Multi-Physical Time- and Frequency-Domain Fault Detection and Isolation Technique for Power-Electronic Converters in DFIG Wind Turbines Vrije Universiteit Brussel
A multi-physical time- and frequency-domain fault detection and isolation (FDI) method for power-electronic converters (PECs) of wind turbines is presented in this paper, with focus on open-circuit faults and the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) drivetrain topology. In order to reduce the risk of false alarms, the proposed approach combines fault indicators based on time- and frequency-domain analysis of the electrical signals, as well as ...
