The subject of this PhD Thesis is a very current subject due to intensive progress in applying
wind turbines around the world on one hand, and on the other hand due to their sensitivity to
atmospheric discharges and serious consequences that can arise. Wind turbines are tall and nonstandard
constructions with rotating elements, usually installed in locations at which the keraunic
level is very high and grounding conditions are bad, and as distributed sources of electrical energy
they are more prone to lightning stikes.
The most prominent parts of the wind turbines, e.g. long blades and nacelle are typically
made of composite materials, which cannot successfully withstand direct lightning strikes with
currents up to 200 kA, neither current disharge flow on their surface, during which a significant part
of this current at grounding has a path over or in vicinity of practically all vital components of the
wind turbine. Continuous development of protective wind turbine systems for atmosphe...ric
discharges has a remarkable significance in order to reduce negative consequences of mechanical
damages of blades, failure of electrical and electronic equipment and outage rate.
Original theoretical discussions, applying software numerical procedures and very
chalenging and financially demanding experimental testing enabled a high quality analysis to be
preformed in the PhD Thesis regarding direct atmospheric discharges and to significally contribute
to the subject. The research conducted during work on this PhD Thesis are rather complex due to
nature of the events that are the subject of the research and non-standard ways of testing and at the
same time multidisciplinary because they involve a good knowledge of the following fields: highvoltage
technique, wind energy, atmospheric discharge physics and lightning protection.
In the first part of this thesis the increasing significance that wind turbines have in
contemporary decentralized EES, an overview of actual state and standards with regards to
atmospheric discharges into wind turbines, and the specifics of the methods of their lighting
protections have been pointed out. The main parts of the modern wind turbine are shown, because
the wind turbine is a very complex device, and special attention is paid to the analysis of
characteristics and means of protection of components through which the main part of the
discharge current flows. Different principles for protection of composite materials from
atmospheric discharges are discussed and explanations on which types of composites can be used to
construct wind turbine blades and to what extent. An overview is given of the relevant parameters
and characteristics of direct atmospheric discharges, which typically happen on wind turbine in
service.
The general principle of lightning protection of wind turbines is discussed in the thesis,
based on determination of the necessary level of protection of electrical installation for lightning
protection. Four levels of protection are analyzed, and for each of them criteria are defined which
need to be meet by each element of the lightning protection system. The testing of these criteria
needs to enable the probability of efficient work of protection is within predefined limits which are
characteristic for each level of protection. The proposed procedures for calculating evaluation
efficiency of lightning protection installation of wind turbine and striking distance based on which
the level of protection of the protected wind turbine is uniquely determined...
