- Abstract
The article discusses methods for analysis and condition monitoring for wind turbines. It states that condition monitoring programs for wind turbines generally include time scheduled oil analysis, and mentions the most important oil properties that need to be monitored for wind turbines such as viscosity, and oxidation.
