Summary
Fault diagnosis can effectively reduce the energy consumption caused by system faults in building applications. However, conventional machine learning methods require large labeled datasets and suffer from limited generalization. This study proposes a cross domain deep transfer learning (CDDTL) model aimed at enhancing the applicability and effectiveness of fault diagnosis in building scenarios with limited labeled data. A cross- system carbon dioxide heat pump fault diagnosis model based on TL has been established for two different TL tasks in building environments. Feature selection is conducted from dual perspectives of thermodynamic theory and machine learning through theoretical analysis and random forest importance ranking. Transfer learning models are optimized via hyperparameter tuning, significantly improving fault diagnosis accuracy. The results indicate that the CDDTL method outperforms the other four TL methods in both tasks, achieving an optimal accuracy of 91.55%. Through feature variable screening, the accuracy of the correlation alignment fault diag nosis model for the transfer task from the water heater to the air conditioner is improved by 43.44%. After model parameter optimization, the CDDTL method significantly improves fault diagnosis effectiveness, particularly in the water heater to air conditioner transfer direction within building applications. This approach achieves a fault diagnosis accuracy of 91.55%, representing a 9.07% improvement over the baseline (82.48%).
