Research on NOFRF Entropy-Based Detection Method for Early Damage of Pillar Porcelain Insulator

الملخص EN

The pillar porcelain insulator is an important protection device that is related to the safety of the entire power grid.

Small damage of it may even cause a disaster.

Nonlinear output frequency response functions (NOFRFs) can well reflect the nonlinear characteristics of early damage in the system.

This paper uses the NOFRF entropy-based harmonic excitation detection method to detect the damage of the structure.

Its effect has been verified by using metal specimens.

Then, the pulse hammer detection and harmonic detection are carried out to detect the early-stage damage of the pillar porcelain insulator, and they achieve a good result, which verifies that the harmonic detection method can detect the early-stage damage in the pillar porcelain insulator as well.

In addition, the orthogonal test of the simulated breathing crack model is used to search the greatest influence of the parameters of crack on the detection index.

Through the orthogonal analysis, the results show that among the lengths, positions, and angles of the crack, the length of crack is the main factor that affects the detection index.
