Abstract
This study presents a digital twin (DT) based wind turbine bearing fault diagnosis approach to address the issues of insufficient fault sample size and inaccurate diagnosis. To assist in diagnosing bearing faults in wind turbines, a DT system was built. Bearing vibration signal enhancement processing, which is based on the Hilbert-Huang transform, is used to improve the data samples of vibration signals and decrease the noise in these signals. In order to diagnose bearing defects in wind turbines, a convolutional neural network model was trained and tested using data-enhanced samples. The experimental results showed that the suggested method is feasible and effective, increased the stability and accuracy of defect diagnosis in wind turbine bearings, and solved the problem of data augmentation in one-dimensional vibration signals.
