Overview
The Siemens Wind Turbine SWT-2.3-93 is a high-efficiency member of the 2.3 MW turbine family, designed for both onshore and offshore applications. It features a robust structural design, automatic lubrication, climate control, and a simple generator system for exceptional reliability and long service intervals. The turbine uses Siemens’ NetConverter® system for flexible power conversion.
Technical Description
General Design: The SWT-2.3-93 is an upgraded version of the SWT-2.3-82, featuring a new B45 blade and a rotor diameter of 93 meters, increasing the swept area by 25%.
Rotor and Blades: The turbine has a three-bladed rotor with pitch regulation for power optimization. The B45 blades are made using Siemens’ IntegralBlade® process, ensuring high quality and structural integrity.
Rotor Hub: Made of nodular cast iron, the hub is designed for easy maintenance access.
Main Shaft and Bearing: The main shaft is forged in alloy steel, supported by a self-aligning double spherical roller bearing.
Gearbox: A custom-built, three-stage planetary-helical design with large-capacity cooling and filtering systems.
Generator: A fully-enclosed asynchronous machine with a squirrel-cage rotor, designed for high efficiency at partial loads.
Mechanical Brake: A secondary safety system with hydraulic calipers.
Yaw System: Features an externally geared ring with eight electric planetary gear motors.
Controller: Uses a standard industrial computer for self-diagnosing and easy status readout.
Power Conversion: The NetConverter® system allows for variable speed, frequency, and voltage operation.
Tower: Made of tapered tubular steel, with an optional personnel hoist.
Operation
The turbine operates automatically, starting at wind speeds of 3–5 m/s and reaching rated power at 13–14 m/s. It shuts down at wind speeds exceeding 25 m/s.
Remote Control and Monitoring
Equipped with the WebWPS SCADA system for remote control and status monitoring, and a Turbine Condition Monitoring (TCM) system for real-time diagnostics.
Grid Compliance
The turbine meets all current grid code requirements, with integrated Park Pilot facility for voltage and frequency control.
