Wind Turbine Gearbox Control System Using Plc and SCADA

Abstract

The Wind Turbine gearbox is a standout amongst the most vital and costly segments of wind turbine. It is hard to repair, once introduced. Thus it needs compelling tests amid its outline and generation to meet the strict quality pre requisites , Using PLC and SCADA we propose the gearbox warming issue and certain preventive measures. Inside the test stage with the turbine sharp edges two gearboxes are connected in arrangement while change of torque from low to higher stage, because of steady turn there is a considerable measure of warmth created. It is recognized by a temperature sensor . A virtual coolant tank is setup which circles greasing up oil through the gearbox through copper tubes, while it courses, it ingests the warmth. Additionally, disturbing when issue happen it will be shown in SCADA. We are numbering the beat in view of rigging moving.
