Wind turbine blade
TLDR
In this article, a wind turbine blade is made up of a number of modules connected to one another primarily via overlapping shear webs, and each beam has a longitudinal web and a flange at either longitudinal edge.Abstract:
A spar ( 30 ) for a wind turbine blade. The spar comprises a plurality (typically three or more) beams ( 33 ) arranged side-by-side. Each beam has a longitudinal web ( 32 ), a flange ( 31 ) at either longitudinal edge. The spar may be made up of a number of modules connected to one another primarily via overlapping shear webs.read more
