2. § Set-up in 2010 as a new application lab coordinated by Sirris to support wind energy RD&I activities
§ Partnership with the 4 Flemish universities dealing with (offshore) wind energy research:
VUB, UGent, Uantwerpen, KU Leuven
§ Range of unique test & monitoring infrastructures (large climate chamber / measurement equipment /…)
§ Focus on wind energy in harsh environments: offshore wind and cold climates
§ New cluster working (IBN-cluster) since 2017

Context
19. • GE 1.5MW
• Three point mounting
• 1 planetary stage
• 2 helical gear stages
• Doubly-fed induction generator
Field Turbine (FIELD)
Test Object 2: Field
31. • Impacts measured by acc at HSS
• Potentially linked to changing loading
• Conditions in HSS stage during reversal of torque
HSS Axial Impacts
Test Object 2: Field
41. • What do we want to learn?
• What sequence of events lead to failure?
• Comes down to: trigger followed by turbine response actions eventually resulting in failure
• Detect this high level action sequence
External Trigger Turbine Action 1 … Turbine Action n Failure
Find those patterns interesting for failure detection
49. Conclusions
• Physics-based approaches using big data of added value to design and monitoring
• Condition monitoring on long term data-sets for trend tracking
• Vibration data augmented with temperature analysis
• Status log pattern mining for detecting episodes in turbine event sequences
