Management of Mechanical Vibration and Temperature in Small Wind Turbines Using Zigbee wireless network

Abstract:

              This paper presents the development of a methodology to manage the mechanic vibration and temperature from Wind Turbine. The objective is propose a new diagnostic and protection tool through analysis and monitoring signals of vibration and temperature from wind turbines, aiming predict a need of preventive maintenance and mostly avoids catastrophic failures. A wireless transmission system using technology Zigbee. The software of User friendly interface will have the functionality plus online display of received data also the possibility of storing and reporting data rates of vibration and temperature obtained during monitoring.
