[0002] With the rapid development of smart grids, transformer digital twin technology has become an important management tool. Through digital twin technology, maintenance personnel can monitor the operating status of transformers in real time in a virtual environment and predict potential fault risks. A key characteristic of digital twin models is that the digital twin of the transformer in the virtual space remains synchronized with its physical counterpart. When the state of the physical transformer changes, its digital twin should change accordingly. However, a universal update method is lacking. Existing technologies for constructing and updating 3D digital twin models still suffer from the following problems: poor data timeliness: existing models have low update frequencies, and due to the large amount of multi-source heterogeneous data generated during transformer operation, efficient real-time fusion is difficult, resulting in an inability to reflect transformer state changes in real time; fixed update mechanism: existing models often use a fixed update frequency, directly affecting the model's accuracy and real-time performance.

[0063] Specifically, the preprocessing method for the transformer structure dataset can be any existing data preprocessing method. The preprocessing process can sequentially include data cleaning, data denoising, outlier removal, and data format conversion to ensure the integrity and accuracy of data collection. This facilitates the construction of an initial digital twin model of the transformer based on a transformer structure dataset with the same data format. The choice of preprocessing method here is merely illustrative. In actual testing, those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs, as long as the preprocessed transformer structure dataset meets the data requirements for constructing the initial digital twin model of the transformer.

[0068] Collect real-time transformer operating data, wherein the operating data includes at least the transformer's operating current, operating voltage, operating temperature, and operating vibration parameters;

[0069] The real-time environmental data of the load connected to the transformer, the internal components of the transformer, and the real-time operating data of the transformer are preprocessed to obtain preprocessed environmental data and operating data.

[0070] Based on the preprocessed environmental and operational data, a multi-source real-time dataset is selectively constructed using the preprocessed environmental and operational data.

[0071] Specifically, the preprocessing method for preprocessing the real-time load connected to the transformer, the environmental data of the transformer's internal components, and the real-time operating data of the transformer is the same as the preprocessing method for preprocessing the transformer's structural dataset.

[0072] Specifically, the selective formation of a multi-source real-time dataset based on preprocessed environmental and operational data includes:

[0073] Based on the preprocessed environmental data and operational data, determine whether at least one preset key data is missing from the preprocessed environmental data and operational data:

[0074] If the determination is yes, then re-collect environmental data and operational data, and execute subsequent steps;

[0075] If the determination is negative, then the preprocessed environmental data and operational data are used to form a multi-source real-time dataset.

[0076] Specifically, the preset key data of the at least one may include data of any parameter of any one or more loads or components, or any data of the transformer. The setting of the preset key data of the at least one is only an illustrative example. In actual testing, those skilled in the art can set it according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0077] In the above embodiments, in response to the transformer's update command or initial update command, relevant data of the transformer is collected, and the collected data is preprocessed to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the data. After preprocessing, a multi-source real-time dataset is formed, realizing the time synchronization processing of data from different sources, so as to provide reliable input for subsequent dynamic updates of the model.

[0078] Step S104: Substitute the multi-source real-time dataset and the initial digital twin model of the transformer into the model update module to generate a visualized dynamically updated digital twin model of the transformer and an update adjustment scheme corresponding to the transformer. The update adjustment scheme includes at least the update frequency and abnormal adjustment standard parameters.

[0079] In some embodiments, before incorporating the multi-source real-time dataset and the initial digital twin model of the transformer into the model update module, the method further includes:

[0091] The dynamically updated digital twin model of the transformer is visualized to obtain a visualized digital twin model of the transformer.

[0092] Based on multi-source real-time datasets, update and adjustment schemes and generation times are generated in real time.

[0093] Based on the latest generated update and adjustment scheme, the update and adjustment scheme corresponding to the transformer is selectively updated to obtain the latest update and adjustment scheme corresponding to the transformer, so as to ensure that the update and adjustment scheme matches the transformer.

[0094] In some embodiments, adjusting the initial digital twin model of the transformer based on a multi-source real-time dataset to obtain an initial digital twin model of the transformer with multiple adjustment tags includes:

[0095] Feature extraction is performed on multi-source real-time datasets to obtain feature data values ​​of various extracted features;

[0096] Based on the feature data values ​​of the extracted multiple features, the initial digital twin model of the transformer is adjusted and marked to obtain an initial digital twin model of the transformer with multiple adjustment marks.

