Surface roughness evolution of wind turbine blade subject to rain erosion
Leading edge erosion of wind turbine blades causes roughening of the blade’s surface, leading to a reduction of energy production. This paper presents a computational model for the prediction of the roughness evolution of the blade’s surface, based on fatigue damage calculations and rain droplet imp...
