HTW5.2-127¸HTW5.2-136 -
Hitachi, Ltd.
As is an inherent in the physics of a downwind configuration, the stronger the wind, the larger the clearance between the blades and the tower by blade flexion. This results in a lower probability of a tower hit. In case of stand still mode, downwind turbine switches to a free yaw operation mode and wards off the cross wind by the weather vane principle without yaw control even in case of black out conditions. This, in principle, reduces overturning moment to the foundation or floaters and maintains high degree of safety. That is important especially for offshore projects. Also, the wind sensors installed at the front of the blades give a more precise wind direction and speed in the upper stream. Yaw and blade pitch shall also be modulated to the right angle for more production.

HTW2.0-80 -
Hitachi, Ltd.
Hitachi has begun by getting to know the wind. Wind flow and wind direction change virtually every second. The power of wind can be harnessed and converted into a clean form of energy. One ideal way to do so is found here.

ZephIR 300 -
ZephIR Lidar
ZephIR 300 measures wind characteristics onshore and on fixed or floating platforms offshore from just 10 metres (33 feet) up to 200 metres (656 feet) from installed position to inform wind regime and quality studies during the development and operation of wind farms onshore and offshore.

It has also become increasingly apparent in recent years that the wind turbine industry has recognised the importance of condition-based monitoring, especially for offshore wind turbines, where access is often limited.To increase reliability and minimise down time, many wind turbine manufacturers, owners and operators are turning to condition-based monitoring systems, aimed at predicting wind turbine maintenance issues, so that operators can quickly and effectively carry out predictive maintenance, repairs and replacements of components when needed, without the need for costly routine maintenance checks and visits. As a result, a condition monitoring system increases operational time, improves site performance and reduces maintenance costs for wind turbines, especially offshore ones.

Wind Iris -
Avent Lidar Technology
The Wind Iris is based on Leosphere's leading WINDCUBE pulsedLidar technology, and is the first remote sensor dedicated to turbine-mounted measurements. It measures the horizontal wind speed and direction from 40m to 400m upwind of the turbine. Real time and average data can then be transferred automatically or stored in a data logger.

ZephIR DM -
ZephIR Lidar
ZephIR DM is a Dual Mode variation of the successful 300 system. ZephIR DM measures wind characteristics in front of or behind a turbine from just 10 metres (33 feet) out to 300 metres (984 feet) situated inside the spinner or on top of the nacelle, during the operation of wind farms onshore and offshore (this is limited to 200m (656 feet) when in ground based vertical mode).

The Wind Miser also greatly reduces or eliminates the occurrence of the Whisper turbine’s blade flutter in high winds, which creates a loud sound similar to a tractor trailer’s engine brake. This was a pleasant surprise, and was an unexpected result from the Wind Miser’s design. We believe that the Wind Miser’s continuous loading of the wind turbine over the entire alternator waveform, instead of the loading and unloading of the turbine which occurs as the alternator output waveform moves above and below the battery voltage, eliminates a cogging type of mechanical excitation to the turbine blades, thus reducing or eliminating the blade flutter and it’s annoying sound.
