Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of flywheel testing technology, and in particular to a testing method and system for magnetic levitation flywheel energy storage devices. Background Technology

[0002] With its advantages of high power density and long cycle life, magnetic levitation flywheel energy storage equipment has become a core energy storage device in fields such as aerospace satellite attitude control and power grid frequency regulation and peak shaving. Its health status directly determines the system's operational safety and energy storage efficiency, which places stringent requirements on the accuracy, foresight, and reliability of testing technology.

[0003] Existing methods for detecting magnetic levitation flywheels have several key drawbacks:

[0004] First, the sensing accuracy is insufficient. Traditional strain gauges and Hall sensors can only achieve millimeter-level stress detection and millitalas-level magnetic field measurement, and cannot capture the precursor signals of micron-level stress concentration, micro-magnetic distortion, crack initiation, and early failure of magnetic bearings.

[0005] Second, the internal defect detection blind zone: vibration sensors can only monitor surface vibrations and are unable to identify deep defects such as microcracks and delamination inside composite rotors.

[0006] Third, the life prediction capability is weak, and there is a lack of fault evolution simulation combined with physical models. It can only provide passive alarms and cannot quantify the remaining life in advance.

[0007] Fourth, the diagnostic model has poor generalization ability, single device fault samples are scarce, training models are difficult to cover faults in multiple scenarios, and cross-device data sharing poses a risk of privacy leakage.

[0008] Fifth, the lack of a closed-loop control system and the disconnect between detection results and the control system make it impossible to proactively intervene based on the health status, leaving only passive shutdowns, which severely reduces equipment utilization and energy storage continuity.

[0009] The aforementioned shortcomings make it difficult for existing testing methods to meet the requirements of high-reliability scenarios, and are prone to problems such as sudden equipment failure, shortened lifespan, and energy storage interruption.

By monitoring minute changes in the propagation characteristics of elastic waves (phonons) within the material, it detects microscopic damage inaccessible to traditional methods, such as interlaminar debonding in composite materials, microcrack initiation, and material fatigue.

[0091] More specifically, an acoustic metasurface waveguide (a phononic crystal structure composed of periodically arranged tungsten steel cylinders) is embedded in the prefabricated interlayer channel inside the flywheel composite rotor. The waveguide is arranged radially along the rotor and covers the core stress area of ​​the rotor.

[0099] Next, proceed to step S120.

[0100] In step S120, a digital twin model of the flywheel is constructed based on the flywheel data, and the remaining service life of the flywheel is predicted using the digital twin model.

[0101] The digital flywheel digital twin model assesses risks in advance through fault simulation, avoiding the dangers of physical testing, and quantifies the differences between virtual and real models through the HDT consistency index, capturing anomalies not covered by the model.

[0118] First, based on the flywheel design drawings, a three-dimensional geometric model of the rotor is established in finite element software; and the rotor surface is meshed, wherein the stress concentration area (edge, spoke root) adopts a dense mesh (mesh size ≤ 1mm), and the non-critical area adopts a gradient mesh to balance accuracy and computing power; the present invention does not limit the distribution of the mesh and can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0119] The three-dimensional geometric model of the rotor is assigned values ​​based on the mechanical properties of the rotor material, including the elastic modulus. Poisson's ratio ,density and coefficient of thermal expansion .

[0126] Based on measured temperature distribution Calculate thermal strain , The coefficient of thermal expansion of the material. The reference temperature is the temperature at which the material has no thermal strain. Thermal strain is introduced into the stress field through temperature field coupling.

[0127] Next, after calculating the transient stress field using an implicit solver and obtaining the stress tensor (including normal stress and shear stress in the x, y, and z directions) for each grid node, an interpolation algorithm is used to extend the discrete node stress into a continuous spatial distribution. Stress cloud map is generated.

[0128] Finally, the stress measured by the NV color center quantum sensor was... Compared with model predictions For comparison, when the error exceeds 5%, adjust the material parameters (such as elastic modulus ±5%) or mesh density, and recalculate until the error is less than 5% and the health consistency index is met. .

[0129] Predicting the flywheel's spatial position Magnetic induction intensity distribution at [location] Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0130] First, a three-dimensional geometric model of the magnetic bearing (coil, magnetic pole) and rotor (iron core / permanent magnet) is established in electromagnetic simulation software; the three-dimensional geometric model is meshed, and a finer mesh (mesh size ≤ 0.1 mm) is used for areas with large magnetic field gradients such as air gap and magnetic pole tip; this invention does not limit the distribution of the mesh and can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0131] The three-dimensional geometric model is assigned values ​​based on the magnetic properties of the material, including coil conductivity, relative magnetic permeability of magnetic poles, magnetic pole saturation magnetic induction intensity and / or permanent magnet remanence and permanent magnet coercivity.

[0132] Secondly, the measured physical quantities are converted into excitation sources for the electromagnetic model:

The material constant for crack propagation is determined by fatigue testing of the rotor material; preferably, it is used in this invention. ; The stress intensity factor amplitude is positively correlated with stress level and crack size. The material index for crack propagation indicates the material's sensitivity to crack propagation, such as the material index of a steel rotor. .

