  • Patent number: 9903345
    Abstract: Lubrication method and wind turbine comprising a rotor with a hub supported by a main bearing with two opposite bearing races coaxially spaced by rotatably fitted bearing rollers in a lubrication area which is sealed by oil sealing rings between the bearing races. The lubrication area comprises one or more oil inlets operatively connected to an oil supply, and one or more oil outlets. The vertical distance between the outlet(s) and the lowest point of the lubrication area is 0-0.2 times the inner diameter of the outer bearing race. The inlet (s) and the oil supply are configured to supply an oil flow not exceeding the drain capacity of the one or more outlets.

  • Patent number: 9228566
    Abstract: Wind turbine comprising a tower with an interior enclosed by a tower wall which forms a heat exchange surface in an air cooling circuit wherein the tower interior forms a channel for guiding hot air along a flow path, wherein one or more air flow deflectors are arranged within the flow path for guiding the flow towards the tower wall. The flow deflectors can for example be active flow deflectors, such as fans or blowers, or passive flow deflectors, such as one or more static flow deflector plates or vanes, forming a static mixer element.
