Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of gas insulated switchgear (GIS) insulation defect detection, and particularly relates to a gas insulated switchgear partial discharge identification method and system based on unsupervised domain adversarial transfer learning, especially novel environment-friendly SF6 gas and C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas. BACKGROUND
[0002] Gas insulated switchgear (GIS) has been widely used in modern power systems due to its small size, convenient maintenance, and high reliability. However, during manufacturing, transportation, installation, and operation, GIS inevitably has insulation defects, which can easily cause different types of partial discharge (PD). Partial discharge can cause insulation performance degradation and even equipment failure or safety accidents, so accurate identification of partial discharge types is of great significance for the stable operation and safety of GIS.
[0003] Currently, the commonly used insulation gas in GIS is sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), which has excellent insulation performance and arc extinguishing ability. However, its global warming potential (GWP) is as high as about 23500 times (based on carbon dioxide), making it a strong greenhouse gas with serious environmental impact. Therefore, the use of SF6 gas is strictly limited, and there is an urgent need to develop alternative gases. In recent years, environmentally friendly insulation gases such as heptafluoroisobutyl cyanide (C4F7N) have become one of the important substitutes for SF6 gas due to their excellent insulation properties and lower environmental impact. Usually, C4F7N is mixed with CO2 to reduce the liquefaction temperature and improve the insulation strength; further adding a certain proportion of O2 can effectively improve the insulation performance of the mixed gas and inhibit the decomposition of C4F7N. Therefore, C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas is considered as one of the ideal solutions to replace SF6 gas.
[0004] The partial discharge detection methods of GIS mainly include pulse current method (PCM), ultra-high frequency (UHF) method, ultrasonic (UL) method and optical detection method. Among them, the UHF method and the UL method are most widely used because of their online detection capability. However, the existing PD identification models are mostly established based on data under SF6 gas conditions. Although these models show high identification accuracy under SF6 conditions, when applied to C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas, due to the obvious domain difference (Domain Shift) between the partial discharge signals of the two gases, the recognition accuracy of the traditional model under the condition of new type of insulating gas is significantly reduced.
[0005] To solve the above problems, the usual way is to construct an independent PD identification model for each type of insulating gas. However, this method has the following disadvantages:
[0006] (1) The independent construction of identification models for different insulating gases significantly increases the cost of model development and maintenance.
[0007] (2) The PD data of new type of insulating gas such as C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas is relatively scarce, and the data volume is not enough to fully train a new identification model, which seriously restricts the promotion and application of new type of insulating gas.
[0008] Therefore, how to develop a high-precision PD identification method that can be applied to both traditional SF6 gas and new type of insulating gas (such as C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas) under limited data conditions has become one of the key problems to be solved in the current GIS partial discharge monitoring technology.
[0009] In view of the above problems, the present application proposes a new type of environmentally friendly gas insulated switchgear partial discharge identification method based on unsupervised domain adversarial transfer learning, which can effectively improve the accuracy and reliability of the new type of environmentally friendly gas GIS partial discharge detection, thereby providing a new type of technical solution for the safe operation of new type of environmentally friendly gas GIS equipment, and has significant engineering application value.

[0059] S1. Construct a partial discharge experimental platform, based on real GIS equipment, simulate four typical discharge defects (needle, suspension, particle and surface) under SF6 gas and C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas conditions, respectively, and collect ultra-high frequency (UHF) and ultrasonic (UL) partial discharge signal data.
[0060] S2. Perform feature analysis and processing on the acquired PD signals, use time domain waveform analysis, frequency domain Fourier transform and statistical feature extraction methods, etc., to mine the differences between different insulation gas discharge signals, and construct a data feature set for modeling.

[0062] S4. Three-stage training strategy

[0064] Classifier training stage: freeze the encoder, maximize the output difference of the double classifier on the target domain data, and provide an optimization direction for subsequent adversarial training.
[0065] Adversarial optimization stage: freeze the classifier, train the encoder and the domain discriminator, minimize the domain discriminant loss and the classifier output difference, and realize cross-domain feature alignment.
[0066] S5. Performance verification
[0067] The model performance is verified by using mixed signal input, t-SNE visualization analysis, confusion matrix evaluation and the like, and performance tests are carried out in combination with different target domain sample proportions, signal-to-noise ratio conditions and signal type input modes to evaluate the performance of the model in terms of recognition accuracy, robustness and sample dependency.
[0068] The specific method of step (1) is:
[0069] To realize effective acquisition and analysis of partial discharge (PD) signals under the condition of new insulation gas, the present application designs and builds a set of partial discharge experimental platform based on actual 252 kV gas-insulated switchgear (GIS), as shown in Figure 1 The experimental platform can simulate typical discharge defects under controllable conditions and carry out comparative experiments in traditional SF6 gas and new C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas environments.
