Abstract
Increasing the wear resistance of wind turbine structures by introducing reinforced polymer materials with lubricating components
Incoming article date: 12.05.2025The methods and approaches to reduce the wear of bearings and blades of electric generators are analyzed to increase the service life of the equipment, improve its reliability and efficiency. An analysis of the factors affecting wear is given, including mechanical, temperature and operational loads. Calculations are performed confirming the effectiveness of using modern materials, improved lubrication systems and optimized process modes. It is shown that the comprehensive implementation of the proposed solutions can significantly reduce the wear rate, reduce maintenance and repair costs, and ensure stable generator performance. The recommendations presented can serve as a basis for upgrading existing equipment and designing new power plants.
