Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a heat dissipation system is provided on the nacelle to cool functional devices, then the safe operation of the wind generator set is ensured, but the design structure becomes complicated and cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the support function and heat dissipation function into a single integrated support platform. The support platform includes a support body with internal flow channels that guide cooling medium to cool functional devices mounted on it, eliminating the need for separate heat dissipation apparatus and reducing structural complexity while ensuring reliable operation
Solution Approach 2:
The support platform serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides mechanical support for functional devices, acts as a heat dissipation structure through integrated flow channels, and serves as a mounting base. This multi-functionality reduces the overall number of components and simplifies the design structure while maintaining reliability