[0070] Experimental gas and pressure setting
[0071] The experiment is carried out under two insulation gas conditions: one is the traditional SF6 gas, and the other is the environmentally friendly mixed gas with a volume fraction ratio of 8.5% C4F7N / 86% CO2 / 5.5% O2. Both gases are maintained at an insulation pressure of 0.5 MPa during the experiment to ensure comparability.
[0072] Typical defect construction
[0073] To comprehensively study various discharge behaviors, the platform is provided with four typical partial discharge defects, including needle defect, floating defect, particle defect and surface defect, as shown in Figure 2
[0074] · Needle discharge: simulated by a metal needle with a diameter of 8 mm and a length of 20 mm.
[0075] · Floating discharge: a metal bolt is fixed by epoxy resin at a distance of 8 mm from the upper conductor and 5 mm from the lower conductor.
[0076] · Particle discharge: a metal microsphere with a diameter of 0.5 mm is placed on the surface of the conductor and wrapped in an epoxy tube.
[0077] · Surface discharge: a cylindrical epoxy block with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 20 mm is placed between the conductors, and the upper and lower electrodes are contacted by bolts.
[0078] These structures simulate typical insulation defects that may occur in GIS devices in operation, ensuring the engineering representativeness of experimental data.
[0079] Sensor arrangement and signal acquisition
[0080] Two types of non-intrusive sensors are used in the experimental platform for PD signal acquisition:
[0081] • UHF sensor: frequency range 0.3-1.5 GHz, installed on the GIS handle hole cover plate, used to collect electromagnetic radiation signals;
[0082] • UL sensor: frequency range 20-100 kHz, adhered to the GIS shell surface, used to collect ultrasonic signals.
[0083] The distance between the sensor and the defect is uniformly set to 30 cm to control the influence of spatial variables. The system uses a Haefely DDX 9121b high-precision PD detector to measure the initial discharge voltage, and all signals are recorded synchronously by a LeCroy 204XI-A high-speed oscilloscope to ensure data accuracy and consistency.
[0084] Data acquisition strategy
[0085] Under each gas, each defect type, and each sensor combination, 10,000 PD signal data are collected, and a high-quality PD data set containing 160,000 samples is constructed. This data set not only covers multiple discharge types and working conditions, but also provides a solid data foundation for subsequent signal analysis and model training.
[0086] The specific method of step (2) is:
[0087] To construct a high-precision partial discharge recognition model suitable for various insulation gas environments, the present application conducts systematic multi-dimensional feature analysis on the collected PD signals. The analysis includes time domain waveform structure, frequency domain spectrum distribution, and statistical characteristic differences, aiming to explore the signal differences and commonalities exhibited by various discharge defects in different gas media.
[0088] Time domain feature analysis
[0089] By comparing the original PD signal waveforms collected by UHF and UL sensors, the time domain response characteristics of different discharge defect types in SF6 gas and C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas are identified (see Figure 3 ). The results show that:
[0090] • The UHF signals generally exhibit high-speed pulses with abrupt changes near time zero, followed by rapid decay, reflecting the transient nature of charge acceleration and radiation in PD. The decay rate of particle discharge is significantly slower than other discharge types, indicating a more persistent charge release process.
[0091] • The UL signal waveforms have strong gas dependence. In SF6 gas, the UL waveforms of different discharge types have high distinguishability, while in C4F7N / CO2 / O2 gas, the signal waveforms tend to be consistent, showing reduced ability to distinguish defect types.
[0092] This phenomenon indicates that UHF signals are more stable in the two gas environments and have cross-domain universality, while UL signals are more sensitive to gas properties and are suitable for extracting domain-specific features.
[0093] Frequency domain feature analysis
[0094] Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is applied to the time-domain PD signals to obtain their frequency spectrum distribution, revealing the energy characteristics of different discharge types in the frequency dimension. The analysis results are shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 .
[0095] • The frequency spectrum of UHF signals is mainly concentrated in the 0.3-1.5 GHz band, and the spectral shape difference between SF6 gas and C4F7N / CO2 / O2 gas is small. This is due to the fact that UHF signals are formed by high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, and their frequency components are greatly affected by PD transient current, while the conductivity and dielectric constant of the two gases are close, resulting in similar excitation mechanisms.
[0096] • Although UHF signals are similar in overall shape, statistical analysis shows that there are certain differences in the high-order characteristics of the spectrum. The inventors calculated the kurtosis and skewness of the UHF spectrum, and observed significant differences in floating discharge and other types, with specific values shown in Table 1.
