[0045] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like in the description and claims of the present application, and above drawings (if there is) are used for distinguishing between similar objects, and do not necessarily have to imply a described particular order or sequence. It is to be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged, where appropriate, so that the embodiments described herein can be carried out in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein.

[0046] For the convenience of understanding, the specific flow of the embodiment of the present application is described below, please refer to Figure 1 The flow chart of the intelligent power plant power rate intelligent regulation method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the method specifically includes the following steps:
[0047] Step 101, collecting power plant equipment energy consumption data, environmental parameters, load demand data, equipment running state data and historical power rate data, aligning multi-source data by combining DTW algorithm to obtain time series data;
[0048] In this embodiment, when collecting energy consumption data from power plant equipment, the data covers core power generation equipment such as boilers, steam turbines, and generators, as well as auxiliary equipment such as circulating water pumps, induced draft fans, and feedwater pumps. Real-time data on hourly coal consumption, electricity consumption, and steam consumption are acquired through the equipment's built-in energy consumption monitoring sensors. Simultaneously, energy consumption data from environmental protection equipment such as desulfurization towers and denitrification devices are recorded. Environmental parameter collection includes real-time temperature, humidity, and air pressure within the plant area, as well as meteorological data such as outdoor wind speed and precipitation. Data is collected every 5 minutes using environmental sensors deployed at different locations within the plant to ensure that the data reflects environmental differences in different areas. Load demand data is primarily obtained through integration with the power grid dispatch system. The system generates hourly power load commands and records the deviation between the actual power generation and the load commands. Equipment operating status data is collected for key operating parameters, such as boiler outlet temperature, pressure, and water level; turbine speed, vibration value, and exhaust steam temperature; and generator voltage, current, and power factor. This data is collected every minute through the real-time monitoring module of the equipment control system. Historical electricity consumption data is extracted from the historical database of the power plant's energy management system, covering daily electricity consumption, monthly average electricity consumption, and seasonal electricity consumption changes over the past three years. This data is also linked to equipment operating records and environmental conditions for the corresponding time periods, forming a complete historical data chain.
[0049] In this embodiment, using the minute-level timestamps of the device operating status data as a reference, data with different sampling frequencies are converted into time series format, with each data point corresponding to a unique time marker; the distance between different data series is calculated, and the optimal matching path is found through dynamic programming; data with time offsets are adjusted to obtain time series data with a unified time scale.
[0050] Step 102: Use a GNN network to perform topology modeling of power plant equipment, divide the equipment into fixed load equipment and adjustable load equipment, and introduce an attention mechanism to quantify the sensitivity of power plant equipment to grid fluctuations;
[0051] In this embodiment, power plant equipment is used as nodes, and the energy transmission relationship between equipment is used as edges to construct an initial topology graph. Based on the initial topology graph, the GNN network updates the features of each node by aggregating neighbor node information, completes the modeling of equipment association relationships, and forms a complete power plant equipment topology graph. The nodes in the power plant equipment topology graph are traversed, the load characteristics of each device are analyzed, and fixed load devices and adjustable load devices are classified to obtain classification results. Among them, fixed load devices are devices with stable operating states and whose energy consumption cannot be changed by adjustment, while adjustable load devices are devices whose energy consumption changes with operating parameters.
[0052] In this embodiment, in the GNN network, the attention weights of each node to its neighboring nodes are calculated, and normalized attention weights are obtained by using the LeakyReLU activation function and Softmax normalization. The normalized attention weights are quantized into device sensitivity, and a device sensitivity matrix is generated based on the attention weights and classification results, where the rows of the matrix represent devices and the columns represent sensitivity indices.
[0053] In this embodiment, all devices involved in energy conversion or transmission, such as boilers, steam turbines, generators, circulating water pumps, and induced draft fans, are treated as individual nodes. Each node is labeled with its device name and basic attributes, such as rated power and device type. Simultaneously, edge connections are determined based on the actual energy flow relationships between the devices. For example, if a boiler transmits steam to a steam turbine, an edge is established between the boiler node and the steam turbine node; if a generator outputs electricity to the grid, an edge is established between the generator node and the grid interface node. The edge labels indicate the energy transmission type, thus forming the initial topology graph.
[0054] The GNN network first assigns an initial feature vector to each node, containing basic device attributes and real-time energy consumption data. Each node first collects the features of all neighboring nodes corresponding to all connected edges, and then combines the neighboring features with its own features through a feature fusion algorithm such as weighted averaging, with the edge weights set according to the energy transmission intensity, to generate a new node feature vector. After multiple iterations, the node features gradually contain complete information about the associated devices, ultimately forming a complete topology graph that includes the device association strength and energy interaction patterns.
[0055] During the traversal, historical load data for each node is extracted, such as hourly energy consumption records for the past 30 days and load impact data in the topology, such as energy consumption changes of the device when other devices are adjusted. The focus is on analyzing the fluctuation range and control responsiveness of the load data, calculating the maximum fluctuation amplitude and standard deviation of the historical load, and examining the energy consumption change rate of the device when adjacent adjustable devices are adjusted.
