Wind Turbine Fault Detection through Principal Component Analysis and Statistical Hypothesis Testing

This paper addresses the problem of online fault detection of an advanced wind turbine benchmark under actuators (pitch and torque) and sensors (pitch angle measurement) faults of different type: fixed value, gain factor, offset and changed dynamics. The fault detection scheme starts by computing th...
