Description
Technical Field

[0002] Heated robots are usually automated devices designed to operate in extremely cold environments. They contain heating elements in their structures that help keep the robot and its sensitive components at normal operating temperatures in low temperatures. In the wind power industry, such robots can be used in a variety of application scenarios, including de-icing wind turbine blades. De-icing wind turbine blades is a very important maintenance procedure, mainly because ice accumulation can seriously affect the performance and safety of wind turbines. Ice coverage changes the aerodynamic shape of the blades, the so-called airfoil, resulting in reduced lift and increased drag. This can significantly reduce the efficiency and power generation of the wind turbine. Blade output power may drop in the case of light icing, while in the case of severe icing, the blade torque may drop to zero, causing the wind turbine to shut down completely.
