Articulated Wind Column
The Articulated Wind Column (AWC) is an innovative floating foundation technology which enables the economical development of offshore wind farms in deeper waters with higher wind speed.
Main Parts and Components of Wind Turbines
It lifts the blades to a sufficient height so that they can rotate and capture enough wind energy to generate renewable power. The tower can reach
WindFloat TC & FC
The WindFloat TC (tubular, center column) and FC (flat-panel, center column) are natural evolutions of the existing WindFloat® technologies that combines proven features to support a wind turbine
How a Wind Turbine Works
Concrete-filled double skin steel tubular columns with large hollow ratios (LHR-CFDST) have been commonly researched in the past few years. The excellent performance of this structure
Wind turbine design
Because power increases as the cube of the wind speed, turbines must survive much higher wind loads (such as gusts of wind) than those loads from which
