e Energy 2024 S4P5 Knowledge Guided Learning of Temporal Dynamics and its Application to Gas Turbine
Summary
TLDRThis talk explores the concept of knowledge-guided machine learning, with a focus on modeling gas turbines for energy systems. By combining domain knowledge with machine learning, the speaker demonstrates how to create efficient, sustainable models that require less data while improving performance. The innovative approach uses a custom loss function to enforce permissible system states, such as ramps in turbine output, and ensures better predictions even with limited data. The method offers a more sustainable, data-efficient alternative to traditional approaches, making it ideal for modeling complex dynamic systems like gas turbines in energy grids.

Q & A
What is the main focus of the talk?
-The talk focuses on how to apply knowledge-guided machine learning to model complex systems like gas turbines, emphasizing the benefits of smaller, application-specific models for sustainability and efficiency.
How are small, application-specific models more sustainable than larger models?
-Small models are more sustainable because they require less data, converge faster, and are easier to maintain and deploy in real-world applications, making them more resource-efficient.
Why are gas turbines important in energy systems?
-Gas turbines are crucial in energy systems as they serve as backup power sources when renewable energy from wind or solar is insufficient. They are quick to start, flexible in fuel usage, and can operate with low-emission fuels like hydrogen.
What is the challenge of modeling gas turbines traditionally?
-Traditional physical models, such as the Rowan model, are not effective for modeling gas turbines as black-box systems because they require detailed measurements of every component, which isn't feasible with limited input-output data.
How does knowledge-guided machine learning help in modeling gas turbines?
-Knowledge-guided machine learning incorporates domain knowledge (e.g., ramps in turbine outputs) into the loss function, helping the model to learn and predict behaviors more accurately, especially with smaller datasets.
What is the role of loss functions in this approach?
-Loss functions play a critical role by minimizing the error between the predicted and actual outputs while also incorporating additional domain knowledge as constraints, such as permissible system states (e.g., ramps), to guide the model.
What are 'permissible system states' in the context of the talk?
-Permissible system states refer to the expected behaviors or constraints of the system, such as rising, constant, or falling ramps in gas turbine outputs. These states are used to guide the machine learning model and ensure realistic predictions.
Why is the concept of 'minimum as a selector' important in the model?
-The 'minimum as a selector' is crucial because it helps the model select the closest permissible state from multiple alternatives, ensuring that the model behaves in a realistic and constrained way while learning from data.
What were the empirical results of the knowledge-guided approach?
-Empirical results showed that the knowledge-guided machine learning model outperformed a baseline model without any domain knowledge, achieving lower error rates and requiring less data to produce accurate results.
What is the significance of sensitivity analysis when applying domain knowledge?
-Sensitivity analysis is important because it tests how robust the model is when the provided domain knowledge is incorrect or varies slightly. This ensures that the model can still perform well even if the initial knowledge is not perfect.
