  • Patent number: 8698343
    Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a stationary equipment installed in a sealed space on a space-saving basis and having a favorable cooling efficiency. The stationary equipment includes an equipment main body containing an iron core, a coil and insulating oil, a hollow pipe connected to the equipment main body to circulate the insulating oil in it and a plurality of hollow corrugated fins disposed on the pipe. The pipe and the corrugated fins are covered with a hood, a duct is connected to the hood and the duct is connected to an elongated cylindrical member vertically disposed on an inner wall of the tower to increase airflow by stack effect to increase a cooling efficiency in a wind power generation device.

  • Publication number: 20120211991
    Abstract: A hood in a tower receives air having absorbed heat released from a corrugated rib tank. The hood is set above the corrugated rib tank of a transformer being installed on a foundation in the interior of a tower and transforming electric power generated by an electric generator. An exhaust duct, which discharges the air having absorbed heat released from the corrugated rib tank and flowing into the hood, is provided to the interior of the tower so as to be connected to the hood and extend upward up to the upper portion of the tower.
