DATA MODELING METHOD BASED ON PARTIAL LEAST SQUARE REGRESSION AND APPLICATIO N IN CORRELATION ANALYSIS OF THE STATOR BARS CONDITION PARAMETERS

Objective To investigate v arious data message of the stator bars condition parameters under the condition that only a few samples are available, especially about correlation information between the nondestructive parameters and residual breakdown voltage of the stat or bars. Methods Artificial stator bars is designed to simulat e the generator bars. The partial didcharge( PD) and dielectric loss experiments are performed in order to obtain the nondestructive parameters, and the residua l breakdown voltage acquired by AC damage experiment. In order to eliminate the dimension effect on measurement data, raw data is preprocessed by centered-compr ess. Based on the idea of extracting principal components, a partial least squar e (PLS) method is applied to screen and synthesize correlation information betwe en the nondestructive parameters and residual breakdown voltage easily. Moreover , various data message about condition parameters are also discussed. Re sults Graphical analysis function of PLS is easily to understand vario us data message of the stator bars condition parameters. The analysis Results ar e consistent with result of aging testing. Conclusion The meth od can select and extract PLS components of condition parameters from sample dat a, and the problems of less samples and multicollinearity are solved effectively in regression analysis.
