Condition Monitoring System of Repaired Gearboxes of Wind Turbine

Wind power becomes one of the most important cleaner energy in the world. The maintenance problem becomes the main factor preventing the appropriate power price which can be accepted by people. So, many researches contribute to improve the availability of wind farms. Traditionally, most researchers paid attention to the fault diagnosis, prognosis and maintenance strategies optimization to short the down time and the maintenance cost. But they all neglect the condition monitoring work of repaired gearbox of wind turbine before it is delivered to the customer from maintenance center to the wind farm. The life of repaired gearbox is also a very critical factor which influences the availability of wind farm. Good checking methods and good standard can provide a good support of good performance after the gearbox installed on the up tower. So, this paper proposed how to address these issues.
