Use of a high rate datalogger inside a Wind TurbineAbstract – SCADA data in wind farms are normally not enough to discover the inner behaviour of all the subsystems in a wind turbine. This paper shows what we learned in the design of a specific data logger to collect...

In Photovoltaic plants, what happens in the down and sunsets? How many times the Inverters go in and out of production? Whenever the light level is near the Inverter’s threshold for getting in production or out of production, little variations of the light (due...
Data analysis, Training in Wind Turbine technologies
Wind Turbines are autonomous production plants of electric energy that provide information about their statur. These data are normally collected at the Control Center of the Wind Farm (SCADA, but also may come from Specialized autonomous dataloggers, like the...
Data analysis, Instrumentation
A Wind Turbine includes a number of sensors, input electronic cards and cabling that feed its Controller; they are used to decide what to do next. The values of some of them are stored inside the Controller, but they are not available externally. Typically the...
