Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method and system for calculating the aerodynamic coefficients of a heliostat by integrating geometric modal characteristics, belonging to the field of heliostat simulation technology. Background Technology
[0002] In existing technologies, methods for calculating the aerodynamic coefficients of heliostats mainly fall into two categories:
[0003] First, wind tunnel testing is used for calculation. In order to obtain accurate heliostat aerodynamic coefficients, a 1:1 scale heliostat model needs to be built, which is extremely costly. Moreover, the entire cycle from model building to test completion takes 3 to 6 months, which seriously limits the rapid evaluation and optimization of different design schemes.
[0004] Second, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulations are used, but even with the simplest turbulence model k-ωSST, a single simulation on an NVIDIA V100 GPU still takes 8 to 12 hours. The long simulation process makes it difficult to respond quickly to design changes and operating conditions in actual engineering, and cannot meet the real-time requirements.
[0005] Furthermore, most existing methods for predicting the aerodynamic coefficients of heliostats only consider a single type of data and do not take into account the mutual influence and interaction between multimodal variables. This results in a large deviation between the predicted aerodynamic coefficients and the actual situation, making it difficult to accurately reflect the aerodynamic characteristics of heliostats in complex environments.
[0006] The information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background of the inventive concept, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention
[0007] To address the aforementioned problems, or one of them, the present invention aims to provide a method and system for calculating the aerodynamic coefficients of a heliostat by integrating geometric modal features. This method fully considers the mutual influence and interaction between multimodal variables of the heliostat. By mining the interaction relationships between the modal features of the heliostat, modal coupling data is obtained. A graph convolution operation is introduced to represent the modal coupling data as a graph structure, and message propagation is performed on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features, forming graph embedding representation information. This graph embedding representation information is then aggregated and mapped to obtain the predicted aerodynamic coefficients of the heliostat. This allows for accurate prediction of the aerodynamic coefficients of the heliostat, thus enabling effective modeling of the multiphysics interactions of the heliostat and accurately reflecting its aerodynamic characteristics in complex environments. The predicted aerodynamic coefficients are close to reality. Furthermore, simulation calculations using this algorithm model effectively reduce modeling costs and shorten simulation time, facilitating rapid evaluation and optimization of heliostats with different design schemes and meeting real-time requirements.
[0008] To address the aforementioned problems or one of them, the second objective of this invention is to provide a method and system for calculating the aerodynamic coefficient of a heliostat by integrating geometric modal features. By integrating the geometric and physical modal features of the heliostat, the heliostat is modeled, enabling accurate and efficient prediction of the heliostat's aerodynamic coefficient. This provides a reliable basis for the stable operation and optimized design of tower solar thermal power plants, effectively solving the problems of low accuracy, poor real-time performance, and inability to effectively utilize multimodal data in existing heliostat aerodynamic coefficient prediction models.

[0013] Step 3: Introduce graph convolution operations to represent modal coupling data as a graph structure, and perform message propagation on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features and form graph embedding representation information;
[0014] Step four involves aggregating and mapping the graph embedding representation information to obtain the predicted heliostat aerodynamic coefficients, thus realizing the calculation of heliostat aerodynamic coefficients by fusing geometric modal features.
[0015] This invention fully considers the mutual influence and interaction among the multimodal variables of a heliostat. By mining the interaction relationships between the modal features of the heliostat, modal coupling data is obtained. Graph convolution operation is introduced to represent the modal coupling data as a graph structure, and message propagation is performed on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features, forming graph embedding representation information. The graph embedding representation information is then aggregated and mapped to obtain the predicted aerodynamic coefficients of the heliostat, thus enabling accurate prediction of the aerodynamic coefficients. Therefore, it can effectively model the multiphysics interaction of the heliostat, accurately reflect the aerodynamic characteristics of the heliostat in complex environments, and make the predicted aerodynamic coefficients close to the actual situation. Furthermore, simulation calculations using this algorithm model can effectively reduce modeling costs and shorten simulation time, facilitating rapid evaluation and optimization of heliostats with different design schemes, meeting real-time requirements. The solution is scientific, reasonable, and feasible.
[0016] Furthermore, this invention integrates the geometric and physical modal characteristics of heliostats to model them, enabling accurate and efficient prediction of heliostat aerodynamic coefficients. This provides a reliable basis for the stable operation and optimized design of tower solar thermal power plants, effectively solving the problems of low accuracy, poor real-time performance, and inability to effectively utilize multimodal data in existing heliostat aerodynamic coefficient prediction models.
