Manufacturing defects in wind turbine blades are Dry Spots It can be dry spots and even large whitish areas, which show the lack of resin in the laminate.Glass fibers are dry because they have not been properly impregnated with resin. Excess Resin Regions with excess resin are more fragile and can crack more easily, in…
Why on earth do all wind turbines have exactly three blades? ship propellers can manage with two – and one would immediately think that 4 or 5 blades would catch even more wind and therefore provide even more power. The 3-blade horizontal axis wind turbine is the most advantageous option, in several technical and operational…
