the preset value a of this embodiment may be set according to actual conditions, and this value is not a fixed value, and the preset value a of this embodiment is preferably: twice the normal operating noise frequency;
when the frequency of the fault noise is lower than the preset value a (usually, the frequency of the fault noise coincides with or is close to the frequency of the normal operation noise, and in this embodiment, the close frequency is two times lower than the frequency of the normal operation noise), step S32 is executed;

The enhanced denoising process is the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
However, since the wind blade is rotating and the current position of the wind blade is unknown to the collecting array, although the fault direction can be determined, the position of the fault on the wind blade cannot be determined, so the fault position is determined by determining the fault azimuth angle, specifically as follows:
as shown in fig. 4, along with the rotation of the wind blade, the fault position on the wind blade changes along a circular track, two rays are led out from the center of the acquisition array, one ray passes through the fault position, the other ray passes through the center of the rotating surface of the wind blade, and the fault azimuth angle is formed at the moment, as shown in the figure, a point U is the fault position, O is the center of the rotating surface of the wind blade, and a is the center point of the acquisition array;
it is emphasized that the magnitude of the fault azimuth does not need to be measured manually, and the acquisition array automatically records the magnitude of the fault azimuth when the fault position is detected.

referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a fault azimuth angle provided by an embodiment of the invention, a wind driven generator has three wind driven blades, and it is required to determine on which wind driven blade a fault occurs, when the fault azimuth angle ∠ MAU reaches the maximum, the fault azimuth angle is tangent to a circular track of a fault position, and a position of the fault wind driven blade can be determined.
S6, archiving abnormal state sound data, and establishing a blade fault type database;
in order to be able to accurately diagnose blade faults, a more complex and accurate blade fault type database needs to be established; the blade fault type database comprises key information such as common fault types and fault generating positions of the blades. The establishment of the blade fault type database needs to classify and label various blade faults of different types based on collected sound signals in the long-term working process of the blade and by combining abundant operation and maintenance personnel experience so as to increase the discrimination and establish an accurate fault type description relationship. In addition, for different blade faults, the characteristics of sound signals are different, so that various fault audio information needs to be recorded and labeled; especially, when the CNN fault judgment model outputs a suspected unknown fault type, the collected sound signal is marked as an actual fault type after being manually confirmed.
S7 model increment training;
there are two ways of incremental training, Sample Incremental Training (SIT) and output class incremental learning (CIT), where,
and (3) sample increment training: and under the condition of ensuring the existing knowledge, extracting new knowledge through incremental learning of the CNN fault judgment model on the new sample, using the new sample to train the CNN fault judgment model, and realizing updating.
Output category incremental learning: copying the CNN fault judgment model to obtain another model, wherein one model is not modified, the other model is added with new faults on the basis of outputting the original faults, retraining to obtain a new model, and simultaneously considering the prediction performance of the new model on new fault categories and the response difference of the original fault categories on the new model and the old model, so that the LOSS function of the new model is adjusted to obtain: LOSS1+ LOSS 2;
wherein LOSS1 refers to new class detection; LOSS2 refers to the difference in the output of data on the old model and the new model; LOSS2 ensures that the output on the old and new models is similar, so that the new model does not change the prediction effect of the old model.
