Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer material processing and industrial automation control technology, specifically a temperature control system for surface temperature uniformity in a thin film production line. Background Technology

[0002] Polymer film stretching production lines are industrial production systems that use mechanical stretching devices to extend heated polymer melts or sheets at specific temperatures to improve the physical properties of films. During high-speed transport, to ensure film forming quality, multi-temperature zone heating devices are typically used to precisely control the film surface temperature, aiming to maintain uniform temperature distribution throughout the line. However, actual production environments are complex and variable, with raw material rheological properties often undergoing abrupt changes, and environmental interference factors such as wind fields are difficult to avoid. Existing technologies typically use fixed-parameter control models, which cannot accurately reflect the thermal properties of the film material over time and the environmental heat transfer coefficient, leading to model prediction mismatches. Furthermore, strong thermal coupling effects exist between adjacent heating zones, often resulting in conflicting control objectives. Additionally, heating actuators experience hardware aging and efficiency degradation after long-term operation. If parameter changes cannot be detected in real time and the interplay between temperature zones cannot be coordinated, uneven film heating, thermal stress concentration, and even film breakage can easily occur, posing significant production quality and safety risks. Therefore, a solution is urgently needed to address the problems existing in current technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a temperature control system for surface temperature uniformity in a thin film production line. Specifically, the technical solution of the present invention includes:

[0004] The data acquisition module is used to acquire real-time status data during the thin film production process. The real-time status data includes the spatiotemporal temperature distribution data of the thin film, real-time linear velocity data, heater input power data, and ambient temperature data.

[0005] The parameter inversion module is used to invert the thermal property parameters characterizing the properties of thin film materials and the comprehensive convective heat transfer coefficient parameters characterizing environmental disturbances based on spatiotemporal temperature distribution data and real-time linear velocity data using a preset physical information neural network model.

[0006] The entropy monitoring module is used to calculate the thermal coupling entropy index based on heater input power data, spatiotemporal temperature distribution data and preset actuator health factors. The thermal coupling entropy index is a value used to quantify the degree of conflict between control targets between adjacent heating temperature zones.

[0007] The game-theoretic control module is used to construct a state-space model based on thermal property parameters and comprehensive convective heat transfer coefficient parameters, establish the objective function of model predictive control, dynamically adjust the weight of the smoothing term in the objective function according to the thermal coupling entropy exponent, and solve to generate multi-temperature zone heating power control commands.

[0008] The closed-loop correction module is used to calculate the correction increment to update the actuator health factor based on the deviation between the predicted response of the state-space model and the spatiotemporal temperature distribution data, and then feeds the updated actuator health factor back to the entropy monitoring module.

[0009] Optionally, the parameter inversion module, based on spatiotemporal temperature distribution data and real-time linear velocity data, uses a preset physical information neural network model to invert the thermal property parameters and comprehensive convective heat transfer coefficient parameters of the thin film, specifically by performing the following steps:

[0010] A neural network with embedded fluid dynamics and thermodynamics equations is constructed, and the residuals of the physical equations are calculated using automatic differentiation techniques.

[0011] The physical equation residuals are constructed based on the transient one-dimensional energy conservation equation of the moving medium. The calculation of the residuals involves the sum of squares of the following terms: the energy storage change of the thin film over time, the convection term with displacement, the heat conduction term, the heating input term introduced by the heater input power, and the environmental heat dissipation term between the thin film surface and the environment.

[0012] By training a neural network to minimize the residuals of the physical equations, the outputs time-varying thermophysical parameters and comprehensive convective heat transfer coefficient parameters are obtained.

[0013] Specifically, the thermophysical parameters include the specific heat capacity of the thin film and the density of the thin film.

[0014] Optionally, the entropy monitoring module calculates the thermal coupling entropy exponent by performing the following steps:

[0015] Obtain the heater input power data of two adjacent temperature zones, divide them by the product of the rated power and the corresponding actuator health factor, calculate the absolute value of the difference between the two, and obtain the load rate difference.

