Abstract: The invention relates to a Pelton turbine that comprises a plurality of sub-assemblies arranged about the rotation axis of the wheel and each including a bucket (111) and an anchoring leg (112). At least one blocking pin (13) is provided in a direction (X13) parallel to the rotation axis (X1) of the wheel between two adjacent anchoring legs (112, 112′), wherein said pin is inserted into two housings (1126, 1127) respectively formed in the two anchoring legs (112, 112′). According to the method of the invention, the blocking pin (13) is placed by inserting the same into the two housings (1126, 1127) of two adjacent anchoring legs (112, 112′). The pins are placed into the housings with a clearance, thereby allowing the relative sliding of the anchoring legs (112, 112′) before blocking them with the pins (13).

Abstract: Wind turbine rotational system having several drives and a central control system (CCS), each drive comprising a motor, an electronic converter and an actuator. The CCS sends speed and torque setpoints to the electronic converters which drive the motors according to said setpoints. Operation of the system comprises: designating a drive as master and the other drives as slaves; designating, for each slave, one of the drives as reference drive; the CCS determining master speed and torque setpoints, and sending them to the master; the CCS obtaining real torque of the master; CCS obtaining real speed of each reference drive; and the CCS sending to each slave a slave speed setpoint equal to the master speed setpoint, and a slave torque setpoint equal to the real torque of the master plus a variable offset based on a difference between the master speed setpoint and the real speed of its reference drive.
