More Information
Summary:A main rotor shaft of a wind turbine configured to reducing contact pressure at a hub-joint connection includes a flanged portion and a rod portion. The flanged portion includes an outer circumferential edge, an outer radial area, and an inner radial area. The outer radial area includes holes placed around the outer radial area for attachment to a wind turbine hub. The outer circumferential edge includes a groove placed atop the outer circumferential edge. The rod portion is formed with the inner radial area and configured for connection to a gearbox of a wind turbine
