A wind turbine, including a main gear box, which is lubricated and/or cooled by oil, and a thermosiphon cooling system for cooling the oil is provided. The thermosiphon cooling system solves the main challenges facing the oil cooling systems in wind turbines. The high efficiency of the evaporation heat transfer mechanism gives the capacity to transfer the required heat load in relatively smaller size system. In this way, installation space is reduced. The thermosiphon cooling system has no service requirements over the lifetime of the wind turbine since the thermosiphon cooling system has no moving parts. Costs are saved since the simplicity of the thermosiphon cooling system adds a big value to the system business case.

A method and system are provided for cooling a heat-exchanger in a wind turbine that has an electric generator with a cooling air flow directed therethrough. Effluent cooling air flow from the electric generator is directed into an air ejector pump and acts as motive air through the air ejector pump.

The heat exchanger is disposed in-line with the cold air flow so that the cold air is drawn through the heat-exchanger, removes heat from the fluid circulated through the heat-exchanger, and becomes heated air that is combined with the motive air and discharged from the nacelle.
