DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0016] Embodiment one: Figure 1 The flowchart of the online drying process real-time monitoring and analysis method provided by the first embodiment of the present application, the present embodiment can be applied to the tobacco drying system, the method can be executed by the online drying process real-time monitoring and analysis system based on the Internet of Things provided by the present application, the system is composed of multiple software and hardware modules, as shown in Figure 1 The method specifically comprises the following steps: S101, collecting and processing the data information of the tobacco production drying; Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present application, the tobacco production redrying section process parameter information is collected according to the set frequency, and data processing of corresponding screening, elimination and missing value interpolation is performed; in this step, the collected parameter data includes: the set temperature in the cut tobacco cylinder, the tobacco cut moisture content when leaving the machine, the tobacco cut moisture content when being packed, the tobacco cut volume when being packed, the dust remover valve opening and the pressure in the cut tobacco cylinder, and since the collected data has the characteristics of invalidity, missing and abnormality, the incomplete and inconsistent dirty data collected needs to be screened, eliminated and missing value interpolated, wherein the missing value is filled by using the "median interpolation", so that the data filled by the median value can better fit the nearby data, the error is small, and since there are drum type cut tobacco machines, belts and other equipment in the tobacco sheet redrying section, the collected data contains noise, the data to be processed is further divided into a cluster according to the attribute, the values falling outside the cluster are regarded as noise or isolated points, and these abnormal data are directly deleted, so that the accuracy and efficiency of subsequent analysis and processing are effectively improved.

[0017] S102, fault monitoring model construction and data output management are performed; Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present application, the set fault signs are expressed as nodes by the Bayesian network fault diagnosis, and the tobacco production drying redrying equipment fault monitoring model is established; since there are many elements in the drying process, the most common element is various sensors, which run through the entire drying process, and with the increase of the material in the drying process, the change of temperature causes the change of various sensor values, the devices containing sensors are connected in sequence, and the change of the sensor at the previous stage will affect the sensor at the next stage, that is, the measurement result at the next stage does not necessarily truly reflect the actually collected data, the sensor may be affected by external interference, resulting in measurement error, it may also be that the sensor itself is faulty, and it may also be that the measurement error is caused by misoperation, and the fault position can be located according to the sensor error, therefore, through this step, the fault signs are expressed as nodes by the Bayesian network fault diagnosis, and the tobacco production drying redrying equipment fault monitoring model is established, when abnormal signs appear, the subsequent fault reason and the possibility of fault occurrence are inferred according to the causal relationship and probability distribution between the nodes, so that the fault monitoring of the tobacco production drying redrying equipment is more efficient and accurate, the error is effectively reduced, and the tobacco drying efficiency is improved.

[0018] After the fault monitoring model is constructed, the collected data is substituted into the model, the posterior probability distribution of other tobacco production drying redrying equipment data values is obtained according to the sensor temperature value variable, and the output processing is performed.

[0019] S103, tobacco drying operation optimization design processing is performed; Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present application, the cascade control is adopted to optimize the control of the tobacco drying system, so that the system comprises a set number of controllers, and the output of an inner loop controller is input as a set value of an outer loop controller; since the cascade control has good anti-interference ability and is easy to operate, it is used in processes with large time delay, strong interference and large load variation, so that the control performance can be effectively improved, the interference can be reduced, and the operation of the tobacco drying system is more stable when strong disturbance and large load variation exist in the controlled process.

[0020] After the optimization of the cascade control is completed, the set point tracker is controlled and managed by the integral of squared error criterion to achieve the set performance data; since overshoot often occurs in the double closed loop control, which easily causes serious oscillation of the system, the set point tracker is controlled and managed by the integral of squared error criterion through this processing, so that the overshoot condition can be eliminated or reduced, and the system operation is more smooth and stable.

[0021] The process mathematical model controller constructed by the Smith prediction compensation control is used to analyze and control manage the drying system; since the process mathematical model controller constructed based on the Smith prediction compensation control has the advantages of simple structure, no need for accurate mathematical model, easy online tuning, etc., it is suitable for processes with large time delay and strong interference, and can effectively improve the anti-interference ability and tracking performance, so that the analysis of the stability of the drying system can be simplified, the calculation can be reduced, the efficiency of the overall design of the control system can be improved, the dynamic response speed is adjustable, the robust stability is good, and the influence of unmeasurable disturbance can be effectively eliminated.

[0022] S104, tobacco drying data transmission and storage control is performed; Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present application, after receiving the data information of the tobacco drying monitoring collected and processed, the data information is transmitted to the management personnel, so that the management personnel can judge the running state of the tobacco drying system according to the data information; The received data information of the tobacco drying monitoring is backed up and stored in the blockchain node, so that the data information tampering and loss condition can be effectively avoided.
