Ultrasonic Shear Wave Anti-Icing System for Helicopter Rotor Blades
A new conceptual non-thermal anti-icing system for helicopter rotor blades is introduced. Theoretical calculations predict that certain ultrasonic modes generated by horizontal shear waves produce sufficient interface stresses between a host structure and ice to remove the accreted ice layer. Experimentally obtained ultrasonic shear dispersion curves are compared to theoretical predictions for ...
متن کاملOptimizing the Layout of Heaters for Distributed Active De-icing of Wind Turbine Blades
Ice accumulation on wind turbines operating in cold regions reduces power generation by degrading aerodynamic efficiency and causes mass imbalance and fatigue loads on the blades. Due to blade rotation and variation of the pitch angle, different locations on each blade experience large variations of Reynolds number, Nusselt number, heat loss, and non-uniform ice distribution. Hence, applying di...
متن کاملMaterials for Wind Turbine Blades: An Overview
A short overview of composite materials for wind turbine applications is presented here. Requirements toward the wind turbine materials, loads, as well as available materials are reviewed. Apart from the traditional composites for wind turbine blades (glass fibers/epoxy matrix composites), natural composites, hybrid and nanoengineered composites are discussed. Manufacturing technologies for win...

متن کاملWind Turbine Performance Under Icing Conditions
Department of Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 306 Talbot Laboratory, 104 S. Wright Street Urbana. IL 61801-2935 The effects of rime ice on horizontal axis wind turbine performance were estimated. For typzcal supercooled fog conditions found in cold northern regions, four rime ice accretwns on the 5809 wmd turbine airfoil were predicted usi...
