Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fault monitoring technology, specifically relating to a fault monitoring method and system for heating units in thermal power plants. Background Technology
[0002] The heating units in a combined heat and power (CHP) plant are key equipment in the system, and their operating status directly affects the continuity of heating, power generation efficiency, and the overall safe and stable operation of the power plant. Because CHP units typically operate under high temperature, high pressure, high load, and continuous operation conditions for extended periods, their internal and external structures are susceptible to vibration, thermal stress changes, mechanical wear, and component aging. This can lead to abnormal vibration, localized damage, seal failure, and decreased heat transfer efficiency, among other potential malfunctions. Therefore, real-time, accurate, and comprehensive fault monitoring of CHP units is crucial for ensuring safe operation, reducing the risk of unplanned downtime, and improving maintenance efficiency.
[0003] Existing fault monitoring methods for heating units in thermal power plants typically rely on fixed sensor networks for data acquisition. These networks use vibration sensors, temperature sensors, and noise sensors to collect operational status signals from localized locations within the unit. Backend data processing algorithms then analyze these signals to determine if any abnormalities exist. While this method can achieve some level of status monitoring for key areas, its results depend heavily on discrete data collected from fixed measuring points, and the monitoring range is significantly limited by the sensor placement.
[0004] In actual operation, faults in heating units often exhibit characteristics such as uncertain spatial distribution, weak early signals, and rapid changes in abnormal areas. Relying solely on fixed-point sensors for detection can easily lead to monitoring blind spots, making it difficult to promptly reflect the overall health status and abnormal distribution of the equipment. When a fault occurs in an area not covered by sensors or before the initial fault signal has reached the fixed measuring point, existing monitoring methods may fail to identify it in time, resulting in missed detections, misjudgments, or inaccurate fault location. Furthermore, current technologies primarily focus on improving backend signal analysis models, while paying insufficient attention to frontend data acquisition methods, spatial scanning monitoring processes, and multi-source data fusion diagnostic procedures, making it difficult to meet the actual needs of condition-based maintenance and predictive maintenance of heating units. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problems of existing thermal power plant heating unit fault monitoring mainly relying on fixed-point sensors to collect discrete data, which makes it difficult to reflect the overall health status of the equipment and the spatial distribution of faults, and is prone to monitoring blind spots, missed detections and inaccurate fault location. This invention provides a method and system for monitoring faults in thermal power plant heating units.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for fault monitoring of heating units in a thermal power plant, comprising the following steps: Collect operating data from heating units; The preset monitoring area of the heating unit equipment shell is calibrated in three dimensions, and a global scanning path covering the preset monitoring area is planned.

Generate a fault report and issue an alarm based on the fault type and location; The heating unit was maintained according to the fault report.
[0007] A further improvement of this invention lies in the following method for three-dimensional spatial calibration of the preset monitoring area of the heating unit equipment casing, and for planning a global scanning path covering the preset monitoring area: Obtain the preset monitoring area of the heating unit equipment shell and determine the boundary range of the preset monitoring area in three-dimensional space; Generate a global scan path grid that covers the entire preset monitoring area based on the boundary range.
[0008] A further improvement of the present invention is that, when performing a wide-area general survey scan of the surface of the heating unit equipment along the global scanning path, the scan moves and pauses sequentially along each path node in the global scanning path, and emits active sound waves at each path node.
[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the active sound wave adopts a broadband pulsed sound wave, or a sound wave emitted according to a preset frequency and preset mode, and the active sound wave is used to excite the outer casing of the heating unit equipment.
[0010] A further improvement of this invention is that, at each path node, the acoustic response signal modulated by the outer shell of the heating unit is collected synchronously, and the spatial coordinates of the scanning head corresponding to each acoustic response signal are recorded to form global acoustic feature distribution data with spatial position correspondence.
[0011] A further improvement of this invention is that, when preprocessing the running data and global acoustic feature distribution data, the acquired data is filtered, denoised, and smoothed.
[0012] A further improvement of this invention is that, when performing fault diagnosis based on trend information and anomaly information, standardized monitoring data is compared with a fault diagnosis database in multiple dimensions, and the fault diagnosis model outputs the fault type and fault location of the heating unit.
[0013] Secondly, the present invention provides a fault monitoring system for heating units in thermal power plants, comprising the following steps: The data acquisition module is used to collect operating data of the heating unit; The path calibration module is used to perform three-dimensional spatial calibration of the preset monitoring area of the heating unit equipment shell and plan a global scanning path covering the preset monitoring area. The spectral scanning module is used to perform a wide-area general survey scan of the surface of the heating unit equipment along the global scanning path, collect the acoustic response signal and its corresponding spatial coordinates, and obtain global acoustic feature distribution data.

The alarm module is used to generate fault reports and issue alarms based on the fault type and location. The maintenance module is used to maintain the heating unit based on fault reports.
