[0094] Step three: fuse gas pressure, temperature, vibration and acoustic emission signals, use acoustic wave propagation inversion, dynamic crack identification and multi-scale analysis methods to preliminarily locate and analyze the evolution trend of internal defects of the accumulator;

[0095] The process of fusing gas pressure, temperature, vibration and acoustic emission signals and performing acoustic wave propagation inversion analysis in step three includes:

[0096] Obtain the preprocessed gas pressure data, temperature data, vibration data and acoustic emission signals, and perform feature extraction on them, the feature extraction process is as follows:

[0097] Extract the mean, variance, and average absolute value of the difference between adjacent time points from the gas pressure data;

[0098] Extract the maximum value, minimum value, standard deviation and temperature change rate from the temperature data;

[0099] Extract the peak value, effective value, peak-to-peak value, kurtosis, main frequency and its amplitude from the vibration data;

[0100] Extract the pulse count, impact number, amplitude maximum value, main frequency and its energy distribution from the acoustic emission signal;

[0101] Normalize and weight the extracted features into a comprehensive feature vector F, the weight coefficients are obtained by historical data training, which is expressed as: F=[f1,f2,…fn ] T where f i represents the i-th feature component in the comprehensive feature vector, n represents the feature dimension, and F represents the overall physical characteristics of the current system state;

[0102] The physical property parameters or structural information inside the material are calculated according to the boundary measured acoustic wave signals by the acoustic wave propagation inversion method;

[0103] In the isotropic linear elastic medium, the acoustic wave satisfies the three-dimensional second-order wave equation, which is expressed as follows: ;

[0104] Where u(x,t) represents the displacement field of the acoustic wave at position x and time t, c is the wave velocity in the medium, and ▽ 2 is the Laplace operator;

[0105] When the acoustic source position and medium parameters are known, the finite difference method is used to solve the wave equation to obtain the theoretical wave field u(x,t);

[0106] The objective of inversion is to optimize the medium parameter m(x) by minimizing the difference between the observed wave field u gc (x i ,t) and the calculated wave field u(x i ,t; m), and the comprehensive feature vector F is used to set the value range of the medium parameter m(x) in the wave equation solving process as the initial constraint condition of inversion;

[0107] The objective function is expressed as follows:

[0108] Where J(m) is the objective function, representing the energy difference between the observation and the calculated wave field, m(x) is the medium parameter distribution, N is the number of sensors, and T is the total observation time;

[0109] The adjoint field λ(x,t) is introduced, and the gradient of the objective function with respect to the medium parameter is calculated by the adjoint state equation:

[0110] ;

[0111] Using the gradient, the L-BFGS algorithm is used to iteratively update the medium parameter m until convergence;

[0112] The process of using the dynamic crack identification and multi-scale analysis method in step three includes:

[0113] Dynamic crack propagation causes the stiffness of the material to decrease, which is manifested as a decrease in modal frequency and an increase in damping ratio of the structure, and the crack position can be identified by combining the local energy density change, and the structural dynamics equation is expressed as follows:

[0114] where M is the mass matrix, C is the damping matrix, K(t) is the stiffness matrix which varies with crack propagation, f(t) is the external excitation, u(t) is the displacement vector, are the first and second time derivatives of displacement;

[0115] When the integrated eigenvector F numerically mutates or deviates from the historical mean value beyond a set threshold, it is determined that the system is in an abnormal operating state, triggering the dynamic crack identification module to start. This vector does not participate in the calculation of modal frequency or damping ratio, and only serves as a trigger condition for crack identification.

[0116] The Hilbert-Huang transform is used to process the response signal, and the instantaneous frequency f n (t) and the damping ratio ζ n (t) are extracted:

[0117] where m n is the nth order mass coefficient, c n is the nth order damping coefficient, and k n (t) is the nth order stiffness coefficient;

[0118] Crack development causes the stiffness coefficient k n (t) to decrease, resulting in a decrease in modal frequency and an increase in damping ratio;

[0119] The local energy density function is introduced:

[0120] where is the displacement velocity vector;

[0121] The energy concentration degree increases during crack propagation, and the crack position is determined by combining the change in wave propagation path;

[0122] Discrete wavelet transform is used to decompose the signal into three levels, and the Daubechies db4 wavelet basis function is selected to extract structural features at macro and micro scales. The micro variable is defined, where ε is a small parameter much smaller than 1, and the field quantity u has a multi-scale expansion form:

[0123] u(x, t) = u0(x, ξ, t) + εu1(x, ξ, t) + ε 2 u2(x, ξ, t) + …;

[0124] Substitute the expansion into the control equation and separate the variables according to ε, and solve step by step;

[0125] The wavelet basis function ψ j,k (x) is used for multi-scale decomposition of the signal:

[0126] where j controls the scale, k controls the translation, c j,k are wavelet coefficients, reflecting local features at different scales;

[0127] The comprehensive feature vector F reflects the trend of the overall state of the system. During the wavelet decomposition process, the analysis weight at different scales is set according to the change of the feature vector. For example, when the feature vector shows that the high-frequency energy is enhanced, the wavelet coefficients in the high-frequency band are preferentially analyzed.

