Abstract

It is an important but challenging work to develop novel fault diagnosis (FD) methods of offshore wind turbines (WTs) for their maintenance cost that accounts for 20%–35% of the total lifecycle cost. In FD of offshore WTs, there are two common problems: lack of high-quality label data and ignoring fault severity. In this study, we apply the prototypical networks in few-short learning to cope with a small high-quality label data, and adopt the ordinal regression method to consider fault severity. To sum up, we develop a novel ordinal classification prototypical networks (OCPN) model by introducing ordinal regression into prototypical networks, which is suitable for the FD of offshore WTs. The real case data gathered by an enterprise engaging in equipment condition monitoring and fault diagnosis in China is used to verify OCPN’s effectiveness. The experimental results show that the OCPN model outperforms several competing models in terms of better multi-classification performance. In practical engineering applications, the OCPN model is flexible for diagnostic experts to consider the priority of fault levels by introducing decision preference into the loss function.
