主权项 1. A lubrication system for a fluid turbine gearbox, the lubrication system comprising: a supply subsystem for providing oil via an oil tank or a hydraulic accumulator to a gearbox of the fluid turbine for lubrication during at least one of idling or loss of electric grid; and at least one solenoid valve for allowing oil to flow from the supply subsystem to the gearbox in the absence of electricity being supplied to the at least one solenoid valve for converting a dry sump gearbox to a wet sump gearbox and providing splash lubrication; a control subsystem for providing electricity to the at least one solenoid valve to maintain the at least one solenoid valve in a closed position when no idling or loss of electric grid conditions are occurring.
