With the maximization of wind power blades, the requirements on the blade structure are higher and higher, and the airfoil profile with large thickness and blunt trailing edge becomes the first choice of the airfoil profile at the end of the blade root. In the operation process of the wind turbine generator, boundary layer flow separation is easy to occur in a blade root area using a large-thickness airfoil, and then three-dimensional flow along the span direction of the blade is generated, so that the aerodynamic performance of the blade is reduced.

However, the holes are formed on the surface of the blade, so that the blade structure is damaged, and the hole forming direction of the surface of the blade is vertical to the surface of the blade, so that the speed direction of the discharged airflow is close to the direction of the incoming flow of the front edge of the blade, and the speed direction of the synthesized airflow forms a certain included angle with the surface of the blade, which is not beneficial to inhibiting flow separation.
