As an important part of wind turbine health monitoring and management
the identification of operating condition is often affected by uncertainty information and high-speed real-time data streams
which causes it difficult to carry out a health assessment effectively. In this context
this paper proposes a real-time health assessment method based on Spark streaming
First
the big data analysis technology is used to realize the spatial division of wind turbine operating condition. And then
taking into consideration the uncertainty of monitoring information
the Gaussian cloud model and Gaussian cloud transformation-based assessment model is trained according to the historical data of supervisory control and data acquisition(SCADA). In this process
the health index is introduced and can be viewed as an indicator of wind turbines health assessment. Finally
the method is applied in order to assess the health condition of a 1. 5 MW wind turbine located in north of China. Results show that the method can monitor the changing of the health of wind turbines and the accuracy improves compared with the traditional method.
