Description
Summary:The prominent vibration characteristics of amorphous alloy transformer (AMT) make it possible to apply the vibration method for real-time fault monitoring of AMT. Therefore, in order to solve the AMT vibration monitoring problem and enhance the diagnostic efficiency, this study proposes an AMT fault diagnosis model based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) to optimize the parameters of wavelet packet transform (WPT) and support vector machine (SVM).The optimal vibration signal acquisition point is determined by finite element analysis to ensure high signal quality. The PSO algorithm is used to optimize the number of WPT decomposition layers, wavelet basis functions, SVM kernel parameters g and penalty parameters c to enhance the accuracy of feature extraction and classification. Additionally, principal component analysis (PCA) reduces the dimensionality of the redundant frequency band energy after WPT feature extraction, minimizing data redundancy. Overall, the full-process optimization significantly improves AMT fault diagnosis efficiency compared with single-aspect optimization.
