Abstract:
A wind turbine nacelle configured for mounting on a wind turbine tower and for supporting a rotor-supporting assembly, the nacelle comprising a main unit, and at least one auxiliary unit. To increase flexibility and improve assembly and maintenance procedures of the wind turbine, the auxiliary unit comprises at least two sub units each accommodating at least one wind turbine component, e.g. a converter or a transformer. The sub units are attached individually to the main unit or they are joined and attached as one component to the main unit.
