Abstract
Very limited studies have forecasted the gas concentration and faults of high voltage direct current (HVDC) converter transformers. In this study, a hybrid algorithm consisting seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average-convolutional neural network-gated recurrent unit (SARIMA-CNN-GRU) was proposed to forecast the seven gas concentrations, i.e., hydrogen (H <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> ), methane (CH <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">4</sub> ), ethane (C <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> H <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">6</sub> ), ethylene (C <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> H <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">4</sub> ), acetylene (C <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> H <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> ), carbon-dioxide (CO <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> ) and carbon monoxide (CO). Moreover, extreme gradient boost (XGBoost), adaptive boosting (AdaBoost), and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) were utilized to predict the fault inside the HVDC converter transformer. Two types of datasets collected from different sources were used to train the regression and classification models. The performance of the regression model was evaluated by root mean squared error and mean absolute error, whereas the performance of the classification model was evaluated by accuracy, precision, and recall. Finally, a comparative analysis was conducted to showcase the superiority of the proposed methodology.