[0097] Table 1 Kurtosis and skewness of UHF partial discharge signals
[0098]
[0099] In contrast, UL signals in the frequency domain show obvious gas dependence. In the 20-30 kHz frequency band, the PD signals generated by SF6 gas have higher energy than those generated by C4F7N / CO2 / O2 gas (see Figure 5 ). This difference is due to the influence of gas molecular mass and acoustic impedance on the propagation of sound waves formed after PD. SF6 molecules have a larger mass, resulting in lower vibration frequency and more concentrated energy in the low frequency band.
[0100] Comprehensive feature construction
[0101] Based on the comprehensive time-domain and frequency-domain analysis results, the following multi-dimensional features are designed for modeling:
[0102] Time-domain features: peak value, charge quantity, pulse width, signal duration, initial rising rate, etc.
[0103] Frequency-domain features: main frequency, average frequency, spectral energy density, spectral peak value, spectral kurtosis and skewness
[0104] Statistical features: signal distribution symmetry, energy concentration, etc.
[0105] Label information: defect type identification and gas domain identification as auxiliary training input.
[0106] This feature system can effectively capture the signal differences between different gas environments and discharge types, and provide a transferable structured feature space basis for subsequent transfer learning models.
[0107] The specific method of step (3) is:
[0108] In order to overcome the problem of degradation of recognition performance caused by significant domain differences in partial discharge signal features under different insulation gas conditions, the present application proposes a dual-classifier unsupervised domain adversarial model (Dual-Classifier Unsupervised Domain Adversarial, DCUDA) based on unsupervised transfer learning framework. By introducing an adversarial training strategy and feature consistency discrimination mechanism, the model realizes the alignment of features between the source domain and the target domain, thereby significantly improving the recognition accuracy and robustness of the model in the target domain under the premise of only requiring a small amount of labeled samples in the target domain.
[0109] The core structure of the DCUDA model consists of three modules: an encoder, two parallel classifiers, and a domain discriminator. First, the encoder is responsible for feature extraction of the input PD signal (which can be UHF or UL signal, or a mixture of the two). In order to fully capture the time sequence structure and cross-time scale information contained in the partial discharge signal, the encoder integrates various neural network modules such as one-dimensional convolution (Conv1D), residual convolution network (ResCNN) and Transformer structure (see Figure 6 ). Among them, the initial 1D convolution layer uses a larger convolution kernel (size 7) to increase the receptive field and extract local context features; then four layers of ResCNN structure are introduced, which can not only deepen the network structure, but also alleviate the gradient vanishing and improve the convergence stability through residual connection; finally, three layers of multi-head attention Transformer module are connected, which significantly enhances the model's ability to perceive long-range dependencies and non-local structures in PD signals.
[0110] In order to intuitively present the distribution of the high-dimensional characteristics of the PD signal under different gas conditions, the t-SNE algorithm is used to reduce the dimension and visualize the characteristics of the encoder output (see Figure 7 ). In SF6 gas, the feature clustering effect of different defect categories is good, and the boundary between categories is clear, indicating that the model has good separability; while in C4F7N / CO2 / O2 mixed gas, the feature distribution is significantly mixed, and the boundary between different categories is blurred, indicating that the model trained directly using SF6 is difficult to generalize to the target domain, representing a significant domain shift phenomenon.
[0111] To solve the above problems, the present application sets two classifiers with the same structure but not sharing parameters in parallel after the encoder (see Figure 8 ). Each classifier is composed of an average pooling layer and two linear fully connected layers. The two classifiers are trained to be consistent in the source domain data, but are guided to output different classification results as much as possible in the target domain, thereby providing training signals for the encoder to learn shared domain invariant features under the premise that the target domain data lacks labels. The greater the difference between the predictions of the two classifiers for the same target domain sample, the less consistent the target domain feature distribution with the source domain, and vice versa, indicating a higher degree of domain alignment. Therefore, by minimizing this difference in the subsequent training stage, the encoder is effectively guided to learn feature representations with cross-domain consistency.
[0112] At the same time, to further improve the consistency of the feature space for the source domain and the target domain, the present application designs a domain discriminator module for source / target domain discrimination of the features extracted by the encoder (see Figure 9 ). In the forward propagation process, the features first pass through the gradient reversal layer (Gradient Reversal Layer, GRL) into the discriminator. The role of GRL is to automatically reverse the gradient sign in the backpropagation phase, thereby forcing the encoder to generate "domain indistinguishable" features that are difficult to be identified by the domain discriminator. The domain discriminator is composed of a residual convolution module and a ReLU activation function inside, outputs the domain discrimination probability, and is optimized through the binary cross-entropy loss function. The discriminator and the encoder form a game relationship: the discriminator tries to maximize the discrimination ability between the source domain and the target domain, while the encoder tries to minimize this ability, i.e. to achieve cross-domain feature alignment.
