Specifications
The document outlines specifications for wind turbine models V112-3.3 MW™, V117-3.3 MW™, and V126-3.3 MW™, each with a rated power of 3,300 kW. They operate within a temperature range of -20°C to +45°C, with de-rating above 30°C. Rotor diameters are 112 m, 117 m, and 126 m, with swept areas of 9,852 m², 10,751 m², and 12,469 m², respectively. The turbines feature pitch-regulated power control with variable speed and full-scale converters.
Procedures
The document details transportation dimensions for nacelles, hubs, and blades, emphasizing adherence to specifications for safe and efficient transport. Nacelle dimensions for transport are 3.4 m in height, 12.8 m in length, and 4.0 m in width. Blade lengths range from 54.65 m to 62 m, with a maximum chord of 4 m.
Norms and Standards
The turbines meet various IEC standards, including IEC IB, IEC IIA, and IEC IIIA, with specific hub heights and wind classes. Compliance with DIBt standards is also mentioned for certain models.
Recommendations
Recommended turbine options to enhance performance and safety include Condition Monitoring Systems, service personnel lifts, aviation lights, low-temperature operation capabilities, ice detection, fire suppression, and obstacle collision avoidance systems (OCAS™).
Annual Energy Production
The document provides assumptions for annual energy production, considering 100% availability and 0% losses, with a standard air density of 1.225. Power curves for each turbine model illustrate output in relation to wind speed.
Key Data from Graphs
The power curves show that turbines reach their rated power output at wind speeds between 12 m/s and 15 m/s, with noise-reduced sound power modes available depending on site and country regulations.
