Simultaneous Fault Detection and Sensor Selection for Condition Monitoring of Wind Turbines

Simultaneous Fault Detection and Sensor Selection for Condition Monitoring of Wind Turbines

Abstract: Data collected from the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system are used widely in wind farms to obtain operation and performance information about wind turbines. The paper presents a three-way model by means of parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) for wind turbine fault detection and sensor selection, and evaluates the method with SCADA data obtained from an operational...

Online Nonintrusive Condition Monitoring and Fault Detection for Wind Turbines

Sensor Fault Diagnosis of Wind Turbines for Fault Tolerant

This paper aims at the blade root moment sensor fault detection and isolation issue. The underlying problem is crucial to the successful application of the individual pitch control system which plays a key role for reducing the blade loads of large offshore wind turbines. In this paper, a wind turbine model is built based on the closed loop identification technique, where the wind dynamics is i...

Fault Detection in Wind Turbines Using Mems Sensor

Mohamed Hassan. S, Mohan Kumar. S, Muthuramalingam. R, Ms. Hemalatha. R ABSTRACT Wind energy is fast-growing sustainable energy technology and wind turbines continue to be deployed in several parts of the world driven by the need for more efficient energy harvesting, the size of the wind turbines has increased over the years (several MW of rated power and over 100m in rotor diameter) for both o...

Quantification of Condition Monitoring Benefit for Offshore Wind Turbines

Condition monitoring (CM) systems are increasingly installed in wind turbines with the goal of providing component-specific information to wind farm operators, theoretically increasing equipment availability via maintenance and operating actions based on this information. In the offshore case, economic benefits of CM systems are often assumed to be substantial, as compared with experience of on...
