Abstract: This study aims to theoretically investigate the dynamic behavior of the conventional power transmission mechanism in horizontal-axis wind turbines. For this purpose, a new theoretical model was developed by evaluating the non-dimensional design parameters described. With this model, different non-dimensional parameters called the generator torque (TG) and the coefficient of effectiveness (Kt) were defined for the purpose of estimating the power transmitted to the generator.

Keywords:  wind energy, wind turbine, power transmission, dynamic analysis, theoretical model.
