[0002] With the large-scale grid connection of intermittent new energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaics to the distribution network and main grid, the power of transformers in some areas has long exhibited a "bidirectional, pulsating" characteristic, resulting in a "heavy load-overload-reverse transmission" cycle.

[0003] To ensure equipment safety in scenarios with a high proportion of renewable energy, domestic and international research is accelerating on electromagnetic transient modeling of main transformers, assessment of multi-field coupling losses, and construction of test platforms. However, the focus is mainly on simulation and offline evaluation; on-site automated testing and evaluation for "frequent power flow switching-overload" conditions remains lacking. Provincial grid companies have included "reliability assessment and improvement of transformers with frequent power flow switching" in their science and technology project requirements, demonstrating the industry's urgent need for automated testing tools.

[0004] Current transformer life loss assessments mainly rely on empirical formulas or single physical models, which suffer from insufficient accuracy, poor adaptability, and weak real-time performance, making it difficult to cope with the complex overload-unloading cycles caused by new energy sources.

[0173] The generated test report file is named with a unique identifier and uploaded to the designated power equipment health management platform or assessment system through a secure channel for subsequent scheduling, operation and maintenance or risk warning.

[0174] After successful upload, record the report generation time, upload time, and platform return status, and archive a local copy to complete the entire closed loop.

[0175] Specifically, the process of step 100 in this embodiment is as follows:

[0176] This embodiment extracts historical active power curves of wind power and photovoltaic power for a target area for at least one year from the scheduling database, with a fixed sampling time interval, such as five minutes. To ensure data integrity, missing data segments in the curves are filled using linear interpolation. Then, each wind power and photovoltaic curve is normalized based on its respective historical maximum value, bringing all data to between zero and one. After normalization, this embodiment fits a Weibull probability distribution to the wind speed data samples and a log-normal distribution to the solar irradiance samples. To reflect the correlation between wind power and photovoltaic fluctuations, this embodiment uses the Gaussian Copula method to construct a joint probability density distribution. The aforementioned "joint probability density" refers to a joint distribution that preserves the correlation between the two variables by mapping the independent distributions of wind speed and solar irradiance to a unified normal space and then inversely transforming them back to the original space, serving as the statistical basis for subsequent random disturbance generation.

[0177] This embodiment generates "synthetic renewable energy output" by superimposing random disturbances based on normalized historical output. The specific process includes: First, the amplitude of the random disturbance is referenced to the standard deviation in the joint probability density function, reflecting the historical correlation fluctuation range. Second, a random disturbance amplification factor is added, typically chosen between 0.05 and 0.20, empirically selected based on the historical data change rate to balance sequence repeatability and volatility. Furthermore, pseudo-randomness is introduced through the inverse operation of the normal distribution quantile function; the required disturbance sequence is generated from uniformly distributed pseudo-random numbers between zero and one. The synthetic renewable energy output is also superimposed with a typical 24-hour load cycle through an adjustable amplitude modulation factor, with the modulation factor ranging from zero to 0.30, to match the daily variation characteristics of the actual electricity load. Finally, the synthetic renewable energy output value is divided by the measured transformer rated capacity to obtain the normalized load ratio. This normalized load ratio serves as the basis for subsequent operating condition classification.

[0178] This embodiment classifies each sampling point into different load conditions based on the numerical range of the normalized load ratio: when the normalized load ratio meets the following conditions... Classified as a normal load segment, For heavy load sections, For overload section, This is the reverse power flow section. To reduce the impact of data jitter on the stability of operating condition discrimination, this embodiment also performs a three-point moving average processing on the operating condition discrimination results. That is, the operating condition label at each time point is determined by averaging the discrimination results of that point and the sampling points before and after it, which can effectively suppress misjudgments caused by single-point data fluctuations. The operating condition labels after the above moving average form a complete test sequence including multiple operating scenarios such as normal, heavy load, overload, and reverse power flow. The test sequence can be directly used as program instruction output to control the inverter or energy storage device to perform quantitative and timed automatic loading on the transformer under test, realizing high-fidelity simulation testing of overload conditions.

