Wind Turbine Humidity Issues, Design & Solutions

• What are the benefits of controlling humidity and salt in a wind turbine?
• What kind of humidity-induced problems can I face in a wind turbine?
• Is mould a problem in a wind turbine?
• When is salt a problem, and why is it a problem?
• What corrosion class can I achieve in my wind turbine with a CWO (adsorption dehumidifier) installed in the turbine under good sealing?
• Is there any difference between onshore and offshore problems?
• Why can't I add more ventilation to the wind turbine? Will that not solve my issues with humidity?
• How dense is the structure of the turbine?
• Can I get specific areas of the turbines protected against moisture and salt?
• Does dry-out time after grid-loss cause loss in production?
• What are the overall strategies to protect a wind turbine from unwanted humidity?
• Besides in the turbine itself, can other parts of a wind farm be protected with a dehumidifier?
