Abstract
It is clear that the problem of energy is the biggest problem faces our world in the near future. To solve this problem the world has to develop new energy sources or increase the efficiency of the existing ones. The wind energy is considered as one of the most promising renewable energy resources. The wind turbine uses mechanical gears to transfer the mechanical torque and speed to the generator unit. The existing types of gear have many disadvantages such as higher energy loss and higher acoustic noise, need frequently maintenance, need higher volume. This paper presents a new design of a magnetic gear for the wind turbine that replaces the existed mechanical gear and avoids most of the above problems. The proposed magnetic gear has free friction, no acoustic noise, and minimum volume. It is reliable and more efficient.
