Salt Fog

Targeted at the phenomenon of offshore wind turbine blades cracking and tearing up, the corrosion mechanism on offshore wind turbine blade in salt fog environment is researched. By means of analyzing the blades structural damage and the corrosion in salt fog environment, the main damage forms of the blades can be summed up with a further view to discussing and analyzing the corrosion mechanism on offshore wind turbine blade in salt fog environment from the perspective of both physical and chemical corrosion. A final conclusion is reached which shows that the pitted surface of the blade developed from the pumping and milling of sand blown by wind is the incentive and hydrone diffusion and ultraviolet radiation are the main factors that lead to the aging of materials and corrosion of blades.

Offshore Wind Turbine

In recent years, several wind turbines have been installed in cold climate sites and are menaced by the icing phenomenon. This article focuses on two parts: the study of the aerodynamic and structural performances of wind turbines subject to atmospheric icing. Firstly, the aerodynamic analysis of NACA 4412 airfoil was obtained using QBlade software for a clean and iced profile. Finite element method (FEM) was employed using ABAQUS software to simulate the structural behavior of a wind turbine blade with 100 mm ice thickness. A comparative study of two composite materials and two blade positions were considered in this section. Hashin criterion was chosen to identify the failure modes and determine the most sensitive areas of the structure. It has been found that the aerodynamic and structural performance of the turbine were degraded when ice accumulated on the leading edge of the blade and changed the shape of its profile.
