[A] wind turbine [whose] rotor revolutions are [kept] even by adjusting the blade angle. 11, record 3, English, - pitch%2Dregulated%20wind%20turbine
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
In the case of a system with blade-angle adjustment, the electronic controller constantly measures the system's power output. If this is too high, a command is sent to the blade-adjusting system with the result that the rotor blades are moved slightly out of the wind. When the wind drops, the blades are turned into the wind. It must therefore be possible to turn the rotor blades around their own longitudinal axis. 11, record 3, English, - pitch%2Dregulated%20wind%20turbine

Sur une éolienne contrôlée à calage variable (appelée aussi une éolienne à pas variable), le contrôleur électronique vérifie plusieurs fois par seconde la puissance de sortie de l'éolienne. En cas de puissance de sortie trop élevée, le contrôleur électronique de l'éolienne envoie une commande au dispositif de calage qui pivote immédiatement les pales légèrement sur le côté, hors du vent. Inversement, les pales seront pivotées de manière à pouvoir mieux capter de nouveau l'énergie du vent, dès que le vent aura baissé d'intensité. 3, record 3, French, - %C3%A9olienne%20%C3%A0%20pas%20variable

Givrage. Certaines conditions externes peuvent nécessiter l’adoption de systèmes particuliers, par exemple lorsque l’implantation se fait dans une région au climat froid ou en zone montagneuse. Le phénomène de givrage des pales doit alors être attentivement considéré. Non seulement l’accumulation de givre sur les pales dégrade significativement le rendement aérodynamique de celles-ci (l’accrétion de glace étant favorisée par la rotation), mais elle perturbe aussi le comportement dynamique du rotor (balourd) et peut conduire à des projections aux alentours. La masse de glace ajoutée en conditions givrantes sévères peut amener à la rupture statique d’une pale ou générer des problèmes de fatigue. 2, record 4, French, - givrage%20des%20pales%20d%27%C3%A9oliennes
