Abstract
A wind energy conversion system consists of a number of components to transform the energy in the wind to electrical energy. One of these components is the rotor, which is the component that extracts energy from the wind. Energy transferred to rotor by gearbox hence it is one of the most important component of wind energy conversion system. The gearbox is the critical component prone to failure in the load path between the turbine and the generator. Introduced here is a gearbox that features a shortened load path through a pairs of gears combined with linkages and a crankshaft. The Eclipse Gearbox is a high-reliability gear set that can significantly reduce reliability problems.
