2. Nacelle (wind turbine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nacelle_(wind_turbine)

   A nacelle / n ə ˈ s ɛ l / is a cover housing that houses all of the generating components in a wind turbine, including the generator, gearbox, drive train, and brake assembly. [1]

3. Wind turbine design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine_design

   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

4. Unconventional wind turbines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_wind_turbines

   Counter-rotating wind turbines Light pole wind turbine. Unconventional wind turbines are those that differ significantly from the most common types in use.. As of 2024, the most common type of wind turbine is the three-bladed upwind horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT), where the turbine rotor is at the front of the nacelle and facing the wind upstream of its supporting turbine tower.

5. Yaw bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw_bearing

   For the gliding elements of this gliding surface to be replaced, the nacelle-rotor assembly must be lifted by an external crane. An alternative solution to this problem is the use of mechanical or hydraulic jacks able to partially or fully lift the nacelle-rotor assembly while the gliding yaw bearing is still in place. In this way and by ...

6. Yaw drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw_drive

   Schematic representation of a gear rim with teeth on the inner side. The gear rim meshes with four yaw drive pinions.. The gear-rim and the pinions of the yaw drives are the components that finally transmit the turning moment from the yaw drives to the tower in order to turn the nacelle of the wind turbine around the tower axis (z axis).

7. Doubly fed electric machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubly_fed_electric_machine

   Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), a generating principle widely used in wind turbines. It is based on an induction generator with a multiphase wound rotor and a multiphase slip ring assembly with brushes for access to the rotor windings. It is possible to avoid the multiphase slip ring assembly, but there are problems with efficiency, cost ...

8. Savonius wind turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savonius_wind_turbine

   λ is a characteristic of each specific windmill, and for a Savonius rotor λ is typically around unity. For example, an oil-barrel sized Savonius rotor with h= 1 m and r= 0.5 m under a wind of v= 10 m/s, will generate a maximum power of 120 W and a maximum angular speed of 20 rad/s (190 revolutions per minute).

9. Seawind Ocean Technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawind_Ocean_Technology

   Seawind Ocean Technology B.V., a Netherlands based company, is a manufacturer of integrated floating wind turbine and green hydrogen systems. [1] [2] [3] Seawind is developing two-bladed floating wind turbines (6.2 MW and 12.2 MW) suitable for installation in all seas, including hurricane regions and ultra-deep waters.
