Calibration of torque measurement under constant rotation in a wind turbine test bench

Calibration of torque measurement under constant rotation in a wind turbine test bench

<p>To determine the efficiency of multi-MW wind turbines, the torque measurement in wind turbine test benches has to be performed with an accuracy better than 0.2&thinsp;%. To this end, the torque measurement has to be traced to national standards in the MN&thinsp;m range. This can...
