Description

I. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of digital twin technology and industrial automation control, specifically a visualization and intelligent management system for the ash conveying process in a thermal power plant based on digital twin technology. The system aims to achieve comprehensive monitoring and optimization of the ash conveying process in a thermal power plant through three-dimensional modeling, real-time data acquisition, simulation, and visual display, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing energy consumption, and ensuring safe operation of equipment. In the context of the development of the thermal power industry towards intelligence, greenness, and low carbonization, digital twin technology, as an important component of new-generation information technology, is gradually applied to various aspects of industrial production to achieve real-time mapping and dynamic simulation of complex systems, thereby providing scientific basis for production management, equipment maintenance, and process optimization. Digital twin technology not only enables real-time mapping of physical systems, but also predicts and optimizes system operation through data-driven methods, providing strong support for the intelligent transformation of thermal power plants. II. BACKGROUND

[0002] The thermal power industry, as an important part of China's energy structure, involves a large number of complex equipment and systems in its production process, among which the ash conveying system is a key link in the operation of the boiler. The ash conveying system mainly includes equipment such as ash hoppers, pump rooms, pipelines, and air compressors, and its operation status directly affects the combustion efficiency and environmental emission level of the boiler. However, with the continuous expansion of the scale of thermal power plants and the continuous increase in the number of equipment, the traditional management method of the ash conveying system has been difficult to meet the needs of modern production. Currently, there are still many problems in the monitoring and management of the ash conveying process in thermal power plants, mainly in the following aspects:

[0003] In actual operation, the equipment status of the ash conveying system is often difficult to be discovered in a timely manner. The traditional ash conveying system in thermal power plants is mostly monitored by manual inspection, which is not only inefficient, but also prone to missed detection or misjudgment due to human factors, affecting the stability of equipment operation. In a high-load operation state, the ash conveying system is under great pressure, and once a fault occurs, it often takes a long time to locate and handle, resulting in production interruption and economic loss.

[0004] The ash conveying system involves multiple subsystems, such as boilers, dust removal, ash conveying, and air compression, and the data between systems is fragmented, making it difficult to form a unified data platform. This data island phenomenon limits the improvement of overall operation efficiency and makes it difficult for management personnel to comprehensively analyze and decide on the system operation status from a global perspective. In addition, the non-standardization of data acquisition and transmission also increases the risk of system operation and affects the stability and reliability of the system. In actual operation, management personnel often need to switch between multiple system interfaces to obtain complete equipment operation information, which not only increases the operation difficulty, but also reduces the work efficiency.

[0005] The monitoring method of the traditional ash conveying system is mostly in the form of text or table, which lacks intuitive graphical display and is not conducive to the quick grasp of the running state of the equipment by the management personnel. In actual operation, the management personnel often need to switch through multiple system interfaces to obtain complete equipment running information, which not only increases the operation difficulty, but also reduces the work efficiency. At the same time, the lack of three-dimensional visual display of the ash conveying process makes it difficult to intuitively present the dynamic changes of the equipment running state, affecting the real-time judgment and decision-making of the system running state.

[0006] The ash conveying system involves multiple key equipment such as ash hoppers, bin pumps, and pipelines. Once the equipment is abnormal, it often takes a long time to discover and handle. The traditional maintenance method is mostly post-maintenance, which lacks dynamic analysis of the running state of the equipment and cannot provide early warning of potential faults. This passive maintenance method not only increases the failure rate of the equipment, but also leads to high maintenance cost and production loss. Especially under high load running state, the running pressure of the ash conveying system is large, and once a fault occurs, it will often lead to the shutdown of the entire boiler system, affecting the power generation efficiency and environmental protection indicators.

[0007] Due to the lack of comprehensive understanding of the running state of the equipment, the maintenance work is passive, which increases the maintenance cost. The traditional maintenance method is mostly post-maintenance, which lacks predictive maintenance of the running state of the equipment, leading to aggravated equipment wear and tear and high maintenance cost. At the same time, the maintenance personnel often need to make judgments based on experience, which lacks scientific basis, making the maintenance work lack systematicness and standardization, affecting the overall maintenance efficiency and quality.

