Wind turbines last longer than ever thanks to continuous engineering improvements. Gearboxes in wind turbines, more than those in any other application, tend to fail prematurely. In fact, at some wind ...
This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. The simplest axial magnetic gearboxes consist of two disks each containing alternating positive and negative magnets ...
Over the past decade, land-based wind turbines have grown from about 700 kW to well over 2 MW. This up-scaling in size, however, has subjected gearboxes and other components to even greater loads and ...
Gearboxes in general are a result of over 80 years of accumulated engineering knowledge. So why do gearboxes for wind turbines sometimes fail after seven to 11 years — way less than the anticipated 20 ...