[0155] Based on the acoustic wave transmission efficiency obtained in step S110 When the crack length decreases significantly, the crack length is obtained, and the time it takes for the crack length to reach the design critical value is calculated by simulating the crack propagation rate. This time is the predicted remaining lifetime. The design critical value can be obtained by consulting the product manual; the sound wave transmission efficiency can be obtained through experimental calibration. The empirical formula relating crack length to crack length is based on The length of the crack can be obtained by observing the decrease in the crack value.

It simulates the failure evolution process in the absence of physical faults, predicts remaining lifespan in advance, and allows for advance planning of downtime for the maintenance of magnetic levitation flywheels. The quantifiable model error avoids misjudgments caused by model inaccuracy, improves the transparency and interpretability of the prediction process, and solves the black box problem of traditional data-driven models.

[0157] Next, proceed to step S130.

[0158] In step S130, the data of the flywheel and the output of the flywheel digital twin model are input into the pre-trained federated learning model for health scoring.

[0159] In this embodiment of the invention, the step of inputting the flywheel data and the output of the flywheel digital twin model into a pre-trained federated learning model for health scoring includes: training a local federated learning model based on historical data; the historical data includes local stress on the flywheel surface, local magnetic field strength, acoustic wave transmission efficiency, acoustic wave spectrum centroid, health consistency index, and a time series predicting the remaining lifespan of the flywheel; sending the weight gradient parameters of all local federated learning models to the cloud for global model aggregation to obtain a global gradient; updating the global model parameters based on the global gradient; distributing the updated global model parameters to each client, which continues training based on the new parameters, iterating until the global loss converges to obtain a new federated learning model; and inputting the flywheel data and the output of the flywheel digital twin model into the new federated learning model to output a health score. .

[0160] In this embodiment of the invention, predicting the remaining service life of the flywheel using the flywheel digital twin model includes:

[0173] Time series segmentation: The sliding window method is used to segment long time series data into multiple subsequences. The window length is set to 30 (i.e., containing 30 consecutive sampling points), the step size is set to 10, and training samples are generated in the format of (feature sequence, health label). The health label indicates whether the data of the corresponding window length has equipment operation and maintenance records and the severity of the fault.

[0174] Step 2: Feature Extraction

[0175] Spatial distribution pattern extraction is performed based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). The CNN network consists of two convolutional layers (3×3 kernel size, ReLU activation function) used for extraction. , Spatial distribution pattern

[0176] Time extraction is performed using a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network. The LSTM subnetwork contains one LSTM layer (64 hidden units) for learning. , , The dynamic pattern of time.

[0177] The outputs of the CNN and LSTM are concatenated to obtain the feature vector. A health score is output through a single fully connected layer (with the sigmoid activation function). .

[0178] Step 3: Training Process

[0179] The preprocessed training samples were divided into a training set and a validation set in an 8:2 ratio.

[0180] Loss function: Mean squared error (MSE) is used as the local loss. ;

[0181] The model weight gradient is calculated using the backpropagation algorithm. ;

[0182] Optimizer: Select the Adam optimizer, set the learning rate to 0.001, and the weight decay to [value missing]. ;

[0183] Training iteration: The training batch size is 32 samples, the number of iteration rounds is 50, and the model performance is evaluated on the validation set after every 5 rounds of training. If the performance declines, training is stopped (the performance is judged to have declined when the validation set performance index shows a deteriorating trend for more than 2 consecutive rounds or the mean squared error increases by more than 5% in a single round).

[0184] Step 4: Model Evaluation and Gradient Extraction

[0185] After training, evaluate the model's health score prediction accuracy on the validation set. If the accuracy requirement is met (validation set MSE < 0.05), then extract the model's weight gradients. The model is uploaded to the cloud server to participate in global model aggregation; if the accuracy is not satisfactory, the model architecture or hyperparameters need to be adjusted and the model retrained until the accuracy requirements are met.

[0186] Step 5: Health Score Acquisition

[0187] The true health label of the sample was determined by combining equipment maintenance records with expert annotations. :

[0188] For example: If the equipment is in a fault-free and normal operating condition, it should be labeled... If the equipment has minor defects (such as micron-sized cracks or micro-delamination), please indicate the defect. If the equipment has moderate defects (such as cracks extending to 0.3mm, or delamination area increasing), indicate this. If the equipment has severe defects (such as critical cracks or magnetic bearing failure), indicate this. 0.

[0189] Local federated learning models learn input features With Real Health Labels The mapping relationship, after training, is based on the input feature vector. Model output This is the predicted health score.

[0190] Calculate local loss using the following formula :

[0191]

[0192] Where N is the number of samples in the local training set; The predicted health score for the j-th sample; Let be the true health label of the j-th sample.

[0193] The smaller the value, the more accurately the local federated learning model learns the mapping relationship between health status and input features. During training, the model continuously adjusts its parameters through the backpropagation algorithm to minimize... This improves the predictive accuracy of health scores.

[0194] Model weight gradient It is a loss function For the set of model weight parameters The partial derivatives reflect the direction and magnitude of parameter updates.

