Wind Turbine Drivetrain Simulator speeds system diagnostics.
August 24, 2009 -
Wind Turbine Drivetrain Diagnostics Simulator (WTDDS) features drivetrain consisting of 2 stage planetary gearbox, 2 stage parallel shaft gearbox with rolling or sleeve bearings, bearing loader, and programmable magnetic brake. All elements have been designed to maximize number of drivetrain configurations to investigate gearbox dynamics and acoustic behavior, health monitoring, vibration based diagnostic techniques, lubricant conditioning, or wear particle analysis.
SpectraQuest's Wind Turbine Drivetrain Diagnostics Simulator (WTDDS) has been designed to simulate wind turbine drivetrains for experimental and educational purposes. The drivetrain consists of a 2 stage planetary gearbox, a 2 stage parallel shaft gearbox with rolling or sleeve bearings, a bearing loader, and a programmable magnetic brake. All elements of the WTDDS have been designed to maximize the number of drivetrain configurations to investigate gearbox dynamics and acoustic behavior, health monitoring, vibration based diagnostic techniques, lubricant conditioning or wear particle analysis. It is robust enough to handle heady loads and spacious enough for easy gear placement, setup, and installation of monitoring devices. The two-stage parallel shaft gearbox can be configured as to reduce or increase the gear ratio. The planetary gear train, sun, planet and ring gears, the carrier, and bearings are all easily accessible.