[0014] Thirdly, the present invention provides an electronic device, including a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores a computer program, and the processor executes the computer program to implement the steps of a method for monitoring faults in a thermal power plant heating unit.
[0015] Fourthly, the present invention provides a storage medium storing a computer program thereon, wherein the computer program, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of a method for monitoring faults in a thermal power plant heating unit.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention collects operating data from heating units and performs three-dimensional spatial calibration and global scanning path planning on a preset monitoring area on the unit's outer casing. This allows the scanning head to perform a wide-area survey of the equipment surface along the global scanning path, thereby obtaining acoustic response signals and their corresponding spatial coordinates, forming global acoustic feature distribution data with spatial distribution characteristics. Compared with traditional fixed-point sensor monitoring methods, this invention transforms discrete-point detection into regionalized, continuous scanning detection, reducing monitoring blind spots caused by limited measurement point placement, improving the perception of the overall health status and abnormal spatial distribution of the equipment, and reducing the risk of missed detections. This invention preprocesses, synchronizes, aggregates, and filters operating data and acoustic feature distribution data, unifying the format and temporal relationship of data from different sources, improving data quality and the accuracy of subsequent analysis. By identifying trends and anomalies in standardized monitoring data and combining this with fault diagnosis to determine fault type and location, this invention can improve the accuracy of fault judgment and location. This invention generates fault reports and alarms based on fault type and location, enabling maintenance personnel to promptly detect anomalies and carry out targeted maintenance, thereby improving the efficiency of fault monitoring, operational safety, and timeliness of maintenance for heating units.

[0018] To further understand the content of this invention, the invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely illustrative and not limiting of the invention.

[0028] Example 2: See Figure 2 A fault monitoring system for heating units in a thermal power plant includes the following steps: The data acquisition module is used to collect operating data of the heating unit.
[0029] The path calibration module is used to perform three-dimensional spatial calibration of the preset monitoring area on the outer shell of the heating unit equipment and plan a global scanning path covering the preset monitoring area.
[0030] The spectral scanning module is used to perform a wide-area survey scan of the surface of the heating unit equipment along the global scanning path, collect the acoustic response signal and its corresponding spatial coordinates, and obtain global acoustic feature distribution data.
[0031] The preprocessing module is used to preprocess the running data and global acoustic feature distribution data to obtain preprocessed data.
[0032] The standardization module is used to synchronize, aggregate, and filter preprocessed data to obtain standardized monitoring data.
[0033] The information identification module is used to analyze standardized monitoring data and identify trend and abnormal information during the operation of the heating unit.
[0034] The fault location module is used to diagnose faults based on trend and anomaly information, and to determine the fault type and location of the heating unit.
[0035] The alarm module is used to generate fault reports and issue alarms based on the fault type and location.
[0036] The maintenance module is used to maintain the heating unit based on fault reports.
[0037] Example 3: The fault monitoring process of the heating unit in the thermal power plant in this embodiment can be achieved collaboratively by functional components such as data acquisition, information collection, diagnostic analysis, and user management. These functional components are connected via network signals, enabling the transmission and exchange of heating unit operating data, acoustic scanning data, analysis results, fault reports, and maintenance information.
[0038] The data acquisition section includes data acquisition and data preprocessing functions. The data acquisition process is used to collect operating data of the heating unit and acoustic response data obtained by acoustic scanning of the equipment casing; the data preprocessing process is used to filter, denoise, and smooth the acquired data to reduce the impact of environmental noise, signal fluctuations, and abnormal interference on subsequent fault diagnosis results.
[0039] Specifically, at the start of fault monitoring, the operating data of the heating unit is first collected. This operating data can reflect the equipment status during the operation of the heating unit. Simultaneously, a pre-defined monitoring area on the outer casing of the heating unit is calibrated in three-dimensional space to determine the boundary range of the pre-defined monitoring area in three-dimensional space, and a global scanning path grid covering the entire pre-defined monitoring area is planned based on this boundary range.
[0040] In one specific embodiment, the scanning head is mounted at the end of a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate robotic arm, which is fixed to a foundation or movable platform near the heating unit equipment via a lockable universal bracket. This mounting method allows the scanning head to move precisely along the surface of the equipment casing in three-dimensional space, thereby achieving area-based scanning of the heating unit equipment surface.
[0041] After completing the three-dimensional spatial calibration and global scanning path planning, the scanning head is driven to perform a wide-area survey scan of the heating unit equipment surface along the global scanning path. During the scanning process, the scanning head moves and pauses sequentially along each path node in the global scanning path, emitting active sound waves at each path node. The active sound waves can be broadband pulse sound waves or sound waves emitted according to a preset frequency and preset mode. The active sound waves are used to excite the heating unit equipment casing, and then the sound wave response signal modulated or reflected by the equipment casing is simultaneously acquired.
