Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of multi-physics field fault diagnosis technology for power system transformers, and more specifically, to a method and system for multi-physics field transformer fault diagnosis based on a hypergraph structure. Background Technology

[0002] Transformer operating conditions involve coupling mechanisms of thermal field, dielectric electrical behavior (partial discharge), and acoustic radiation. Current online monitoring primarily relies on single physical quantities, such as temperature threshold alarms, partial discharge amplitude or pulse counts, acoustic energy, or location assessments, often depending on manual features or empirical thresholds. Due to fluctuations in operating conditions and noise, single-source signals are prone to misinterpretation; differences in data scale, time alignment, and statistical distribution across different physical fields make accurate characterization of cross-source correlations difficult, especially in scenarios with small or imbalanced samples.

[0003] Existing multi-source fusion methods often employ strategies such as feature concatenation and weighted voting, requiring numerous sensors and large-scale labeled data. Deep learning methods, such as one-dimensional convolution and recurrent networks, often treat each channel as an independent input, ignoring the structural relationships between channels. Although graph / hypergraph methods can describe many-to-many relationships, they usually require direct estimation of the topology from real data, making them susceptible to noise and sample scarcity, resulting in instability, insufficient generalization, and high computational cost.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for a lightweight diagnostic technique that can robustly model multi-physics channel relationships under small sample conditions and is easy to deploy. Currently, no descriptions or reports of techniques similar to this invention have been found, and no similar materials from domestic or international sources have been collected. Summary of the Invention

By adjusting the relevant parameters, the normal operating conditions and various fault conditions are simulated, and the simulation data matrix is ​​output. Based on the simulation data matrix, a hypergraph structure is generated using the proximity relation method, and the actual collected multiphysics field signals are mapped to the hypergraph structure to obtain hypergraph samples. The node features of the hypergraph samples are propagated and calculated using a hypergraph convolutional network to obtain low-dimensional embedding feature vectors for each channel. These feature vectors are then concatenated to form a global feature vector. Finally, the corresponding fault category is output through a classifier.

[0007] Preferably, the acquisition of multi-physics field signals from the transformer during operation to form a real data matrix includes: Multi-physics field signals of the transformer during operation are synchronously acquired and aligned on a unified time axis to form a multi-channel time series data matrix; wherein, the multi-physics field includes temperature signal, partial discharge signal and sound field signal, and the multi-channel time series data matrix includes: temperature field channel set T, partial discharge signal channel set D and sound field channel set P; The time series data matrices from each channel are normalized and then stacked to form the actual data matrix. ; wherein, the real data matrix The rows and channels correspond one-to-one.

[0008] Preferably, based on the real data matrix, a multi-physics coupling simulation model of the transformer is established. By adjusting relevant parameters, normal operating conditions and various fault conditions are simulated, and a simulation data matrix is ​​output, including: A transformer multiphysics coupled simulation model is established, which is co-structured with the channel set of the real data matrix. By adjusting the relevant parameters of the simulation model, normal operating conditions and various fault conditions are simulated, and a simulation data matrix is ​​output; wherein: Let the total number of channels in the channel set be: Let the length of the feature vector for each channel be L, then the true data matrix With simulation data matrix The i-th row corresponds to the measured and simulated representations of the i-th channel, respectively; the i-th row of the simulation data matrix S is denoted as the channel vector. ; For each channel vector Zero-mean and unit-variance normalization is performed as a distance metric for subsequent construction of the hypergraph structure and nearest neighbor retrieval.

[0009] Preferably, the step of generating a hypergraph structure based on the simulation data matrix using a proximity method, and mapping the actually acquired multiphysics field signals to the hypergraph structure to obtain hypergraph samples, includes: Based on the simulation data matrix, the proximity relationship between channels is calculated to generate a hypergraph structure; wherein, the hypergraph structure includes: an association matrix, a hyperedge weight matrix, a node degree matrix, and a hyperedge degree matrix; Using the correlation matrix as the topology and the real data matrix as the node features, the actual collected multi-physics field signals are mapped to the hypergraph structure to obtain hypergraph samples.

