A method is for operating a wind turbine. The wind turbine includes a nacelle including a nacelle component, in particular a rotor bearing, and a nacelle air flow influencing unit. The nacelle air flow influencing unit is configured to influence an air flow entering, flowing through and/or exiting the nacelle. The method includes: determining an operating condition of the nacelle component, determining a cooling demand of the nacelle component dependent on the determined operating condition of the nacelle component, controlling an operation of the nacelle air flow influencing unit dependent on the cooling demand of the nacelle component to adapt the air flow to the cooling demand of the nacelle component.

The present invention relates to a heating installation arrangement and a method of forming the heating installation arrangement for a wind turbine blade. The heating installation arrangement (100) for a wind turbine blade comprises a sleigh (101), wherein the sleigh (101) forms a platform of the heating installation arrangement (100), the sleigh further includes a recess (109), wherein the recess (109) includes one or more connection points (110, 112) for a corresponding one or more heating apparatus.

The invention relates to a cooling panel assembly (2) for a wind turbine tower (1). It is arranged to be mounted on such a tower (1) on a section thereof as seen in the circumferential direction. The cooling panel assembly (2) includes at least one cooling panel (2a,2b). According to the invention, the cooling panel assembly (2) includes deflector means (6) mounted at the top of the at least one cooling panel (2a, 2b) such that the deflector means (6) shields the cooling panel assembly (2) from above. The deflector means (6) has substantially the same circumferential extension or more as the other parts of the cooling panel assembly (2). The invention also relates to a wind turbine tower (1) provided with at least one such cooling panel assembly (2).

A combustor cap assembly includes an impingement plate coupled to an annular shroud and a cap plate which is coupled to the impingement plate and forms an impingement air plenum therebetween. The cap assembly further includes a flow conditioning plate which is coupled to a forward end portion of the shroud. The flow conditioning plate includes an inner band portion, an outer band portion and an annular portion which extends radially therebetween. The annular portion includes upstream side, a downstream side and a plurality of flow conditioning passages which provide for fluid communication through the upstream and downstream sides. The inner band portion of the flow conditioning plate at least partially defines an exhaust channel. The exhaust channel is in fluid communication with the impingement air plenum and an exhaust outlet. The exhaust outlet is positioned to route cooling air from the impingement air plenum into an annular flow passage defined within a combustor.

The arrangement directed to a generator, which contains a rotor and a stator us disclosed. The stator contains at least two stator segments. At least one of the stator segments contains a number of stacked laminate plates. The stacked laminate plates contain a number of slots at a first side, while the first side of the stacked laminate plates is aligned to the rotor. The slots support a metal-winding of a stator coil. At least one hollow cooling-pipe is partly integrated into the stacked laminate plates of the stator segment to cool its laminate plates by a cooling-medium, which is located into the cooling-pipes.

A wind turbine for generating electrical energy may include a tower, a nacelle at the top of the tower, and a rotor coupled to a generator within the nacelle. The wind turbine further includes a cooler including a spoiler and at least one cooler panel projecting above a roof of the nacelle. A heliplatform includes a support structure extending from the nacelle and at least partially integrated with the cooler. The wind turbine may also include a crane coupled to the nacelle and configured to move between a first stowed position underneath the nacelle roof and a second operational position. In the operational position, the crane is selectively positionable over the heliplatform. A method of using the wind turbine and crane is also disclosed.
