Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of vacuum circuit breakers and relates to a method and system for evaluating the vacuum condition of a vacuum interrupter. Background Art

[0002] Vacuum circuit breakers are highly favored by power system users for their excellent dielectric strength, arc-extinguishing capability, and pollution-free properties, and they hold a dominant position in the medium-voltage field. As a core component, the vacuum interrupter plays a crucial role, and research on it has primarily focused on optimizing the electric field to increase breakdown voltage and improving the magnetic field to enhance high-current interrupting capability. The vacuum level is also one of the primary factors determining the interrupting capacity of the vacuum interrupter; a decrease in the vacuum level will also weaken the interrupting capacity. Long-term use of a vacuum circuit breaker will reduce the vacuum level within the interrupter, reducing the circuit breaker's arc-extinguishing capability and insulation performance, impacting its protective function and shortening the life of the equipment. Therefore, it is of great significance to have a convenient and accurate method for evaluating its vacuum level.

[0003] The traditional commonly used power frequency withstand voltage method and magnetron discharge method, although these two methods are simple in principle and easy to operate, the power frequency withstand voltage method can only detect arc chambers with serious air leakage, and is powerless for vacuum arc chambers in a critical state; the magnetron discharge method has disadvantages such as poor measurement repeatability. Although the field emission current method, post-arc emission current method, high-frequency pre-breakdown current method, arc voltage method, etc. have been proposed, they have not been studied in depth due to experimental conditions. Taking advantage of the fact that the magnitude of the field emission current is proportional to the intensity of the X-rays generated, some scholars proposed the X-ray quantity tracking method in the early 21st century. This method integrates the X-ray release intensity measured by the X-ray dose rate meter and the vacuum degree inside the vacuum arc chamber, and obtains the rule that the lower the vacuum degree, the smaller the X-ray release amount. However, it is only applicable to discrete data, and the data sample is relatively simple. It has not formed a universal system for judging the vacuum condition, and the accuracy is low. Although the X-ray intensity method does not require a magnetic field, it only fits through physical formulas (such as exponential decay). In the critical range of vacuum (10 -2 ~10 -1 The data of Pa (Pa) fluctuate violently due to the electron avalanche effect, which is difficult to be accurately described by traditional mathematical models.

[0004] The development of machine learning technology has provided new methods and insights for exploring the underlying patterns of complex nonlinear relationships. The application of machine learning can deeply explore the relationship between X-ray intensity and vacuum level, improving the accuracy and reliability of vacuum level detection compared to traditional methods. Bagging, a method based on bootstrapping, is typified by Random Forest (RF). It further introduces random feature selection based on bagging to reduce model correlation. RF can be used to predict curves, reducing variance by constructing multiple decision trees in parallel. It is suitable for high-dimensional data and noisy scenarios, but may not adequately fit complex nonlinear relationships. Boosting is an iterative ensemble learning method that trains multiple weak learners sequentially, adjusting sample weights or optimizing the objective function each time to gradually correct the errors of the previous models and ultimately combine them into a strong learner. Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) is a typical example. XGBoost uses gradient boosting to serially optimize residuals. It excels at capturing subtle local patterns but is more susceptible to overfitting. Summary of the Invention

[0160] in, is the prediction variance, which reflects the uncertainty of the model’s prediction of the current state. is the uncertainty threshold; , is the mean historical forecast error, is the standard deviation of historical forecast values;

[0161] is the rate of change of failure probability, is the actual pressure change in the system, is the time interval.

[0162] Theoretically, this method can reduce the relative error of vacuum degree prediction, improve accuracy, enhance the robustness of the critical region, meet the needs of real-time monitoring, and thus realize the evaluation of the vacuum degree condition of the vacuum interrupter.

[0163] This paper proposes an X-ray dose tracking and assessment method that combines random forest (RF), generative adversarial network (GAN), and XGBoost, enabling assessment of the vacuum condition of vacuum interrupters. First, based on bremsstrahlung theory, an explicit physical correlation between X-ray intensity and vacuum is established. Through microscopic modeling of the electron free path, key parameters such as the anode atomic number and field emission current are incorporated into an interpretable framework, resulting in a clearer physical meaning than traditional black-box models. In the feature extraction stage, a logarithmic transformation is performed to compress the data scale, highlighting the physical characteristics of electron energy and collision frequency. Furthermore, an asymmetric noise model is employed to overcome the limitations of Gaussian noise. The skewness coefficient is used to simulate the ionization skew distribution during vacuum degradation, making data enhancement more physically accurate. In the hybrid segmented modeling stage, random forest pre-training dynamically demarcates the critical region using the Gini coefficient and feature importance (NI, VI), addressing the rigidity of traditional thresholding methods. XGBoost staged training employs a physically constrained robust loss to suppress outlier interference in the critical region while maintaining high accuracy in the stable region. The present invention also carries out a deep fusion of physics and machine learning: the lightweight physical network layer directly calculates the analytical solution of the electron free path as the feature input, realizing the cross-scale coupling of mechanism and data; dynamic feature weighting modifies the physical parameter weights through the importance of random forest features, balancing data-driven and prior knowledge. In order to perform double verification, the generative adversarial network is introduced: the GAN framework implements a dual discrimination mechanism, Used to verify data distribution, Hard-coded constraints enforce compliance The generator loss dynamically balances MSE accuracy, physical compliance, and countermeasures against deception by setting loss term weight coefficients, aiming to reduce the prediction variance in the critical region. Finally, to adapt to engineering applications, this invention uses uncertainty quantification to output prediction confidence intervals and support risk warnings. Based on Bayesian probability, Monte Carlo sampling is used to output the probability of prediction results, establishing a three-level warning mechanism that implements composite triggering, failure protection, and adaptive updates.

