Mitigation of transient torque reversals in indirect drive wind turbine drivetrains
Abstract Bearing failure in wind turbine gearboxes is one of the significant sources of downtime. While it is well‐known that bearing failures cause the largest downtime, the failure cause(s) is often elusive. The bearings are designed to satisfy their rolling contact fatigue (RCF) life. However, th...
