Abstract

Condition monitoring, fault diagnosis, and scheduled maintenance of wind turbines (WTs) are becoming a necessity to maximize their economic benefits and reduce their downtime. One of the critical faults in WTs is inter-turn short-circuit faults (ITSCF) in their rotating machines. Being dependent on higher wind speeds, offshore wind farms are more efficient than onshore ones, yet at the cost of higher ITSCF, more maintenance requirements, and difficulty in accessibility. Thus, they require an efficient non-contact fault diagnosis technique to enable operators to inspect all WT components with minimal contact. Among existing fault detection technologies, Infrared thermography (IRT) is considered as a non-invasive and non-destructive anomaly detection technique based on capturing thermal images by IR cameras, making it suitable for offshore harsh environments. Meanwhile, deep learning (DL) fault diagnosis approaches have proven to be promising intelligent tools with minimum human labor. This paper proposes an efficient and robust ensemble DL-based diagnosis method for ITSCF detection in induction rotating machines, besides identifying fault locations and short-circuit severity. The proposed technique is quite convenient for early diagnosis of offshore WT generator faults since it depends on IRT technology. Compared to previous studies, the proposed approach outperforms its counterparts since it integrates eight DL models, rather than using a single model, thus merging all their structural benefits altogether. Moreover, a cascaded feature fusion and selection procedure is introduced. First, the deep features extracted from the DL models are fused, then the most influential features are selected using a hybrid feature selection scheme. Thus, the classification accuracy is enhanced to reach 100% and meanwhile, the input features’ size to the classifier is reduced, decreasing classification complexity and training time. Finally, no clustering or segmentation phases are required in the proposed technique, resulting in a further decrease in the diagnosis time and computation burden.