[0128] The process of preliminary positioning and evolution trend analysis of internal defects of the accumulator in step three includes:

[0129] The defects (such as cavitation, fatigue cracks or corrosion points) in the accumulator can be analyzed for their spatio-temporal evolution characteristics through multi-source data fusion.

[0130] The internal reflectivity distribution r(x) of the accumulator is reconstructed using inversion:

[0131] where G(x s ,x,t) is the Green's function from the sound source position x s to point x, G(x,x r ,t) is the Green's function from point x to the receiver position x r , s(t) is the received echo signal, and r(x) is the reflectivity distribution representing the defect intensity.

[0132] The measured echo s(t) is used to calculate the r(x) distribution through inversion to determine the defect location.

[0133] The defect parameter D(t) is defined to represent the damage factor, and its evolution is defined to conform to the exponential growth model:

[0134] D(t)=D0e θt , where D0 is the initial defect degree and θ is the growth coefficient, which is obtained by fitting the experiment. In practical applications, the value of θ is affected by the current working condition, and it can be obtained through linear mapping of the comprehensive feature vector.

[0135] When the defect parameter D(t) reaches or exceeds the set threshold D sd , it is determined that the defect is in a dangerous state, and repair or replacement measures need to be taken.

[0136] An example of defect positioning based on the content of step three is given:

[0137] Consider a scenario where an accumulator is used in a wind turbine system to store and release energy to balance the demand of the power grid; due to long-term high pressure and frequent temperature changes, the accumulator is prone to internal defects such as fatigue cracks or corrosion points; in order to ensure the safe operation of the system, it is necessary to regularly monitor the health of the accumulator;

[0138] First, install multiple acoustic sensors on the outside of the accumulator to collect acoustic signals on the boundary; at the same time, use built-in pressure, temperature and vibration sensors to obtain real-time data;

[0139] After preprocessing the collected data, feature extraction is performed according to the method described in step three, and these features are fused into a comprehensive feature vector F;

[0140] According to the known sound source position and medium parameters (such as wave speed c), the finite difference method is used to solve the wave equation;

[0141] Using the difference between the observed wave field and the calculated wave field, the medium parameters m(x) are optimized through the target function minimization process, and the L-BFGS algorithm is used for iterative update until convergence;

[0142] Finally, according to the reconstructed internal reflectance distribution r(x) of the accumulator, the location of potential defects is determined;

[0143] When the comprehensive feature vector F is detected to have a sudden change, start the dynamic crack identification module to analyze the changes in frequency, mode and energy characteristics;

[0144] Use wavelet decomposition method to analyze the structural characteristics at different scales to determine the specific location and development trend of the crack;

[0145] After the above steps, the positioning results of the internal defects of the accumulator and the defect parameter D(t) curve with time are obtained, and Table 1 shows some key moments of defect parameter values and their corresponding dangerous state judgments:

[0146] Table 1 Defect parameter conditions

[0147]

[0148] Among them, the set dangerous threshold is 0.08, from the table we can see that at the 100th day, the defect parameter D(t) of the accumulator exceeds the set dangerous threshold, indicating that immediate repair or replacement measures need to be taken to avoid accidents;

[0149] By fusing multi-source heterogeneous signals such as gas pressure, temperature, vibration and acoustic emission, key features are extracted and a comprehensive feature vector is constructed, and the internal structure characteristics of the diaphragm accumulator are reconstructed by combining the acoustic wave propagation inversion method; the dynamic crack identification model is used to analyze the changes of modal frequency, damping ratio and energy distribution, and the crack propagation behavior is identified; at the same time, the multi-scale wavelet analysis method is introduced to enhance the sensitivity to defect features of different scales and improve the defect positioning accuracy and evolution trend prediction ability; the whole process is based on the combination of physical model and data driving, has strong robustness and engineering applicability, and can effectively support equipment health state evaluation and intelligent maintenance decision.

[0151] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , step four: based on the state monitoring data, a high-dimensional graph is constructed to depict the nonlinear correlation between defect modes, and an evolutionary algorithm is used to optimize the model parameters to realize defect identification and evolution path analysis;

[0152] The process of constructing a high-dimensional graph based on state monitoring data and depicting the nonlinear correlation between defect modes in step four includes:

[0153] The preprocessed state monitoring data is obtained and is formed into a time series state vector:
