    The stator cooling water system of a turbine generator must maintain optimal operating conditions to ensure the reliability and safety of the generator. Typically, thermal faults are detected using methods such as shutdown maintenance or temperature difference thresholds, but these methods cannot effectively detect faults in real time while the generator is in operation. To more accurately identify stator thermal faults, this paper proposes a temperature prediction algorithm based on the Transformer architecture. Using the predicted temperatures from multiple measurement points, the future temperature difference is estimated, and a diagnosis model for stator thermal faults is established. To address the issue of limited fault operation data samples, this paper utilizes Gaussian processes with different kernel functions to generate various types of time series, which are then combined with the original data, significantly expanding the training sample space. Finally, experiments are conducted using existing test data. The results indicate that the predictive algorithm proposed in this paper outperforms traditional autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) and long short term memory (LSTM) algorithms. Moreover, the diagnostic model based on this predictive algorithm achieves an accuracy rate of 91.9% in identifying operational states, while also maintaining high precision and recall rates, ensuring low false alarm and missed alarm rates.

    As the distribution network industry evolves towards greener and low-carbon solutions, environmentally friendly gases are progressively substituting traditional SF6 gas as the insulation medium for medium-voltage inflatable cabinets. Given the limitations associated with the insulation efficacy of currently used environmentally friendly gases and the challenges related to the sustainable recycling of epoxy resin insulation components, this paper introduces an environmentally friendly insulation model that utilizes thermoplastic materials and integrated injection molding technology, specifically applied to 12kV dry air insulated inflatable cabinets. Through mechanical simulations, the study confirms that the mechanical properties of the proposed insulation model meet the required standards. Additionally, electric field simulations optimize the insulation model’s structure, effectively reducing the localized maximum electric field intensity and enhancing insulation performance. Finally, the insulation reliability of the environmentally friendly insulation model is substantiated through comprehensive insulation test and partial discharge assessments.

    With the growth of renewable energy and the increase of low carbon demand, alumina industry is facing the challenge of optimizing energy consumption. Targeting industrial production at high renewable energy ratios, it is optimized through electric energy substitution and demand response. In this paper, other green power real-time regulation is taken as the object of demand response, and a multi-objective demand response model of alumina production electricity consumption is established on the basis of guaranteeing that the rate of wind and light abandonment is minimized, and with the goal of satisfying the system economy and guaranteeing the output. The normal boundary intersection (NBI) method and nondominated sorting genetic algorithm Ⅱ (NSGA-Ⅱ) are used to optimize and solve the model. According to the analysis results of actual cases, the NBI algorithm performs better in reducing the electricity cost and the rate of power abandonment, with a cost reduction of 73% and a rate of power abandonment of 16.65 percentage points, compared to 70% and 15.65 percentage points, respectively, for NSGA-Ⅱ.

    This paper proposes a DC distribution network fault location method combining current integral variation trend and temporal convolutional network (TCN)-support vector machine (SVM), to distinguish and locate DC distribution network faults, and lay the foundation for DC distribution network protection. Firstly, the integral sequence of fault current is calculated, and the integral sequence is decomposed by variational mode decomposition (VMD) algorithm. The eigenvalues of the decomposed high frequency intrinsic mode function are used as the input eigenvectors of the combination model of TCN and SVM, and the fault lines are located and the fault types are determined. The simulation results show that the scheme can not only locate the fault line quickly and identify different faults accurately, but also has good adaptability and certain anti-interference ability.
