The operational data of diesel generator engine is two kinds of data. One is interactive the other is non interactive. We can find the fault information from interactive data measured for every sampling time when the changing rate, direction and status of data are investigated in comparition with those of normal status to diagnose the fault of combustion system. The various data values of combustion system for diesel engine are not proportional to load condition. The criterion to decide the level of data value is not absolute but relative to relational data. This study proposes to compose malfunction diagnosis engine using neural networks to decide that level of data value is out of normal status with the data collected from generator engine of the ship using the commercial data mining tool. This paper investigates the real ship's operational data of diesel generator engine and confirms usefulness of fault detecting through simulations for fault detecting.

In the last years, fault problem in power electronics has been more and more investigated both from theoretical and practical point of view. The fault problem can cause equipment failure, data and economical losses. And the analyze system require to ensure fault problem and also rectify failures. The current errors on these faults are applied for identified type of faults. This paper presents technique to detection and identification faults in three-phase voltage source inverter (VSI) by using time-frequency distribution (TFD). TFD capable represent time frequency representation (TFR) in temporal and spectral information. Based on TFR, signal parameters are calculated such as instantaneous average current, instantaneous root mean square current, instantaneous fundamental root mean square current and, instantaneous total current waveform distortion. From on results, the detection of VSI faults could be determined based on characteristic of parameter estimation. And also concluded that the fault detection is capable of identifying the type of inverter fault and can reduce cost maintenance.

대규모 발전소나 화학공정과 같은 다변량 공정은 매우 위험한 환경에서 운전되기 때문에 고장이 발생하면 심각한 인적·물적 손실이 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 시스템의 고장을 사전에 탐지할 수 있는 온라인 모니터링 기술이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 세 가지의 다른 다변량 공정 데이터에 ICA를 적용하여 고장탐지를 수행하였고, PCA와 성능을 비교하였다. ICA 기반의 고장탐지 절차는 크게 오프라인 과정과 온라인 과정으로 나뉜다. 오프라인 과정에서는 시스템이 정상일 때 계측된 데이터를 이용하여 고장판별을 위한 문턱 값을 설정한다. 그리고 온라인 과정에서는 실시간으로 계측되는 질의벡터에 대한 통계량을 계산한 후, 계산된 통계량과 사전에 정의된 문턱 값과 비교하여 고장을 판별한다. 본 논문에서 이용한 세 가지의 다변량 공정 데이터에 실험한 결과, ICA 기반 고장탐지 방법이 시스템의 고장을 사전에 탐지하였고, PCA 보다 우수한 고장탐지 성능을 보여주었다.

It is not easy to monitor and identify all engine faults and conditions using conventional fault detection approaches like the GPA (Gas Path Analysis) method due to the nature and complexity of the faults. This study therefore focuses on a model based diagnostic method using Neural Network algorithms proposed for fault detection on a turbo shaft engine (PW 206C) selected as the power plant for a tilt rotor type unmanned aerial vehicle (Smart UAV). The model based diagnosis should be performed by a precise performance model. However component maps for the performance model were not provided by the engine manufacturer. Therefore they were generated by a new component map generation method, namely hybrid method using system identification and genetic algorithms that identifies inversely component characteristics from limited performance deck data provided by the engine manufacturer. Performance simulations at different operating conditions were performed on the PW206C turbo shaft engine using SIMULINK. In order to train the proposed BPNN (Back Propagation Neural Network), performance data sets obtained from performance analysis results using various implanted component degradations were used. The trained NN system could reasonably detect the faulted components including the fault pattern and quantity of the study engine at various operating conditions.

In general many engineers can diagnose the fault condition using the abnormal ones among data monitored from a diesel engine, but they don't need the system modelling or identification for the work. They check the abnormal data and the relationship and then catch the fault condition of the engine. This paper proposes the construction of a fault diagnosis engine through malfunction data gained from the data fault detection system of neural networks for diesel generator engine, and the rule inference method to induce the rule for fuzzy inference from the malfunction data of diesel engine like a site engineer with a fuzzy system. The proposed fault diagnosis system is constructed in the sense of the Malfunction Diagnosis Engine(MDE) and Hierarchy of Malfunction Hypotheses(HMH). The system is concerned with the rule reduction method of knowledge base for related data among the various interactive data.