[0097] Specifically, the types of the multiple features can be preset key data, or any data among temperature change trends and vibration parameters, or multiple features that affect the update and adjustment scheme selected by a trained intelligent machine model. The selection of the types of multiple features and the selection method here are only illustrative examples. In actual testing, those skilled in the art can select according to actual needs, as long as the feature data values ​​of the extracted multiple features can affect the update and adjustment scheme. Further details are not provided here.

[0099] The predicted state of the transformer is obtained by making predictions based on multi-source real-time datasets;

[0100] Simulation calculations were performed based on multi-source real-time datasets and a pre-set finite element analysis module to obtain simulation results of the transformer.

[0101] Based on the simulation results of the transformer, multi-source real-time datasets, and the predicted state of the transformer, the initial digital twin model of the transformer with multiple adjustment markers is dynamically updated to obtain the dynamically updated digital twin model of the transformer.

[0102] Specifically, the simulation calculation technology used by the preset finite element analysis module is the same as that used in the existing finite element analysis module.

[0106] Simulations were performed on the latest generated update and adjustment scheme and the currently executed update and adjustment scheme, respectively, to obtain simulation data for the latest generated update and adjustment scheme and the currently executed update and adjustment scheme.

[0107] Based on the simulation data of the latest generated update and adjustment scheme and the currently executed update and adjustment scheme, the evaluation scores of the latest generated update and adjustment scheme and the currently executed update and adjustment scheme are obtained respectively.

[0108] If the latest generated update adjustment scheme is consistent with the currently executed update adjustment scheme, or if the evaluation score of the latest generated update adjustment scheme is consistent with the currently executed update adjustment scheme, or if the evaluation score of the currently executed update adjustment scheme is higher than the evaluation score of the latest generated update adjustment scheme, then the update adjustment scheme corresponding to the transformer will not be updated.

[0109] If the evaluation score of the newly generated update and adjustment plan is higher than the evaluation score of the currently executed update and adjustment plan, then the newly generated update and adjustment plan will be updated based on the newly generated update and adjustment plan.

[0110] Specifically, the evaluation scores of the newly generated update and adjustment scheme and the currently executed update and adjustment scheme are obtained using the same formula, as follows:

[0111]

[0112] Where S represents the evaluation score, n represents the total number of performance indicators, and the performance indicators can be voltage stability, current efficiency, power factor, temperature distribution uniformity, and ω. i This represents the weight corresponding to the i-th performance metric, where the sum of the weights of all performance metrics is 1. f(X i () represents the contribution of performance indicators to the overall evaluation score.

[0113] Among them, the contribution of performance indicators to the overall evaluation score f(X) i It is obtained through the following formula:

[0114]

[0115] Where p, q, and r represent three preset parameter values, where p takes the value of [-1, 1], q takes the value of (0, 1], and r takes the value of [-1, 1].

[0116] In some embodiments, the dynamic updating of the initial digital twin model of the transformer with multiple adjustment markers based on the transformer simulation calculation results, multi-source real-time datasets, and the predicted state of the transformer, to obtain the dynamically updated digital twin model of the transformer, includes:

[0117] Based on the predicted state of the transformer and multiple adjustment markers in the initial digital twin model of the transformer, multiple dynamically updated adjustment directions and adjustment parameters for each adjustment direction are determined.

[0118] Based on the simulation results of the transformer and the multi-source real-time dataset, the dynamically updated multiple adjustment directions and the adjustment parameters of each adjustment direction are fused and adjusted to obtain the fused adjustment multiple adjustment directions and the adjustment parameters of each adjustment direction.

[0119] Based on the multiple adjustment directions after fusion and the adjustment parameters of each adjustment direction, the initial digital twin model of the transformer with multiple adjustment marks is dynamically updated to obtain the dynamically updated digital twin model of the transformer.

[0120] In some embodiments, the real-time generation of the update and adjustment scheme based on multi-source real-time datasets and the generation time include:

[0121] An initial update frequency is generated based on multi-source real-time datasets and the predicted state of the transformer.

