Introduction
The wind turbine model is animated to show the yawing motion of the turbine and the rotary motion of the blades. This turbine is a three blade lift design wind turbine.This 3D model shows all major components associated with a typical wind turbine, these include:
- Blades
- Nacelle
- Rotor Hub
- Bedplate
- Gearbox
- Generator
- Control Unit
- Electrical Transformer
- Tower
- Various motors for yawing and pitching etc.
This 3D model also shows machinery associated with power distribution from the wind turbine, these include:
- Dry Type Transformer (Cast Resin)
- Open air switchyard
- Fluid Insulated Transformer
- Electrical Pylon