[0164] Example 2

[0165] In order to verify the effectiveness of the evaluation method in the present invention, the following vacuum comparison system is established. The system consists of a vacuum interrupter 8, whose sample model can be BD390, BD392 or BD395, a vacuum pool 6, a mechanical pump 5, a molecular pump 4, an air inlet valve 2, a needle valve 7, a nitrogen bottle 1 and an ionized silicon tube 3. Figure 2 It is a vacuum comparison system, including a nitrogen bottle 1, an air inlet valve 2, an ionized silicon tube 3, a molecular pump 4, a mechanical pump 5, a vacuum pool 6, a needle valve 7, and a vacuum interrupter 8. One side of the vacuum interrupter 8 is connected to the vacuum pool 6 via the needle valve 7, and the other side of the vacuum pool 6 is connected to the nitrogen bottle 1 via the air inlet valve 2. The vacuum pool 6 is equipped with an ionized silicon tube 3, and the mechanical pump 5 and the molecular pump 4 are connected in series and then connected to the vacuum pool 6. Figure 3 This is a flow chart of the method for determining the vacuum degree of an X-ray vacuum interrupter based on random forest-GAN-XGBoost.

[0166] During the experimental preparation stage, a vacuum pump group (mechanical pump and molecular pump working in series) is used to evacuate the vacuum chamber until the system reaches the basic vacuum limit. Inert gas is injected into the cavity through a controllable air intake system (such as an N2 gas source with a precision needle valve). When the gas injection rate and the pumping rate reach a dynamic equilibrium, a stable target vacuum degree P0 is formed in the cavity. Since the arc extinguishing chamber and the vacuum chamber are connected through an air duct, the internal pressures of the two can be considered equal. Subsequently, all gas path valves are closed, the spacing between the movable electrodes is adjusted to the experimental set value, and a 60kV power frequency test voltage is gradually applied. Under this condition, field-induced electron emission occurs on the cathode surface, and high-energy electrons bombard the anode target under electric field acceleration, generating X-rays based on the bremsstrahlung effect. When the ray intensity reaches the detectable threshold, a calibrated X-ray dosimeter (1 meter away from the arc extinguishing chamber) is used to measure the radiation intensity P d0 , complete the first data calibration. By adjusting the intake parameters to change the system vacuum to P1, repeat the above measurement process to obtain P d1 , and establish characteristic data sets of vacuum degree-X-ray intensity in turn.

[0167] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of an X-ray measurement, including a vacuum interrupter 8, an X-ray dosimeter probe 9, a power-frequency voltage source 10, and a computer 11. The vacuum interrupter 8 and the power-frequency voltage source 10 are connected in series to form a loop. The X-ray dosimeter is placed 1 meter away from the vacuum interrupter 8 and then connected to the computer 11 to collect data in real time.

[0168] After data acquisition is completed, the vacuum degree and X-ray intensity are logarithmically transformed to construct the electron quantity characteristics and collision frequency characteristics; at the same time, a critical region asymmetric noise model is set to enhance the data.

[0169] A hybrid segmented model is then established, dynamically determining the critical region based on the standard deviation of the training data. A total loss function is set, and physical and boundary constraints are introduced based on Bremsstrahlung theory. A generative adversarial network (GAN) discriminator is added to the original hybrid model to enhance physical constraints, ensuring that the prediction results are both credible based on physical laws and the distribution of real data. A generator and a discriminator are set up, and both generator and discriminator loss functions are introduced. Physical compliance is determined based on hard-coded physical rules, and the output is a predicted X-ray intensity value and a binary discrimination result. Figure 5 Create a flow chart for the hybrid segmentation model.

[0170] Random forest pre-training is then performed, with the feature matrix input, feature importance calculated, and critical regions determined. XGBoost phased training is then performed, with a lightweight physical network layer added before XGBoost to directly obtain an approximate analytical solution for the electron mean free path. Dynamic feature weighting is also introduced to supplement feature engineering. Finally, feature construction and vacuum degree prediction are performed, while uncertainty quantification is introduced. Monte Carlo sampling is performed on the prediction results to achieve Bayesian probability output, establishing a three-level early warning mechanism.
