Abstract: Based on the basic concepts and connotations of digital twin, this paper analyzes the application advantages of digital twin technology in coal mine power grid. The operation management of the coal mine power grid is assisted by two means of synchronous entity operation status and digital simulation operation. The technology has the characteristics of data-driven, real-time update and synchronous feedback. The basic framework of the digital twin system of the coal mine power grid is proposed. The framework is composed of physical entity layer, digital twin model layer, user service management layer and data exchange layer. The operation mode of the digital twin system of the coal mine power grid is explored from two aspects of the physical entity and the digital twin model. This paper introduces the key technologies for establishing the digital twin system of the coal mine power grid. The technologies include digital twin model construction of coal mine power grid, intelligent data acquisition, intelligent communication based on 5G, digital twin intelligent database, and digital twin equipment intelligent management platform. The application scenarios of digital twin technology in the coal mine power grid are proposed. The scenarios include the condition evaluation of underground electrical equipment, fault location and protection of the coal mine power grid, intelligent monitoring of the coal mine power grid and intelligent inspection of underground lines. The digital twin technology is applied to the coal mine power grid to carry out dynamic simulation modeling on the state and operation of the coal mine power grid. On the one hand, the higher operation requirement of the current large-scale coal mine power grid relative to the ground power grid can be met. The safety of coal mine production can be guaranteed. On the other hand, the intelligent process of the coal mine power grid can be promoted. The efficient and reasonable utilization of data resources can be realized.
