IEC 61400
IEC 61400 is an international standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) regarding wind turbines. Purpose and function 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,Woebbeking, Mike"IEC TS 61400-22"pages 1-2 and 9 '' Germanischer Lloyd'', 2008. Accessed: 12 March 2011Archive/ref> assembled and operated. Wind turbines are capital intensive, and are usually purchased before they are being erected and commissioned. Some of these standards provide technical conditions verifiable by an independent, third party, and as such are necessary in order to make business agreements so wind turbines can be financed and erected. IEC started standardizing international certification on the subject in 1995, and the fir ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nacelle (wind Turbine)
A nacelle is a cover housing that houses all of the generating components in a wind turbine, including the generator, gearbox, drive train A drivetrain (also frequently spelled as drive train or sometimes drive-train) is the group of components that deliver mechanical power from the prime mover to the driven components. In automotive engineering, the drivetrain is the components o ..., and brake assembly. A notable feature now found on some off-shore wind turbines is a large sturdy helicopter-hoisting platform built on top of the nacelle, capable of supporting service personnel and their tools, winched down to the platform from a helicopter hovering above it.Eize de VriesClose up: Alstom Haliade 6MW Prototype ''Windpower Monthly'', 11 July 2012. Wind turbine rotors are stopped, feathered and locked before personnel are dropped down to or picked up from the platforms. References Wind turbines {{Windpower-stub ...
