TRANSCRIPT

Optimization of the sensor network use

Current situationOn a wind turbine (WT), hundreds of sensors are found at different location and used for control and performance optimization, but also condition-based maintenance. Unfortunately, a high number of sensors leads to more complexity in the analysis.

A reasoning system can improve the data analysis

First findingThe current working state can be identified with only six sensors: wind speed, ambient temperature, pitch angle, yaw angle, power output, rotational speed.

The reasoning system building is in progress!

Availability is a critical issue for offshore wind farms

The availability is a function of machine properties, site accessibility and maintenance strategy:

Design for reconfiguration

If a minor failure occurs, the wind turbine may be able to work anyway. A function of the wind turbine may be carried out in a different way, until the failure is repaired. During that period, the efficiency and the performance of the wind turbine are usually lower than during the normal operation mode.

This part of the thesis has not been started yet.

Availability-based design optimization of offshore

wind farm

IEA Wind Task 33 on Reliability dataI am involved in a task group, with Fraunhofer IWES, Sandia National Laboratories, Chalmers University, China Wind Energy Association, DTU, Vattenfall, etc.The purpose is to improve the “Standardization of data collection for wind turbine reliability and maintenance analyses”.

Maintenance strategy

The availability of a wind turbine is the

percentage of time it is mechanically able to produce electricity.

Examples of maintenance operations on offshore wind turbines(source: Areva, Siemens)

Background and aimOffshore wind is a promising energy resource in order to face the climate change and to reduce the gas emissions. Over the last decade, this sector has experienced a very rapid growth, wind turbines have become powerful and wind parks bigger. However, the availability of the wind farms is still low, the costs for a repair are increasing and the loss of energy is high if a turbine stops.This research aims to find ways to increase the availability of offshore wind farms.

+ Low accessibility + Harsh environment + High travel time + …Þ Low availabilityÞ High O&M costs

Wind turbine working and

healthy

Pitch system fails, turbine

stopped

Reconfiguration:Stall control

instead of pitch control

Wind turbine working but not

healthy

The pitch system is repaired by the

maintenance crew

Example of reconfiguration

Progress and objectivesProgress in the PhD: The GO decision was taken last December.

The first conference presentation will be done next September at Stanford University, Stanford CA, USA.Next step in the research: Include new sensors in the reasoning system and test it with real data.

Start the reconfiguration part.
