Abstract :
Wind turbine is widely used in renewable energy system. A new measurement and control system for braking torque of wind turbine brake has been developed. High-precision torque sensors and hydraulic sensors are adopted to ensure accuracy of measurement and control. The Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 is used to develop the system which has functions of data acquisition, storage, query and analysis.