[0056] Fixed load equipment must meet two conditions: the maximum historical load fluctuation is less than 5%, and its own energy consumption change rate is less than 3% when the adjacent equipment is adjusted to the maximum amplitude; adjustable load equipment is characterized by a historical load fluctuation greater than 8%, or an energy consumption change rate exceeding 10% when the operating parameters are adjusted. Finally, the two types of equipment are classified according to the above standards and the classification results are output.
[0057] In this embodiment, the normalized attention weight obtained through the attention mechanism is directly used as a quantitative indicator of the equipment sensitivity, and the higher the weight value, the stronger the sensitivity of the equipment to the grid fluctuation. At the same time, combined with the equipment classification results output by the GNN network, such as fixed load equipment, adjustable load equipment and equipment type information such as boiler, steam turbine, circulating water pump, etc., the sensitivity indicator dimension is determined, including grid load fluctuation sensitivity, environmental parameter change sensitivity, and adjacent equipment state correlation sensitivity. An initial matrix framework is constructed with equipment as rows and sensitivity indicators as columns, and each item of attention weight corresponding to each equipment is filled into the corresponding row and column position, for example, the attention weight of the steam turbine in the grid load fluctuation dimension is 0.8, which is filled into 0.8 at the intersection of the steam turbine row and the grid load fluctuation sensitivity column. Finally, a complete equipment sensitivity matrix is generated, and each value in the matrix corresponds to the quantitative result of a specific equipment under a specific sensitivity indicator.
[0058] Step 103, input the time series data into the Transformer model, and combine the results output by the GNN network to extract features, to obtain the future 24-hour load prediction result;
[0059] In this embodiment, the time series data is input into the encoder layer of the Transformer model, and the device topology correlation information output by the GNN network is input into the self-attention mechanism module of the encoder as auxiliary features; the encoder first extracts time features based on the time series data, then distinguishes and extracts the stable features of fixed load equipment and the fluctuation features of adjustable load equipment, and generates a comprehensive feature vector that integrates time correlation, device topology correlation and load attributes through multi-layer processing; the comprehensive feature vector is input into the decoder layer of the Transformer model, and the decoder generates the load prediction value of the future 24 hours through cross-attention mechanism layer by layer, and finally outputs the complete 24-hour load prediction result.
[0060] In this embodiment, the time series data includes real-time energy consumption, environmental parameters, historical load, etc. of each equipment in the power plant, which are sorted according to minute-level timestamps, and after being input into the encoder layer, they are first converted into vector form to adapt to the model processing format; the device topology correlation information output by the GNN network includes the connection relationship between devices such as the steam transmission correlation between the boiler and the steam turbine and the correlation strength value. These information is transmitted to the self-attention mechanism module in the form of a feature matrix, providing a reference basis for the correlation between devices for the module, so that the self-attention mechanism can adjust the weight in calculation considering the actual correlation between devices;
[0061] The encoder layer first performs sliding window processing on the time series data to capture the data change law in different time segments and extract time features such as energy consumption rising during the morning peak period. Then, according to the device classification results output by the GNN network, the stable feature energy consumption data of fixed load devices such as lighting devices is extracted separately, and the fluctuation feature energy consumption of adjustable load devices such as boilers is extracted separately. After iterative processing of multiple encoder layers, each layer further fuses the features output by the previous layer with the device topology association information to finally generate a comprehensive feature vector containing time dimension rules, device association relationships, and load type attributes.
[0062] After the comprehensive feature vector is input into the decoder layer, the decoder first constructs an initial prediction framework based on the vector. The cross-attention mechanism focuses on key information related to future load in the comprehensive feature vector, such as the association between the fluctuation feature of adjustable load devices and historical load, the influence degree of certain devices on the overall load in the device topology association, etc. The decoder generates prediction values layer by layer in units of hours. After generating a load prediction value for each hour, the prediction result is incorporated into the prediction reference for the next hour. After 24 times of layer-by-layer generation, the complete load prediction result covering the next 24 hours is finally obtained.
[0063] Step 104, based on the load prediction result, a control scheme is generated by joint application of the particle swarm optimization algorithm and the DQN network.
[0064] In this embodiment, the future 24-hour load prediction result, adjustable load devices, and device sensitivity are input to initialize the particle swarm, and each particle represents a combination of control parameters. The fitness is calculated in combination with the device sensitivity.
[0065] The particles update their positions and velocities by tracking the individual optimal solution and the global optimal solution, and move towards better control parameter combinations. After 50 iterations, a set of control parameter candidates with high fitness is obtained.
[0066] The state space and action space of the DQN network are determined, and each control parameter combination in the control parameter candidate set is scored through the experience replay mechanism.
[0067] According to the scoring results, the control parameter candidate set is screened, and the control parameter combination with the highest score is selected as the final control scheme.
[0068] In this embodiment, the load prediction result, the control parameter combination in the control parameter candidate set, and the real-time operating state of the device are used as the state space. The control parameter combination in the control parameter candidate set is used as the selectable action of the action space, and the device association label is added to each action in combination with the device topology association information.
