摘要： A wind turbine has a hub mounted on a rotatable shaft with a ring concentrically mounted on the shaft. The ring is connected to drive wheels, which in turn drive generators to produce electricity. A controller is connected to control the speed of the turbine by controlling the number and force of contact between the wheels and the ring and also controlling other components such as the pitch, yaw and brakes for the turbine while monitoring the wind conditions.

摘要： A method for detecting and reducing edgewise vibrations in a rotor blade of a wind turbine includes, for a given wind speed, determining a frequency or frequency band at which edgewise vibrations are producible in the rotor blade. The method determines an electrical characteristic of the pitch actuator that correlates to an increased torque required to hold a pitch angle of the rotor blade constant at the frequency or frequency band. During an operational power-production mode of the wind turbine, the electrical characteristic of the pitch actuator is monitored. Upon the electrical characteristic reaching a predefined limit value indicative of edgewise vibrations in the rotor blade, corrective action is initiated by the wind turbine controller to reduce or prevent the edgewise vibrations.

摘要： A rotational positioning system in a wind turbine is provided that comprises a driven part, a plurality of positioning drives coupled to the driven part, a plurality of sensors each arranged to sense a load parameter indicative of the load of the respective positioning drive, and a load controller connected to the plurality of sensors. The load controller is arranged to determine a load of a respective positioning drive based on the sensed load parameter, to compare said load with an expected load value, and to output a signal indicative of a failure of the respective positioning drive in response to the load being smaller than the expected load value.
