Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of digital twin technology for smart grids, specifically relating to a method and system for constructing a digital twin model of a substation by fusing multi-source data. Background Technology
[0002] With the deepening of smart grid construction, substations, as key nodes in the power system, are receiving increasing attention for their operational safety and reliability. In recent years, the power grid sector has prioritized improving sensor quality and reliability, explicitly pointing out that the intensity and distribution patterns of the electromagnetic environment in which sensors operate within substations are not yet fully understood, making it difficult to define the electromagnetic compatibility performance requirements of sensors, thus affecting their operational reliability. Traditional substation modeling methods often rely on a single data source or simplified simulation models, making it difficult to accurately reflect the complex multi-physics coupling characteristics within substations, especially during transient processes such as electromagnetic transients, where model accuracy and real-time performance are significantly insufficient.
[0003] As an improvement, while digital twin technology has seen initial applications in the industrial sector, it still faces challenges in substation scenarios. For example, substations involve data on multiple physical quantities such as electromagnetics, temperature, and vibration, sourced from sources including laser scanning, UAV mapping, high-precision CAD drawings, and electromagnetic sensors. These data vary significantly in format, sampling frequency, and spatiotemporal scale, making data fusion difficult. Traditional modeling methods tend to overlook local details in electromagnetic transient feature extraction, leading to large errors between the model and actual equipment, making it difficult to meet millimeter-level accuracy requirements. Most models rely on offline simulation, failing to achieve real-time synchronous mapping with physical entities, thus hindering dynamic early warning and decision-making. Systems often focus on displaying single physical fields, lacking dynamic simulation and visualization of multi-field coupling (electric, magnetic, temperature, etc.), and missing multi-physics coupling analysis. In summary, current substation modeling methods suffer from high data heterogeneity, making data fusion difficult. Local details are difficult to extract in electromagnetic transient feature extraction, resulting in large errors. Dynamic simulation and analysis of multi-physics coupling are insufficient, and the accuracy and real-time performance of the models require further optimization. Summary of the Invention

[0036] All collected data were uniformly converted to IFC (Industrial Basic Class) format and spatially registered using the WGS84 coordinate system to ensure that the overall layout similarity of the model is ≥98%.
[0037] Step 2: Construct a real-time data acquisition network for data assimilation; To achieve dynamic synchronization between the digital twin model and the physical entity, multi-physics monitoring equipment was deployed and a data fusion mechanism was established; Electromagnetic sensors (to measure electric and magnetic field strength), temperature sensors (to monitor equipment temperature rise), and flow sensors (to detect coolant flow) are deployed at key nodes in the substation, with sampling frequencies up to 1kHz to ensure real-time performance.
[0038] A Kalman filter layer is used to perform preliminary fusion of multi-source data, addressing the issues of temporal asynchrony and noise in sensor data. The Kalman filter formula is based on the filtering principle in document 1, achieving state estimation and error correction.
[0039] Local preprocessing is performed via edge computing nodes, reducing the cloud transmission load. Data upload cycle is 5 seconds, supporting dynamic updates of the digital twin model.
[0040] Step 3: Feature extraction and weighted fusion of multi-source data fusion network. Deep learning network is used to deeply fuse heterogeneous data.

[0044] U-Net networks are used for spatial field prediction, such as Figure 5 As shown, U-Net employs an encoder-decoder structure, fusing shallow details and deep features through skip connections. The formula for calculating the output segmentation probability map is as follows: ; in, The segmentation probability map output by the U-Net network is used to represent the probability distribution of physical fields (such as temperature fields) in the substation at various locations in space.
