4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Heat exchange principle of wind turbine generator set"

What are wind turbine generator technologies?

This chapter presents an overview of wind turbine generator technolo‐gies and compares their advantages and drawbacks used for wind energy utilization. Tradi‐tionally, DC machines, synchronous machines and squirrel-cage induction machines have been used for small scale power generation.

How does a wind turbine work?

Electromechanical energy transmitted to the grid. Usually wind turbines are classified by their mechanical power control, and further by their speed control. All turbine blades convert the motion of air across the air foils to torque and then regulate that torque in an attempt to capture as much energy as possible.

How does a geared wind turbine work?

In a geared wind turbine, the generator speed increases with the gear ratio so that the reduc‐tion in machine weight is offset by the gain in gearbox weight. For instance, the wind tur‐bine operates at a speed of 15 rpm and the generator is designed to operate 1200 rpm (for 60 Hz) .

Why is wind energy important?

1. Introduction Wind energy is playing a critical role in the establishment of an environmentally sustainable low carbon economy. This chapter presents an overview of wind turbine generator technolo‐gies and compares their advantages and drawbacks used for wind energy utilization.
