Application and Expectation of Bionic Olfactory Sensing Technology in Power Equipment State Detection

The safe operation of electrical equipment is very important to the stability of power system. In recent years, bionic sensing technology is a hot research topic at home and abroad. Bionic olfactory sensing technology has been successfully applied to food inspection, quarantine, search and rescue and other fields. The technology can also be used to detect defects or faults of electrical equipment, electrical equipment by detecting metal conductors and gas, liquid or solid insulation medium specific odor molecules emitted, and then identify defects or faults of equipment, and can be combined with visual and auditory diagnostic analysis. This paper first summarizes the development process of bionic olfactory sensing technology, expounds the principle, technical characteristics and research progress of three generations of bionic olfactory sensing technology, and discusses its application scenarios and development direction. Secondly, from the perspective of fault identification of gas, liquid and solid insulation media, the application of bionic olfactory sensing technology in the field of power equipment condition detection is studied, and their advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. Finally, combined with the re-search and application status of electrical equipment condition detection technology, the development direction and research prospect of bionic olfactory sensing technology in power equipment condition detection are pro-posed.
