Abstract
Nowadays, the main bearings of a wind turbine consist of a double-serial pendulum roller bearing as a fixed bearing. This is not an ideal solution. Under this aspect, the authors of the contribution under consideration report on a new configuration of bearings for rotor shafts in wind turbines. A combination of a double-serial tapered roller bearing and a cylinder roller bearing has clear advantages in relation to the use of two pendulum roller bearings: (1) Outstanding radial and axial load carrying capacity; (2) Improved load zone with a balanced distribution of load distribution and an optimized L10 lifetime; (3) Particularly good static and dynamic rigidity.