[0017] Furthermore, this invention has good versatility and is applicable to heliostats of different structural forms (such as single-piece, spliced, curved mirrors, etc.) and different wind field environmental conditions (such as various wind speeds, wind directions, turbulence intensities, etc.), significantly improving the adaptability and practicality of the model in actual engineering.

Nodes represent fusion feature units, and edges represent physical dependencies, spatial connections, or structural similarities between feature units.
[0059] Based on the node feature vectors of neighboring nodes, construct the adjacency matrix;
[0060] In graph convolutional networks, the message propagation mechanism controlled by the adjacency matrix enables the layer-by-layer updating of node feature vectors, allowing node feature vectors to interact with local modal features and incorporate topological information from the global physical field.
[0061] As a preferred technical measure:
[0062] Step four involves aggregating and mapping the graph embedding representation information to obtain the predicted heliostat aerodynamic coefficients, as follows:

[0064] Based on the coefficient calculation formula, multiple hidden layers are established;
[0065] The graph embedding representation information is input into multiple hidden layers for multi-layer computation to obtain the final node features;
[0066] The final features of the nodes are aggregated and weighted, and then input into the regression function for calculation to obtain the predicted heliostat aerodynamic coefficients; the heliostat aerodynamic coefficients include drag coefficients and pressure coefficients.

By mining the interaction relationships between the modal features of the heliostat, modal coupling data is obtained. Graph convolution operation is introduced to represent the modal coupling data as a graph structure, and message propagation is performed on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features, forming graph embedding representation information. The graph embedding representation information is then aggregated and mapped to obtain the predicted aerodynamic coefficients of the heliostat, thus enabling accurate prediction of the aerodynamic coefficients. Therefore, it can effectively model the multiphysics interaction of the heliostat, accurately reflect the aerodynamic characteristics of the heliostat in complex environments, and make the predicted aerodynamic coefficients close to the actual situation.

[0096] A method for calculating the aerodynamic coefficients of a heliostat by incorporating geometric modal characteristics, comprising the following:
[0097] Using a pre-built multi-source data processing model, the geometric and atmospheric data of the heliostat are processed to generate multiple modal features;
[0098] Based on a pre-built feature capture model, the interaction relationships between modal features are mined to obtain modal coupling data;
[0099] Based on the pre-built feature propagation model, graph convolution operation is introduced to represent modal coupling data as a graph structure, and message passing is performed on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features and form graph embedding representation information;
[0100] By using a pre-built aerodynamic simulation model, the graph embedding representation information is aggregated and mapped to obtain the predicted heliostat aerodynamic coefficients, thus realizing the calculation of heliostat aerodynamic coefficients by fusing geometric modal features.
[0101] A third specific embodiment of the heliostat aerodynamic coefficient calculation method integrating geometric modal characteristics of the present invention:
[0102] A method for calculating the aerodynamic coefficients of a heliostat by incorporating geometric modal characteristics includes the following steps:
[0103] Step 1. Fuse the multi-source data from the heliostat to obtain multiple modal features, including the following:
[0104] A fused feature vector is obtained by processing and extracting features from multi-source data from a heliostat. This multi-source data includes 3D point cloud data, air density data, and heliostat elevation angle data. The 3D point cloud data is processed to extract its geometric features; the air density data is normalized; and the heliostat elevation angle data is identified and encoded. The processed modal features are then fused to form a fused feature vector containing rich information, providing comprehensive and crucial input data for subsequent aerodynamic coefficient prediction.
[0105] Step 2. Mine the interaction relationships between modal features to obtain modal coupling data; then introduce graph convolution operation to represent the modal coupling data as a graph structure, and perform message propagation on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features and form graph embedding representation information.
[0106] In this embodiment, the method for mining the interaction relationships between modal features to obtain modal coupling data is as follows:
[0107] A deep cross-attention network is constructed to achieve mutual attention between different modalities at multiple levels. This network iterates multiple times, calculating attention scores between features of different modalities and assigning dynamically changing weights to each feature.
[0108] A deep cross-attention network is constructed based on the cross-attention mechanism to more deeply explore the interaction relationships between different modalities of data. Let the input multimodal features be as follows: Each of them The data representing the i-th modal feature (e.g., point cloud, air density, elevation angle, etc.) consists of M modalities, each containing There are positions (or nodes), each position being... 3D eigenvectors.
[0109] First, a linear transformation is performed on each modal feature to obtain the query matrix, key matrix, and value matrix. For the first... Modal features Its query matrix Key matrix Value matrix ,in , The weight matrix is a learnable matrix. For the attention dimension.
