Components of a wind turbine - sophisticated from the foundation to the rotor tip

Essentially, a wind turbine is made up of a manageable number of components , but their functionality must be 100% guaranteed to ensure safe and efficient operation. Superficially, the foundation ensures the stability of the wind turbine, although different solutions can be considered depending on the subsoil. The construction of the towers allows not only to bear the weight of the nacelle and the rotor blades , but also to absorb the extremely strong static loads caused by high wind forces. The rotor blades , on the other hand, convert the energy contained in the wind into a rotary movement. The speed generated by the rotor is adjusted to the speed required by the generator in a geared wind turbine. Other components include clutches, brakes, control systems, cooling and air conditioning, as well as lightning protection and fire extinguishing systems.
