Among renewable energy sources, wind energy is regarded as one of the fastest-growing segments, which plays a key role in enhancing environmental quality. Wind turbines are generally located in remote and harsh environments. Bearings are a crucial component in wind turbines, and their failure is one of the most frequent reasons for system breakdown. Wind turbine bearing faults are usually very localized during their early stages which is precisely when they need to be detected. Hence, the early diagnosis of bearing faults holds paramount practical significance. In order to solve the problem of weak pulses being masked by noise in early failure signals of rolling element bearings, a novel fault diagnosis method is proposed based on the combination of complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN) and an improved TFR demodulation method. Initially, the decomposition of vibration signals using CEEMDAN is carried out to obtain several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Subsequently, a novel KC indicator that combines kurtosis and the correlation function is designed to select the effective components for signal reconstruction. Finally, an innovative approach based on the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) for multi-scale demodulation analysis in the domain of time–frequency representation (TFR) is also introduced to extract the envelope spectrum. Further fault diagnosis can be achieved by the identification of the fault characteristic frequency (FCF). This study focuses on the theoretical exploration of bearing faults diagnosis algorithms, employing modeling and simulation techniques. The effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method are validated through the analysis of simulated signals and experimental signals provided by the Center for Intelligent Maintenance Systems (IMS) of the University of Cincinnati and the Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) Bearing Data Center. The method demonstrates the capability to identify various types of bearing faults, including outer race and inner race faults, with a high degree of computational efficiency. Comparative analysis indicates a significant enhancement in fault diagnostic performance when compared to existing methods. This research contributes to the advancement of effective bearing fault diagnosis methodologies for wind turbines, thereby ensuring their reliable operation. |
