Vibration Fault Detection in Wind Turbines Based on Normal Behaviour Models without Feature Engineering

Frequency Based Fault Detection in Wind Turbines

In order to obtain lower cost of energy for wind turbines fault detection and accommodation is important. Expensive condition monitoring systems are often used to monitor the condition of rotating and vibrating system parts. One example is the gearbox in a wind turbine. This system is operated in parallel to the control system, using different computers and additional often expensive sensors. I...

An SVM-Based Solution for Fault Detection in Wind Turbines

Research into fault diagnosis in machines with a wide range of variable loads and speeds, such as wind turbines, is of great industrial interest. Analysis of the power signals emitted by wind turbines for the diagnosis of mechanical faults in their mechanical transmission chain is insufficient. A successful diagnosis requires the inclusion of accelerometers to evaluate vibrations. This work pre...

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...

Fault Behavior of Wind Turbines

Synchronous generators have always been the dominant generation type in the grid. This fact affected both planning and operation of power systems. With the fast increase of wind power share in the grid in the last decade, the situation is changing. In some countries wind power represents already a consistent amount of the total generation. Wind turbines can be classified as non-synchronous gene...
