Rain Erosion Maps for Wind Turbines Based on Geographical Locations: A Case Study in Ireland and Britain

Abstract Erosion rates of wind turbine blades are not constant, and they depend on many external factors including meteorological differences relating to global weather patterns. In order track the degradation blades, it is important analyse distribution change in conditions across country. This case study addresses rainfall Western Europe using UK Ireland data create a relationship between erosion rate for both countries. match appropriate data, 2 months annual were chosen, analysed. The month highest rain, January least May selected study. two variables then combined with other hailstorm events locations farms general overview relation blades.
