Study on Temperature Cascade ELM Inversion Method for 110 kV Single-Core Cable Intermediate Joints.

The accurate calculation of the hotspot temperature of the cable intermediate joint can effectively guarantee the safe operation of the transmission and distribution network. This paper addresses the limitations of the current method of estimating hotspot temperature solely from surface temperature measurements. Specifically, we focus on a 110 kV single-core cable as our subject of study. We started by establishing a simulation model for the temperature field at the intermediate joint to generate data samples. Subsequently, the NCA (neighborhood component analysis) algorithm was employed to select the optimal measurement points on the cable's surface. This allowed determination of the quantity and location of characteristic points. Finally, we developed a cascading inversion model, which consists of a radial inversion model and an axial inversion model, based on the extreme learning machine algorithm. The example results show that the mean squared error of hotspot temperature obtained by cascade inversion and direct inversion is 6.95 and 24.71, respectively, indicating that cascade inversion can effectively improve the inversion accuracy.
