The advantages of horizontal axis wind turbines are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
1. Stability: During the operation of the horizontal axis wind turbine, the direction of the wind subjected to the rotor shaft is fixed, and the stability is relatively high. This feature makes the horizontal axis wind turbine more suitable for operation in a stable wind field, and can output electricity stably.
2. High efficiency: horizontal axis wind turbine has high conversion efficiency. Due to its design structure and the Angle adjustment mechanism of the blades, the horizontal axis wind turbine can better capture wind energy and convert it into electricity. This allows the horizontal axis wind turbine to generate electricity at lower wind speeds, improving its efficiency in using wind energy.
3. Maintenance convenience: The main components of the horizontal axis wind turbine are concentrated on the ground, which is convenient for daily maintenance and troubleshooting. In contrast, vertical axis wind turbines require a rotor structure that swings up and down, which is more complex and difficult to maintain.
4. Maturity: The technology of horizontal axis wind turbines is very mature and has been widely verified in practical applications. Therefore, the design, manufacture and maintenance of horizontal axis wind turbines are relatively simple and feasible, making them low cost and easy to achieve mass production.
5. Suitable for a variety of environmental conditions: because the blades of the horizontal axis wind turbine face the wind direction, the Angle of the blades can be flexibly adjusted to adapt to different wind speed and wind direction conditions, so it is suitable for a variety of geographical and climatic conditions.
6. Easy installation: The structure of the horizontal axis wind turbine is relatively simple and the installation is flexible. They are usually installed on the top of the tower, and the height and Angle of the tower can be adjusted as needed.
In summary, the horizontal axis wind turbine has the advantages of good stability, high efficiency, easy maintenance and high technical maturity, making it a more widely used power generation device in the field of wind power generation.
