| Summary: | To meet the demands for real-time and accurate fault warning of wind turbine gear transmission systems, this study proposes an innovative intelligent warning method based on the integration of digital twin and multi-source data fusion. A digital twin system architecture is developed, comprising a high-precision geometric model and a dynamic mechanism model, enabling real-time interaction and data fusion between the physical transmission system and its virtual model. At the algorithmic level, a CNN-LSTM-Attention fault prediction model is proposed, which innovatively integrates the spatial feature extraction capabilities of a convolutional neural network (CNN), the temporal modeling advantages of long short-term memory (LSTM), and the key information-focusing characteristics of an attention mechanism. Experimental validation shows that this model outperforms traditional methods in prediction accuracy. Specifically, it achieves average improvements of 0.3945, 0.546 and 0.061 in Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE), and R-squared (R<sup>2</sup>) metrics, respectively. Building on the above findings, a monitoring and early warning platform for the wind turbine transmission system was developed, integrating digital twin visualization with intelligent prediction functions. This platform enables a fully intelligent process from data acquisition and status evaluation to fault warning, providing an innovative solution for the predictive maintenance of wind turbines. |
