Wind turbines are complex machines that are remotely installed and subject to faults. Fault tolerance is important to reduce maintenance costs and increase energy production. This document discusses methods to improve wind turbine reliability through fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control systems. It describes analyzing faults through model partitioning and propagation, then detecting faults using hardware redundancy, plausibility tests, and model-based approaches. Fault-tolerant control methods presented include signal correction and active/passive linear parameter varying control. Further research is needed to develop integrated online fault detection and fault-tolerant control systems.
