Results of a Wind Turbine FDI Competition

In this paper some newly published methods for fault detection and isolation developed for a wind turbine benchmark model are tested, compared and evaluated. These methods have been presented as a part of an international competition. The tested methods cover different types of fault detection and isolation methods, which include support vector machines, observer based methods, and auto generated methods. All of these methods show interesting potentials for usage in the wind turbine application, but all with different strong and weak sides in relation to the requirements specified in the proposed benchmark model.
