Torque Traceability For Nacelle’s Test Benches: A Design Proposal

• Abstract:

  This paper describes CEM’s design proposal for a new torque transfer standard. This research arises from the new EMPIR project (14IND14: Torque measurement in the MN·m range”), which aims to provide traceability in the MN·m range for nacelle test benches. Improving the quality of these measurements will lead to a more accurate diagnosis of wind turbines’ performance and a better efficiency in wind power generation.
