  • Patent number: 11899075
    Abstract: A device for determining an error probability value for a transformer component, including a signal input interface, a processor unit, and a storage unit, wherein the signal input interface is configured for direct or indirect coupling to a measurement system for a power transformer, the measurement system having multiple sensors that are each designed to record a physical and/or chemical property of the power transformer, the power transformer having multiple transformer components, and each sensor being coupled to at least one of the transformer components of the power transformer by way of a respective related direct or indirect connection, wherein the physical and/or chemical property of the power transformer recorded by the respective sensor is influenced by at least one of the transformer components, wherein the signal input interface is configured to receive a status signal of the measurement system, the status signal representing multiple, different status variables.

  • Publication number: 20230305080
    Abstract: A model of a power transformer describes a transfer behavior for input data into output data as a function of model parameters. In successive time windows, measurement dataset is received from first and second sensors of the power transformer. The model parameters are optimized by executing, for each of the time windows, the following group of steps a) to c), repeatedly: a) determining the output of the model using the input data defined by first sensor data, for the first execution of predefined parameters are used; b) determining a target value, which includes at least one squared error, weighted by a first weighting factor, the squared error is between the second sensor data from the measurement dataset assigned to the given time window and a previously determined output data, and c) determining optimization parameters as new model parameters based on the target value.
