Wind energy

is the electric frequency of the system that can be measured in all network areas of the synchronous area under the assumption of a coherent value for the system in a timeframe of seconds (with minor ...

Tertiary control

Energy; Wind energy

is any automatic or manual change in the working points of generators (mainly by rescheduling) in order to restore an adequate secondary control reserve at the right time. The power that can be ...

Thrust curve

Energy; Wind energy

a graph which shows the force applied by the wind at the top of the tower as a function of wind speed.

Tip speed

Energy; Wind energy

speed (in m/s) of the blade tip through the air.

ransformer

Energy; Wind energy

a piece of electrical equipment used to step up or down the voltage of an electrical signal. Most turbines have a dedicated transformer to step up their voltage output to the grid voltage.

Transient stability

Energy; Wind energy

is the ability of an electric system to maintain synchronism between its parts when subjected to a disturbance of specified severity and to regain a state of equilibrium following that disturbance.
