ABSTRACT
This study introduces a fault diagnosis algorithm based on particle filtering for open-cycle liquid-propellant rocket engines (LPREs). The algorithm serves as a model-based method for the startup process, accounting for more than 30% of engine failures. Similar to the previous fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) algorithm for the startup process, the algorithm in this study is composed of a nonlinear filter to generate residuals, a residual analysis, and a multiple-model (MM) approach to detect and diagnose faults from the residuals. In contrast to the previous study, this study makes use of the modified cumulative sum (CUSUM) algorithm, widely used in change-detection monitoring, and a particle filter (PF), which is theoretically the most accurate nonlinear filter. The algorithm is confirmed numerically using the CUSUM and MM methods. Subsequently, the FDD algorithm is compared with an algorithm from a previous study using a Monte Carlo simulation. Through a comparative analysis of algorithmic performance, this study demonstrates that the current PF-based FDD algorithm outperforms the algorithm based on other nonlinear filters.
