Abstract

Power generation through renewable sources became a crucial need, nowadays there is a strong global tendency of governments and companies making huge investments in this field. Wind energy has shown a considerable worldwide growth rate, emerging as the one with most potential above the renewable energies. Wind turbines, the devices capable of converting kinetic into electric energy, can present diverse architectures, regarding rotation speed, power control, drive train and generator type. Different architectures lead to distinct machine operation and essentially to different maintenance approaches. This paper researched the wind farms in operation and under construction in Brazil, cataloguing the wind turbines types used in the national market. In all, 4,154 wind turbines were studied; these machines were sorted into 31 turbine models, corresponding to 7 distinct architectures. Once the predominant technology in the Brazilian market is determined, it can be used as basis for Operation & Maintenance application.

Key Words   
Wind turbines, Architectures, Brazil wind technology, Wind turbine characterization
