An expert features enhanced temporal and contextual contrasting learning model for detecting wind turbine blade icing

With global carbon neutrality goals, wind power has rapidly developed, but blade icing remains a major challenge. AI(artificial intelligence) methods show great promise for detecting icing on wind turbine blades. However, early icing data overlap, difficulty obtaining continuous labeled data, and small variations between samples due to short sampling intervals complicate the task. This study proposes an expert feature-enhanced temporal and contextual contrastive learning model for detecting blade icing. This approach efficiently extracts data features and combines self-supervised contrastive learning, maximizing data utilization without requiring extensive labeled data. To validate the effectiveness of this method, extensive experiments were conducted on two public datasets. The results achieved the best performance across multiple metrics, with F1-Score and AUC exceeding 98%, significantly enhancing wind power generation efficiency.