[0016] Obtain the spatiotemporal temperature distribution data of two adjacent temperature zones, calculate the absolute value of the difference between their temperature values, and obtain the absolute value of the temperature difference;

[0017] Multiply the absolute value of the temperature difference by the preset thermocoupler coefficient, and perform an exponential function operation on the product to obtain the temperature difference influence factor;

[0018] Calculate the product of the load rate difference and the temperature difference influence factor, and then sum and average the products of all adjacent temperature zones to obtain the thermal coupling entropy index.

[0019] Optionally, the game-theoretic control module constructs a state-space model based on thermal property parameters and comprehensive convective heat transfer coefficient parameters, and specifically executes the following steps:

[0020] The inverted thin film specific heat capacity parameters, thin film density parameters, and comprehensive convective heat transfer coefficient parameters are used as time-varying physical coefficients and substituted into the preset one-dimensional partial differential equation of heat conduction.

[0021] The one-dimensional heat conduction partial differential equation is discretized in space and time to generate a linear state-space equation containing the state transition matrix and the input matrix.

[0022] The input matrix includes an actuator health factor, which is used to adjust the gain of the control input to characterize the actual output efficiency of the actuator.

[0023] Optionally, the game-theoretic control module dynamically adjusts the weights of the objective function for model prediction and control by combining the thermal coupling entropy exponent, specifically by performing the following steps:

[0024] Construct a quadratic programming cost function, which contains at least three terms: a tracking error term representing the temperature tracking accuracy, a control increment smoothing term representing the change in control action in the time dimension, and a spatial second derivative term representing the difference in output between adjacent actuators in the spatial dimension.

[0025] A variable weighting coefficient is assigned to the second derivative term in the spatial domain, and a positive correlation mapping relationship is established between this weighting coefficient and the thermal coupling entropy exponent.

[0026] In each control cycle, the weight coefficients are updated based on the real-time calculated thermal coupling entropy exponent, and the control sequence that minimizes the quadratic programming cost function is solved. The first element of the sequence is extracted as the multi-temperature zone heating power control command.

[0027] Optionally, a positive correlation mapping relationship can be established between the weighting coefficients and the thermal coupling entropy exponent, specifically including:

[0028] Preset a thermal coupling entropy threshold and a basic weight value;

[0029] The mapping rules are set using the logic of the S-shaped function: when the real-time calculated thermal coupling entropy exponent is less than the thermal coupling entropy threshold, the weight coefficient remains near the basic weight value; when the thermal coupling entropy exponent exceeds the thermal coupling entropy threshold, the weight coefficient increases non-linearly and rapidly with the increase of the entropy value, so as to forcibly penalize the output difference of adjacent temperature zones in the cost function.

[0030] Optionally, the closed-loop correction module corrects the actuator health factor by performing the following steps:

[0031] The predicted temperature rise rate at the current moment is calculated using a state-space model;

[0032] The measured temperature rise rate at the current moment is calculated using the collected spatiotemporal temperature distribution data;

[0033] Calculate the ratio of the measured temperature rise rate to the predicted temperature rise rate, and calculate the deviation between this ratio and the reference value;

[0034] The cumulative deviation over time is integrated, and the result of the integration is multiplied by a preset adaptive update gain to obtain the correction increment.

[0035] Add the correction increment to the executor health factor from the previous moment to obtain the updated executor health factor for the current moment.

[0036] Optionally, modifying the actuator health factor also includes the following safety verification steps:

[0037] Determine whether the updated actuator health factor is lower than the preset lower threshold.

[0038] If the value is below the lower threshold, the corresponding heater is determined to have a hardware aging failure, and a hardware replacement alarm signal is generated.

The system adaptively adjusts the weight of the smoothing term in the model predictive control according to the index. In low-risk situations, it prioritizes ensuring temperature tracking accuracy, while in high-risk situations, it forces the smoothing of the output differences between adjacent actuators, effectively resolving the thermal stress concentration caused by strong coupling between multiple temperature zones and reducing the risk of membrane failure.

A variable weighting coefficient is assigned to the second derivative term in the spatial domain, and a positive correlation mapping relationship is established between this weighting coefficient and the thermal coupling entropy exponent.
