Wind Turbine Gearbox : Cooling
Heat is generated during the operation of the gearbox due to friction between the solid surfaces of the moving parts. Most of the heat is generated by the friction between the gear teeth, and between the rollers and rings of the bearings. Depending on the type of the engaging gears, the input torque and speed,…
