), 1-∈, 1+∈) is the clipping function, relative to the ratio r. t (θ) is pruned and restricted to the range [1-∈, 1+∈] to prevent the policy update from being too large. A(s,a) is the advantage function.
[0080] The parameters of the strategy subnetwork are updated by combining the advantage function and the objective function. After multiple iterations, the objective function is maximized. The action that maximizes the objective function is output, namely the fan speed of each smoke exhaust fan and the opening of the smoke exhaust window, which is the optimal strategy.
