Application Profile Custom Cooling System Wind Turbines Product Application P-8719-SV 3/19 A Korean wind turbine manufacturer needed a compact solution to cool the generator and converter inside its 4 MW turbines. High temperatures inside turbine nacelles can negatively impact the turbine component performance over time. Svendborg Brakes’ engineers traveled to Korea to meet with the OEM’s engineering team and design a custom cooling system that met the specific 4 MW turbine requirements. The free-standing Svendborg Brakes cooling system, including a pump, motor and valve manifold, pumps coolant through the generator, converter and heat exchanger positioned on top of the nacelle. The system creates a constant, controlled temperature inside the nacelle to ensure optimum turbine o
