摘要

With the rapid advancement of aviation technology, ensuring the reliability of aircraft engines through accurate fault diagnosis remains a critical challenge. Current studies predominantly focus on component-level faults, while subsystem-level diagnostics—essential for comprehensive maintenance strategies—are under-explored. This paper proposes the Wavelet-CNNTrans Method, integrating continuous wavelet transform (CWT), convolutional neural networks (CNN), and Transformer architectures to address the dynamic, non-stationary flight data of turbine engines. Our objective is to enhance fault diagnosis accuracy by extracting time–frequency features from multivariate sensor data and leveraging deep learning for pattern recognition. Evaluated on NASA’s N-CMAPSS dataset, the method achieves 91.85% on accuracy in identifying subsystem-level faults under complex operating conditions, demonstrating its potential for improving engine safety and maintenance efficiency.
