Power-Split Hydrostatic Transmissions for Wind Energy Systems

In a wind turbine, if a continuously variable transmission is placed between the turbine rotor and the generator, the speed ratio can be tuned to match the variable rotor speed to the constant speed of the electric generator, thus eliminating the need to adapt the frequency to the grid. In this pape...
