Fault evolution monitoring of an in-service wind turbine DFIG using Windowed Scalogram Difference

The rapid evolution of wind energy in reducing CO2 emissions worldwide is undeniable, which is, in fact, expected to continue or even increase its impressive yearly capacity growth. In this regard, optimizing operations and maintenance of wind turbines (WTs) and farms is considered to be one of the...

description The rapid evolution of wind energy in reducing CO2 emissions worldwide is undeniable, which is, in fact, expected to continue or even increase its impressive yearly capacity growth.

The electric generator is one of the major contributors to WT failure rates and downtime, and doubly-fed induction generators (DFIGs) are the dominant technology in variable-speed WTs.