[0179] Specifically, the process of step 200 in this embodiment is as follows:

[0180] In this embodiment, the AC output terminal of the programmable inverter-energy storage device is electrically connected to the low-voltage bus of the transformer under test via an isolation transformer, and the parameter configuration and functional debugging of the communication interface are completed. Subsequently, according to the aforementioned generated test sequence, the target power value and its duration at each moment are sent to the control module of the inverter device in the form of a "time-target power pair". At the same time, during the sending process, parameters such as the number of times the test sequence needs to be executed repeatedly, the ratio of each overload segment to the rated capacity, and the operating time range of a single load segment are set synchronously. The "programmable inverter-energy storage device" is a power electronic device that can flexibly output power according to the command and realize bidirectional energy flow, and has both inverter function and energy storage regulation. The "test sequence" is a power command set formed by relying on the historical output of new energy sources and integrating probabilistic disturbance mechanisms. It includes load segments such as normal load, heavy load, overload, and reverse power flow, and each item is the target power demand at a specific time point.

[0181] Furthermore, "number of cycles" refers to the number of rounds in which the entire test sequence is repeated completely, "overload ratio" refers to the rate of increase in the rated capacity of the transformer by different sections, and "single section duration" is the duration of maintenance for each typical load section. During loading, the inverter needs to automatically adjust the actual output power according to the target power value corresponding to the current time point, and continuously monitor the deviation between the actual output and the target value. When the deviation exceeds the allowable loading error range, which is generally set as a percentage of the rated power, such as ±3 to ±5 percentage points, the system will automatically alarm and suspend output if the limit is exceeded. Before the power level switching of the test sequence, the control module will enter the prediction time window in advance, dynamically calculate the rate of power change based on the upcoming target power change and the prediction time window duration, and gradually adjust the output power linearly according to this rate to achieve a smooth transition between sections and prevent electrical shocks caused by sudden power changes. Throughout the entire process, physical quantities such as primary side current, voltage, and active power of the transformer under test are collected and monitored in real time. If the current exceeds the preset safety limit, the voltage is outside the high and low limits, or an abnormal DC bias is detected inside the inverter (i.e., the iron core may be magnetically saturated due to the DC component), the control system automatically pauses loading and immediately records all test data during the period of triggering the abnormality for subsequent analysis. The power deviation alarm threshold is a preset limit, such as 10% of the rated capacity. The total loading test duration is determined by multiplying the duration of a single sequence by the number of cycles.

[0182] In this embodiment, the power level switching points in the load test sequence are preferably defined as the transition times between the normal and heavy load segments, the heavy load and overload segments, and the overload and reverse power flow segments, serving as key nodes for flexible transition control. Specifically, this embodiment automatically sets the starting trigger point for the power slope smoothing adjustment algorithm at the time points when the power level of the test sequence changes—that is, when switching from the normal load segment to the heavy load segment, from the heavy load segment to the overload segment, and from the overload segment to the reverse power flow segment. Within a preset prediction time window before these power level switching points arrive, the control module obtains the power targets for the current and target segments in advance, calculates the power change amplitude and time window length, and thus dynamically determines the rate of change during each power switching process. In actual control, the inverter-energy storage device continuously and uniformly adjusts the power output according to this rate of change, achieving a linear and smooth transition of the power value from the current level to the target level, avoiding mechanical or electrical shocks to the transformer caused by large or sudden adjustments. All switching processes and related parameters can be recorded in the control system log, enabling traceable and controllable management of the power switching process. The "prediction time window" is used to schedule power output adjustments in advance. The duration is generally set to a few seconds to tens of seconds, and can be set in real time according to the transformer's operating characteristics and on-site requirements to ensure smooth and reliable switching.

[0183] Optionally, this embodiment employs a synchronous phasor measurement unit to collect all core operating parameters of the transformer under test, achieving high timeliness and accuracy in obtaining transformer measurement values. Specifically, during the operation of the transformer under test, voltage and current sampling circuits are connected to both the primary and secondary sides. A standard time reference is established using a synchronous sampling clock, and all electrical signal data are synchronized at the millisecond level to achieve time alignment of data on both sides, obtaining accurate active and reactive power and phasor information. Simultaneously, multiple temperature sensors are installed in thermally sensitive areas such as the top of the transformer tank, the middle and lower parts of the windings, to record and continuously transmit data on the changes in top oil temperature, winding hot spot temperature, etc., over time, for dynamically assessing the thermal stress distribution of the transformer. Based on this, an online oil gas monitoring device is used to periodically or in real-time extract operating oil samples to analyze changes in the content of typical dissolved gases such as acetylene, hydrogen, and methane. The concentration and trends of these gas components can reflect potential fault states such as transformer thermal aging and partial discharge. All the electrical parameters, temperature data, and gas content information mentioned above are collected using a unified sampling clock and data communication protocol, and are archived synchronously with a consistent timestamp. They are then compiled in a unified manner in the form of "transformer measurement values" for transformer status assessment and anomaly early warning, enabling high-precision diagnosis of operating conditions and health status in a comprehensive and dynamic way.