[0110] The learnable weight matrix in this embodiment , All features were automatically optimized during the training phase of a deep cross-attention network, with the training objective being to minimize the designed physical constraint loss function. This training process fully considers the modal differences and physical consistency constraints of the input features, ensuring that the fused features retain physical interpretability while possessing strong fitting and generalization abilities.
[0111] Then, the attention scores between different modal features are calculated, for modal feature i and modal feature i. Attention score The calculation formula is as follows:
[0112]
[0113] in, It is the dimension of the key vector. For activation function, Modal features The query matrix, Modal features The bond matrix.
[0114] Modal features refer to data types or information sources with different physical meanings, such as 3D point cloud data, air density, heliostat elevation angle, and structural parameters. These modal features, due to differences in acquisition methods, physical dimensions, and semantic interpretations, need to be modeled and fused separately in the model; therefore, they are collectively referred to as multimodal data. A key matrix is a matrix formed by combining all key vectors row-wise. The dimension of the key vectors... The feature dimension of each key vector is determined by the feature length of each feature point after linear mapping. In this embodiment... The value is set to 64. Experiments have shown that 64 is more suitable for fine-grained matching and attention calculation between point clouds and physical quantities.
[0115] Activation function The expression for row-wise calculation is as follows:
[0116]
[0117] in, The output value of the i-th node, where C is the number of output nodes, i.e., the number of categories; and e is the natural constant. The output value of the c-th node.
[0118] Then, the value matrix of modality feature j is weighted and summed according to the attention weights to obtain the fused feature of modality feature i, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0119]
[0120] in, Modal features Each location feature is the result of a weighted fusion of all location features of modality feature j.
[0121] In deep cross-attention networks, multi-layer attention computation is performed. Let the first... Layer modal features The fusion characteristics are Then the first The query, key, and value matrices of the layer are further generated based on the fused features of the previous layer, and their calculation formula is as follows:
[0122]
[0123] Similarly defined and By continuously iterating and updating attention scores and fusion features, deep interactions between modalities can be achieved at multiple semantic levels, thereby improving the ability to model complex physical coupling relationships.
[0124] In this embodiment, graph convolution operations are introduced to represent modal coupling data as a graph structure, and message propagation is performed on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features. The method for forming graph embedding representation information is as follows:
[0125] Data from different modalities is represented as a graph structure, with nodes representing features and edges representing relationships between features. Graph convolution operations are introduced to perform message passing and feature aggregation on the graph. By updating the feature representations of nodes through a graph convolutional network, the influence of multiphysics on the heliostat's aerodynamic coefficients can be effectively captured, enhancing the ability to model physical relationships between modalities.
[0126] Representing data of different modalities as a graph structure ,in A set of nodes represents the features of multimodal data; Let be the set of edges, which represents the relationships between features.
[0127] In this embodiment, the node set V represents the observation points on the surface of the heliostat. Each node contains the geometric modal features (such as coordinates, normal vector, curvature, etc.) and physical modal features (such as local velocity, pressure, etc.) of its corresponding position. After fusion, they form a node feature vector. The edge set E represents the adjacency relationship between nodes (such as Euclidean distance, flow field correlation), which is used for information propagation and aggregation in the subsequent graph neural network.
[0128] In this invention, the relationships between features are modeled by constructing edges in a graph structure. The relationships between features include geometric adjacency relationships, feature similarity relationships, and physical prior relationships.
[0129] Geometric adjacency relationships include the following:
[0130] Based on the location of point clouds or structural elements in space, the K-nearest neighbor algorithm is used to establish edges between nodes, reflecting local physical interactions.
[0131] Feature similarity relationships include the following:
[0132] Calculate the cosine similarity of modal features between nodes, establish connections between nodes with high similarity, and capture the coupling characteristics of nodes that are far apart but have similar behaviors.
[0133] Physical a priori relations include the following:
[0134] By combining computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation data or structural connection relationships, physical dependencies such as airflow paths and heat transfer pathways are defined to enhance the physical interpretability of the graph structure.
[0135] Ultimately, the three relationships are fused to construct a graph structure G=(V,E), providing basic topological support for graph neural networks and enabling deep intermodal fusion and physical information propagation.
[0136] Further, graph convolution operations are introduced for nodes. The feature update is performed using the following formula:
[0137]
[0138] in: For nodes The set of neighboring nodes; , They are nodes The degree of v; For the first The learnable weight matrix of the layer; For example, activation functions (such as ReLU); The updated features are those derived from integrating neighbor information; For neighbor information.
