Abstract As wind turbines become larger and move into deeper sea, their operating environment is getting more and more harsh, which puts higher stability requirements of the transmission chain. The mechanical-hydraulic hybrid transmission (MHHT) combines mechanical and hydraulic systems to improve transmission stability.
