摘要:
An offshore wind turbine comprising a tower, where said wind turbine at a level above sea level comprises at least one structure for storing at least one container, said container having the size and measures of a standard container, where said structure is arranged on the side of the tower, and a method of manufacturing such a concrete structure for an offshore wind turbine. The structure for storing one or more containers includes a deck, and at least one bed for supporting at least one container along the container's lower surface and/or edges, where the structure is a concrete structure. By manufacturing the structure from concrete, a very robust and strong structure is achieved.

A method for controlling the position of blades of a two-bladed wind turbine when extreme conditions are detected or forecast for the wind turbine. When extreme conditions are detected or forecast, the wind turbine blades are positioned in a horizontal arrangement, and actively yawed such that a tip of one of the wind turbine blades points into the wind direction. The blades are yawed such as to actively follow the changing wind direction, resulting in a reduced surface area of the blades exposed to the extreme wind forces, due to the spear-like arrangement of the turbine blades. This reduced surface area provides for a reduction in the extreme loads which may be experienced by the wind turbine in such extreme wind conditions.
摘要:
A method for controlling a two-bladed pitchable swept-blade wind turbine in extreme wind conditions is described, wherein when extreme conditions are detected or forecast for the wind turbine, the wind turbine blades are pitched such that they will stabilise in a substantially horizontal arrangement. The blades can be yawed such that the tip ends of the wind turbine blades point in the same direction towards the surface level, thereby lowering the centre of mass of the rotor assembly of the wind turbine blades and the rotor hub. The lower centre of mass of the assembly results in the stabilisation of the blades in a substantially horizontal position, resulting in a reduced surface area of the blades exposed to the extreme wind forces. This reduced surface area provides for a reduction in the extreme loads which may be experienced by the wind turbine in such extreme wind conditions.

A drive shaft for a wind turbine is shaped so as to allow for increased bending of the shaft, while being suitable for transferring torque in a wind turbine system. An example of such a shaping is a drive shaft having a helical rib defined on the surface of the shaft. A wind turbine incorporating such a shaft, and a method of manufacture of such a shaft are also described.
摘要:
The wind turbine (1) comprises a rotor (2) with a number of blades mounted for rotation about a mainly horizontal axis, and the pitch of the blades of the wind turbine is controlled dependence on measured parameters to optimize the operation of the wind turbine with respect to produced energy under varying weather and wind conditions. By measuring mechanical loads on the blades (7, 8), and controlling the pitch of the blades of the wind turbine in such a way, that the measured mechanical loads are maintained below certain limits during operation, the control can be performed closer to the mechanical load limits of the blades without risk of exceeding these limits.
