Abstract

The transformation of manufacturing industry to green manufacturing is one of the important tasks to achieve the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals, which needs to improve the use efficiency of unit carbon emission. In order to describe the processing state in real time and improve the accuracy of carbon emission prediction, a dynamic prediction and simulation model of carbon efficiency based on digital twin was proposed. First, the dynamic characteristics of carbon emission during hobbing process was analyzed, and three carbon efficiency targets were defined to assess carbon emissions from processing processes. Then, a dynamic prediction and simulation model of carbon emissions was constructed based on convolutional neural network and dynamic discrete event system specification. On this basis, the framework of the carbon efficiency digital twin (CEDT) of the hobbing process was built, and the dynamic prediction and simulation models were integrated into CEDT as virtual models. The application in hobbing process showed that the presented model has higher accuracy in carbon emission prediction. The root-mean-square error, mean absolute error, and mean absolute percentage error of the real-time power prediction were reduced by 43.98%, 34.55%, and 30.67% on average, compared with the traditional method. Meanwhile, the validity of CEDT was verified and the effect of dynamic parameters on carbon efficiency was discussed.
