Hydropower Turbine Friction Monitoring Dataset
https://doi.org/10.5878/4q73-hp36
The datasets contain pressure and temperature signals from the hydraulic systems of two different Kaplan turbines. The variables can be connected to the forces required to regulate the runner blades on the turbines. The datasets can therefore be used to monitor the friction in the bearings that enable the movement of the runner blades. These bearings are located in the hub of the Kaplan turbines. The datasets are also labeled with information on whether glycerol is present in the systems for lubrication.
The sampling frequency is 1 sample per minute. Each feature includes an average, minimum, and maximum value, which correspond to the statistics during that minute from the sampling as the sampling frequency in the SCADA system is higher than 1 sample per minute.
