A Three-Level Service Quality Index System for Wind Turbine Groups Based on Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation.

The maintenance and upkeep costs of wind farms and their internal wind turbines have been increasing annually. Therefore, a systematic evaluation of their operating status is of great importance in guiding reductions in maintenance and upkeep costs. In this aspect, this article proposes a three-level service quality index system of "key component–wind turbine–wind farm" based on the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. Firstly, raw data on the wind farm are preprocessed to avoid the impact of abnormal data on the evaluation results. Then, the data types are classified and the degradation degree of each indicator is calculated. Based on the entropy weight method, the weight of each indicator is weighted and summed to obtain the overall membership degree. Finally, the overall health level is determined according to the "maximum membership degree", which is the evaluation result. This article conducts an evaluation experiment based on the actual operating data of Gansu Huadian Nanqiu Wind Farm. The example shows that the proposed strategy can systematically evaluate the health level of wind farms and predict the future trends of health status changes. The research results can provide reference for the reasonable arrangement of unit scheduling, operation, and maintenance plans in wind farms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
