  3. IEC 61400 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61400

    IEC 61400 is a set of design requirements made to ensure that wind turbines are appropriately engineered against damage from hazards within the planned lifetime. The standard concerns most aspects of the turbine life from site conditions before construction, to turbine components being tested, [ 1 ] assembled and operated.

  4. Tip-speed ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tip-speed_ratio

    The tip-speed ratio, λ, or TSR for wind turbines is the ratio between the tangential speed of the tip of a blade and the actual speed of the wind, v. The tip-speed ratio is related to efficiency, with the optimum varying with blade design. [1] Higher tip speeds result in higher noise levels and require stronger blades due to larger centrifugal ...

    Wind-turbine blades in laydown yard awaiting installation. The primary application of wind turbines is to generate energy using the wind. Hence, the aerodynamics is a very important aspect of wind turbines. Like most machines, wind turbines come in many different types, all of them based on different energy extraction concepts.

    The generator, which is approximately 34% of the wind turbine cost, includes the electrical generator, [64] [65] the control electronics, and most likely a gearbox (e.g., planetary gear box), [66] adjustable-speed drive, or continuously variable transmission [67] component for converting the low-speed incoming rotation to high-speed rotation ...

  7. Capability curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability_curve

    The fixed speed wind turbines without a power converter (also known as "Type 1" and "Type 2" [5]) cannot be used for voltage control. They simply absorb the reactive power (like any typical induction machine), so a switched capacitor bank is usually used to correct the power factor to unity.
