Electrostatic noise grounding system for use in a wind turbine and a rotor and wind turbine comprising the same

摘要

Disclosed herein is a wind turbine rotor which includes a plurality of blades and a hub root, wherein at least one blade is provided with at least one electrostatic noise grounding system. The electrostatic noise grounding system includes an insulated rod having a first end and a second end, a conductive core passing through the insulated rod, a first conductive element connected to the conductive core at the first end of the insulated rod, and a second conductive element competed to the conductive core at the second end of the insulated rod. The electrostatic noise grounding system is secured to a portion of the rotor (e.g., blade bearing housing or blade bearing housing bolted connection) such that the first conductive element is in direct physical contact with at least a portion of the surface of at least one blade and the second conductive element is in direct physical contact with at least a portion of the surface of the hub root.
