The wind turbine impeller gearbox system is affected by multiple physical fields, and there are nonlinear coupling effects between the physical fields. By establishing a physical field parameter mapping relationship, the interaction between different physical fields can be quantified. The fusion of multi-source sensing data requires a unified data interface standard to ensure that data from different types of sensors can be seamlessly integrated. Standardized interface design can reduce the complexity of data processing and improve the compatibility and scalability of the system. The degradation characteristic benchmark library is constructed based on the fatigue crack propagation rate and gear tooth surface wear data of the component obtained through multi-physical field coupling test and the material damage law obtained through micro-characterization technology; the fatigue crack propagation rate and gear tooth surface wear data of the component are obtained through simulation of different degradation stages on a multi-physical field coupling test platform; the correlation between the degradation characteristics and the microstructure change is established by analyzing the material damage law through micro-characterization technology; and the test data and the micro-analysis results are integrated into the degradation characteristic benchmark library to provide a comparison standard for real-time monitoring.

[0021] In this embodiment, by dividing a plurality of fine-grained evaluation units according to the physical field type and the component function, the monitoring of the wind turbine impeller-gearbox system can be more refined and targeted; each unit focuses on specific physical field parameters, enabling the system to better capture the dynamic changes and degradation trends of each component; by formulating a unified data interface standard, data from different types of sensors can be seamlessly integrated, thereby providing comprehensive and accurate system state information to ensure effective monitoring of the interaction between each physical field; the establishment of a degradation feature benchmark library, combined with test data and microscopic analysis, can provide a comparison standard for real-time monitoring; the system can compare real-time collected data with historical degradation features during actual operation to timely detect potential faults of the wind turbine; by dividing specific evaluation units, the system can comprehensively monitor the state changes of each key component of the wind turbine; each unit has a dedicated sensor and monitoring method, which can analyze and evaluate the health status of each component in a targeted manner, improving the monitoring accuracy of the entire system; by establishing a physical field parameter mapping relationship, the nonlinear coupling effect between different physical fields can be quantified; not only can the state of each component of the system be accurately captured, but also the degradation trend of each component under different working conditions can be predicted, enhancing the reliability and life prediction of the wind turbine; by monitoring the degradation features and abnormal changes of each component early, predictive information can be provided for the operation and maintenance of the wind turbine, thereby avoiding sudden failures, improving operation and maintenance efficiency, and reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

[0022] In some embodiments of the present application, for step S2, based on the geometric characteristics and historical operation and maintenance fault data of the wind turbine impeller-gearbox system, the multi-field coupling state threshold of each evaluation unit is determined to distinguish between the normal state and the degradation risk state of the evaluation unit. Collect the geometric characteristic parameters of the wind turbine impeller and gearbox, including the length, width, thickness, and twist angle of the impeller blade, the gear modulus, number of teeth, and meshing angle of the gearbox, the bearing diameter, and contact angle, etc. Extract historical fault records, including fault type, occurrence time, fault location, and maintenance records; obtain historical multi-source sensor data; Clean the collected data to remove noise and outliers, and align them according to the time stamp to ensure consistency and comparability of the data; Use finite element analysis software to establish a multi-physical field coupling model of the impeller and gearbox system; Use the geometric characteristics as model parameters to analyze the influence of geometric characteristics on the multi-physical field coupling effect through parameterized modeling; Simulate the dynamic changes of the multi-physical field under different working conditions to analyze how geometric characteristics affect the coupling relationship between physical fields; According to historical operation and maintenance fault data, main fault modes are identified, and the correlation between each fault mode and multi-physical field coupling effect is analyzed; By using the multi-physical field coupling model, the contribution of each physical field to the fault mode under different geometric characteristics is quantified; Degradation features related to the fault mode are extracted from historical multi-source sensing data; Based on historical operation and maintenance fault data and degradation features, the normal state and degradation risk state of the component are defined; In combination with the multi-physical field coupling model, the physical field parameter range of the normal state and the degradation risk state under different geometric characteristics is analyzed; Considering the influence of geometric characteristics, the threshold value of the component with different geometric parameters is determined.

