    Abstract: Methods for determining a yaw angle and a pitch angle cycle for a wind turbine are disclosed. The methods comprise measuring during a measuring time a wind speed and a wind direction at a plurality of measuring heights between the maximum and minimum height at the wind site, determining an average wind speed and an average wind direction for each of the measuring heights during the measuring time, and determining a wind speed distribution and wind direction distribution between the maximum height and the minimum height, and determining one or more yaw-pitch combinations of yaw angle and pitch angle cycles as a function of an azimuth position of a rotor blade that lead to a desired angle of attack along the rotor swept area. The present disclosure further relates to methods of operating a wind turbine and suitable wind turbines.

    Abstract: Method of operating a wind turbine comprising detecting when a first blade substantially approaches the shadow of the tower, and pitching at least one other blade, which is in or approaching a position above the tower, to increase the angle of attack and wind load on said at least one other blade in such a way that an increase of the tilt angle of the rotor is caused. The method further comprises detecting when the first blade is substantially close to leaving the shadow of the tower, and pitching the at least one other blade to decrease the angle of attack and wind load on said at least one other blade in such a way that the previously caused increase of the tilt angle of the rotor is cancelled.

    Abstract: This platform provides access to a hydraulic machine via a suction tube. This hydraulic machine belongs to an installation for converting hydraulic energy into mechanical or electrical energy, or reciprocally. The platform includes a load-bearing element designed to slide along a longitudinal axis in order to enter an opening in the suction tube, said load-bearing element having an extremity that is designed to be immobilized in the suction tube and floor elements that are placed on the load-bearing element. At least some of the floor elements are articulated with the load-bearing element about axes substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, while these floor elements can be rotated about these axes between a folded configuration and a deployed configuration and define at least a portion of a floor of the platform.

    Abstract: The invention proceeds from a rotating electric machine, in particular a double-fed induction machine in the power range between 20 MVA and 500 MVA, which comprises a rotor that rotates about a machine axis, is concentrically surrounded by a stator, and has a rotor plate body and a shaft, which rotor plate body bears a rotor winding that is arranged further outwards and is connected by means of connectors to slip rings that are arranged further inwards at the end of the shaft. A flexible and secure connection is achieved in that the connectors have mechanical connectors that run at right angles to the shaft to absorb forces arising owing to centrifugal acceleration, which mechanical connectors are connected on one side to a rotor winding head of the rotor winding and are supported on the other side on an auxiliary rim on the rotor plate body.

    Abstract: This method can be used for refurbishing a facility for converting hydraulic energy into electrical or mechanical energy, and vice versa. The facility includes a Francis type pump-turbine. The pump-turbine includes a runner movable about an axis, a pre-distributor, including stay vanes defining between each pair of two adjacent stay vanes a first water passage channel and a distributor, including guide vanes arranged downstream of the stay vanes in the direction of water flow feeding the pump-turbine operating in turbine mode. The guide vanes define between each pair of two adjacent guide vanes a second water passage channel. This method includes steps of reducing the height, taken parallel to the axis of rotation of the runner, of the first water passage channels and reducing the height, taken parallel to the axis of rotation of the runner, of the second water passage channels.
