“…Moreover, Thiringer and Linders [29] analyzed the relationship between the wind speed and the output power based on a group of wind turbines. They found that the powers generated from individual wind turbines of the same type actually vary even at the same wind speed.…”

One of the most expensive and critical component in wind turbines is the gearbox. Gearbox failure may have significant impacts on the network in terms of continuity of power supply especially in islanded areas where the majority of power demand is supplied by wind farms. As such, an effective condition monitoring technique for wind turbine gearbox should be adopted to avoid any catastrophic failure to the gearbox and maintain system reliability. This paper presents a technique to monitor the gearbox condition through monitoring the shaft torque and the gearbox vibration signals. Practical measurement is conducted on a test rig that emulating real wind turbine operation. Model based control technique using voltage slider by injecting a current through the induction generator stator terminals is applied to emulate real fault conditions on the wind turbine blades such as icing accumulation, wind share and gust wind. Order analysis technique is used to analyse and compare the obtained signals during normal and abnormal operating conditions.

“…The simple operation of a wind turbine is as follows; when air flow hits to turbine wings, it causes the turbine wings to turn and as a result of this, the shaft where the turbine wings are connected turns. In small power wind turbines, this shaft is generally connected to generator directly but in huge power wind turbines, it is generally connected to generator by means of a gear box [11][12][13][14][15].…”

Abstract-In this paper, a battery-supported hybrid windsolar energy generation system with switching power flow control is presented to supply stable electrical power to two laboratories at the Electric & Electronic Engineering Department. For this purpose, 600W 3-phase permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based on the wind power generation system (WPGS) and the solar power generation system (SPGS) consisting of 190W 3 pieces mono crystal solar panel were combined to build a 1170W hybrid wind-solar power generation system (HWSPGS). The solar and wind power generation systems were used as the main energy sources while 100 Ah 12V 6 pieces gel jeep cycle accumulator groups were used as the energy storage device to ensure continuity of energy. Also dynamic modeling and switching power flow control of the battery supported the HWSPGS were performed using Matlab/Simulink in this study. Determining the switching positions of the charge control unit according to loading and battery charge situations of the HWSPGS, power flow control between the generation unit and consumer was made in planned manner. When the curves of electrical magnitudes obtained from simulation results were examined, it was determined that no big difference existed in electrical and mechanical magnitudes in parallel to dynamic behavior of the installed hybrid power generation system. Index Terms-Wind power generation, solar power generation, hybrid power generation, battery storage, switching power flow control.
