Read MoreCarbon fiber composite driveshaft drives innovative wind turbine
As wind turbine designers try to capture greater energy with each turbine, blade length, size and weight have increased dramatically. Further, blade tip speed is limited by noise ordinances, so very large turbines typically spin at less than 20 rpm. Yet hub rotation is the driver for the generator. For that reason,
