5
Variable-Speed for Wind The 2 Competing Systems
  • Fewer components, higher reliability
  • No gearbox (less losses, maintenance, noise)
  • Higher partial load efficiency (3 5 higher
    energy production for permanent-magnet
    excitation)
  • No generator slip rings and brushes (lower
    maintenance cost)
  • Low voltage, low speed, reliable generator rotor
    (especially true for permanent-magnet excitation)

VENSYS Gearless Technology The Generator Winding
  • The VENSYS Winding
  • Pre-formed winding
  • Medium-voltage (2000 V) insulation system
    low-voltage (690 V) operation
  • Proven insulation technology using materials from
    experienced suppliers
  • Fractional slot winding smooth pole-slot
    interaction and sinusoidal voltage for further
    noise reduction

Winding with slot wedges

VENSYS Gearless Technology The Frequency
Converter
  • VENSYS Variable-speed Technology
  • Passive diode rectifier high efficiency, low
    EMI.
  • Very low harmonics to the grid.
  • Automatic adjustment to 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
  • Measured and certified low-voltage ride through
    operation.
  • Full reactive power control.
  • High reliability air cooling with only 1 fan,
    robust converter control.
  • Good serviceability modular design with fast
    IGBT exchange.

Conclusions
Common goal making wind more cost competitive!
  • Typical Industry Approach High Risk
  • Blade feedback control with new sensors for load
    reduction.
  • New highly compact gearbox designs with unproven
    components.
  • New drive-train (one-stage gearbox
    medium-speed generator).
  • Carbon blade technology.
  • Highly innovative converter and control
    technologies.
  • The VENSYS Low-Risk Approach
  • Maximum energy production through high
    efficiency.
  • High reliability through minimum number of
    components.
  • Low maintenance cost through minimum number of
    components.
