Wind turbine gearbox fault prognosis using high-frequency monitoring SCADA data

With growing wind energy capacity, especially offshore, reliability of wind turbines (WT) becomes a relevant concern. Poor reliability directly affects their cost effectiveness due to increased operation and maintenance ...

SCADA Data Mining for Condition Monitoring of a Wind Turbine Gearbox: A physics of failure and neural network based approach

Wind power is the fastest-growing energy source and the offshore wind industry is expected to grow by over 80 GW through 2024. There is a need to reduce all associated costs to be competitive in a market that might be fully subsidy-free soon. Adapting a predictive or condition-based maintenance strategy can help in reducing O&M costs, as it...
