Abstract
A method and apparatus for inspecting a wind turbine blade. The method includes: acquiring a sound signal generated by an impingement of wind on the wind turbine blade using a sound acquisition device; generating a frequency spectrogram corresponding to the sound signal; and obtaining a damage recognition result of the wind turbine blade from the frequency spectrogram by performing image recognition on the frequency spectrogram based on a damage recognition model. With the method, a damage type of the wind turbine blade is accurately recognized based on the frequency spectrogram without manual inspection. Therefore, human resources are saved. In addition, the health state of the wind turbine blade can be monitored in real time.
