Diagnosis Method

With the development of information theory and image analysis theory, the studies on fault diagnosis methods based on image processing have become a hot spot in the recent years in the field of fault diagnosis. The gearbox of wind turbine generator is a fault-prone subassembly. Its time frequency of vibration signals contains abundant status information, so this paper proposes a fault diagnosis method based on time-frequency image characteristic extraction and artificial immune algorithm. Firstly, obtain the time-frequency image using wavelet transform based on threshold denoising. Secondly, acquire time-frequency image characteristics by means of Hu invariant moment and correlation fusion gray-level co-occurrence matrix of characteristic value, thus, to extract the fault information of the gearing of wind turbine generator. Lastly, diagnose the fault type using the improved actual-value negative selection algorithm. The application of this method in the gear fault diagnosis on the test bed of wind turbine step-up gearbox proves that it is effective in the improvement of diagnosis accuracy.

Iterative Filtering

For the unsteady characteristics of a fault vibration signal from a wind turbine rolling bearing, a bearing fault diagnosis method based on adaptive local iterative filtering and approximate entropy is proposed. The adaptive local iterative filtering method is used to decompose original vibration signals into a finite number of stationary components. The components which comprise major fault information are selected for further analysis. The approximate entropy of the selected components is calculated as a fault feature value and input to a fault classifier. The classifier is based on the nearest neighbor algorithm. The vibration signals from a spherical roller bearing on a wind turbine in its normal state, with an outer race fault, an inner race fault and a roller fault are analyzed. The results show that the proposed method can accurately and efficiently identify the fault modes present in the rolling bearings of a wind turbine.

Bearing Fault Diagnosis

Vibration signal was a carrier of fault features of the wind turbine transmission system, it can reflect most of the fault information of the wind turbine transmission system. According to the frequency domain features of the roller bearing fault, wavelet packet transform for feature extraction was proposed as the characteristics of wind turbines in the presence of a large number of transient and non-stationary signals. The characteristics of wavelet packet was analyzed, combined with the wind turbines in the rolling bearing fault characteristic vibration extraction methods, the rolling bearing fault diagnosis was realized through the wavelet packet decomposition and reconstruction, the procedure was given. The simulation result shows that this application can reflect relationship of the failure characteristics and frequency domain feature vectors, also the nonlinear mapping ability of neural networks was played and the fault diagnosis capability enhanced.
