The Use of Automation Applications for Efficient Braking of Modern Wind Turbines

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 10

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to study the wind turbine brake system in order to describe the structure, function and efficiency of automation that slows down and / or immobilizes a wind turbine in highwind conditions in order to prevent the wind turbine being destroyed. A description of the modules / components that make up this system is provided through pictures and figures. Firstly presented all the existing forms of renewable energy sources. Secondly, a theoretical analysis of the structure and operation of the wind turbine is made in order to clarify its individual functions by emphasizing the braking system. In the end, there is a theoretical comparison of efficiency in high wind blowing phenomena between two wind turbines (VestasEnercon), which have a leading position in Greece.
