Microcosmic Mechanism Investigation on Lightning Arc Damage of Wind Turbine Blades Based on Molecular Reaction Dynamics and Impact Current Experiment

PVC and balsa wood are usually used in the interlayer structures of wind turbine blades. In this paper, a comparative study on the lightning damage characteristics of the two materials was carried out by molecular dynamic simulations and impact current experiments. The simulations show that the glyc...
