Book excerpt: The present monograph offers a detailed and in-depth analysis of the topic of fault diagnosis for electric power systems and electric vehicles. First, the monograph treats the problem of Fault diagnosis with model-based and model-free techniques (Model-based fault diagnosis techniques and Model-free fault diagnosis techniques). Next, the monograph provides a solution for the problem of Control and fault diagnosis for Synchronous Generator-based renewable energy systems (Control of the marine-turbine and synchronous-generator unit and Fault diagnosis of the marine turbine and synchronous-generator unit. Additionally, the monograph introduces novel solutions for the problem of Fault diagnosis for electricity microgrids and gas processing units (Fault diagnosis for electric power DC microgrids and Fault diagnosis for electrically actuated gas compressors). Furthermore, the monograph analyzes and solves the problem of Fault diagnosis for gas and steam-turbine power generation units (Fault diagnosis for the gas-turbine and Synchronous Generator electric power unit and for the steam-turbine and synchronous generator power unit). Finally, the monograph provides a solution for the problem of Fault diagnosis for wind power units and for the distribution grid (Fault diagnosis for wind power generators and Fault diagnosis for the electric power distribution grid). The new fault detection and isolation methods that the monograph develops are of generic use and are addressed to a wide class of nonlinear dynamical systems, with emphasis on electric power systems and electric vehicles. On the one side, model-based fault detection and isolation methods are analyzed. In this case, known models about the dynamics of the monitored system are used by nonlinear state observers and Kalman Filters, which emulate the system’s fault-free condition. On the other side, model-free fault detection and isolation methods are analyzed. In this case, raw data are processed by neural networks and nonlinear regressors to generate models that emulate the fault-free condition of the monitored system. Statistical tests based on the processing of the residuals, which are formed between the outputs of the monitored system and the outputs of the fault-free model provide objective and almost infallible criteria about the occurrence of failures. The new fault detection and isolation methods with statistical procedures for defining fault thresholds enable early fault diagnosis and reveal incipient changes in the parameters of the monitored systems.