[0122] Based on multi-source real-time datasets and transformer simulation results, the initial update frequency is adjusted to obtain the final update frequency.

[0123] Based on the predicted state of the transformer, multi-source real-time datasets, and transformer simulation results, the standard parameters for abnormal adjustment are determined.

[0124] An update and adjustment scheme is constructed using the ultimate update frequency and abnormal adjustment standard parameters, and the generation time of the update and adjustment scheme is recorded.

[0125] Specifically, the specific generation method for generating the update and adjustment scheme and the specific update method for dynamically updating the initial digital twin model of the transformer with multiple adjustment marks can be obtained using a trained neural network model or an intelligent learning model. The selection of the specific generation and update methods here is only an example. In actual testing, those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs, as long as it can realize the real-time generation of the update and adjustment scheme and the generation time based on the multi-source real-time dataset, and the dynamic update of the initial digital twin model of the transformer with multiple adjustment marks based on the transformer simulation calculation results, the multi-source real-time dataset, and the predicted state of the transformer, to obtain the dynamically updated digital twin model of the transformer, it is acceptable. Further details are omitted here.

[0126] In the above embodiments, during module processing, the initial digital twin model of the transformer is adjusted and marked with multiple adjustment tags using a multi-source real-time dataset. This facilitates targeted adjustments and dynamic updates to the initial digital twin model. Then, prediction and simulation are performed using the multi-source real-time dataset to dynamically update the initial digital twin model, resulting in a dynamically updated digital twin model. Temperature data from the multi-source real-time dataset is used to update the temperature distribution of the tank and windings, while vibration data is used to display the operational stability of the equipment. Finally, visualization is used to intuitively reflect the transformer's state changes, achieving a dynamic visualization effect. Then, by using multi-source real-time datasets, update and adjustment schemes and their generation times are generated in real time, and the latest update and adjustment scheme corresponding to the transformer is selectively updated to ensure that the update and adjustment scheme matches the transformer. This achieves automatic adjustment according to the transformer's operating conditions to improve update efficiency, and also achieves adaptive adjustment of the update frequency of the digital twin model. For high load or fault warning states, the update frequency is increased to ensure the timeliness of the model; and under normal operating conditions, the update frequency is automatically reduced to reduce resource consumption, thereby improving the responsiveness under different transformer operating conditions and ensuring the efficiency and stability of model updates.

[0127] Step S105: When it is determined that the model meets the update conditions, based on the update adjustment scheme, dynamically update the current digital twin model of the transformer. Specifically, the dynamic update of the current digital twin model of the transformer based on the update adjustment scheme includes:

[0128] Based on the aforementioned update and adjustment scheme, multiple issuance times for the update command of the transformer are determined;

[0129] When multiple times when an update command for any transformer is issued are reached, an update command is issued to the transformer to facilitate the collection of multi-source real-time datasets.

[0130] Specifically, if, in response to the update command of the transformer, a multi-source real-time dataset is collected, the method further includes:

[0131] If any data in the multi-source real-time dataset reaches the abnormal adjustment standard parameter in the update and adjustment scheme, then the "collect multi-source real-time dataset" and subsequent steps will be executed again.

[0132] Otherwise, proceed to the next step of "collecting multi-source real-time datasets".

[0133] Specifically, the abnormal adjustment standard parameter in the update and adjustment scheme can be a data threshold for any data or a quantity value for any data, so as to realize automatic detection of data anomalies and ensure that when data loss or data mutation occurs during data transmission, the anomaly can be automatically repaired, thereby ensuring the continuity and reliability of the update.

[0134] Specifically, the method further includes:

[0135] When multiple real-time datasets from multiple sources are acquired, and any data in any of the acquired datasets meets the abnormal adjustment standard parameters in the update and adjustment scheme, and the multiple acquisitions reach a preset repetition threshold, the transformer is determined to be in an abnormal state. An alarm command is then automatically issued, and the multiple real-time datasets from multiple sources are sent to the management terminal to provide timely early warning information to the maintenance personnel at the management terminal. This enables the detection of abnormal transformer states through real-time data, automatic alarm triggering, and improved timely response and maintenance of transformer anomalies, thereby achieving intelligent monitoring of the transformer.

