Method for characterising the health condition of a wind turbine by monitoring of its basic parameters of power generation

April 2013 - September 2013

Funding entity Olivento


The project objective is to characterize the health condition of a wind turbine using information available about generated power and some environmental conditions such as wind speed and ambient temperature. In particular, this project will develop a method for analysis of possible observed changes in the power curve of a wind turbine over a long period of its time life. These changes can alert about possible anomalies that could evolve to catastrophic faults or non justified loss of the generation capability due to several causes.
