The dynamic analysis of wind turbine drive train is presented in this paper. A typical wind turbine drive train consists of a rotor, gearbox and generator. The dynamic modelling of epicyclic gearbox that exists in wind turbine is challenging due to the fact that it has both rotating and orbiting gears. The dynamic equations of motion are obtained based on the rigid multibody modelling with discrete flexibility approach by Lagrange’s formulation. The dynamic model accounts for the time varying gear tooth mesh stiffness, linear stiffness of bearings and torsional shaft stiffness. The aerodynamic torque that a wind turbine drive train subjected to, is modelled based on the simplified method for load calculation in wind turbine, Danish Standard DS472. The characteristic load value acting per unit length at the two-thirds length of the blade is used for calculating the total load of the torsional moment. The vibration signals that are obtained from wind turbine drive train are nonlinear and nonstationary in nature. This is due to the fact that the applied torque load on drive train is nonlinear and nonstationary in nature. The coupled dynamic model of 18 degrees of freedom is solved for responses in time and frequency domains for some nonstationary wind load realizations. The dynamic responses of the system, contact forces between gear tooth pairs in time and frequency domains are obtained numerically. The study envisages that this dynamic model of wind turbine drive train is very useful for subsequent studies on condition monitoring.