[0042] While acquiring acoustic response signals, the spatial coordinates of the scanning head corresponding to each acoustic response signal are precisely recorded, establishing a correspondence between the acquired acoustic response signals and spatial positions, thereby forming global acoustic feature distribution data with spatial distribution characteristics. This method allows for the acquisition of the acoustic response status of different areas of the device casing, providing a more comprehensive reflection of the overall health status and abnormal spatial distribution of the equipment compared to fixed-point acquisition methods.
[0043] After obtaining the operating data of the heating unit and the global acoustic characteristic distribution data, the data is preprocessed. Preprocessing includes filtering, denoising, and smoothing the data to improve data quality and reduce the impact of noise and interference on subsequent analysis. The preprocessed data is then obtained.
[0044] The information collection process includes data synchronization, data aggregation, and information filtering. Specifically, preprocessed data is synchronized and interacted with data from sensors, control systems, and other devices. Data from different sources is aggregated and integrated to form a unified data format. This aggregation process ensures the timeliness, format consistency, and unit consistency of data from different sources, reducing misjudgments and analytical errors caused by data inconsistencies. Subsequently, the aggregated data is filtered to remove invalid or interfering information, improving the accuracy of subsequent diagnostic analysis and obtaining standardized monitoring data.
[0045] The diagnostic analysis process includes data analysis, fault diagnosis, data transmission, and alarm processing. Specifically, standardized monitoring data is analyzed to extract valuable information. Analysis methods may include at least one of statistical analysis, time-series analysis, and mathematical model analysis. Through these methods, data change trends, acoustic characteristic distribution changes, and abnormal data changes during the operation of the heating unit can be identified, and the results can be used to determine whether the heating unit is in an abnormal operating state.
[0046] After identifying trend and anomaly information, fault diagnosis is performed based on this information. During fault diagnosis, standardized monitoring data is compared with a fault diagnosis database in a multi-dimensional manner, and the fault type and location of the heating unit are output through fault diagnosis model analysis. The fault diagnosis database includes normal operating data of the heating unit and a standard comparison database for the heating unit. By comparing current monitoring data with normal operating data and standard comparison data, the accuracy of fault identification and location can be improved.
[0047] After determining the fault type and location, a fault report is generated based on the fault diagnosis results. The fault report may include the fault type, fault location, abnormal data, and relevant maintenance prompts. After generating the fault report, an alarm is triggered. The alarm method may include at least one of the following: audible alarm, visual cue, SMS notification, or email notification, to ensure that operators are promptly informed of any abnormal status of the heating unit and can respond accordingly.
[0048] The user management process includes unit data terminal and unit fault maintenance. Specifically, fault reports and alarm information are transmitted to the unit data terminal. Based on the fault type and location in the fault report, the unit data terminal evaluates the operating efficiency and performance of the heating unit, analyzes indicators such as thermal efficiency and power generation efficiency, and generates a performance report. Monitoring and maintenance personnel, based on the fault type, fault location, and performance report output by the unit data terminal, determine the maintenance areas of the heating unit and perform fault maintenance.
[0049] In a specific application scenario, when the heating unit is in operation, the data acquisition process continuously collects the unit's operating data while simultaneously controlling the scanning head to perform a wide-area general scan of the equipment surface along a preset global scanning path. At each path node, the scanning head emits active acoustic waves and collects the acoustic response signals modulated or reflected by the equipment casing, recording the corresponding spatial coordinates. After preprocessing, synchronization, convergence, and filtering, standardized monitoring data reflecting the operating status of the heating unit and the acoustic distribution of the equipment surface is obtained. Subsequently, statistical analysis, time-series analysis, and mathematical model analysis are performed on the standardized monitoring data to identify abnormal information. Multi-dimensional data comparison is then conducted using a fault diagnosis database to ultimately output the fault type and precise location. When an anomaly is detected, a fault report is generated and alarms are triggered via sound, visual cues, SMS, or email. Maintenance personnel then perform maintenance on the heating unit based on the fault report.
[0050] This embodiment utilizes a movable scanning head to perform a wide-area survey scan of the heating unit equipment surface, enabling continuous, regionalized surface inspection. This replaces traditional fixed-point measurement methods and reduces blind spots caused by fixed-point sensor placement. By mapping the acoustic response signal to the spatial coordinates of the scanning head, the global acoustic feature distribution of the heating unit equipment surface can be obtained, thus providing a faster and more intuitive reflection of the overall health status and spatial distribution of anomalies. Through a continuous process of data preprocessing, synchronous aggregation, information filtering, trend anomaly identification, fault diagnosis, fault report generation, and alarm maintenance, a standardized fault monitoring process can be established, reducing reliance on manual experience and providing reliable support for condition-based maintenance and predictive maintenance of heating units.
