The project aims to develop a medium-speed wind turbine drivetrain that enhances reliability compared to existing high-speed systems. By utilizing a brushless generator and a simplified gearbox, it seeks to optimize performance and reduce failure rates in large-scale wind energy applications.
This project is for the development and industrialization of a novel medium-speed wind turbine drivetrain (WTDT) designed to have an intrinsically higher reliability than the current most widely used high-speed WTDT, which employs a 3-stage gearbox and doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) with partially-rated converter.
The reason that this existing WTDT is so widely employed is that it is cost-effective because it makes use of widely available industrial components and adopts a low-cost partia…
