description Abstract The reversible pump‐turbine plays an important role in hydropower stations, but pressure pulsation during their operation affects their performance and lifespan. Accurate prediction of pressure pulsation signals can provide an important basis for energy planning and stable operation of pumped storage units, thereby promoting sustainable development of the environment. This study introduces an optimization method that combines long short‐term memory (LSTM) and variable mode decomposition (VMD) to enhance the prediction accuracy of pressure pulsation signals. First, by decomposing the pressure pulsation signal into multiple relatively stable subsequence components using VMD, the characteristics of the original signal become more distinct. Subsequently, individual LSTM‐based time series prediction models were constructed for each modal function, and the hyperparameters related to subsequence were optimized using the sparrow search algorithm. To validate the efficacy of the proposed approach, this paper conducted experiments using pressure pulsation signals of a pump‐turbine obtained through numerical simulation. The experimental data was divided into training and testing sets, with the former used to train the LSTM model and the latter used for validation. The experimental results show that the optimized VMD with an optimized LSTM method can effectively improve the prediction accuracy of pressure pulsation signals in reversible pump‐turbine.
