4 FAQs about CMS system in wind power generation
What is a wind turbine Condition Monitoring System (CMS)?
A Wind Turbine Condition Monitoring System (CMS) is a tool used by the wind power industry to reduce O&M costs and improve wind farm electricity production. Traditionally, anomalies of rotating machinery components are analyzed and detected through sensing of vibration, acoustics, temperature, and oil quality.
How does a portable wind turbine CMS work?
The portable wind turbine Condition Monitoring System (CMS) works by integrating advanced vibration measurement and analysis methodology. Fault detection for the acquired acceleration response and high-speed shaft speed signal is carried out using a suite of specifically designed data analysis techniques for wind turbine gearboxes.
Does the wind turbine safety chain need a CMS?
However, as part of the wind turbine safety chain, it is an essential part of the WTC. These are usually provided by the OEM, however in some instances where controller access is provided, CMS can be integrated into the WTC to enable remote resets and stops such as ice detection systems.
How a condition monitoring system can improve the efficiency of wind turbines?
