The rule of thumb for a wind turbine



The result: greater energy production yield and lowest ownership cost.
Design Features
Advanced over-speed control mechanism vs. old style furling
Problems with old style furling:
Old style furling works well in an ideal, wind tunnel test environment. Realistically, wind speed and wind direction changes frequently and mechanical furling doesn't have instantaneous response to actual changes of wind status. Especially in bad weather conditions, small wind turbine furling components wear out quickly, therefore, increases maintenance costs and shorten wind turbine service life or causes system failure.
Most of old style furling based wind turbines have three moving parts. It is the moving parts for mechanical over-speed protection that wear out and require a lot of maintenance. Operation of furling based wind turbines would lead to mechanical abrasion, cause vibration, malfunction, and failure of the wind turbine and other devastating results in the long run.
The rule of thumb for a reliable wind turbine generator is that the fewer the moving parts, the more reliable the wind turbine is.
Windmax Solution:
Windmax H series adopted Innovative over-speed control so it improves the reliability by abandoning the moving parts for mechanical over-speed protection and minimizing the moving parts to only two.
Innovative over-speed control design of the Windmax H series:
Windmax H series speed limitation abandoned the traditional failure-prone mechanical furling Wind Solar Power System and solved safety and reliability problems facing most small wind turbines. Advanced speed limitation of Windmax H series is achieved through advanced electromagnetic speed limitation supplemented by aerodynamic speed limitation by blade deformation. Electromagnetic braking is used in combination with Aerodynamic braking to reduce the rotational speed of the generator.
