Sistema de aquisição de dados para um campo de testes de turbina eólicas.

Abstract

The design of data acquisition automation of experiments and equipment and a topic that has received considerable attention these days and many data acquisition systems have been developed based on microprocessors. The purpose of this paper is to describe the design of a dedicated, modular microprocessor-based data acquisition system. Modularity applies to both the hardware and the software and allows modifications to the proposed system to be made without major problems. The design of the system control unit was based on the MOTOROLA MC6800 microprocessor. The said data acquisition system was developed to be applied in the field of tests of wind turbines of the Nucleus of Wind Energy of the Center of Sciences and Technology of the UFPb, Campina Grande Campus. This system aims to collect and process synoptic, electrical and mechanical parameters, print technical reports with test results and store data on a mass storage medium.
