The main load-bearing structure of a wind turbine blade is the spar component. As discussed above, this component is either integrated into a structural shell as a spar cap, or constructed in parallel ...

LM Wind Power The scale of these mega wind turbine blades is breathtaking First, they make a glass-fibre and polyester shell for each blade - in two halves. Then the spar cap is added. That's a ...

With the ongoing trend of increasing wind blade lengths to enhance wind power, incorporating carbon fiber for making plates for spar caps has emerged as an effective strategy to improve the ...
