Patent abstract
A wind turbine includes a closed loop hydrostatic transmission. The rotor is directly coupled to a low-speed high torque hydraulic motor, which is pressure-reversible to act as a pump. A variable displacement, pressure compensated hydrostatic transmission receives the hydraulic fluid output and drives a generator. The hydrostatic transmission and the generator may be compactly located in the nacelle of wind turbine tower.
