  • Abstract
    A new electric machine topology is presented - the Harmonic Fields (HF) Generator - which is perfectly suited for wind applications. A wind turbine drive built around an HF generator has a higher energy yield than a turbine with conventional generator and frequency converter, is cheaper to build and requires less maintenance.
