The system for remote monitoring of a vertical axis wind farm

Abstract

The article presents a system for remote monitoring of working parameters of a wind turbine with a vertical axis. The monitoring system was built using a Raspberry PI 3 microcomputer with the Raspbian operating system and a MicroDAQ E2000 measuring card. The developed system enables monitoring the power output of the generator, torque on the turbine shaft, turbine speed and wind speed. The values of the monitored parameters are saved in the internal memory of the measuring device. By using a microcomputer, it is possible to view and share measurement results remotely.
