[0040] A computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of a generator insulation life prediction method based on Bayesian theorem.

[0041] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: First, by combining multiple prediction methods and using Bayesian theorem to dynamically update the posterior probability, the accuracy of the prediction is significantly improved, and the errors in traditional methods are reduced. Secondly, the method can be dynamically adjusted according to the previous prediction results in each prediction cycle to ensure that the prediction results are optimized as the equipment status changes, avoiding the limitations of fixed prediction models. In addition, the present invention comprehensively considers multiple factors such as partial discharge, electrical aging, thermal aging, etc., and more comprehensively evaluates the insulation life of the equipment, overcoming the problem of ignoring the interaction of multiple factors in the prior art. The method also reduces unnecessary downtime and maintenance through accurate life prediction and reasonable arrangement of maintenance cycles, reduces equipment maintenance costs, and improves the reliability and safety of the equipment.

[0051] In the third prediction cycle, the insulation life of the generator is predicted using the same type of insulation life prediction method to obtain the third prediction value of each method; the posterior probability of the second prediction result is used as the prior probability of the third prediction to calculate the third prediction value.

[0052] The posterior probability is updated according to each predicted value and used as the prior probability for the next prediction until all prediction cycles are completed.

[0053] The insulation life prediction method includes but is not limited to the partial discharge parameter prediction method, the D image method and the NY image method;

[0054] The partial discharge parameter prediction method measures electrical parameters, calculates the ratio of the residual breakdown voltage to the rated voltage, and predicts the remaining life of the equipment.

[0055] The D-image method predicts the residual breakdown voltage and the remaining life of the equipment through the discharge index and the maximum partial discharge amount;

[0056] The NY image method comprehensively considers the effects of electrical aging, thermal aging, and hot and cold cycles, and performs a weighted average of the residual breakdown voltage to predict the remaining life of the equipment.

[0057] The partial discharge parameter prediction method is expressed as,

[0058]

[0059] Among them, U BD is the residual breakdown voltage value; U n is the rated voltage value; Q m is the maximum partial discharge; tanδ0 is the dielectric loss tangent at 2kV; R1 is the insulation resistance value for 1min; C0 is the capacitance at 2kV.

[0060] The D image method is expressed as,

[0065]

[0066] Wherein, U0 is the initial breakdown voltage value; is the residual breakdown voltage caused by electrical aging; is the residual breakdown voltage caused by thermal aging; is the residual breakdown voltage caused by thermal cycling.

[0067] The generator insulation life prediction is carried out during the generator A-level maintenance. The parameters required for the partial discharge parameter prediction method, D image method and NY image method are obtained through the A-level maintenance.

[0068] Example 2, reference Figure 4 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention, provides a generator insulation life prediction method based on Bayesian theorem. In order to verify the beneficial effects of the present invention, scientific demonstration is carried out through experiments.

[0069] For a power plant generator, a Class A overhaul was performed in 2014, and the insulation life was first predicted. The insulation life of the generator was predicted to be 54 years, 56 years, and 49 years using the partial discharge parameter prediction method, the D image method, and the NY image method, respectively. The final predicted value of the generator insulation life in 2014 is L1 = 54 / 3 + 56 / 3 + 49 / 3 = 53 years.

[0070] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the generator underwent another Class A overhaul in 2019, and a second insulation life prediction was performed. The prior probabilities for the partial discharge parameter prediction method, the D image method, and the NY image method were 1 / 3. The partial discharge parameter prediction method, the D image method, and the NY image method predicted the generator insulation life to be 52 years, 40 years, and 45 years, respectively. The calculated probabilities of overlap between N(L21,1), N(L22,1), N(L23,1) and N(L11+R2,1), N(L12+R2,1), and N(L13+R2,1) on the probability distribution diagram were P(2|1,1) = 79%, P(2|1,2) = 61%, and P(2|1,3) = 72%, respectively.

[0071] The posterior probabilities of the second prediction are calculated as follows:

[0072] P21=P(2|1,1)×1 / 3 / (P(2|1,1)×1 / 3+P(2|1,2)×1 / 3+P(2|1,3)×1 / 3)=37%

[0073] P22=P(2|1,2)×1 / 3 / (P(2|1,1)×1 / 3+P(2|1,2)×1 / 3+P(2|1,3)×1 / 3)=29%

[0074] P23=P(2|1,3)×1 / 3 / (P(2|1,1)×1 / 3+P(2|1,2)×1 / 3+P(2|1,3)×1 / 3)=34%

[0075] Therefore, the final predicted value of the generator insulation life in 2019 is L2=L21×P21+L22×P22+L23×P23=46 years.

[0076] Example 3 is the third embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first two embodiments in that:

For purposes of this specification, a "computer-readable medium" can be any device that can contain, store, communicate, propagate, or transport a program for use by, or in conjunction with, an instruction execution system, apparatus, or device.

[0081] Example 4, the fourth embodiment of the present invention, provides a generator insulation life prediction system based on Bayesian theorem, including.

[0082] A prediction module is used to predict the insulation life of the generator by using at least two insulation life prediction methods, obtain the prediction value of each method, and calculate the posterior probability of the prediction result;

[0083] The Bayesian calculation module is used to calculate the posterior probability based on the initial prior probability and predicted value of each prediction method using the Bayesian theorem, and to update the prior probability in each subsequent cycle until all prediction cycles are completed;

[0084] The data update module is used to store the updated posterior probability of each prediction value and use the updated posterior probability as the prior probability of the next prediction, thereby recursively completing the calculation of multiple prediction cycles.

