Abstract

The gearbox for wind turbine have been increased the size by the wind turbine is needed to produce bigger power. The optimal sizing for gearbox is demanded because of limited space on the nacelle. The volume and weight for the gearbox are influenced especially for size of it. Therefore, the purpose of this study investigates the design characteristics considering types of gear train structure for optimizing the volume and weight of the gearbox.
