    摘要: An electrical system (150) for a wind turbine (100) having a reduced uptower footprint and method for achieving the same are provided. Accordingly, the electrical system (150) includes a plurality of electrical subsystems (168) having a plurality of electrical subsystem assemblies (144). At least one electrical subsystem assembly (144) is integrated with the generator housing (120). Additionally, the electrical subsystem assembly (144) is coupled between the stator (130) or the rotor (132) of the generator (118) and the generator output connection (134). The electrical system (150) incorporating the electrical subsystem assembly (144) with the generator housing (120) has a reduced uptower footprint relative to a nominal design of an electrical system.

    摘要: The present subject matter is directed to a system 300 and method 700 for reducing ice or condensation that forms on a power component 210 of a wind turbine during a power outage. The method includes determining 702 an ambient temperature near the power component; providing 704 one or more parameters of the power component; determining 706 a down time of the power component for the power outage; determining 708 a wait time for the power component to stay offline as a function of the ambient temperature, the one or more parameters, and the down time of the power component; and heating 710 the power component 210 for the wait time before supplying power to the power component 210 such that a surface temperature of the power component is raised above the ambient temperature. As such, the method 700 prevents the power component 210 from being energized when condensation or ice may be present.

    摘要: A system for temperature control of an electronic component includes a heat plate (10) supporting the component (18); a heat plate temperature sensor (20), a fan (14) capable of providing air for cooling the heat plate; and a fan control (22) for using the heat plate temperature to control the operation of the fan to provide a substantially constant heat plate temperature. The system can further include a heat pipe assembly (12) having fins and coupled to the heat plate with the fan capable of providing air to the fins. The heat pipe assembly can include at least two heat pipes each having first ends coupled to the heat plate and second ends situated in a condensation section where at least one of the heat pipes has a different working fluid than an other. A switch temperature or load current sensor can be coupled to the heat plate and supply data to a switch controller for receiving the switch temperature, determining whether the temperature or load current has changed, and adjusting a switching frequency of the at least one electronic switch device in response to any change of the switch temperature. A bus layer can be situated adjacent the component and selectively coated with an insulating material and studs can mechanically and electrically coupling the bus layer and a printed circuit board to the component. An insulating shield can be situated between the bus layer and the printed circuit board with the studs.

    摘要: A method for operating a multi-level bridge power converter of an electrical power system includes connecting a plurality of phases of the power converter to a common terminal at a DC side of the power converter so as to effectively equate the plurality of phases at a common electrical potential. The method may also include monitoring, via a controller, a plurality of devices of the power converter for faults. Upon detection of a fault in one or more of the plurality of devices, the method includes activating, via the controller, one or more protection devices of a crowbar of the power converter to prevent additional faults from occurring in remaining devices of the plurality of devices by diverting energy away from the remaining devices of the plurality of devices.