화학공정, 기계공정, 발전소와 같은 다변량 공정은 여러 설비들이 복잡하게 연결되어 운영되기 때문에 특정 시스템에 고장이 발생하면 전체 공정에 치명적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 또한, 공정 데이터는 불안정한 환경에서 계측되므로, 데이터에 이상치가 포함될 가능성이 크다. 따라서 계측된 데이터의 이상치를 제거하고 시스템의 고장을 사전에 탐지할 수 있는 모니터링 기술이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 여러 종류의 공정에서 고장탐지를 수행하기 위해 다이나믹 공정과 다변량 공정 모델에서 생성된 데이터를 이용하였다. 다이나믹 공정은 자기회귀 특성을 가지는 공정을 모델링한 것이고 다변량 공정은 특정 센서의 고장이 발생했을 때 상황을 묘사한 공정이다. 본 논문에서는 두 공정에서 생성된 데이터에 마할라노비스 거리를 이용하여 데이터에 포함된 이상치를 제거한 후, 독립성분분석을 적용하여 고장탐지를 수행하였다. 제안된 방법의 성능 비교를 위해 기존의 단일모델 ICA와 성능을 비교하였다. 실험결과, 제안된 방법이 기존의 ICA 보다 다이나믹 공정의 바이어스 데이터의 경우에 0.84%p, 드리프트 데이터의 경우 6.82%p 성능이 개선되었다. 다변량 공정의 경우 3.78%p 성능이 개선되었으므로, 제안된 방법이 우수한 고장탐지 성능을 보였다.

To train deep learning algorithms, a sufficient number of data are required. However, in most engineering systems, the acquisition of fault data is difficult or sometimes not feasible, while normal data are secured. The dearth of data is one of the major challenges to developing deep learning models, and fault diagnosis in particular cannot be made in the absence of fault data. With this context, this paper proposes an anomaly detection methodology for rotating machines using only normal data with self-labeling. Since only normal data are used for anomaly detection, a self-labeling method is used to generate a new labeled dataset. The overall procedure includes the following three steps: (1) transformation of normal data to self-labeled data based on a pretext task, (2) training the convolutional neural networks (CNN), and (3) anomaly detection using defined anomaly score based on the softmax output of the trained CNN. The softmax value of the abnormal sample shows different behavior from the normal softmax values. To verify the proposed method, four case studies were conducted, on the Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) bearing dataset, IEEE PHM 2012 data challenge dataset, PHMAP 2021 data challenge dataset, and laboratory bearing testbed; and the results were compared to those of existing machine learning and deep learning methods. The results showed that the proposed algorithm could detect faults in the bearing testbed and compressor with over 99.7% accuracy. In particular, it was possible to detect not only bearing faults but also structural faults such as unbalance and belt looseness with very high accuracy. Compared with the existing GAN, the autoencoder-based anomaly detection algorithm, the proposed method showed high anomaly detection performance.

In complex and large-scale industries, properly designed fault detection and identification (FDI) systems considerably improve safety, reliability and availability of target processes. In thermal power plants (TPPs), generating units operate under very dangerous conditions; system failures can cause severe loss of life and property. In this paper, we propose a bagged auto-associative kernel regression (AAKR)-based FDI approach for steam boilers in TPPs. AAKR estimates new query vectors by online local modeling, and is suitable for TPPs operating under various load levels. By combining the bagging method, more stable and reliable estimations can be achieved, since the effects of random fluctuations decrease because of ensemble averaging. To validate performance, the proposed method and comparison methods (i.e., a clustering-based method and principal component analysis) are applied to failure data due to water wall tube leakage gathered from a 250 MW coal-fired TPP. Experimental results show that the proposed method fulfills reasonable false alarm rates and, at the same time, achieves better fault detection performance than the comparison methods. After performing fault detection, contribution analysis is carried out to identify fault variables; this helps operators to confirm the types of faults and efficiently take preventive actions.
