1. General
WinWinD has developed an innovative wind turbine for the market with its
WWD concept. WinWinD’ s basic values include customer satisfaction and
the operational reliability of the products, as well as the win-win co-
operation achieved between the clients and WinWinD.
On the basis of thorough technical and economic research work the WWD
concept, which allows electricity to be produced with a new innovative inte-
grated power unit, was created. The basis for design was efficiency, reliabil-
ity and ease of maintenance which allows the WWD concept to offer the
most cost-effective production throughout its total life, combined with the
lowest operating costs.
The drive train of the WWD-1 wind turbine consists of a single-stage plane-
tary gear and a low-speed synchronous generator. This Multibrid®-concept
combines the reliability of a direct drive and the compactness of a gear sys-
tem. Low rotational speed together with precise dimensioning ensures reli-
ability. The solution is suitable for a weak grid and also enables operation in
a stand-alone mode.
Low maintenance costs are also benefits of the WWD-concept. The main-
tenance is designed so that the production stops are minimized. This
means, in practice, that all the maintenance is done on-site without expen-
sive equipment. The used components have exceptional long maintenance
cycle, which decreases maintenance costs as well.

WWD-1 wind turbine.
The rotor is combined to the power unit using a custom-made three-row

roller bearing (1). The roller bearing transfers the rotor loads directly to the
main casing past the planetary gear and generator.
The single-stage planetary gear (2) has a planetary carrier that runs with
the rotor. The planetary carrier runs the planet gears, which pass the power
to the sun gear increasing the rotating speed ratio 5,71, that is, to 44-146
rpm. The low speed generator (3) produces the electricity, which is con-
veyed to the frequency converter.
The direction and speed of the wind are measured by the anemometer and
wind vane on the cooler. On the basis of the information of the wind vane,
the drive train is turned using the yaw motor so that the blades face up-
wind. The rotational speed is controlled by three independent electric
pitches (4).

blades also act as aerodynamic brakes. Normally the blades are
synchronised but in case of an emergency each blade can be con-
trolled individually. The pitch system is electric and equipped with a
back-up battery. The blades are equipped with lightning conduc-
tors.

8. Brake system
Each rotor blade independently acts as an aerodynamic brake. The

computer controls the system with the help of the anemometer and wind
vane.
The stop procedures are:
The normal stop: the blades are synchronised and they are
adjusted to the stop position 5 degrees/s without using any
mechanical brakes.
The fast stop: the blades are adjusted to the stop position 15
degrees/s without using any mechanical brakes.
The emergency stop: the blades are adjusted to the stop posi-
tion with the speed of about 20 degrees/s using the battery
power. The mechanical brakes are used at the same time.
Each blade can be independently adjusted to the stop position. Each blade
is equipped with a back-up battery. If one of the blade pitches fails, the syn-
chronisation is turned off and each blade is driven separately to the storm
position using the back-up battery.
The system meets the standards of Germanischer Lloyd. The standard

does not require the mechanical brakes but that improves security and is
used for locking the rotor during maintenance.

13. Grid connection
WinWinD wind turbine is monitored by a programmable, digital central con-

trol system, which analyses and controls the electricity production accord-
ing to the digital data, provided by the sensors.
An IGBT inverter is used for connecting to the grid. The inverter is con-
nected to an transformer either outside or inside the foundation. The volt-
age level of the electricity fed to the grid is either 10 kV or 20 kV and the
frequency either 50 Hz or 60Hz depending on the grid.

14. Turbine control, remote monitoring and reporting
WinWinD wind turbines can be connected to remote monitoring system us-

ing an ISDN connection or an analogue telephone line. It is possible to use
a GSM connection, too, if there are no landlines available.
14.1. Reporting
The remote control can be used for diverse monitoring of the functions of
the wind turbine, e.g., basic data, (daily, weekly, monthly or annual) produc-
tion and the status of different functions.
Example of the basic data:
In addition, the system gathers diverse data on production and functions.

The following figure is an example of a daily power production report.
The graphic user interface is user-friendly and the outputs are clear. The
following information, for example, is available real time:
9 Information on production and wind
9 Temperatures
9 Currents, voltages and power data
9 Rotational speed
The diagrammatic presentations and drawings include

9 Daily, monthly and annual production
9 The production data of the latest 24 hours at 10 minute intervals
9 Log events
The production data can be printed.
Mita-modules needed:
• Mita Basic dongle
14.2. Transformation of production data into other information systems (op-

tional)
The production data can be automatically retrieved from the wind turbine to
the control room at fixed intervals. The data can then be converted to, for
example, Excel or Access format. It is possible to produce an ASCII text
file, as well.
This enables the client to make use of the diverse production data of the
wind turbine in their own systems.
• Mita AutoCall (to fetch information from turbines to office))
14.3. Presenting the production data on the Internet (optional)
The system enables presenting the production data of the wind turbines on
the Internet. Access to the data can be free or a username with password
can be used. Thus the production data can be viewed regardless of the
place or time; the Internet-connection, however, is a necessity.
In addition, the client can upload the production data onto their own com-
puter in Excel format, which makes further reporting smooth.
WinWinD modules needed:

WinWinD Internet-based wind park production www- service
14.4. Remote control
Wind turbine can be remote controlled. Settings of the main frame can be
changed also remotely. The wind turbine can be started and stopped using
the remote control, too.
Mita Remote Display
14.5. Alarms
In case of a malfunction the system alarms and informs the central control
room or any pre-programmed telephone number of the need for repair.
The alarm can also be forwarded from the central control room to the main-
tenance personnel using either an SMS or e-mail (optional).
• Mita Basic dongle (to receive the alarm call)
• Mita Auto Alarm Dispatch (for e-mail)
WinWinD modules needed: From E-mail to SMS - module
15. Self-diagnostic of the wind turbine
The wind turbine is equipped with an automatic monitoring system, which

continuously protects and controls the generator and the grid and adjusts
the settings according to the wind and weather conditions. This way the
power production can be optimised. During the cold season the sensors
measure the need for heating of the power unit and lubrication oil and en-
sure a safe start.
For case of a grid drop the wind turbine has an uninterruptible power sys-
tem (UPS), which ensures the control for 3 minutes.
The anemometer and wind vane of the wind turbine monitor the changes in
the wind and the technique starts and stops the plant according to the set-
tings.
16. Lightning protection
The most advanced lightning protection technology in the field is used. The
following principles are applied
9 Lightning conductor in each blade
9 Varistors and fuses in the connector casing of the generator
9 Varistors and fuses on the connectors of the inverter
9 Protected sensor cables

9 Overvoltage protection on the high voltage side of the transformer
9 Earthing of the tower according to the VDE 0185 standard
9 The functioning of the varistors and fuses signalled to the control
computer
17. Anti-icing of blades
Anti-icing of the blades is not in use.
18. Aviation lights
Light intensity 10 cd *)
Battery back-up (in case of grid failure) no
Type of light fixed
Light colour red
GPS-synchronisation no
Amount of lights per turbine 1 unit (consist of tens of leds)

*) ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) defines minimum requirements for

obstacle lights: ICAO Type A, low-intensity, fixed red light: Minimum intensity 10 cd at
+6° and +10° elevation angles, Vertical beam spread 10°
19. Maximum temperatures
When having +35 ºC or smaller outside temperature at hub height the production
capacity is according the power curve.
When having more than +35 ºC outside temperature at hub height, the production
capacity depends on temperature and wind speed. In some conditions, maximum
power shall be temporarily limited.
