It includes at least two mutually rotatable parts and a locking member having locking protrusions. At least one working plane passing through the locking protrusions is defined in a locking position where compression forces are concentrated which are reaction forces to external forces tending to rotate said parts relative to each other. The parts have locking protrusions defining gaps for receiving the locking protrusions in the locking position for preventing the parts from being rotated to each other.

Method of operating a wind turbine having a tower, a rotor with a plurality of blades arranged on the tower, one or more pitch systems for pitching the blades, a system for determining an instantaneous representative wind speed, and a system for determining a distance between a blade and the tower. The method comprises determining the instantaneous representative wind speed, and determining the distance between the tower and one of the blades when said blade is in the shadow of the tower. The method further comprises determining a tower distance pitch adjustment depending on the determined distance between the tower and the blade in the shadow of the tower and on the determined instantaneous representative wind speed. The method still further comprises the one or more pitch systems applying the determined tower distance pitch adjustment to at least the next blade to be in the shadow of the tower.

A method of real-time monitoring of the operation of a wind turbine in an operational region of theoretically constant power coefficient is disclosed. The method comprises measuring the electrical power generated by the wind turbine, a representative wind speed, and an ambient temperature. The wind power available to the wind turbine for a given moment in time may be calculated based on the measured ambient temperature and measured representative wind speed. The aerodynamic power captured by the wind turbine at the same moment in time may be determined based on the measured electrical power generated. And the practical power coefficient may be calculated by dividing the aerodynamic power captured by the calculated available wind power.

A locking arrangement comprises a locking member having a longitudinal axis that is contained in a working plane where shear forces are concentrated when the locking member is in a locking position. The working plane is arranged substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the parts to be locked when in said locking position in which at least one part of the wind turbine is prevented from being rotated relative to at least another part around said axis of rotation. A Wind turbine generator is provided having a rotor with a rotor flange portion and a stator with a stator flange portion, with both flange portions being complimentarily shaped and defining a locking housing for receiving said locking member.

Wind turbine having a yaw system that comprises an annular gear, a plurality of motors, and a gear system having a gearbox and a pinion for each of the motors. Each of the gear systems is arranged to transmit a torque from the related motor to the annular gear. Moreover, at least one of the gear systems comprises a rotatable component having a frangible joint between a first part and a second part of the gear system. This joint is adapted to be broken once, during operation, the first part receives a torque from the annular gear that is greater by a predetermined amount than a torque received from the second part, said breaking of the joint causing the first part to be dragged by the annular gear independently from the second part.

A method of operating a wind turbine having a rotor with a plurality of blades, and one or more pitch mechanisms for rotating the blades is disclosed. The method comprises a sub-nominal zone of operation and a supra-nominal zone of operation for wind speeds above the nominal wind speed. The sub-nominal zone of operation comprises a first, a second and a third operational range. The first operational range extends from a cut-in wind speed to a first wind speed, wherein the rotor speed is kept substantially constant at a first value. The second operational range extends from the first wind speed to a second wind speed, wherein both the rotor speed and generator torque are varied as a function of wind speed. The third operational range extends from the second wind speed to the nominal wind speed, wherein the rotor speed is kept substantially constant at a second value, and wherein in the second operational range, the generator torque, T, is determined in accordance with T=k·ω2, wherein ω is the generator speed and k is non-constant over the second operational range.
