Experimental design and data analysis and optimization of mechanical condition diagnosis for transformer sets

Abstract The typical power transformer diagnosis approach is imprecise and unstable. A support vector machine classification algorithm is proposed, by designing an algorithm program that can improve the accuracy and speed of energy transformer diagnosis, the vibration signals of the surface twisting in different states are extracted by wavelet packet energy spectrum signal processing method, it is verified that the curve similarity between the vibration simulation model and the measured data is greater than 0.98, proving the simulation model’s validity. The calculation technique of online short circuit inductance is developed from the equivalent transformer model, and the variation error of simulation results is less than 0.05% when compared to the real transformer characteristics. The suggested state diagnostic technique successfully compensates for the drawbacks of the reactance method, which is incapable of detecting and judging the slightly loose or faulty winding. The method’s accuracy and superiority, as well as the practicability of the state diagnosis system, are demonstrated.