[0085] Example 5, with reference to Figure 1-Figure 3 The fifth embodiment of the present invention provides a method for predicting the insulation life of a generator based on Bayesian theorem, including:

[0086] 1) If Figure 1As shown in the figure, the first prediction of the generator insulation life is made in year T1, and the generator insulation life is predicted to be L11 years, L12 years and L13 years by the partial discharge parameter prediction method, D image method and NY image method respectively;

[0087] 2) In the first prediction, the prior probabilities of the partial discharge parameter prediction method, the D image method, and the NY image method are P01, P02, and P03, respectively, and the posterior probabilities are P11, P12, and P13, respectively, with P01 = P02 = P03 = P11 = P12 = P13 = 1 / 3;

[0088] 3) The final predicted value of the generator insulation life in year T1 is L1 = L11 × P11 + L12 × P12 + L13 × P13;

[0089] 4) The predicted values ​​of generator insulation life obtained by the partial discharge parameter prediction method, D image method and NY image method are normally distributed. In the first prediction, the distribution of the predicted values ​​of generator insulation life obtained by the partial discharge parameter prediction method is N(L11,1), the distribution of the predicted values ​​of generator insulation life obtained by the D image method is N(L12,1), and the distribution of the predicted values ​​of generator insulation life obtained by the NY image method is N(L13,1);

[0090] 5) The generator insulation life prediction is carried out during the generator A-level overhaul. The parameters required for the partial discharge parameter prediction method, D image method and NY image method are obtained through the A-level overhaul. RN is the interval between the Nth A-level overhaul of the generator, N = 1, 2, 3, ..., that is, T2 = T1 + R2 years, T3 = T2 + R3 years, ..., TN = T(N-1) + RN years. The interval between A-level overhauls is usually 4 to 6 years.

[0091] 5) The posterior probabilities P(N-1)1, P(N-1)2, and P(N-1)3 calculated for the N-1th prediction are used as the prior probabilities for the Nth prediction, and the posterior probabilities PN1, PN2, and PN3 for the Nth prediction are obtained by calculation;

[0092] 6) If Figure 2 As shown in the figure, after an interval of R2 years, the second prediction of the generator insulation life is performed in year T2. The generator insulation life is predicted to be L21 years, L22 years, and L23 years by the partial discharge parameter prediction method, the D image method, and the NY image method, respectively. The prior probabilities of the partial discharge parameter prediction method, the D image method, and the NY image method in the second prediction are 1 / 3, respectively.

[0093] 7) During the second prediction, the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the partial discharge parameter prediction method is N(L21,1), the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the D image prediction method is N(L22,1), and the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the NY image prediction method is N(L23,1);

[0094] The probabilities of the overlapping parts of N(L21,1), N(L22,1), N(L23,1) and N(L11+R2,1), N(L12+R2,1), N(L13+R2,1) on the probability distribution graph are calculated as P(2|1,1), P(2|1,2), P(2|1,3) respectively.

[0095] The posterior probabilities of the second prediction are calculated as follows:

[0096] P21=P(2|1,1)×1 / 3 / (P(2|1,1)×1 / 3+P(2|1,2)×1 / 3+P(2|1,3)×1 / 3)

[0097] P22=P(2|1,2)×1 / 3 / (P(2|1,1)×1 / 3+P(2|1,2)×1 / 3+P(2|1,3)×1 / 3)

[0098] P23=P(2|1,3)×1 / 3 / (P(2|1,1)×1 / 3+P(2|1,2)×1 / 3+P(2|1,3)×1 / 3)

[0099] Therefore, the final predicted value of the generator insulation life in year T2 is L2=L21×P21+L22×P22+L23×P23

[0100] 8) If Figure 3 As shown in the figure, by analogy, the Nth prediction of the generator insulation life is performed in TN years. The generator insulation life is predicted to be LN1 years, LN2 years, and LN3 years by the partial discharge parameter prediction method, D image method, and NY image method respectively; N = 1, 2, 3, ...

[0101] 9) The posterior probabilities P(N-1)1, P(N-1)2, and P(N-1)3 calculated for the N-1th prediction are used as the prior probabilities for the Nth prediction.

[0102] 10) In the N-1th prediction, the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the partial discharge parameter prediction method is N(L(N-1)1,1), the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the D image prediction method is N(L(N-1)2,1), and the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the NY image prediction method is N(L(N-1)3,1);

[0103] 11) During the Nth prediction, the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the partial discharge parameter prediction method is N(LN1,1), the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the D image prediction method is N(LN2,1), and the distribution of the predicted value of the generator insulation life obtained by the NY image prediction method is N(LN3,1);

[0104] Calculate the probabilities of the overlapping parts of N(LN1,1), N(LN2,1), N(LN3,1) and N(L(N-1)1+RN,1), N(L(N-1)2+RN,1), N(L(N-1)3+RN,1) on the probability distribution graph respectively, which are P(N|N-1,1), P(N|N-1,2), P(N|N-1,3).

[0105] The posterior probabilities of the second prediction are calculated as follows:
