Abstract

Wind turbine manufacturers will conduct many product performance tests before on-site installation. Many wind turbine test platforms are built and used to support design in many companies all over the world, for example, the wind turbines test platform in Denmark Vestas Corporation, the wind turbine gearbox test platform in Hansen Corporation, and the 5 MW wind turbine transmission chain platform in Spain Center Corporation, which is equipped with a torque load simulator with five degrees of freedom.
