Title: A method for damping tower vibrations in a wind turbine installation
Inventor: NORHEIM IAN
IPC: F03D/
Filed: 2006-10-30
Abstract: A method in connection with a wind turbine installation for damping tower vibrations, in particular a floating wind turbine installation comprising a floating cell, a tower arranged over the floating cell, a generator mounted on the tower that is rotatable in relation to the wind direction and fitted with a wind turbine, and an anchor line arrangement connected to anchors or foundations on the sea bed. The tower's eigenvibrations, .omega.eig, are damped by, in addition to control with the controller in the constant power or RPM range of the wind turbine, an increment, .DELTA..beta., being added to the blade angle of the turbine blades on the basis of the tower velocities, .DELTA.Z , so that the eigenvibrations are counteracted. The vibrations in .beta. that have frequency .omega.eig can expediently be damped by means of a stabiliser with the transfer function Hstab(s) between the tower velocities, .DELTA.Z , and the blade angle, .DELTA..beta., which is such that the loop transfer function H-.beta.-.DELTA.Z-dot {j.omega.eig ) Hstab (j.omega.eig ) = -b , which means that: (I) where "b" is a variable depending on the moment and thrust characteristics of the turbine blades.

Abstract: A method and device for applying a pre-tensioned force to a spiral window balance. The spiral balance includes a containment tube, a spiral rod and a torsion spring that traverses the length of the containment tube. The device includes a pre-tensioning insert that is contained within an anchorage fixed within the upper end of the containment tube. At least one boss formed at the base of a bore within the pre-tensioning insert defines a channel that receives the upper end of the spiral rod. To apply a pre-tensioned force to the spiral balance, the lower end of the spiral rod is pulled from the lower end of the containment tube, turned a number of revolutions and reinserted into the containment tube without being allowed to rotate. The upper end of the spiral rod is non-rotatably retained within the channel by the boss to prevent it from losing its pre-tensioned force.
