Wind turbine blade testing platform
Author: | Print | Close | Text Size: A A A | 2015-06-02

The platform mainly includes automatic NDT scanning system (FORCEAMS-64), wind turbine power characteristics and load data field testing system (GL Garrad Hassan) and hydraulic biaxial fatigue testing system (MTSIREX).

Wind turbine blade nondestructive testing (NDT) part of the platform. Based on the research on nondestructive detection technology, a set of nondestructive testing equipment platform suitable for wind turbine blade structure and material properties is built up. The platform includes automatic NDT scanning system, phased array ultrasonic detector, portable ultrasonic detector etc..

Wind turbine blade field testing part of the platform. A set of field testing technology adapt to large-scale and flexible wind turbine blades development is established. In long-term operating conditions, many testing and monitoring of the blade properties of structure and load can be realized. We can provide solution for field performance test of blades and units for the industry.

Biaxial fatigue testing part of the platform. A complete system of fatigue analysis, test and evaluation of wind turbine blades is established. A hydraulic biaxial fatigue testing system is built up, which can carry out fatigue test of wind turbine blades in two directions at the same time.
