Blade for a wind turbine and a method for manufacturing a blade for a wind turbine

A blade for a wind turbine defines an airfoil with a leading edge section and a trailing edge section, notably a flat-back trailing edge. A rounded connecting section interconnects a pressure side section of the airfoil and the trailing edge section. The rounded connecting section attaches to the pr...

Zusammenfassung:	A blade for a wind turbine defines an airfoil with a leading edge section and a trailing edge section, notably a flat-back trailing edge. A rounded connecting section interconnects a pressure side section of the airfoil and the trailing edge section. The rounded connecting section attaches to the pressure side section at a transition point, in which the pressure side section's tangent does not coincide with the rounded connecting section's tangent, so that the outer surface of the airfoil has a sharp corner at said transition point. The truncated radius, i.e. geometrical discontinuity, thus formed at the transition between the pressure side section and the trailing edge section increases the aerodynamically effective surface of the pressure side and enables forced and hence controlled flow separation without compromising ease of manufacture and structural stability of a fiber-reinforced structure making up a shell of the blade.
