Description

A set of ultrasound images of wind turbine bearings with white etching crack subsurface damage. Attenuation levels above -10 dB indicate subsurface damage. Five tests were run under constant loading in a laboratory test rig, with two bearings in parallel. Tests were stopped at the indicated times (in hours) when vibration levels went above a certain threshold. This typically means that one of the two bearings has failed, although this is somewhat inconclusive for the fifth test where both bearings seem to be close to failure. For each bearing two sides were scanned (indicated by A and H). The experiment was performed in summer-autumn 2017 by DTU Wind Energy, as part of the FP7 Integrated Research Programme in the field of Wind Energy (IRPWIND), 2nd Round of Joint Experiments.