[0139] In this embodiment, the nodes in the graph structure represent spatial observation points on the surface of the heliostat. Their feature vectors consist of the features of that point in multiple modalities, including geometric features (such as coordinates, normal vectors, and curvature) and physical features (such as local wind speed, air pressure, and density). These modal features are transformed linearly to obtain the query matrix, key matrix, and value matrix required by the attention network, and then cross-fused and propagated through graph convolution in the graph structure.
[0140] Furthermore, by performing multiple graph convolution operations and incorporating information from neighboring nodes, the feature representations of nodes are continuously updated, further enhancing the ability to model the physical relationships between modalities and enabling the propagation of local modal features to the global model. Simultaneously, deep cross-attention networks and graph convolutional networks are integrated to model the interaction relationships and structural associations between multimodal features. Specifically, the following steps are included:
[0141] First, a deep cross-attention network is used to perform layer-by-layer cross-attention on the original modal features (such as point clouds, air density, heliostat elevation angle, etc.) to generate a multimodal fusion feature representation F. The corresponding attention mechanism is as follows:
[0142]
[0143] After obtaining the fused modal features F, this embodiment further uses them as input nodes of a graph neural network to construct a graph structure G=(V,E), where node V represents the fused feature unit and edge E represents the physical dependency, spatial connection or structural similarity between feature units.
[0144] In Graph Convolutional Networks (GNNs), the message propagation mechanism controlled by the adjacency matrix is used to update node features layer by layer. The update formula is as follows:
[0145]
[0146] This update mechanism ensures that the fused features, based on local modal interactions, further incorporate the topological information of the global physical field, thereby improving the model's prediction accuracy and physical consistency for heliostat aerodynamic coefficients.
[0147] Step 3. Train and optimize the model network, which includes the following:
[0148] The physical constraint loss function is defined as follows:
[0149]
[0150]
[0151] Where L represents the final loss value used for training optimization. and The weighting coefficients and + =1, satisfying the normalization constraint, MSE( ) and MSE ( , where are the mean square errors of the drag coefficient and pressure coefficient, respectively, and η and γ are penalty coefficients. These are determined through hyperparameter grid search. =0.6, =0.4, η=0.5, γ=0.3, guiding the model network to learn features that conform to physical laws; This represents the predicted value of the drag coefficient corresponding to the i-th sample or prediction point; This represents the predicted pressure coefficient value corresponding to the i-th sample or prediction point.
[0152] In this framework, a deep cross-attention network is first used to extract global interaction features between different physical modalities. Then, a graph structure is constructed between these modal features, and local dependencies and topological associations are further modeled through graph convolution. Finally, the aerodynamic coefficient prediction results are output, and a physical constraint loss function is used as the optimization objective to guide the entire model to maintain physical consistency while fitting labeled data. These three components, through variable dependencies and backpropagation mechanisms, constitute a joint learning system that can be trained end-to-end.
[0153] The true values (benchmark values) of the drag and pressure coefficients are provided by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation data as monitoring signals. The mean squared error (MSE) between the predicted values output by the model and these true labels is incorporated into the physical constraint loss function to ensure that the constructed model not only fits well at the data level but also meets basic physical consistency requirements.
[0154] Step 4. Make predictions using the trained model network, which includes the following:
[0155] A fully connected neural network is used as the drag coefficient prediction head, with the fused feature vector as input. The network contains multiple hidden layers. The calculation formula for each layer is as follows:
[0156]
[0157] in, It is a weight matrix. σ is the bias vector, and σ is the activation function.
[0158] After multiple calculations, the predicted drag coefficient is output. .
[0159] bias vector The specific value is automatically learned during model training, and the learning process is as follows:

[0191] A system for calculating the aerodynamic coefficients of a heliostat that integrates geometric modal features includes a multi-source data processing module, a feature capture module, a feature propagation module, and an aerodynamic simulation module.
