Qui "yaw" è tradotto con "imbardata" come nel campo nautico

In terms of apparatus, the invention provides a yaw lock which is useful in a wind turbine generator system in which a bladed rotor is rotatable about a substantially horizontal axis and is carried by a nacelle assembly which is rotatable about a substantially vertical yaw axis relative to a supporting tower atop which the nacelle assembly is carried. The yaw lock is releasibly attachable to the nacelle assembly and to the tower for essentially rigidly securing the nacelle from rotation about the yaw axis. Use of the yaw lock across the connection of the nacelle to its supporting tower facilitates accurate measurement of unbalance in the rotor.
