Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of marine electrical reliability and condition monitoring technology, and in particular to a method and system for predicting the lifespan of marine power distribution connection points coupled with fog condensation vibration. Background Technology
[0002] Shipboard electrical distribution systems contain numerous conductive connection points, such as busbar connections in main and emergency distribution boards, circuit breaker input / output connections, cable terminal connections, and grounding busbar connections. These connections are exposed to high salt spray, high humidity, and continuous vibration environments, resulting in significant fluctuations in electrical and thermal loads. The connection interfaces are prone to degradation phenomena such as salt deposition, condensation, accelerated corrosion, fretting wear, decreased clamping force, and increased contact resistance. Ultimately, this leads to abnormal localized temperature rises, decreased power supply reliability, and even failure. Once contact deterioration occurs at these connection points, contact resistance increases, localized temperature rises rise, and consequently, conductor erosion, insulation aging, increased voltage drop, and protection malfunctions. In severe cases, it can even cause power outages, shutdowns, and electrical fires.
[0003] Analysis revealed that the typical failure process of ship electrical connection points is not a simple superposition of salt spray, damp heat, and vibration, but rather exhibits a distinct coupled chain characteristic: salt spray deposits on the connection point surface, forming a salt load; when the surface temperature of the connection point is lower than the ambient dew point temperature, condensation occurs on the surface; the condensation dissolves the deposited salt, forming a conductive electrolyte film; under vibration, the contact interface undergoes fretting, leading to periodic rupture of the corrosion film and oxide film; fresh metal is continuously exposed, and corrosion and wear mutually promote each other; contact resistance increases, and heat generation intensifies; the temperature rise further promotes stress relaxation, decreases clamping force, and damp heat effects; ultimately forming a positive feedback degradation process of "corrosion—wear—heat generation—loosening".
[0004] In existing technologies, condition assessment and lifespan prediction for power distribution connection points or electrical equipment generally employ manual inspection or threshold alarm schemes, single-factor environmental lifespan assessment schemes, single-parameter online monitoring schemes, and purely data-driven prediction schemes. Existing technologies have the following main shortcomings when conducting condition assessment and lifespan prediction for ship power distribution connection points: Single-factor analysis ignores coupling effects: Existing solutions mostly consider the effects of humidity, salt spray or vibration alone, failing to truly reflect the coupled degradation process of salt spray deposition, condensation triggering and vibration micro-motion in the ship environment, resulting in a large deviation between the evaluation results and the actual situation.
[0005] Inaccurate condensation detection: Ambient humidity is often used as a substitute for condensation status, which makes it impossible to accurately identify the timing of condensation and duration of wetting when the surface temperature of the connection point is lower than the dew point, and makes it difficult to assess its triggering effect on corrosion degradation.
[0006] Unquantified salt deposition: The lack of effective quantification of the actual salt deposition on the surface of the connection point makes it impossible to distinguish the differences in the intensity of salt spray under different ship types, compartments and ventilation conditions, resulting in a lack of specificity in the life model.
[0007] The characterization of vibration effects is coarse: degradation is evaluated based solely on vibration amplitude, failing to reveal the microscopic mechanisms such as fretting wear at the contact interface, corrosion film rupture, and clamping force attenuation caused by vibration.
[0008] Lack of remaining life prediction: Most technologies remain at the post-event stage of temperature rise or resistance over-limit alarms, and cannot provide health status trends and remaining life predictions, making it difficult to meet the needs of predictive maintenance and window-based maintenance for ships.
[0009] Lack of dynamic correction mechanism: Fixed models cannot be dynamically corrected by combining online operating state parameters such as contact resistance and temperature rise, resulting in insufficient adaptability and robustness of predictions under different operating conditions.
[0010] Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a life prediction method for ship power distribution connection points to address the problems of low accuracy in life assessment, insufficient prediction lead time, and poor maintenance planning in the complex service environment of ships.

The state-space model is used to correct the cumulative damage and state parameters based on the equivalent contact resistance and equivalent temperature rise. A health index is then calculated based on the corrected state parameters, including: Define the state parameters in the state-space model, and use the state-space model to correct the cumulative damage and state parameters based on the equivalent contact resistance and equivalent temperature rise, as follows: The state vector in the state-space model is defined as follows:

Detailed Implementation

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0061] This embodiment provides a method for predicting the lifespan of ship power distribution connection points coupled by fog condensation and vibration, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes: S1: Collect multi-source operating data for the target power distribution connection point. The multi-source operating data includes ambient temperature, ambient relative humidity, connection point surface temperature, connection point operating temperature, salt deposition rate, surface salt load, vibration signal, clamping force, current, and voltage drop across the connection point.

