The coal mill is assumed to be a lumped parameter object, and a calculation method based on the static heat balance of the coal mill calculates all heat input into or output from the coal mill quantitatively; however, a model of the coal mill has yet to be established on this basis (Feng et al., 1997, Ganapathy (2002), Magdalinović (1989)).
Monitoring and diagnosis of coal mill systems are critical to the security operation of power plants. The traditional data-driven fault diagnosis methods often result in low fault recognition rate or even misjudgment due to the imbalance between fault data samples and normal data samples. In order to obtain massive fault sample data …
