[0002] Wind turbines are usually installed in areas with high altitudes, low temperatures, high humidity, and frequent thunderstorms. Especially in winter, as the temperature drops and the humidity increases, the outer surface of wind turbine blades is very easy to freeze. Ice on the blade surface often causes turbine vibration or power factor distortion and endangers the operation of the unit. Therefore, the unit must be shut down after freezing, causing a large amount of power generation losses to the wind farm.

[0003] The deicing of existing wind turbine blades is mainly achieved by adding heating elements inside or outside the blades to heat the blades. Generally, there are technical routes such as gas heating and electric heating. In addition, the conventional gas heating deicing system structure is difficult to apply to large-sized and large pre-bent blades, and has a small scope of application, which is not conducive to wide promotion and popularization.