[0184] Specifically, in this embodiment, the collected transformer measurements are divided into several discrete time periods of equal length, for example, each time period is one minute. Within each discrete time period, key data parameters such as top oil temperature and load current are compiled. The aforementioned "equal-length discrete time periods" refer to dividing the continuously sampled measurement data during operation into segments based on fixed-length time intervals, allowing data within each interval to be processed independently, ensuring the consistency of timeliness and accuracy of analysis for temperature, load, and other curves.

[0185] Within each defined discrete time period, this embodiment utilizes a coupled thermal model to calculate the winding hot spot temperature. The coupled thermal model is a calculation model that combines the electrical, thermodynamic, and material aging characteristics of the transformer. It can extrapolate the winding hot spot temperature within that time period based on real-time top oil temperature, load current, rated current, and transformer design parameters. The top oil temperature is obtained in real-time through a temperature sensor; the real-time load current is also directly collected by the online monitoring unit; the rated current and hot spot temperature rise under rated load are respectively the transformer nameplate parameters and design factory parameters, typically defined in the manufacturer's technical documentation. The "load index" is an empirical constant, commonly valued at 0.8, reflecting the nonlinear effect of load changes on heating.

[0186] Based on the winding hot spot temperature calculated for each time period, this embodiment further calls the lifetime model to evaluate the insulation aging rate for that time period and obtain the required lifetime loss factor. The lifetime model calculates the ratio of the actual aging rate of the insulation material to the reference rate using empirical lifetime acceleration theories (such as Arrhenius reaction rate theory) based on the difference between the hot spot temperature and the reference temperature, and uses this as the lifetime loss factor. The "lifetime acceleration coefficient" can be selected based on the chemical properties of the material and is usually an empirically determined value; the "reference temperature" is a widely used reference point for insulation lifetime conversion in the industry, generally based on 98 degrees Celsius; the aforementioned lifetime loss factor is specifically used to measure the rate of insulation lifetime consumption at a specific temperature level. A value greater than one indicates accelerated loss, while a value less than one indicates slowed aging.

[0187] Finally, the lifetime loss factors obtained from all equal-length discrete time periods are cumulatively accumulated one by one, that is, the lifetime loss is accumulated chronologically to obtain the real-time lifetime loss curve for the entire test process. Each factor usually needs to be multiplied by the duration of the corresponding time period (e.g., hours) to obtain the absolute loss value. When the accumulated result reaches or exceeds the preset lifetime loss threshold, this embodiment will trigger an overload stop judgment mechanism to actively stop the load and prevent excessive aging or damage to the transformer insulation material. The rolling accumulation process can intuitively reflect the lifetime loss trend of the transformer under test throughout the entire cycle, providing an accurate decision-making basis for equipment operation and maintenance and protection.

[0188] Specifically, the process of step 500 in this embodiment is as follows:

[0189] In this embodiment, during the cyclic loading process, the transformer's life loss factor and winding hot spot temperature are continuously monitored in real time, and these two core parameters are compared with their respective preset thresholds. When the life loss factor reaches or exceeds the life loss threshold, or the winding hot spot temperature reaches or exceeds the hot spot temperature threshold, the cyclic loading is immediately stopped. The aforementioned "life loss factor" is an indicator reflecting the insulation aging process, calculated using a life model based on data such as the aging rate of the transformer insulation material and the hot spot temperature. Its threshold is generally set according to the maximum allowable cumulative life loss of the transformer insulation material, typically selected as approximately 1% of the transformer's design life as the protection trigger point. The "hot spot temperature threshold" is set according to the national standards for transformers or the manufacturer's limit requirements, with common reference values ​​such as 140 degrees Celsius. Upon reaching any of the above thresholds, this embodiment immediately issues a shutdown command to the programmable inverter-energy storage device, causing it to actively disconnect from the electrical connection with the low-voltage side of the transformer and simultaneously stop issuing subsequent power commands. At the same time, the current operating status, the reason for the stop, and the measured data are fully recorded in the system log, and an automatic alarm can be issued if desired, so that relevant personnel can follow up and handle the situation promptly and conduct subsequent analysis. By following the above steps, the safety of the loading process and the reliability of the equipment operation are ensured, and equipment damage or failure caused by overload or excessive insulation aging is prevented.

