Towards Reliability Centred Maintenance of Wind Turbines
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reliability centred maintenance applied to a fleet of wind turbines is presented in this paper. The key components and failure modes are identified via analysis of maintenance records. Corrective actions which an operator can take to mitigate such failures are discussed, together with implementation issues. By developing a robust set of RCM tools, wind farm operators can better quantify and minimise operational expenditure of wind farm fleets. Keywords-wind farm; Wind Turbine, Reliability Centred Maintenance, Risk.

متن کاملReliability Assessment of Wind Turbines
Wind turbines can be considered as structures that are in between civil engineering structures and machines since they consist of structural components and many electrical and machine components together with a control system. Further, a wind turbine is not a one-of-a-kind structure but manufactured in series production based on many component tests, some prototype tests and zeroseries wind tur...
