Mechanical Fault Diagnosis of HVCBs Based on Multi-Feature Entropy Fusion and Hybrid Classifier.

As high-voltage circuit breakers (HVCBs) are directly related to the safety and the stability of a power grid, it is of great significance to carry out fault diagnoses of HVCBs. To accurately identify operating states of HVCBs, a novel mechanical fault diagnosis method of HVCBs based on multi-feature entropy fusion (MFEF) and a hybrid classifier is proposed. MFEF involves the decomposition of vibration signals of HVCBs into several intrinsic mode functions using variational mode decomposition (VMD) and the calculation of multi-feature entropy by the integration of three Shannon entropies.

Application of Multiscale Entropy in Mechanical Fault Diagnosis of High Voltage Circuit Breaker.

Mechanical fault diagnosis of a circuit breaker can help improve the reliability of power systems. Therefore, a new method based on multiscale entropy (MSE) and the support vector machine (SVM) is proposed to diagnose the fault in high voltage circuit breakers. First, Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) is used to process the high voltage circuit breaker's vibration signals, and the reconstructed signal can eliminate the effect of noise.

Shannon Entropy of Binary Wavelet Packet Subbands and Its Application in Bearing Fault Extraction.

The fast spectrum kurtosis (FSK) algorithm can adaptively identify and select the resonant frequency band and extract the fault feature via the envelope demodulation method. However, the FSK method has some limitations due to its susceptibility to noise and random knocks. To overcome this shortage, a new method is proposed in this paper.
