Abstract

Pitch drive system in wind turbine is composed by the planetary gear system to satisfied its required performance such as long life and light weight for gear train. When the planetary gear system can reduce its volume and weight, the power consumption of the wind turbine can be reduced. In this study, the planetary gear system of the pitch drive system in medium-sized wind turbine is obtained for weight reduction by shape optimization method. And the planetary gear system is verified for their strength by the structural analysis.
