Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power equipment monitoring technology, specifically a power equipment operation status monitoring system based on digital twins. Background Technology
[0002] With the advancement of smart grid construction, the reliability and operating efficiency of power equipment have become key indicators. Traditional monitoring methods have the following pain points: they rely on manual inspections, which are not real-time and make it difficult to detect early hidden dangers; single-point data collection cannot reflect the overall status of power equipment, making fault location difficult; they lack dynamic simulation capabilities and cannot predict the performance changes of power equipment under different operating conditions; and the phenomenon of data silos is serious, making it difficult to integrate and analyze multi-source heterogeneous data. Statistics show that some power outages are caused by lagging power equipment status monitoring. The operation of power equipment is affected by equipment operating parameters and mechanical characteristic parameters. Abnormalities in these parameters can lead to power equipment failures. Constructing a power equipment monitoring system that integrates digital twin technology to accurately capture parameter changes and achieve full-dimensional digital mapping of power equipment status is a problem we need to solve. This will overcome the monitoring lag caused by complex parameter interactions and improve the reliability of the power grid. Therefore, we are now providing a power equipment operation status monitoring system based on digital twin technology. Summary of the Invention