[0136] Preferably, the method further includes: determining whether the model meets the update conditions by verifying whether the sensing data of the perception layer is consistent with the key node data of the digital twin of the virtual layer. Here, the key nodes are the positions of each sensor, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the sensing data. If so, the update conditions are not met and the model remains unchanged; otherwise, the update conditions are met and the target parameters that need to be updated are determined based on the update adjustment scheme.

[0137] A geometric model describes the shape and size of a physical object using geometric parameters (length, width, diameter, etc.). Since a transformer is a static device, its static geometric model is determined by the design documents and typically remains unchanged. The dynamic geometric model is updated using an event-driven model update strategy, meaning that an update is triggered when events such as transformer maintenance, return to factory, or bushing replacement occur. Preferably, in another embodiment, the specific physical model update strategy is as follows: Figure 3 As shown:

[0138] ① Determine the update parameters. Based on the differences between the sensor data and the digital twin model, determine the strongly correlated parameters to be updated.

[0139] ② Construct the objective function: Based on the determined update parameters, construct the objective function to make the output of the digital twin model as close as possible to reality.

[0140] ③ Design optimization algorithms: Design corresponding optimization algorithms (Gauss-Newton equations, nonlinear least squares method, etc.) to find the optimal solution.

[0141] ④ Process sensor data: Based on the determined parameters to be updated and the constructed objective function, determine which sensor data should be collected and preprocess the sensor data (cleaning, noise reduction, integration, etc.).

[0142] ⑤ Evaluate model error by comparing the updated digital twin model output with the sensor data to determine if the model meets the requirements. If it does, update the model; otherwise, return to the design optimization algorithm.

[0143] The physical model update strategy is illustrated using the sound field as an example. The sound field model update method is as follows: Figure 4 As shown:

[0144] ① Using finite element simulation, the transformer core and windings are treated as equivalent sound sources. The fluid-structure interaction of vibration in oil is considered, and a propagation model of vibration in oil is established. Combined with the sound field boundary conditions, the three-dimensional sound field distribution of the transformer is calculated.

[0145] ② The sound-vibration signals of the transformer are collected by using vibration sensors installed on the surface of the transformer tank and acoustic microphones outside the tank, and preprocessed by filtering, noise reduction and normalization.

[0146] ③ When there is a difference between the simulation calculation results and the measured signal, the three-dimensional sound field distribution is determined as the parameter to be updated.

[0147] ④ To minimize the error in calculating the sound field, construct the objective function:

[0148]

[0149] Where θ represents the parameters to be optimized in the model, and p sim and p meas The simulated and measured sound pressure levels are respectively, r i It is a spatial vector.

[0150] ⑤ The objective function is optimized by combining Bayesian optimization and Gaussian process regression.

[0151] ⑥ Mean square error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE) are selected as indicators to evaluate the calculation error of the model.

[0152]

[0153] ⑦ When the model calculation error meets the requirements, the optimized sound field distribution replaces the original data to update the sound field distribution of the digital twin model.

[0154] According to the embodiments of this disclosure, the following technical effects are achieved:

[0155] By acquiring the structural dataset of the transformer, an initial digital twin model of the transformer is constructed, enabling comprehensive acquisition of relevant transformer information for accurate initial digital twin model construction. The collected multi-source real-time dataset and the initial digital twin model are then fed into the model update module to generate a visualized, dynamically updated digital twin model of the transformer, along with a corresponding update and adjustment scheme. This provides an intuitive reflection of the transformer's state changes, achieving a dynamic visualization effect. The digital twin model of the transformer can reflect its actual operating status in real time, thus better supporting equipment management and decision-making. Furthermore, through the update and adjustment scheme corresponding to the transformer, the update frequency of the transformer is adaptively adjusted for different operating conditions. Based on this update and adjustment scheme, the current digital twin model of the transformer is dynamically updated, ensuring the timeliness of the digital twin model while reducing long-term resource occupation. This improves the management efficiency of transformers and other power equipment, reduces failure rates, and promotes the intelligent and digital development of the power system.