[0195] First, for a single sample Calculate the loss on the output Partial derivatives:

[0196]

[0197] By backpropagating along the model, the partial derivatives of the loss with respect to the parameters of the fully connected layer, LSTM layer, and CNN layer are calculated sequentially to obtain the weight gradient of the entire model. (Includes parameter gradients for all layers).

[0198] 2. Global model aggregation:

[0199] Step 1: Calculate the client-side aggregate weight.

[0200] The cloud assigns aggregation weights based on the amount of local data on each client, ensuring that clients with more data contribute more to the global model.

[0201] Let the first The local data volume of each client is The total amount of data from all clients is , If the total number of clients is , then the th The aggregate weight of each client is: ,satisfy This ensures that the weights are normalized.

[0202] Step 2: Gradient-weighted aggregation.

[0203] The cloud performs a weighted average of the gradients from all clients to generate a global gradient:

[0204]

[0205] Step 3: Update global model parameters.

[0206] Global model parameters are updated using global gradients in the cloud. :

[0207]

[0208] in, The global learning rate (adjusted from 0.001 to 0.01 depending on convergence) is used to achieve iterative optimization of the global model.

[0209] Step 4: Global model distribution and iteration.

[0210] The cloud will update the global model parameters The new global model is distributed to all clients, who then continue local training based on it, repeating the process of local training → gradient uploading → global aggregation until the global model converges (e.g., global loss). (Tend to stabilize).

[0211] When the relative rate of change of global loss in two consecutive rounds is less than or equal to a preset threshold When the global model converges, it is determined that:

[0212]

[0213] in, This represents the number of iterations. For the first The global loss after the next iteration; For the first The global loss after the next iteration; It is 0.01.

[0214] Failure modes of a single flywheel are extremely rare, and relying on historical data from a single device to train a fault diagnosis model will result in poor model generalization ability. The federated learning approach of this invention optimizes the model using multi-scenario data from multiple clients, improving fault identification generalization while avoiding the leakage of raw data.

[0215] Next, proceed to step S140.

[0216] At step S140, a graded response is performed based on the predicted remaining flywheel lifespan and the health score.

[0217] In this embodiment of the invention, a graded response is performed based on the predicted remaining service life of the flywheel and the health score, including:

[0218] A comprehensive early warning index is calculated based on health score, predicted remaining life expectancy, and health consistency index. :

[0219] ;

[0220] in, Rate your health; For health consistency index; To predict remaining lifespan; Design the flywheel for maximum remaining lifespan. ;

[0221] when At that time, the warning level was Level 1;

[0222] when At that time, the warning level was Level 2;

[0223] when At that time, the warning level was Level 3;

[0224] The graded response includes:

[0225] When the warning level is Level 1, and When this happens, active vibration suppression is triggered, adjusting the PID parameters of the magnetic levitation controller to reduce the rotor vibration amplitude;

[0226] When the warning level is Level 2, and the following conditions are met: , , Under any condition, reduce the speed setpoint to decrease rotor centrifugal stress and magnetic bearing load;

[0227] When the warning level is Level 3, and the following conditions are met: , , Under any condition, an emergency shutdown is triggered, and the mechanical auxiliary bearing lock is activated to prevent rotor instability and collision, thus protecting the magnetic levitation system and the main body of the energy storage equipment.

[0228] More specifically, firstly, an early warning level is established based on a health score. Predicting remaining lifespan The comprehensive early warning index is calculated based on the consistency index with health. :

[0229]

[0230] in, The maximum remaining lifespan of the flywheel is designed (i.e., the reference service life of the flywheel minus the service life already used). The higher the value, the lower the risk.

[0231] when At that time, the warning level was Level 1 (mild risk).

[0232] when At that time, the warning level was Level 2 (moderate risk).

[0233] when At that time, the warning level was Level 3 (severe risk).

[0234] Secondly, implement graded self-healing control:

[0235] When the warning level is Level 1, and When this happens, active vibration suppression is triggered, adjusting the PID parameters of the magnetic levitation controller to reduce the rotor vibration amplitude;

[0236] When the warning level is Level 2, and the following conditions are met: , , Under any condition, reduce the speed setpoint to decrease rotor centrifugal stress and magnetic bearing load;

[0237] When the warning level is Level 3, and the following conditions are met: , , Under any condition, an emergency shutdown is triggered, and the mechanical auxiliary bearing lock is activated to prevent rotor instability and collision, thus protecting the magnetic levitation system and the main body of the energy storage equipment.

[0238] Traditional detection methods can only issue alarms after a fault is detected, and cannot proactively intervene based on the health status. For example, if the rotor experiences slight vibration, the system can only wait for the vibration to intensify before shutting down, leading to the escalation of the fault. The detection method proposed in this invention for magnetic levitation flywheel energy storage devices links the detection-diagnosis-prediction results with the control system in a closed loop. Through hierarchical control, it achieves proactive suppression of minor risks, load reduction and delay of moderate risks, and safe shutdown of severe risks. This upgrades from passive operation and maintenance to proactive self-healing, extending equipment lifespan, reducing energy storage outage rates, and optimizing operational efficiency while ensuring safety.