[0010] According to another aspect of the present invention, a multiphysics transformer fault diagnosis system based on a hypergraph structure is provided, comprising: Multi-source data acquisition module: This module is used to acquire multi-physical field signals of the transformer during operation and form a multi-channel real data matrix; The model-assisted hypergraph construction module establishes a transformer multi-physics coupling simulation model based on the real data matrix. By adjusting relevant parameters, it simulates normal operating conditions and various fault conditions, and outputs a simulation data matrix. Based on the simulation data matrix, a hypergraph structure is generated using the proximity relation method, and the actually collected multi-physics signals are mapped to the hypergraph structure to obtain hypergraph samples. The hypergraph convolutional diagnostic module uses a hypergraph convolutional network to propagate and calculate the node features of the hypergraph samples, obtains the low-dimensional embedding feature vectors of each channel, and concatenates the feature vectors to form a global feature vector. The classification and result output module is used to output the corresponding fault category through the classifier.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has at least one of the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: The present invention provides a method and system for transformer fault diagnosis based on a hypergraph structure and multiphysics field. It constructs a stable hypergraph topology structure with the assistance of simulation data and achieves efficient fusion of multiphysics field features by combining real data, thereby realizing lightweight fault diagnosis of transformers while reducing sensor and computing resources.

[0012] The present invention provides a method and system for transformer fault diagnosis based on a supergraph structure and multiphysics field. By synchronously collecting multiphysics field signals such as temperature, partial discharge, and sound field during transformer operation and standardizing them to form a real data matrix, a multiphysics field coupled simulation model co-constructed with the real data channel set is established. The parameters are adjusted to simulate normal and various fault conditions and output simulation data, thereby avoiding the problem that real data is easily affected by noise and operating condition fluctuations, and providing a stable data foundation for subsequent supergraph topology construction.

[0013] The present invention provides a method and system for multi-physics transformer fault diagnosis based on a hypergraph structure. It calculates the proximity relationship between channels based on simulation data (such as Euclidean distance to select K nearest neighbors), generates a hypergraph structure including an association matrix, a hyperedge weight matrix, a node degree matrix, and a hyperedge degree matrix, and then maps the real data matrix as node features to the hypergraph to form a hypergraph sample. This solves the problem that traditional graph / hypergraph methods rely on real data to build topology, resulting in structural instability and ambiguity of physical meaning. It enables the hypergraph to accurately capture the complex relationships between multi-physics channels.

[0014] The present invention provides a method and system for transformer fault diagnosis based on a hypergraph structure and multiphysics field. It uses a hypergraph convolutional network with only two layers to propagate and calculate the features of hypergraph sample nodes. After obtaining the low-dimensional embedding vectors of each channel, they are sequentially concatenated into a global feature vector, which is then input into a two-layer fully connected classifier to output the fault category. This significantly reduces the scale of network parameters and avoids the high computational overhead of traditional deep learning (such as 1D-CNN and Transformer). It is also suitable for the lightweight deployment requirements of transformer field edge devices.

[0015] The present invention provides a method and system for transformer fault diagnosis based on a hypergraph structure and multiphysics field. During the training phase, the hypergraph topology constructed from simulation data is fixed (the correlation matrix, hyperedge weight matrix, etc. remain unchanged). Only the trainable weights and classifier parameters of the hypergraph convolution are optimized. During the inference phase, there is no need to reconstruct the topology; only data input, convolution calculation, and classification output are performed. This not only improves the stability of parameter optimization during training but also significantly shortens the inference time, further enhancing the real-time diagnostic capability. At the same time, by efficiently fusing multiphysics field information through the hypergraph, the dependence on redundant sensors is reduced, thus ensuring diagnostic accuracy while reducing hardware costs.

The classification and result output module is used to output the corresponding fault category through the classifier.

[0037] The implementation methods of each functional module constituting the system provided in the above embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below.

[0053] The technical solution provided by the above embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to a specific verification example.
