Wind Turbine Testing Overview
The IEC 61400 standard defines all the necessary tests for wind power plants which are necessary before they go into operation. This standard includes
IEC 61400-11: Acoustics
IEC 61400-12: Power Performance
IEC 61400-14: Sound Level
IEC 61400-21: Power Quality
IEC 61400-23: Structural Analysis
The highly modular and flexible design of the Dewesoft DAQ systems allows analysis for all of the mentioned parts with the same measurement instrument. Furthermore, additional analysis can be performed:
Power quality according to EN50160 standard
Transformer testing according to IEC 60076
Inverter testing
Generator testing

Power Performance Analysis & Monitoring
To determine the power performance of a wind power plant, it's necessary to measure wind speed, wind direction and temperature along side to voltage and current. The averaged values are then classified in BINS and result in the power performance factor (CP) and the annual energy production (AEP).
Flexible visualizations like Power Factor over Wind speed or a table with Bins, wind speed, power performance factor, and power round up the analysis capabilities.
Dewesoft DAQ systems are not only used for laboratory testing applications but also used for monitoring of the wind power plants:
Power Performance Monitoring
Power Quality Monitoring
Fault Recording, etc
