Zusammenfassung:A winglet (120) for a rotor blade is disclosed. The winglet (120) may generally include a winglet body (122) extending between a first end (124) and a second end (128). The winglet body (122) may define a sweep (144) and may have a curvature defined by a curve fit including a first radius of curvature (154) and a second radius of curvature (156). The sweep (144) between the first end (124) and the second end (128) may range from about 580 millimeters to about 970 millimeters. Additionally, the first radius of curvature (154) may range from about 1500 millimeters to about 2500 millimeters and the second radius of curvature (156) may range from about 1200 millimeters to about 2000 millimeters.
