A novel lightning protection technique of wind turbine components

A novel lightning protection technique of wind turbine components

The lightning energy can be very harmful to wind turbine (WT) farm components; therefore an effective lightning protection technique is required. In this study, a novel technique for WT components protection is presented. This technique used ferromagnetic rings placed around the WT blade roots. Ferr...
