When Rotor aerodynamic imbalance impacts your wind turbine performance... Windfit is there to help. How?
Let us share a client's case where Windfit detected a sudden increase of the aerodynamic imbalance (1). At the same time, a significant plunge of the turbines power curve was observed (2) on the Windfit web portal results.
Our client called their O&M ENERCON who, based on Windfit's diagnosis, went on site to check the zero angle of the blades and found a 3° pitch offset on one of them.
Less than a month after Windfit sent its alert, our client fixed the issue (3) impacting the turbine's performance, leading to an 6.5% AEP gain.
