Experimental Research and Simulation Analysis of Lightning Ablation Damage Characteristics of Megawatt Wind Turbine Blades

In this paper, the damage mechanism of glass fiber reinforced composite (GFRC) under lightning strike by laying and inserting copper wires in the laminate was studied. The ablation characteristics of GFRC under different lightning current components were explored. Scanning electron microscope (SEM)...