[0023] In this embodiment, by combining the geometric characteristics of the impeller and the gear box with the historical operation and maintenance fault data, the main fault modes can be accurately identified and analyzed, and the accuracy of the wind turbine fault detection can be improved. By establishing a multi-physical field coupling model, the contribution of each physical field to the fault mode can be quantified, the influence of geometric characteristics on the coupling effect between physical fields can be deeply analyzed, and the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the component health state evaluation can be improved. Based on the fusion of the multi-physical field coupling model and the historical data, the normal state and the degradation risk state of the component can be clearly distinguished, and the possible failure of the equipment can be predicted in advance, thereby reducing downtime and maintenance cost. By considering the influence of different geometric characteristics on the state of the component, individualized state evaluation threshold values can be set for different wind turbines, avoiding overly rough judgments and improving the reliability of fault diagnosis. By collecting and integrating multi-dimensional information such as multi-source sensing data and historical fault records, multi-angle data support can be provided for fault diagnosis and risk assessment, and the operation and maintenance efficiency and safety of the wind turbine are improved.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present application, for step S3, for each evaluation unit, based on the multi-field coupling state threshold value and the multi-source sensing data, a degradation candidate unit is determined; The multi-field coupling state threshold value and the multi-source sensing data are compared to screen a plurality of degradation risk units; For each degradation risk unit, multi-physical field feature data are extracted; the multi-physical field feature data include aerodynamic field parameters, structural field parameters and temperature field parameters; The normal feature data of the corresponding unit in the degradation feature reference library are used to perform item-by-item matching on the multi-physical field feature data, to eliminate false positive units caused by data fluctuations, and to retain degradation candidate units; The real-time sensing data of each evaluation unit is compared with the preset multi-field coupling state threshold value to quickly mark the units exceeding the limit; If a single unit exceeds the limit, the correlation verification of the adjacent physical field data is triggered; When the blade root stress exceeds the limit, check the blade tip vibration data simultaneously. If the vibration amplitude increases synchronously, it indicates that the aerodynamic load fluctuation is causing stress concentration, thus confirming the risk. When the gearbox oil temperature exceeds the limit, check the gear meshing frequency components. If there is a sudden increase in energy in a specific frequency band, it indicates that the wear has intensified, leading to the temperature rise, and the risk is confirmed. The unit is marked as a degradation risk unit only when both layers of verification pass, to avoid misjudgment based on a single parameter; For each degradation risk unit, multiphysics feature data is extracted; the multiphysics feature data includes aerodynamic field parameters, structural field parameters, and temperature field parameters; The aerodynamic field parameters of the blade root stress assessment unit include impeller speed, angle of attack, and aerodynamic load fluctuation frequency; the structural field parameters include stress amplitude, stress cycle number, and stress-temperature coupling coefficient; and the temperature field parameters include the temperature gradient and thermal stress coefficient in the blade root region. The aerodynamic field parameters of the gear meshing evaluation unit include impeller output torque fluctuation; the structural field parameters include gear meshing force and contact fatigue damage index; and the temperature field parameters include gearbox oil temperature and tooth surface friction heat generation rate. Using the normal feature data of the corresponding unit in the degradation feature benchmark library, the multiphysics feature data is matched item by item to eliminate misjudged units caused by data fluctuations, and retain degradation candidate units, including: The degradation characteristic benchmark library contains the distribution range of characteristic parameters of each evaluation unit under normal and degradation conditions; A risk unit is identified as a degenerate candidate unit only when all of its key characteristic parameters exceed the normal range. If some parameters exceed the limits but other parameters are normal, it is judged as a misjudged unit; A short-term monitoring mode is activated for misjudged units. If the out-of-limit parameters return to the normal range, the misjudgment is completely eliminated. If the parameters exceeding the limit continue or worsen, the unit will be reinstated to the list of degraded candidate units and its risk level will be upgraded.

[0025] In the embodiment, by combining the multi-field coupling state threshold and the multi-source sensing data, the degradation candidate unit can be accurately identified, and a plurality of degradation risk units are gradually screened out according to data comparison, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of system diagnosis; the correlation verification mechanism of adjacent physical field data is introduced, so that each risk unit not only meets the standard under a single physical field, but also needs to be verified in cooperation between multiple physical fields, thereby reducing the risk of single parameter misjudgment; by matching each item with the normal characteristic data in the degradation characteristic benchmark library, the misjudgment caused by data fluctuation can be effectively eliminated, and the real degradation candidate unit is retained; at the same time, the system automatically starts a short-time monitoring mode for the misjudged unit, further verifies and corrects the judgment result, and improves the flexibility and adaptability of intelligent diagnosis; the multi-physical field characteristic data of the pneumatic field, the structural field and the temperature field are used for comprehensive analysis, so that the degradation state of each evaluation unit can be comprehensively evaluated, and accurate diagnosis results are provided; by quickly marking the units exceeding the limit and verifying under the support of multi-physical field data, the misjudgment caused by single sensor data fluctuation is avoided, thereby improving the operation and maintenance efficiency of the wind turbine and ensuring the stability and safety of the wind power equipment.

[0026] In some embodiments of the application, for step S4, historical data corresponding to each degradation candidate unit is obtained, and the degradation trend of the degradation candidate unit is analyzed based on the historical data, to obtain the remaining service life of the wind power component corresponding to the degradation candidate unit. Historical operation and maintenance data and multi-source sensing data of each evaluation unit are collected to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the data; the data is preprocessed, including denoising, missing value filling, standardization and other steps, to ensure the data quality; For each degradation candidate unit, its degradation history is analyzed, and a hybrid model of physical model and data-driven model is used to construct a degradation trend analysis model in combination with historical operation and maintenance fault data; a regression model in machine learning, including random forest regression and support vector machine regression, is used to model the degradation trend, or a finite element analysis method is used to simulate the degradation process; different degradation models are established for the impeller, the gear box and other components according to their physical properties and historical data; The degradation speed of each degradation candidate unit is analyzed by the established degradation trend analysis model to determine the degradation mode. Based on the analyzed degradation mode, the remaining service life is calculated; for each degradation unit, the difference from the degradation threshold is calculated by comparing the historical data and the current state, and then the remaining service life of the wind turbine component is predicted.

[0027] In this embodiment, by combining the regression model in machine learning with the finite element analysis method, the degradation process of the wind turbine components can be more accurately modeled and simulated, thereby improving the accuracy of the remaining useful life prediction; the historical operation and maintenance data and multi-source sensor data are integrated to ensure the comprehensiveness and high quality of the data, which can better reflect the actual performance of the wind turbine components under different working conditions; through data preprocessing steps such as denoising, missing value filling and standardization, the integrity and accuracy of the data are ensured, thereby avoiding the influence of data quality problems on the analysis results; for different wind turbine components, specific degradation models are established to better adapt to the physical characteristics of each component and improve the analysis precision; through degradation trend analysis, the degradation speed and mode of each component can be deeply understood, and the accuracy of the fault prediction and maintenance decision of the wind turbine can be improved; accurate prediction of the remaining useful life and early warning can optimize the repair and replacement plan, avoid unnecessary downtime and sudden failures, ultimately prolong the service life of the equipment and reduce the operation and maintenance cost.
