摘要： A wind turbine has its blades (1) arranged so that they can pitch towards stall against the action of a spring (15) or other resilient device. The centrifugal loading on the blades (1) acts against the spring (15) in a direction to shed power by pitching the blades (1) towards the stall. The torque loading provided by the generator or other power conversion device acts to pitch the blades (1) in the opposite direction, so as to reduce the amount of load shedding whenever the power is being extracted from the wind turbine.
