Economic viability analysis for icing blades detection in wind turbines

摘要: Abstract Reliability, availability, maintainability and safety (RAMS) of wind turbines in cold climates are closely related to ice accretion. The deterioration RAMS the involves costs such as Operation Maintenance energy losses. Systems monitor condition play a key role industry decrease mentioned above improve maintenance management. This research presents an economic study life cycle cost (LCC) for monitoring systems turbines. In particular, paper studies feasibility different commercial detection through LCC model when exposed scenarios. To date, scientific literature does not collect any about using annual rates return, providing map with numerical solution. is extended by including bank loan real point view. findings this reveal that more profitable selection criteria decide use loan. Finally, it shown predictive much smaller than corrective reaching reduction these systems.
