  • Centrifugal weights 11 are attached to the blades.
  • FIG. 2 shows the plant, but in detail, with the generator consisting of a synchronous generator 8.
  • the generator and the turbine hub 10 are set on a: common fixed hollow shaft. Whithin the fixed hollow shVft, there is a drive shaft 20 connected to the turbine; the drive shaft is connected by a universal joint 19 to the shaft 18 leading to the releasable coupling 15, which can be joined to the shaft leading out 21.

  • the rotation of the turbine will then be.transmitted to the gear wheel 14, so that the gondola turns itself out of the wind and the rotation plane of the turbine becomes nearly parallel with the direction of the w.ind. " In this position, the turbine will cease to rotate, and the plant will remain in this position.
  • the turbine can thus be disconnected if it is subjected to impermissible stresses of the. kind mentioned in the introduction.
  • the indicators 22, 23 and 24 are connected to the plant. By means of these indicators, such as stresses in excess of the specified limits can be indicated. If, for example, there should be a loss of the • electricity in the network, the generator would have no load, or be overloaded. To protect the generator against this, one of the indicators 24a is designed to register the tension in the network and as necessary disconnect the pull magnet 16, so that the turbine is turned ou.t of the wind and stops. This indicator is located in the control room 12. Another indicator 24b is designed to register the output of the generator. This output becomes excessive if ' wind velocity is too high, and there is a danger that the windings of the generator will be burned. When the output registered reaches a certain level, the current to the pull magnet 16 is therefore interrupted, so that the turbine is disconnected. This indicator is also located in the control room 12. A third indicator 23 may b-e installed to register the temperature in the generator or its housing, so .that when a certain maximum permissible temperature is reached, the pull
  • the indicator 23 is located close to the windings of the generator. Further, an indicator 22 is designed to register vibrations in the plant. For example, when ice forms on the rotorblades, an imbalance can arise in the turbine. A large imbalance can cause severe vibrations which can damagethe plant. This indicator is located at the top of the mast underneath the yaw bearing and releases the pull magnet in the event of severe vibration. The plant is then disconnected, and the lockable coupling thus turns the turbine to a : position where its plane of rotation is in parallel .with the direction of the wind. Since the abnormal operation conditions can change - for example, the wind can die down - the turbine is turned out of the wind only for a limited interval of time.
  • a timed relay for example, may be used and ' set at an appropriate time interval.
  • the electric current to the pull magnet is interrupted for the desired length of time, after which the. current is restored.
  • the turbine then turns toward the wind and resumes supplying power. If some abnormal operating condition again is registere the puli magnet is again released, and the turbine turns out of the wind and is disconnected.
  • both the registration of abnormal operating conditions, and the resumption of normal operation are done automatically.
  • Thepull magnet 16 of the coupling 15 is operated from the control panel 12, which as mentioned may be placed at the base of the mast. From this control panel it is also possible to control the pull magnet manually, so that the plant can be disconnected for inspection and service, for example.

Abstract

Un dispositif permet la protection de la turbine et du générateur d'une éolienne contre les contraintes anormales telles que par exemple les vitesses élevées du vent, la perte de l'alimentation de puissance électrique du réseau, les températures excessives et les vibrations mécaniques. Le dispositif est pourvu d'indicateurs (22, 23, 24a, 24b) qui enregistrent de telles conditions de fonctionnement anormales, et il est également pourvu d'un accouplement libérable (15) qui peut être connecté à la fois à l'arbre de turbine (20 et 28 respectivement) et à la roue dentée (7) adaptée sur le mât de turbine. Dans le cas de contraintes anormales, le mouvement de la turbine est transmis pour provoquer une rotation de l'installation, la turbine tournant de sorte que son plan de rotation soit parallèle à la direction du vent.
