[0014] The above and / or additional aspects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent and readily understood from the following description of the embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:

[0017] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0018] It should be noted that wind resources refer to energy resources that are converted into electricity through wind power generation technology. Wind energy is a renewable, clean, and low-carbon energy source widely used in power generation, heating, and mechanical power. Wind energy is generated by the movement of air in Earth's atmosphere, typically driven by factors such as pressure differences, Earth's rotation, and topography. Areas on Earth's surface, such as coastlines, hills, grasslands, and deserts, generally have better wind resources. Wind power generation technology uses wind turbines to convert wind energy into mechanical energy, and then into electrical energy. Wind power generation technology has become increasingly mature, and wind power plants have been widely constructed around the world. With the development of the wind power industry, more and more wind farms are being built in cold and humid regions, such as plateaus, which has led to the problem of blade icing. Blade icing can reduce turbine efficiency, shorten the lifespan of the blades themselves, and even cause blade breakage.
[0019] In related technologies, deicing can be achieved by heating, using various thermal energies to heat objects, and deicing the surface by electrically heating electrical components and metal devices on the surface of the fuselage. However, the deicing efficiency needs to be improved.
[0020] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a blade of a wind turbine generator set.
[0021] Figure 1 This is a block diagram of the blade structure of a wind turbine generator set provided by the embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 1 As shown, the blade of the wind turbine generator set in the embodiment of the present invention includes a blade body 2 and a blade surface cover 1. A web 3 is installed in the internal cavity of the blade body 2 along the longitudinal range of the blade body, and the web 3 divides the internal cavity of the blade body 2 into an air inlet channel 4 and a return channel 5; the blade surface cover 1 is sealed and covers the outer surface of the blade body 2 in whole or in part along the longitudinal range of the blade body from the tip area, and there is a gap between the inner surface of the blade surface cover 1 and the outer surface of the blade body 2; the outer wall of the air inlet channel 4 and the outer wall of the return channel 2 are both provided with a plurality of openings, and the plurality of openings are all located in the area covered by the blade surface cover 1. Figure 1 As shown, the outer wall of the air inlet channel 4 is provided with a plurality of air inlet holes 6 , and the outer wall of the return channel 5 is provided with a plurality of air outlet holes 7 .
[0022] In some embodiments of the present invention, a heating device may be provided inside the blade body 2. During heating, the high-temperature gas inside the blade body 2 enters the air inlet channel 4 and passes through the multiple air inlet holes 6 on the outer wall of the air inlet channel 4. The high-temperature gas enters the gap between the inner surface of the blade surface cover 1 and the outer surface of the blade body 2 and is evenly distributed in the gap between the inner surface of the blade surface cover 1 and the outer surface of the blade body 2. The high-temperature gas in the gap heats the outer surface of the blade surface cover 1 to melt the ice on the surface of the blade surface cover 1. The cooled gas enters the return channel 5 through the multiple air outlet holes 7 provided on the outer wall of the return channel 5, and returns to the heating device through the return channel 5 to be heated again to achieve gas reflux.
[0023] In some embodiments, since the tip area of the blade is most susceptible to ice formation, the tip area of the blade body is completely covered by the blade surface cover. The blade surface cover 1 may cover the entire outer surface of the blade body 2, or may only cover the area from the middle of the blade to the tip, that is, cover the area of the blade that is most susceptible to ice formation.
[0024] In some embodiments, the web 3 is mounted in the longitudinal extent of the blade body 2 and is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the blade body 2. The web 3 not only stabilizes the blade body 2 but also separates the internal cavity of the blade body 2 into the inlet channel 4 and the return channel 5.
[0025] In some embodiments, the web 3 is configured to be thermally insulating to reduce heat loss during gas transmission in the air inlet passage 4 .
[0026] In some embodiments, to improve heat transfer, the blade cover 1 is constructed from a heat-conductive material with a thermal conductivity greater than that of the outer surface of the blade body 2. As an example, the blade cover 1 can be constructed from a lightweight metal such as aluminum, or a heat-conductive shell material such as graphite or Kevlar fiber mat. In some embodiments, the blade cover 1 can be at least partially constructed from a heat-conductive material. For example, the blade cover 1 can also include a corresponding high-conductivity powder or granules, or a heat-conductive fiber material and / or heat-conductive resin used to harden glass fiber reinforced plastics.
[0027] Because the blade tip is prone to ice formation, multiple openings are located in the outer wall of the air inlet passage 4, located in the tip of the blade body 2, to improve de-icing efficiency. If ice forms in the tip, the high-temperature gas passing through the openings can directly heat the blade surface film in the tip area, thereby increasing the heating rate and improving de-icing efficiency.
[0028] In some embodiments, because the leading edge region of the blade is more susceptible to ice formation, the leading edge region and the trailing edge region of the blade body can be separated by a web 3. The outer wall of the inlet channel 4 includes the leading edge region of the blade body 2, and the outer wall of the return channel 5 includes the trailing edge region of the blade body 2. The multiple openings provided on the outer wall of the inlet channel are located in the leading edge region of the blade tip, and the multiple openings provided on the outer wall of the return channel are located in the trailing edge region of the blade tip, that is, the inlet opening 6 is located in the leading edge region of the blade tip, and the outlet opening 7 is located in the trailing edge region of the blade tip. In this way, because high-temperature gas flows through the inlet channel, the high-temperature gas passing through the multiple openings in the leading edge region of the blade tip heats the blade surface cover corresponding to the leading edge region of the blade, thereby accelerating the melting of ice in the leading edge region of the blade. The gas after heat exchange enters the return channel through the multiple openings in the trailing edge region of the blade tip.
[0029] According to the blades of the wind turbine generator set in the embodiment of the present invention, the web divides the internal cavity of the blade body into an air inlet channel and a return channel, the blade surface sleeve covers the outer surface of the blade body, and the outer walls of the air inlet channel and the return channel are provided with multiple openings. That is to say, during heating, the hot air flow can enter the gap between the outer surface of the blade body and the inner surface of the blade surface sleeve from the air inlet channel through the openings on the outer wall of the air inlet channel, and melt the ice on the surface of the blade surface sleeve by heat exchange with the blade surface sleeve, which not only improves the heating efficiency, but also makes the heating more uniform, thereby improving the de-icing efficiency.
[0030] In order to improve the heat transfer efficiency, Figure 2 As shown, a baffle 8 is installed inside the blade body along the cross section of the blade body, and the baffle 8 is arranged in the tip area near the blade body 2. At least one inlet hole 9 is provided in the area of the baffle 8 located in the air inlet channel 4, and at least one return hole 10 is provided in the area of the baffle 8 located in the return channel 5. An exhaust device is installed at at least one return hole 10. In this way, the high-temperature gas in the air inlet channel 4 converges at the inlet hole 9 and flows out, and enters the gap between the inner surface of the blade surface film 1 and the outer surface of the blade body 2 through the multiple air inlet holes 6 on the outer wall of the air inlet channel 4 to heat the blade surface film 1, thereby melting the ice, and the cooled gas enters the return channel 5 through the multiple air outlet holes 7 on the outer wall of the return channel 5, and returns through the return hole 10. In other words, adding the baffle 8 and the exhaust device can improve the heat exchange efficiency by increasing the gas flow rate.
