production and in effect another electronic u201c brake u201d on the turbines 39 shaft and therefore on the blades 39 rotational speed in an u201c over speed u201d event the excess current of generator 24 can be switched through the p e controls to charge the coils wrapping the magnet on 24 thereby reversing the magnet 39 s polarity this change of polarity acts as an u201c electric brake u201d on blade 14 39 s output shaft until the transient gust has passed or as a means to lock down the turbine as determined by anemometer 18 there are thus three possible load set points blades of turbines 12 and 14 are scaled to match to local environmental conditions created by the sizing and choice of the three generators 20 22 and 24 the three generators effectively create an electronic transmission with three gears sized to 1 light wind 2 start up to average geographic wind speed and 3 maximum wind speed these three generators 20 22 and 24 are all direct drive units sitting on under the output shaft eliminating any output loss that would accompany the use of belts gears and clutches in conventional transmissions by using three smaller generators rather than one large generator the usable power output will start at lower speeds stay on the power profile of generators found on the market which have narrow high rpm power bands for effective conversion to and from mechanical to electrical power and be able to produce power in gales and high winds which would cause conventional units either to.
