Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of equipment testing technology, specifically to a method and system for testing secondary equipment in substations based on infrared images. Background Technology
[0002] With the global emphasis on renewable and clean energy utilization, the power industry is developing rapidly. Substations, as a crucial component of the power system, are responsible for converting high-voltage electricity into low-voltage electricity suitable for user needs. The reliability and safety of their equipment directly affect the stability of the power supply. The secondary circuits of substations, as an important part of the power system, directly impact the safety and stability of the power grid.
[0003] However, due to the complexity of substation secondary circuits, problems such as overheating defects in substation secondary equipment terminal blocks occur frequently, potentially leading to power grid accidents and severely impacting the normal operation of the power system. More critically, when overheating defects occur in secondary equipment terminals and components, the lack of real-time monitoring and early warning systems often prevents operators from detecting them in time. This can lead to the deterioration of the overheating point, posing a serious threat to power grid safety.
[0004] Therefore, existing technologies are no longer sufficient to meet the requirements for the safe and stable operation of substations, and a new type of solution is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a method and system for detecting secondary equipment in substations based on infrared images, which can effectively solve the problems of the existing technology.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] This invention discloses a method for detecting secondary equipment in substations based on infrared images, comprising the following steps:
[0008] Step 1: Based on the spatial distribution of equipment in the secondary cabinet, establish a digital model of the terminals, including the three-dimensional position coordinates of the terminals, functional attributes, upper temperature threshold, and lower temperature threshold. Based on the terminal installation height parameter, perform layered modeling to locate the equipment source.
[0009] Step 2: Configure three task modes: periodic inspection, active trigger inspection, and passive response inspection. Import the terminal inspection model into the task system and set the task start time, inspection cycle duration, and inspection interval parameters.
[0010] Step 3: Build an edge computing architecture at the substation site to perform threshold judgment on the collected terminal temperature data in real time, extract the highest temperature value of the temperature anomaly point and generate an alarm signal;
[0011] Step 4: Deploy a short-focal-length infrared imaging device with a field of view ≥120° on the door of the secondary screen cabinet. Its infrared detector and optical lens meet the requirements for close-range imaging at 30-50cm. Optimize the monitoring angle through the thermal imager tilt adjustment mechanism.
[0012] Step 5: Use a rack and pinion guide transmission device to drive the infrared acquisition device to move vertically, with the movement stroke covering the entire height area of the secondary cabinet;
[0013] Step 6: The infrared acquisition device acquires terminal temperature distribution images according to a preset trajectory and transmits them synchronously to the edge computing node;
[0014] Step 7: Perform pixel-level analysis of the temperature image through edge computing nodes. When the terminal temperature exceeds the set threshold, mark the location of the abnormal terminal and output alarm information.
[0015] Step 8: Upload the edge computing alarm data to the central monitoring system and generate a test report by associating it with the equipment ledger information.
[0016] Furthermore, the terminal digitization model in step 1 includes the longitudinal layer coordinate information of the terminal block, with a height difference of 50±5mm between each layer of terminals, and is associated with the equipment nameplate parameters and electrical circuit numbers.
[0017] Furthermore, in step 2, the active-triggered inspection is triggered by a change in equipment status, the passive-response inspection is activated by a remote control command, and the periodic inspection interval can be set to be adjustable from 1 to 24 hours.
[0018] Furthermore, the threshold determination in step 3 employs a dynamic compensation algorithm, the calculation formula of which is:

[0026] Calculate the average temperature value of a continuous 5×5 pixel matrix within the abnormal terminal area. When the average value exceeds the upper temperature threshold of the corresponding terminal, trigger a primary alarm signal and mark the boundary coordinates of the abnormal area for temperature gradient analysis.

If it still exceeds the limit, the final alarm information is output to the central monitoring terminal.

When the temperature exceeds the upper limit threshold of the terminal, a first-level alarm is triggered, and heat diffusion path and gradient change analysis are performed. If the gradient change rate is >0.8 ℃ / pixel and lasts for 3 frames, a second-level alarm is generated, and the threshold is dynamically corrected and reviewed simultaneously.
[0040] The alarm data integration module is used to upload the alarm data generated by the temperature anomaly alarm module to the central monitoring system through a secure channel, and associate it with the equipment ledger information to automatically generate detection reports. It supports historical data backtracking, alarm statistics, and multi-dimensional report output.

[0044] 2. By employing a short-focal-length infrared thermal imager with a field of view ≥120° and a precision rack and pinion guide transmission device, high-resolution imaging at close range of 30-50 cm and millimeter-level scanning positioning are achieved.

[0057] Step 4: Deploy a short-focal-length infrared imaging device with a field of view ≥120° on the door of the secondary screen cabinet. Its infrared detector and optical lens meet the requirements for close-range imaging at 30-50cm. Optimize the monitoring angle through the thermal imager's tilt adjustment mechanism. The infrared imaging device operates in the 8-14μm band, with a spatial resolution of no less than 1.5mrad and a temperature measurement accuracy of ±1℃ or ±1% of the reading.
[0058] Step 5: The infrared acquisition device is driven vertically by a rack and pinion guide transmission device. The movement stroke covers the entire height area of the secondary screen cabinet.

If it still exceeds the limit, the final alarm information is output to the central monitoring terminal.
[0068] Step 8: Upload the edge computing alarm data to the central monitoring system and generate a test report by associating it with the equipment ledger information.
[0069] Compared with existing technologies, by establishing a digital model of the terminal and positioning it hierarchically, a one-to-one mapping between infrared imaging and specific terminals is achieved.
