Wind turbines last longer than ever thanks to continuous engineering improvements. Gearboxes in wind turbines, more than those in any other application, tend to fail prematurely. In fact, at some wind ...
Over the past decade, land-based wind turbines have grown from about 700 kW to well over 2 MW. This up-scaling in size, however, has subjected gearboxes and other components to even greater loads and ...
• Gearboxes with high step-up ratios tend to give horizontal wind turbines poor efficiency when wind speeds are low. • One way to eliminate wind-turbine bird kills: Locate turbines far out at sea.
