Integrated condition?based maintenance modelling and optimisation for offshore wind turbines

Maintenance is essential in keeping wind energy assets operating efficiently. With the development of advanced condition monitoring, diagnostics and prognostics, condition-based maintenance has attracted much attention offshore industry recent years. This paper models various activities their impacts on degradation performance turbine components. An integrated strategy corrective maintenance, imperfect time-based preventive proposed compared with other traditional strategies. A simulation programme developed to simulate turbines estimate performance. case study a 10-MW (OWT) presented analyse different The results reveal that not only reduces total cost but also improves generation by reducing downtime expected supplied. Furthermore, optimised find best threshold balance trade-off between use activities.
