  2. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

    The world's tallest vertical-axis wind turbine, in Cap-Chat, Quebec Vortexis schematic Vertical axis wind turbine offshore. 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 ...

  3. Yaw system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw_system

    Schematic representation of the main wind turbine components. The yaw system is located between the wind turbine nacelle and tower. The yaw system of wind turbines is the component responsible for the orientation of the wind turbine rotor towards the wind.

  6. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    A wind turbine is a device that converts the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. As of 2020, hundreds of thousands of large turbines, in installations known as wind farms, were generating over 650 gigawatts of power, with 60 GW added each year. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Wind_turbine_diagram.svg

    English: A turbine and gear box are mounted in a casing called a nacelle, and rotor blades are attached to the turbine. The turbine localizes the energy of the turning rotor blades in a single rotating shaft that generates electricity.

  8. 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).

  9. 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 ...
