  2. Pitch bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_bearing

    The pitch bearing, also named blade bearing, is a component of modern wind turbines which connect the rotor hub and the rotor blade. [1] The bearing allows the required oscillation to control the loads and power of the wind turbine. The pitch system brings the blade to the desired position by adapting the aerodynamic angle of attack. [2]

  3. Blade pitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_pitch

    Blade pitch control is a feature of nearly all large modern horizontal-axis wind turbines.It is used to adjust the rotation speed and the generated power. While operating, a wind turbine's control system adjusts the blade pitch to keep the rotor speed within operating limits as the wind speed changes.

  4. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

    A vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) is a type of wind turbine where the main rotor shaft is set transverse to the wind while the main components are located at the base of the turbine. This arrangement allows the generator and gearbox to be located close to the ground, facilitating service and repair.

  5. Darrieus wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darrieus_wind_turbine

    The Darrieus wind turbine is a type of vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) used to generate electricity from wind energy. The turbine consists of a number of curved aerofoil blades mounted on a rotating shaft or framework. The curvature of the blades allows the blade to be stressed only in tension at high rotating speeds. There are several ...

    An example of a wind turbine, this 3 bladed turbine is the classic design of modern wind turbines Wind turbine components : 1-Foundation, 2-Connection to the electric grid, 3-Tower, 4-Access ladder, 5-Wind orientation control (Yaw control), 6-Nacelle, 7-Generator, 8-Anemometer, 9-Electric or Mechanical Brake, 10-Gearbox, 11-Rotor blade, 12-Blade pitch control, 13-Rotor hub

  7. Quietrevolution wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quietrevolution_wind_turbine

    Both models consist of three vertical airfoil blades, each having a helical twist of 120 degrees. This feature spreads the torque evenly over the entire revolution, thus preventing the destructive pulsations of the straight-bladed giromill (Darrieus turbine). The wind pushes each blade around on both the windward and leeward sides of the turbine.

  8. Panemone windmill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panemone_windmill

    A diagram of a panemone whose wind-catching panels are arranged to turn edge-on to the wind when moving against the wind's thrust, and side-on when moving downwind to harness the wind's motion. A panemone windmill is a type of vertical-axis wind turbine. It has a rotating axis positioned vertically, while the wind-catching blades move parallel ...

  9. Yaw system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw_system

    The passive yaw systems utilize the wind force in order to adjust the orientation of the wind turbine rotor into the wind. In their simplest form these system comprise a simple roller bearing connection between the tower and the nacelle and a tail fin mounted on the nacelle and designed in such a way that it turns the wind turbine rotor into ...
