A turbine rotor for a wind power plant or a hydropower plant with a direct-drive generator for converting the energy in flowing wind or water into electrical energy wherein the wind or hydropower plant comprises a turbine rotor and a stator and wherein the turbine rotor further comprises a ring-shaped hub (6) having...

An arrangement for a floating wind power station (1) tower (3) which floats in a substantially vertical position in that the effective centre of gravity of the tower (3) is below the centre of buoyancy of the tower (3), and wherein a machine house (13) including rotor (15) is non-rotatably connected to the tower ...

A method which continuously reduces the variations of the rotor axial force and thus reduces fatigue loads on rotor blades and tower, whilst the resultant output to the generator is not significantly affected or is maintained within acceptable limits in relation to limitations of the drive gear, generator and power ...

A wind-driven power station mounted floating in deep water, comprising a machine house (8) including a generator (not s shown), regulating devices (not shown), rotor axle (9) and rotor blade (10), in which the machine house (8) is mounted at a tower (2) that mainly is floating in an upright position, and where the s...

A turbine rotor for a wind or hydropower plant or for propulsive means for a vessel where the turbine rotor comprises a generally doughnut-shaped hub. The doughnut-shaped hub is configured as a closed, hollow profile in a cross section B, and wherein the doughnut-shaped hub is formed either in the shape of a torus, ...
