Abstract[English]
A fluid tank (12) for a wind turbine (2), the tank (12) comprising: a housing (14) enclosing 5 an interior volume (16) for holding liquid, the housing (14) comprising a vent (36) positioned above a maximum liquid surface level in the interior volume (16), to permit air flow between the interior volume (16) and the surrounding environment, in use; a barrier (38, 138, 238) extending across the interior volume (16) to divide the interior volume (16) into an upper volume (40) and a lower volume (42), wherein the barrier (38, 138, 238) is disposed 10 beneath a minimum liquid surface level in the interior volume (16). At least one passage (62, 68) is provided in the barrier (38, 138, 238) to allow fluids to flow between the upper and lower volumes (40, 42); and at least one opening (28, 32) through which liquid can be communicated into or out of the lower volume.[French]
L'invention concerne un réservoir de fluide (12) pour une éolienne (2). Ledit réservoir (12) comprend : un carter (14) renfermant un volume interne (16) destiné à contenir un liquide, le carter (14) comprenant un évent (36) positionné au-dessus d'un niveau de surface de liquide maximal dans le volume interne (16), pour permettre un écoulement d'air entre le volume interne (16) et l'environnement ambiant, lors de l'utilisation ; une barrière (38, 138, 238) s'étendant à travers le volume interne (16) pour le diviser en un volume supérieur (40) et un volume inférieur (42), la barrière (38, 138, 238) étant disposée sous un niveau de surface liquide minimal dans le volume interne (16). Au moins un passage (62, 68) est disposé dans la barrière (38, 138, 238) pour permettre aux fluides de circuler entre les volumes supérieur et inférieur (40, 42) ; et au moins une ouverture (28, 32) à travers laquelle un liquide peut être communiqué dans ou hors du volume inférieur.
