The soft-starter is a simple and cheap electrical component used in fixed-speed wind turbines during their connection to the grid. Ventilation is typically done through the use of an air inlet, air outlet/exhaust fan, and/or other ventilation openings. One such approach was the attachment of a shroud around a horizontal axis wind. . Horizontal-axis wind turbine designs often included gearboxes or large direct-drive generators to compensate for the low peripheral speeds of the turbine hub. To take advantage of high blade tip speeds, an alternative generator configuration could employ a stator positioned in a shroud on the. .
