Abstract
Wind turbine gearbox is one of the most important and most expensive components of wind turbine. Once installed, it is difficult to repair. Therefore, it needs effective experiments during its design and production to meet the strict quality requirements. The test platform adopts Closure Design, which enables it to experiment two gearbox products at the same time. And thanks to the closed-loop design, the experiments are energy conservation. It´s able to learn the running condition and operating parameters in real time. It can also intelligently control each system of the entire test platform, which including lubrication system, loading system, frequency converter, motor and other equipments. Besides, alarming when a problem occurs in the test platform is one function of the test platform.