[0192] The multi-source data processing module is used to process the geometric and atmospheric data of the heliostat to generate multiple modal features;
[0193] The feature capture module is used to mine the interaction relationships between modal features to obtain modal coupling data;
[0194] The feature propagation module is used to introduce graph convolution operations, represent modal coupling data as a graph structure, and perform message passing on the graph structure to characterize the dependencies between modal features and form graph embedding representation information;

[0196] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a specific embodiment of the present invention is used to calculate the aerodynamic coefficient of a heliostat in a tower solar thermal power plant:
[0197] The heliostat aerodynamic coefficient calculation method based on the fusion of geometric modal features of this invention is used to calculate the aerodynamic coefficient of a heliostat in a tower solar thermal power plant, which includes the following:
[0198] An energy company plans to construct a large-scale tower solar thermal power plant. Heliostats, as the core equipment of the plant, directly affect the plant's efficiency and stability due to their aerodynamic performance. Traditional wind tunnel experiments and CFD numerical simulations are costly and time-consuming, failing to meet the project's need for rapid evaluation and optimization of heliostat design. Therefore, the energy company decided to adopt the heliostat aerodynamic coefficient calculation method based on the integration of geometric modal characteristics, as described in this invention, to predict the heliostat's aerodynamic coefficients. This method includes the following:
[0199] Step 1: First, collect multi-source data, which includes the following:
[0200] A high-precision laser scanner was used to scan heliostats with different design schemes to obtain three-dimensional geometric information of the heliostats and obtain three-dimensional point cloud data.
[0201] Meteorological monitoring equipment was installed in the power plant site area to collect air density data in real time. At the same time, historical meteorological data was combined to construct an air density dataset.
[0202] The heliostat's control system records its elevation angle information at different times, thus obtaining the heliostat's elevation angle data.
[0203] The collected data is then preprocessed, including the following:
[0204] The 3D point cloud data obtained from the scan is denoised, filtered, and feature-extracted to extract the geometric features of the heliostat, such as area and shape. The collected air density data is then normalized, mapping the data to the [0,1] interval to eliminate the influence of dimensions. Finally, the heliostat elevation angle data is identified and encoded, converting the angle information into numerical features to obtain the encoded data of the heliostat elevation angle.
[0205] Step 2, building and training the model, includes the following:
[0206] The first step is to fuse the processed 3D point cloud features, air density features, and heliostat elevation angle features to form a fused feature vector (multiple modal features) containing rich information, which is then used as the input to the model.
[0207] The second step involves constructing a deep cross-attention network to process the input multimodal fusion features, specifically including the following:
[0208] First, a linear transformation is performed on the features of each modality to obtain the query matrix, key matrix, and value matrix. Then, attention scores between different modalities are calculated. The value matrices are then weighted and summed using these attention scores to obtain the fused features (interaction features). In the deep cross-attention network, multiple layers of attention calculation are performed, and the attention scores and fused features are continuously updated iteratively to more accurately capture the potential connections between modalities.
[0209] Further network enhancement is achieved using graph convolution, representing data from different modalities as a graph structure, where nodes represent features and edges represent relationships between features. Graph convolution operations are introduced to perform message passing and feature aggregation on the graph. Through multiple graph convolution operations, the feature representations of nodes are continuously updated, enhancing the ability to model the physical relationships between modalities.
[0210] Step 3: Design the physical constraint loss function to optimize the model. The expression for the physical constraint loss function is as follows:
[0211]
[0212] in =0.6, =0.4, η=0.5, γ=0.3.
[0213] The model is trained using collected multi-source data, and the optimal model parameters are determined through hyperparameter grid search to guide the model to learn features that conform to physical laws.
[0214] Step 4: Use the trained model to predict the drag and pressure coefficients of heliostats with different design schemes. Input the fused feature vectors into the drag coefficient prediction head and the pressure coefficient prediction head, and output the predicted drag coefficients respectively. and pressure coefficient .
[0215] Based on the predicted drag and pressure coefficients, heliostats of different designs (heliostats of different shapes) are evaluated and optimized. The design with the optimal aerodynamic performance is selected. and We will manufacture and install the smallest possible heliostat design to improve the efficiency and stability of the power plant.
[0216] Step 5: Compare the predicted drag coefficient and pressure coefficient with the actual measured values, and calculate evaluation indicators such as mean square error (MSE) and mean absolute error (MAE) to assess the model's prediction accuracy. The results show that the prediction accuracy of the model in this invention is significantly higher than that of traditional prediction methods.
[0217] Experiments have shown that, compared with traditional wind tunnel testing and CFD numerical simulation methods, the method of this invention significantly reduces costs and time. Wind tunnel testing requires constructing a 1:1 scale heliostat model, which is extremely costly and takes 3-6 months; while the method of this invention can predict the aerodynamic coefficients of the heliostat in a short time, providing strong support for the rapid advancement of projects. The above application examples demonstrate that the method of this invention has achieved significant results in the design optimization of heliostats in tower solar thermal power plants, providing crucial technical support for the construction and operation of the power plant.