[0062] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the degradation of shipboard electrical connection points is the result of the coupled effects of three factors: salt spray, temperature and humidity fluctuations, and mechanical vibration. Salt spray ingress creates a salt load on the connection point surface, while temperature and humidity fluctuations cause surface condensation. Together, these factors lead to salt dissolution, conductive film formation, and the initiation of electrochemical corrosion. Continuous mechanical vibration causes micro-displacement of the contact interface. Combined with electrochemical corrosion, the corrosion film / oxide film repeatedly ruptures, exposing fresh metal as new grains, ultimately leading to continuous deterioration of the contact interface. This deterioration causes increased contact resistance, increased local temperature rise, and weakened clamping force / aggravated loosening, accelerating degradation until failure. Furthermore, the temperature rise and loosening form a positive feedback loop, further amplifying condensation sensitivity and micro-motion degradation. Therefore, this invention collects data on ambient temperature and humidity, surface temperature, salt deposition or surface salt load, vibration, current, and voltage drop. Based on dew point temperature and surface temperature, it identifies condensation events, calculates cumulative salt load and vibration fretting factor, and establishes a damage evolution model including corrosion damage, vibration fretting damage, and coupled-enhanced damage. It then uses online contact resistance and equivalent temperature rise for condition correction, outputting a health index, remaining lifespan, risk level, and maintenance warning information.

Voltage sampling terminals are set on both sides of the contact interface at the power distribution connection point, and the voltage drop at the connection point is obtained by the four-terminal method to reduce the influence of the conductor's resistance on the measurement results.

The method for predicting the lifespan of ship power distribution connection points based on fog condensation vibration coupling according to claim 1, characterized in that, Based on the aforementioned health index, the corrected cumulative damage amount, and future operating conditions, the remaining lifespan of the power distribution connection points is predicted, including: Obtain future operating conditions, which refer to information that describes the expected current load, ambient temperature, relative humidity, salt deposition rate and vibration level of the power distribution connection point in the future time period, obtained by extrapolating from the historical operating condition database, the current voyage operation plan or recent operating condition trends. At the current moment, the corrected cumulative damage, corrected salt load, and corrected clamping force are used as the initial state. Combined with the current load, ambient temperature, relative humidity, salt deposition rate, and vibration level in future operating conditions, the cumulative damage and health index at each future moment are recursively calculated, and the remaining life is calculated when the end of life is reached. The moment when any one of the failure thresholds—contact resistance, equivalent temperature rise, clamping force, number of intermittent abnormalities, health index, or cumulative damage—is first met is taken as the end of the service life. The formula is as follows: When any of the calculated contact resistance, equivalent temperature rise, clamping force, number of intermittent abnormalities, cumulative damage, or health index satisfies the life-end time formula, the time difference between the current moment and that life-end time is calculated, which is the remaining life, and the formula is as follows: in, To predict the time when the end of life is reached.
10. A system for predicting the lifespan of ship power distribution connection points using the fog condensation vibration coupling method described in claim 1, characterized in that, include: The data acquisition module is used to collect multi-source operating data for the target power distribution connection point. The multi-source operating data includes ambient temperature, ambient relative humidity, connection point surface temperature, connection point operating temperature, salt deposition rate, surface salt load, vibration signal, clamping force, current, and voltage drop across the connection point. The data preprocessing module is used to preprocess the collected data, calculate the equivalent contact resistance based on the current and the voltage drop, and calculate the equivalent temperature rise based on the operating temperature of the connection point and the ambient temperature. The factor calculation module is used to calculate the wetting factor, salt load factor, and vibration micro-motion factor based on preprocessed multi-source operating data. The coupled damage modeling module defines a current load factor and a temperature acceleration factor. Based on the wetting factor, the salt load factor, the vibration fretting factor, the current load factor, and the temperature acceleration factor, a coupled damage evolution model is established to obtain the cumulative damage amount. The model formula corresponding to the coupled damage evolution model includes a corrosion damage term, a vibration fretting damage term, and a salt spray-condensation-vibration coupled enhanced damage term. The state correction module is used to correct the cumulative damage amount and predefined state parameters based on the equivalent contact resistance and equivalent temperature rise using a state space model, and to calculate the health index based on the corrected state parameters. The lifespan prediction and early warning module is used to predict the remaining lifespan of the power distribution connection point based on the health index, the corrected cumulative damage amount, and future operating conditions, and output early warning information.