[0113] The overall training process of the DCUDA model is divided into three stages, as follows Figure 10The first stage is a pre-training stage, in which the encoder and the two classifiers are trained using a large amount of SF6 source domain data, so that they have good classification ability on the source domain. The second stage freezes the encoder and only trains the two classifiers, with the goal of maximizing the output difference of the two classifiers on the target domain data, thereby expanding the discriminant boundary and providing an optimization direction for subsequent adversarial training. In the third stage, the classifiers are frozen, and the encoder and the domain discriminator are retrained. At this time, the encoder is guided to extract shared features that are consistent for the outputs of the two classifiers and cannot be identified by the domain discriminator, thereby finally realizing the alignment and migration of the source domain and the target domain in the feature space and solving the problem of inconsistent feature distribution caused by different gas compositions.
[0114] The specific method of step (4) is:
[0115] To comprehensively evaluate the partial discharge (PD) recognition performance of the double-classifier unsupervised domain adversarial transfer learning (DCUDA) model proposed in the application under different gas medium conditions, the application constructs a systematic performance verification method and experimental device. This method not only covers the overall classification accuracy test of the model on the source domain and the target domain, but also further considers the adaptability of the model to data proportion changes, signal input methods, and noise interference and other actual working conditions.
[0116] In the model training and testing process, the UHF and UL original PD signals collected by the experimental platform are first subjected to Fourier transform by the "data processing module", and the spectral features thereof are extracted as model input data. The PD signals under SF6 gas are used as source domain data, and the PD signals under C4F7N / CO2 / O2 gas are used as target domain data, and the two are constructed into a training set and a test set in an adjustable proportion, wherein the proportion of target domain samples in the training set is adjusted as a hyperparameter. Under the standard setting, the proportion of source domain and target domain test data is fixed at 1:1 to ensure the fairness of the evaluation indicators.
[0117] In the "training module", the model undergoes three stages of pre-training, classifier training and adversarial optimization, and finally completes the optimal fitting of the DCUDA model structure parameters. During the training and optimization process, the classification loss, the classifier output difference loss and the domain discrimination loss are minimized to realize cross-domain feature alignment and class separation. After optimization, the "test module" is entered, the test set data is input into the model and the class prediction results are output, the classification accuracy, confusion matrix, t-SNE visualization distribution and other performance indicators are calculated by comparing with the true labels, to quantify the generalization ability and migration performance of the model under actual working conditions. The final test results are shown in Table 2.
[0118] Table 2 Model test results
[0119]
[0120] To verify the robustness of the model, the present application also tests the noise robustness of the model under different signal-to-noise ratios. In the original signal, Gaussian noise with SNR of 25 dB and 5 dB is superimposed respectively, and the results show that the DCUDA model still maintains 97.6% of the target domain recognition accuracy under high noise interference, showing good anti-interference ability.
[0121] In addition, to evaluate the influence of the proportion of target domain data on the performance of the model, the present application system tests the classification accuracy when the proportion of target domain samples is 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, 0.001 and 0.0005 respectively. The results are shown in Table 3, although the target domain samples are extremely rare (for example, only 0.001 times of the source domain samples), the DCUDA model can still maintain a high accuracy of 98.79% in the target domain, indicating that the model has a small dependence on target domain data and has strong low sample generalization ability.
[0122] Table 3 Influence of data proportion on model performance
[0123]
[0124] Further, the present application also uses the t-SNE dimensionality reduction visualization method to compare and analyze the distribution of the DCUDA model and other comparative models (such as ResNet, Transformer, LSTM) in the source domain and target domain feature space. The results show that although the traditional model has good classification ability in the source domain, it shows obvious feature domain offset phenomenon in the target domain; while the DCUDA model realizes the high overlap of the source domain and target domain features, indicating that it realizes effective domain alignment in the deep space.
[0125] In summary, the present application maximizes the output difference of the target domain by using double classifiers, and realizes cross-domain feature alignment under unsupervised conditions by combining the adversarial training of the domain discriminator, solving the limitation of traditional methods that rely on target domain labeled data. Combined with Conv1D, ResCNN and Transformer modules, the local and global features of the PD signal are fully extracted, and the representation ability of the model for complex signals is enhanced. The encoder, classifier and domain discriminator are optimized in stages, and the feature alignment is gradually realized, which significantly improves the convergence speed and generalization performance of the model. The present application provides an efficient and reliable technical solution for the recognition of new environmental gas GIS equipment partial discharge, and has important engineering application value.
[0126] Although the specific embodiments of the present application have been described above in combination with the drawings, it is not a limitation on the scope of protection of the present application, and those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations made by those skilled in the art without creative labor on the basis of the technical solutions of the present application are still within the scope of protection of the present application.
