Due to the fatigue reliability issues of sliding-bearing gearboxes in large-megawatt wind turbines
the 6.2 MW WTG is taken as the research object. Internal and external excitations of gears
random loads
electromagnetic characteristics
and sliding bearings are comprehensively considered. The electromechanical coupling dynamics model of the WTG is built under random wind speed. The dynamic characteristics of the transmission components are studied. The strength degradation process of the transmission components throughout their life cycle is characterized using fracture mechanics theory. Based on reliability design theory and fuzzy reliability theory
a time-varying reliability model of a sliding-bearing WTG considering the fuzziness of allowable wear is established. The influences of strength degradation and sliding bearings on WTG's time-varying reliability are explored. Through experimental comparison and verification
the accuracy of the theoretical model meets engineering requirements.
