摘要

This study introduces an innovative IoT-based framework for predictive maintenance, specifically developed for small wind turbines in decentralized renewable energy systems. The paper focuses on overcoming the challenges posed by legacy monitoring techniques through the use of economical sensor arrays, which include vibration, temperature, and rotational speed sensors, streamlined through an Arduino Uno microcontroller for seamless and uninterrupted data gathering. The hybrid machine learning method that mixes Random Forest and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) algorithms is applied for the processing of the sensor data, providing for the effective prediction of turbine issues like bearing deterioration and blade imbalance. The experimental evaluation testifies a prediction of the fault at 92%, with spike drops in unplanned downtime by 35–40%, and an increase in annual energy production by 15–20%. The maintenance system will enable users to make better decisions by providing them with a tailored web dashboard that shows the condition of the turbine and its history over time, which reduces maintenance costs by 20% to the average. This study contributes to the overall development of cost-effective predictive maintenance systems considerably, thus enabling the proper and more reliable functioning of the small resource wind energy systems.
