Abstract
Wind turbine blade icing seriously threatens power generation efficiency and operational safety in cold regions. To address the problem of insufficient accuracy and interpretability in existing icing detection methods, this study proposes a data-driven blade icing fault prediction approach based on Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) operational data. The Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) is applied to alleviate class imbalance in icing samples, while Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) is employed for feature dimension reduction and optimization. Based on the processed dataset, multiple machine learning algorithms—K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Random Forest (RF), Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), and XGBoost—are systematically evaluated. Results show that the XGBoost model achieves the best prediction performance, with an accuracy of 99.80% and a recall of 99.41%, effectively identifying icing events. To enhance model interpretability, the SHAP method is introduced to analyze the contribution of key features, revealing that wind speed, temperature, and humidity are the most influential factors. This study provides a reliable and interpretable data-driven framework for wind turbine blade icing fault prediction, offering technical support for intelligent operation and maintenance.
