Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of energy consumption prediction of mining equipment, and in particular to a method for predicting energy consumption of mining equipment. Background Art

[0002] As the mining industry transitions toward intelligent and green operations, energy consumption prediction technology for mining equipment has become crucial for improving energy efficiency and reducing operating costs. Traditional energy consumption prediction methods primarily rely on single-dimensional operating data, such as current and speed, combined with linear regression or shallow machine learning models for prediction. However, the complex and ever-changing mining production environment, with equipment operating conditions dynamically switching between excavation, transportation, and no-load conditions, and the influence of multiple factors such as ore hardness and environmental parameters, present challenges for existing technologies: Insufficient data fusion: Mining equipment energy consumption involves heterogeneous data from multiple sources, including operating parameters, production processes, and the environment. Existing systems often rely on independent data collection and lack spatiotemporal correlation modeling, resulting in the loss of key features and an inability to fully reflect the drivers of energy consumption.

[0003] Weak model generalization: Traditional models rely on historical data from specific equipment for training, making them difficult to adapt to the differences between different equipment models or mining scenarios. For example, the energy consumption characteristics of crushers and dump trucks vary significantly, but existing transfer learning technologies fail to effectively extract common energy consumption patterns across devices, resulting in a sharp drop in model prediction accuracy in new scenarios.

[0004] Poor real-time performance: Mining equipment must respond to changes in operating conditions in real time to achieve energy-saving control. However, traditional methods rely on centralized cloud-based computing, which results in high data transmission latency and limited edge computing capabilities, making it difficult to meet the needs of millisecond-level real-time predictions. Furthermore, inefficiencies in missing data repair and noise filtering further impact the timeliness of predictions.

[0005] Furthermore, existing data preprocessing methods often employ wavelet transforms or Kalman filters for noise reduction, but these methods lack robustness to non-stationary noise. Missing data repair often relies on time series interpolation, ignoring the spatial correlations between devices. Furthermore, static classification methods based on threshold rules or support vector machines struggle to capture the temporal dependencies of dynamic switching between operating conditions, leading to delayed recognition or misjudgment.

[0006] These problems have resulted in the prediction accuracy of traditional methods generally being below 80%, the equipment idling rate being high, exceeding 30%, and the space for optimizing unit energy consumption being limited, making it impossible to meet the efficient energy-saving needs of intelligent mines. Summary of the Invention

Generative adversarial networks combined with empirical mode decomposition are used to separate valid signals from noise. Missing data is reconstructed based on the correlation between the spatial location of the device and the time series using a spatiotemporal interpolation network. Dynamic operating condition identification and feature extraction: Hidden Markov models are used to identify equipment operating conditions in real time, including excavation, transportation, no-load, full-load, half-load, and standby. Key energy consumption characteristics under different operating conditions are extracted using an attention mechanism. Adaptive prediction model construction: Build a cross-device transfer learning framework to train a universal energy consumption prediction model in the cloud using historical data from multiple mines and multiple equipment models. Then, use a small amount of local data from the target equipment to fine-tune the parameters of the universal model. Edge-cloud collaborative prediction and optimization: A lightweight prediction model is deployed on the device side for real-time energy consumption prediction and abnormal warning.

[0026] Furthermore, the spatiotemporal interpolation network constructs the device spatial position association matrix based on the graph neural network, and combines it with the long short-term memory network to process time series data, realizing the reconstruction of missing data through spatiotemporal joint modeling.

[0027] Furthermore, in the dynamic working condition identification and feature extraction steps, the observation sequence of the hidden Markov model is the time series feature vector of the equipment operation data. The transition probability of each working condition is calculated through the forward-backward algorithm. The attention mechanism assigns weights to the energy consumption characteristics under different working conditions to highlight the key influencing factors.

[0028] Furthermore, the cross-device transfer learning framework includes: A general feature extraction layer based on a deep neural network, trained with multi-source device data to learn common energy consumption characteristics across devices; The output layer specific to the target device fine-tunes the parameters of the general feature extraction layer using the local data of the target device to form a prediction model adapted to the specific device.

[0029] Furthermore, in the edge-cloud collaboration step, the parameter scale of the lightweight prediction model is compressed by 60%-80% compared with the original deep learning model, supports localized prediction under offline conditions, and can continue to run for ≥72 hours when the network is disconnected.

[0030] Furthermore, the global energy-saving strategy includes: Real-time planning of the optimal driving path for dump trucks based on ore grade and transportation routes; Adjust the start and stop sequence of high-power equipment, such as air compressors and fans, based on real-time electricity prices; Construct an energy flow model for the entire mining area to achieve coordinated optimization of electricity and fuel.

The energy consumption status includes the equipment energy consumption heat map and the energy flow trajectory of the production line.

[0032] Furthermore, in the prediction-control closed-loop feedback step, the deviation rate between the actual energy consumption of the equipment and the predicted value is used as the optimization target, and the parameters of the adaptive prediction model and the global energy-saving strategy are iteratively updated through the gradient descent algorithm.