[0190] Specifically, the process of step 600 in this embodiment is as follows:

[0191] At the end of each loading cycle, this embodiment employs an online data acquisition and processing mechanism to first read the actual hotspot temperature and cumulative lifetime loss factor during the current test cycle in real time. The aforementioned "hotspot temperature" refers to the temperature value of the hottest location of the transformer winding, calculated in real time using a coupled thermal model. This temperature comprehensively considers the influence of multiple factors such as load, electrical parameters, and ambient temperature. The "lifetime loss factor" is an insulation aging acceleration index accumulated through the lifetime model, reflecting the total lifetime loss of the transformer under the current test load. Both are stored synchronously in the test sequence.

[0192] After each cycle, this embodiment performs an error assessment on the actual hot spot temperature and the preset target temperature rise. The target temperature rise is the ideal hot spot temperature increase value specified in the transformer operation design, and the allowable error is the maximum allowable fluctuation range in engineering (e.g., ±5 degrees Celsius). If the absolute deviation between the actual hot spot temperature and the target temperature rise exceeds the above-mentioned allowable error, or the cumulative life loss factor has exceeded the preset life loss threshold (this threshold is obtained from the insulation material and safe life assessment), then the test sequence parameter correction process is initiated; otherwise, it is determined that all parameters in the current cycle meet expectations, the test sequence parameters for this round remain unchanged, and the next routine loading is initiated.

[0193] When adjustments are needed, this embodiment adjusts the target power and duration of the next cycle according to a preset adaptive adjustment rule based on the winding hotspot temperature, target temperature rise, cumulative life loss factor, and corresponding life loss threshold. The adjustment strategy is as follows: when the hotspot temperature is greater than the target temperature rise, or the life loss factor is close to or exceeds the threshold, the target power for the next cycle is moderately reduced, and the duration is correspondingly shortened; conversely, if the hotspot temperature is lower than the target temperature rise and the life loss factor is lower than the threshold, the target power can be moderately increased, and the duration appropriately extended. The specific adjustment range of the target power and duration is determined by combining the set step parameters with historical correction experience to gradually converge the hotspot temperature to the target value while avoiding exceeding the life loss limit.

[0194] The corrected target power and duration will be inserted into the corresponding positions in the test sequence, becoming the new parameters for the next round of execution. In subsequent loading, the system continues to automatically load according to the corrected parameters, continuously collecting data, making judgments, and making corrections to form a closed-loop optimization. This process is iterated repeatedly until the deviation between the hot spot temperature and the target temperature rise in two consecutive rounds does not exceed the allowable error, and the cumulative life loss factor is within the life loss threshold range. At this point, this embodiment determines that the test sequence parameters have converged, terminates the correction process, and proceeds to the next stage of performance analysis and evaluation, ensuring that the transformer's operational safety and test effectiveness are fully guaranteed.

[0195] Specifically, step 700 in this embodiment includes:

[0196] In this embodiment, after the entire testing process is completed, the load data, hotspot temperature records, lifespan loss factors, and their corresponding time stamp information acquired during the testing period are first automatically classified and summarized. The classification process includes splitting and archiving all raw measurement data according to load level, time sequence, and operating condition stage, and calculating the mean, peak value, and abnormal fluctuation range for different load segments to facilitate subsequent trend analysis and report output. All data processing processes use a unified time base to achieve accurate alignment between various measurement data and events.

[0197] After completing the data classification and summarization, this embodiment automatically plots the temperature rise trend curves, life loss curves, and hot spot temperature distribution maps of the transformer under various load levels based on the processed data. The curve plotting steps include segmenting and fitting the temperature rise and loss of each load segment according to the time-series data, and automatically identifying abnormal points or abrupt changes using statistical detection methods, which are then clearly highlighted or marked in the graph. All the above graphs use a standardized coordinate system, which facilitates a visual display of the transformer's thermal stress, loss process, and potential anomalies under different operating conditions, improving the scientific nature and traceability of subsequent maintenance decisions.

[0198] Finally, in this embodiment, according to a pre-set standard report template, the test number, test scenario description, key parameter changes, abnormal triggering conditions, and evaluation conclusions are embedded into an automatically generated overload capacity and life loss report file, and saved with a unique identifier. The report is automatically uploaded to the designated power equipment health management platform or evaluation system via an encrypted secure channel (such as HTTPS or VPN). After the upload is completed, the system synchronously records the report generation time, upload time, and the status or feedback information returned by the platform, and retains a copy of the original report on a local dedicated storage medium, realizing a closed-loop management system for the entire process of test data and analysis conclusions, ensuring security and traceability.