[0069] The load prediction result includes a predicted load value of each hour within the next 24 hours in a time sequence, and is included in a state space to provide a load change trend reference for regulation and control. The regulation parameter combination in the regulation parameter candidate set covers specific adjustment parameters of each adjustable device, such as a boiler combustion efficiency adjustment range, a steam turbine admission value adjustment value, and the like, which can reflect a possible regulation direction. The device real-time running state includes current key running indicators of each device, such as a real-time outlet temperature and pressure of the boiler, a rotating speed and vibration value of the steam turbine, and the like. By integrating the three aspects of information, a state space that comprehensively reflects a current regulation basis condition is formed.
[0070] Each regulation parameter combination in the regulation parameter candidate set corresponds to a selectable action in the action space, and each action is specifically directed to a specific regulation operation. Meanwhile, according to the device topology association information, a main device involved in the action and an associated device affected by the main device are determined, for example, an action of adjusting a boiler combustion efficiency, which includes a steam turbine and a steam pipeline, and the like. These association relationships are attached to the corresponding action in the form of a label, such as a boiler combustion efficiency adjustment-association steam turbine, steam pipeline, so that the action can clearly reflect a potential impact on the related devices.
[0071] In the embodiment, the future 24-hour load prediction result determines load demand in different time periods, the adjustable load device determines an object range that can be subjected to a regulation operation, and the device sensitivity reflects a response degree of each device to the regulation. When the particle swarm is initialized, a certain number of particles are generated according to the number of adjustable load devices and the allowed range of regulation parameters, and each particle includes specific regulation parameters of each adjustable load device, such as a boiler combustion efficiency adjustment of 3% and a steam turbine admission value adjustment of 2%. When the fitness is calculated, the device sensitivity is mainly referred to, and a higher weight is given to a device with high sensitivity. When the regulation parameter combination can make the deviation between the load prediction result and the target load smaller, the fitness is higher.
[0072] The individual optimal solution is a regulation parameter combination with the highest fitness in the history of each particle itself, and the global optimal solution is a regulation parameter combination with the highest fitness in all particles. The particles adjust the moving direction and speed according to the two optimal solutions. If the fitness of the current particle is lower than the individual optimal solution, the parameters are adjusted in the direction of the individual optimal solution. If the individual optimal solution is lower than the global optimal solution, the parameters are further optimized in the direction of the global optimal solution. After 50 iterations, the particles with low fitness are eliminated, and the particles with high fitness are retained, and finally the regulation parameter candidate set is formed.
[0073] The state space of the DQN network contains the future 24-hour load prediction result, the combination of the regulation parameters in the candidate set of regulation parameters, and the real-time running state of the device, and the action space takes the combination of the regulation parameters in the candidate set of regulation parameters as the selectable action; the experience replay mechanism calls historical regulation data, which records the implementation effects of different combinations of regulation parameters in a similar load scenario in the past; each combination of regulation parameters in the candidate set is compared with the historical data, and the regulation effect of the same or similar combination in the history is referred to, such as whether it can effectively make the load reach the target value, and each combination is scored;
[0074] During the screening process, the combination of regulation parameters with a higher score is preferentially retained as the main basis; if there are multiple combinations with the same or similar scores, the combination with less impact on the associated devices is selected by combining the device topology association information and considering the impact of the regulation operation on the associated devices; finally, the combination of regulation parameters with the highest score and reasonable impact on the associated devices is determined as the final regulation scheme.
[0075] Step 105, convert the regulation scheme into regulation instructions, issue the regulation instructions, and collect the data after regulation for real-time feedback.
[0076] In this embodiment, when converting the regulation scheme into regulation instructions, first analyze the core regulation parameters in the scheme, such as the boiler combustion efficiency adjustment value, the steam turbine admission flow adjustment value, etc., convert these parameters into standardized instructions recognizable by the device according to the format specified by the power plant device control protocol, set exclusive instruction codes for different types of devices, such as the code "GL-XX" for the boiler and the code "QLJ-XX" for the steam turbine, and clearly specify the specific time, adjustment range and target parameter value of the instruction execution, such as GL-01, 10:05 execution, 3% increase in combustion efficiency, target value 92%. Subsequently, issue the regulation instructions through the industrial control network inside the power plant, determine the issuance sequence according to the device topology association relationship, such as issuing the boiler instructions first and then issuing the steam turbine instructions, with an interval of 30 seconds to avoid fluctuations caused by synchronous adjustment of associated devices, and monitor the transmission state in real time during the instruction issuance process, and if transmission interruption occurs, immediately start the standby transmission channel to resend. At the same time, after the execution of the instructions, the real-time running data of the corresponding device is collected through the sensors and data collection terminals of the device, such as the adjusted boiler combustion efficiency, steam turbine admission flow, and overall power consumption rate data, and these data are sorted by timestamp and transmitted to the central control system to form a real-time feedback data stream.
