Abstract
Wind power technology has been widely used due to its characteristics of environmental protection, sustainability and low cost. The yaw system plays a vital role in improving the energy capture efficiency of a wind turbine. However, the method of layout determination is lacking in the yaw system. To solve this problem, a method that combines the Delphi method and the analytic hierarchy process was proposed in this study. Twelve evaluation indexes, including transmission efficiency, ratio range, operating temperature range and others, were identified by screening 18 technical indicators using the Delphi method. Subsequently, the evaluation system of the yaw system was established. Then, six configuration schemes were selected. Experts’ scores of schemes were collected according to the evaluation system and the score matrix of evaluation indexes was obtained. The hierarchical model of the evaluation indexes of the yaw system was established and the comprehensive weight was obtained by using the analytic hierarchy process. After calculating the comprehensive evaluation score, the comprehensive evaluation result was obtained. The 2Z-X(A) negative mechanism, which achieved the highest score of 0.9227, is the optimal scheme. A new method and specific process are provided for designers. The research gap in the scheme selection method for yaw systems is filled.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
