Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electrothermal film technology, specifically relating to an electrothermal layer with PTC effect, its preparation method, and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Wind power generation refers to converting the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. Wind energy is a clean and pollution-free renewable energy source. A wind turbine is a device that converts wind energy into mechanical work, which drives a rotor to rotate and ultimately outputs alternating current (AC) electricity. A wind turbine generally consists of components such as wind turbine blades, a generator, a deflector, a tower, a speed limiting safety mechanism, and an energy storage device.
[0003] The working principle of a wind turbine is relatively simple. The turbine blades rotate under the influence of wind, converting the kinetic energy of the wind into the mechanical energy of the turbine shaft. The generator then rotates under the drive of the turbine shaft to generate electricity. The turbine blades are one of the most important driving mechanisms in a wind turbine. The structure and stability of the turbine blades during operation have a significant impact on the overall efficiency of the wind turbine. In extremely cold climates, because the turbine blades cannot maintain high-speed rotation for extended periods, their surfaces easily freeze, altering their operating state and severely affecting the overall efficiency and stability of the wind turbine. Therefore, quickly removing ice from the turbine blades is a primary challenge for wind turbines used in frigid environments.
[0004] Traditional methods include surface de-icing via vibration or manual methods. These methods require manual monitoring and control, are difficult to detect and implement promptly, are costly, and have limited applicability. Electrothermal de-icing utilizes the electrothermal effect of conductive materials to heat the blade surface above freezing, achieving de-icing. This is currently the most effective de-icing method. However, during electrothermal de-icing, excessively high temperatures can lead to mechanical failure of the wind turbine blades, resulting in significant economic losses. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Based on the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides an electrothermal layer, its preparation method and application. The electrothermal layer has the characteristics of flexibility and overheat protection. When the heating temperature is too high, it can reduce the heating power by step increasing the resistance value, thereby reducing the heating temperature, preventing mechanical failure of the wind turbine blades, and achieving the purpose of overheat protection.
[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] An electrothermal layer comprising an electrothermal material, the electrothermal material comprising a conductive component, a substance containing hydroxyl and / or carboxyl groups, and a filler having a PTC effect; wherein the filler having a PTC effect is deposited on the surface of the conductive component and is connected to the conductive component through the substance containing hydroxyl and / or carboxyl groups.
[0008] In this invention, the PTC effect, or Positive Temperature Coefficient effect, refers to the property that the resistance of a material exhibits a step-like increase with rising material temperature. That is, within a certain temperature range, the higher the temperature, the greater the resistance. Research has found that this characteristic can be utilized to apply materials with the PTC effect to the electrothermal film on the surface of wind turbine blades. When the heating power of the electrothermal material is too high, leading to excessively high temperatures, the resistance can spontaneously increase, thereby reducing the heating power and achieving overheat protection to prevent blade damage.

It effectively removes ice from the surface of the wind turbine blades without damaging them due to the generated high temperatures.
