  • Patent number: 10288037
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a wind turbine (10) comprising a rotor (12) and a generator (18), connected to said rotor (12), for outputting electrical power to an electrical grid, said rotor (12) comprising rotor blades (14) whose blade pitch angles (?) may be moved during operation in order to control the rotational speed (n) of the rotor (12). Upon reaching a rotational speed (n) higher than a rotational speed limit (nlim) that delimits an operational range (34, 34?, 34?) of said wind turbine (10), the rotor (12) is forcibly braked by increasing the blade pitch angle (?) at a predefined positive blade pitch angle movement rate (?r). According to the invention, the rotational speed limit (nlim) is altered as a function of a blade pitch angle movement rate (?) set by the control. The invention also relates to a corresponding wind turbine (10).

  • Patent number: 9688841
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flame-retardant thermoplastic polyurethane based on at least one diisocyanate and on at least one substance reactive toward isocyanate, and preferably on at least one chain extender, and also optionally on at least one catalyst, and comprising at least one flame retardant, and also optionally additives and/or auxiliaries, where one flame retardant is a metal hydroxide at least to some extent surrounded by a coating, the material comprises, as further flame retardant, at least one phosphorus-containing flame retardant which is a derivative of phosphoric acid, phosphonic acid, and/or phosphinic acid and the material further comprises hydrotalcite and/or phyllosilicate, and also to an associated production process and the use.

  • Patent number: 9670337
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flame-retardant thermoplastic polyurethane based on at least one diisocyanate and on at least one substance reactive toward isocyanate, and preferably on at least one chain extender, and also optionally on at least one catalyst, and comprising at least one flame retardant, and also optionally additives and/or auxiliaries, where one flame retardant is a metal hydroxide at least to some extent surrounded by a coating, and the metal hydroxide is aluminum hydroxide, aluminum oxide hydroxide, or a mixture of said hydroxides, and also to an associated production process and use.

  • Publication number: 20150284536
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flame-retardant mixture comprising (A) at least one polyurethane as component A, (B) at least one flame retardant selected from the group consisting of tallow, ammonium phosphate, ammonium polyphosphate, calcium carbonate, antimony oxide, zinc borate, clay, montmorillonite clay, metal oxides, metal hydroxides, organic phosphinate compounds, organic phosphate compounds, polyhydric alcohols, melamine compounds, chlorinated polyethylene, and mixtures thereof, as component B, and (C) at least one crosslinking reagent as component C, where the at least one crosslinking reagent is at least one isocyanate dissolved in at least one polyurethane, and also to a process for the production of a flame-retardant polyurethane, to the resultant flame-retardant polyurethane, and also to the use of a solution of at least one isocyanate in at least one polyurethane in the production of a flame-retardant polyurethane for increasing the mechanical stability of flame-retardant polyurethanes.

Upon reaching a rotational speed (n) higher than a rotational speed limit (nlim) that delimits an operational range (34, 34?, 34?) of said wind turbine (10), the rotor (12) is forcibly braked by increasing the blade pitch angle (?) at a predefined positive blade pitch angle movement rate (?r), particularly at a maximum potential positive blade pitch blade angle movement rate (?r,max). According to the invention, the rotational speed limit (nlim) is altered as a function of a blade pitch angle movement rate (?) set by the control. The invention also relates to a corresponding wind turbine (10).