[0008] To solve the above problems, a digital twin system capable of realizing comprehensive monitoring, real-time visualization, intelligent analysis and optimization of the ash conveying process of a thermal power plant is urgently needed. In the prior art, although some thermal power plants have introduced three-dimensional modeling, Internet of Things, big data and other technologies, most of them are limited to the monitoring of single equipment or local scene, and have not formed a digital twin system covering the entire ash conveying process. Therefore, it is of great practical significance and application value to develop a digital twin system for the ash conveying process of a thermal power plant based on digital twin technology. III. SUMMARY

[0009] The present application provides a digital twin system for the ash conveying process of a thermal power plant, which realizes comprehensive monitoring and optimization of the ash conveying process by constructing a three-dimensional digital model of the ash conveying system and integrating real-time data acquisition, simulation, visualization and intelligent analysis functions. The system mainly includes the following core components, which together constitute a highly integrated and intelligent industrial management system.

[0010] In system design, three-dimensional modeling is the foundation of realizing digital twinning. Based on high-precision 3D modeling technology, this module constructs a three-dimensional model of the ash conveying system in thermal power plants, covering the structure and layout of key equipment such as ash hoppers, warehouse pumps, pipelines, and air compressors. During modeling, the scale, material, and lighting effects of the model must be consistent with the actual equipment to ensure that the digital twin is highly consistent with the real equipment in terms of vision. In addition, the model supports the import of multiple data formats, such as FBX, OBJ, GLT, and other common Mesh data formats, to improve the system's compatibility and scalability. Through PBR (Physical-Based Rendering) technology, the model can accurately simulate the light flow in the real world, achieving high-fidelity rendering effects, making the digital twin highly consistent with the actual equipment in terms of lighting, reflection, and material. This modeling approach not only enhances the system's visualization, but also provides high-quality three-dimensional foundations for subsequent simulation and analysis.

[0011] In data acquisition and transmission, the system installs sensors on key equipment in the ash conveying system to collect real-time data such as temperature, pressure, flow, and equipment status, and transmits them to the digital twinning platform through industrial Ethernet or wireless communication. The data acquisition module must have high precision and stability to ensure real-time and accuracy of data. To address the problem of large data volume and frequent transmission, the system uses network protocols such as Socket communication or UnityWebRequest, combined with Retrofit library and UniRx framework, to realize asynchronous data request and processing, ensuring the efficiency and stability of data transmission. In addition, the system also designs a dynamic Retrofit configuration method to support different platform data interfaces, realizing API serialization and deserialization, and improving the flexibility and maintainability of the system. Through this module, the system can obtain the running state of the ash conveying system in real time, providing reliable data support for subsequent simulation and analysis.

In addition, the system also supports model animation control systems, which read working state data to control the animation playback state of pre-defined action information, realizing dynamic display of equipment running state. This module not only improves the system's visualization, but also provides dynamic three-dimensional model support for subsequent simulation and analysis.

Through this module, users not only can see the running state of the device, but also can intuitively feel the complexity and dynamic changes of the ash conveying process through dynamic particle effects, thus improving the intuitiveness and operability of the system.

[0014] The intelligent analysis and decision-making module is the key part of the system to realize the running state prediction and optimization of the ash conveying system. This module uses big data analysis, machine learning and other technologies to analyze the collected data, predict equipment failures, optimize running parameters, and provide decision support. The intelligent analysis module needs to have good algorithm models to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the prediction. In addition, the system also supports multi-threaded data processing, combined with Linq extension operators to simplify the development process and improve the maintainability and scalability of the system. Through intelligent analysis, the system can early warning potential failures, optimize equipment running parameters, and improve the running efficiency and stability of the ash conveying system. This module not only improves the intelligent level of the system, but also provides scientific decision-making basis for management personnel.

[0015] The user interaction and control module is an important part of the system to realize user operation and system control. This module provides Web, mobile and other multi-terminal access methods, supporting real-time monitoring, operation control and fault alarm of the ash conveying system by users. The user interaction module needs to have good user experience to ensure that users can easily operate and query. In addition, the system also supports modular design, prefabricating data lists, column charts, line charts, pie charts, scatter charts and other charts, and linking data with models and virtual buttons in the scene to realize dynamic display and interaction of data. Through this module, users not only can view the running state of the device, but also can intuitively understand the running situation of the ash conveying system through the linkage of charts and models, improving the operation efficiency and user satisfaction of the system.
