Supervised various electrical maintenance teams on several other projects such as turbine generator rotor installation, motor operated valve refurbishment, battery maintenance, and panel cleaning

Not exact matches

Blown generators, misbehaving gearboxes and damaged rotors keep turbines from maximizing the energy they draw from nature, raising the question of how to reliably maintain dozens of mammoth towers, some of which rise more than 100 meters above the ground.

In a conventional geared turbine, the rotor turns a large gear, which turns a smaller one, which turns the generator.

The turbines come in two main varieties of rotors — the part of the generator that catches the wind and spins — and share many of the same advantages.

Savonius rotor turbines are another design, where air scoops are mounted on the shaft of the generator, forming a spinning cylinder.

In wind turbines, carbon fiber's stiffness means rotors can use longer blades, thereby increasing the efficiency of each individual generator.

By the way, the capacity factor only reflects the nature of the wind speed distribution, and the relative size of rotor and generator, i.e. it does not indicate some physical limit to what a wind turbine can do or something.

Probably only the rotors and turbine / generator have had it at 15.

It's actually pretty simple: The energy in wind turns the turbine's blades around a rotor that is connected to the main shaft, which itself spins a generator to create electricity.
