  • Patent number: 11480150
    Abstract: To solve the problem of a mis-calibration of a wind turbine a computer-implemented method for re-calibrating at least one yaw-angle of a wind turbine starting from an initial yaw-angle calibration of said wind turbine, based on determining a turbulence intensity estimation value (20) related to said appropriate yaw-angle (10), wherein the turbulence intensity (TI) being a ratio of wind speed deviation to average wind speed over a pre-determined period of time. Further, to solve the problem of a mis-calibration of a wind turbine a system for re-calibrating at least one yaw-angle of a wind turbine based on above re-calibration method. Further, to solve the problem of a management of a wind park below optimum a computer-implemented method for wind park optimization based on simulation calculation including turbulence intensity estimation values (20) estimating said at least one effecting wind turbine (101,102,103) to suffer from wake from said at least one effected wind turbine (100,101,102).

  • Patent number: 4844132
    Abstract: A gripper tape drive device for a shuttleless loom, in which a circular disc is mounted coaxial but not perpendicular to the main loom shaft, its outer circular edge rotatably engaging a circular collar, of which two opposing pins spaced 180.degree. apart cooperate with the ends of a fork rigid with the control shaft of the gripper tape sprocket. Adjustment means are also provided for varying the amplitude of the oscillatory motion of said control shaft.
