The Development of 5MW Off-shore Direct-drive Wind Turbine Generator

摘要

XE115 5MW direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generators for gearless wind turbine are of a new type that developed by XEMC in order to expand the off-shore wind power area. This paper describes the main design basis, design principles, main design features and advantages, as well as the application prospects. From the view point of the type test results, the 5MW grade direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generators for gearless wind turbine has been developed successfully, with its excellent performance showing that XEMC has been at the advanced level of the world in the development of MW grade direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generators for gearless wind turbine.
