The aim of the paper is to present a planetary gearbox for wind turbine. At constant wind power input the planetary gearbox is able to provide variable speed of the output shaft. The main purpose of the differential transmission is on the capability to adapt the operation to variable loading of wind. A CAD model has been proposed in order to investigate the operation feasibility of the proposed design solution. A proper dynamic model has been developed in ADAMS software. Simulation tests have been carried out and results are discussed to validate the proposed design solution.
