...total control] Power-TrimTM

1. The controller works to ensure that the blade pitch
is adjusted to the optimal position for the current
conditions
2. Measurements of wind speed and temperature are
used to determine the power level of the wind
turbine
3. The actual power achieved is compared to that
expected
4. The blade pitch is adjusted to give the expected
power level thereby correcting for both air density
variation and any blade contamination

8°
5. The 950 kW rated power is attained regardless of
air density and contamination
6. The blade pitch position is typically reviewed every
30 minutes
7. High power correction: immediate blade pitching
action is taken in order to avoid high power levels
8. In case of any malfunction in the pitch system the
turbine continues operating as a passive stall regu-
lated turbine and the blade pitch is held in its
current position
9. Any loss of power or control causes a fail-safe
shutdown of the turbine using the tip brakes. The
