Research on wind turbine blade coating erosion modeling based on Generic modeling

In order to improve the accuracy of the prediction of the erosion phenomenon of wind turbine blade coatings, this study incorporates the wind-sand erosion data of wind turbine blade coating flat specimens obtained through wind tunnel experiments on the basis of the widely used generalized erosion model. A prediction model that accurately reflects the erosion and wear characteristics of wind turbine blade coatings is constructed using the least squares method. All the function parts included in the model showed favorable fitting effects, and the error between the model prediction results and the measured data was limited to a tolerable range. Therefore, the model has proved to be effective in predicting the erosion rate of wind turbine blade coating materials, which provides a solid theoretical foundation for the numerical simulation of the erosion and wear of wind turbine blades in a two-phase wind-sand flow environment.
