Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a wind turbine blade and a method of operating a wind turbine.
  • the rotor of a modern wind turbine produces a high tip speed for the blades of the rotor.
  • the aerofoil profiles at various sections along the blades should be selected to achieve a high lift to drag ratio in order to produce a high power coefficient for a rotor operating at relatively high tip speeds.
  • a high power coefficient improves the annual energy production of the wind turbine.
  • a first aspect of the invention provides a wind turbine blade comprising a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, a suction surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, and an aerofoil section bounded by the pressure surface and the suction surface, wherein the aerofoil section has at least one rearward facing step between the leading edge and the trailing edge.
  • the rearward facing step has a face, an outer edge and an inner edge and defines a cavity behind the step.
  • the step may be considered as a cut back, or surface discontinuity, as compared with an aerofoil having continuous pressure and suction surfaces.
  • the outer edge is where the step face meets with the pressure or suction surface, whichever of those surfaces has the cut back.
  • the invention is advantageous in that the rearward facing step promotes rotation of the flow off the outer edge of the step.
  • the resultant vortex may then become trapped in the cavity behind the step as the separated flow caused by the step reattaches itself downstream of the step.
  • the step may cause an increase in pressure in the flow field adjacent the trapped vortex due to flow attachment, or re-attachment, due to the increased energy of the vortex.
  • the increase in pressure adjacent the vortex may contribute to an increase in lift.
  • the flow re attachment may contribute to an increase in lift. In both cases the step may cause a small increase in drag, but the net effect may be an increase in the lift to drag ratio of the aerofoil.
  • a second aspect of the invention provides a method of operating a wind turbine comprising a plurality of blades, each blade having a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, a suction surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, and an aerofoil section bounded by the pressure surface and the suction surface, wherein the aerofoil section has at least one rearward facing step, and wherein the at least one rearward facing step has one or more apertures, the method comprising ejecting air from the one or more apertures into a cavity immediately behind the step.
  • ejecting air from the aperture into the cavity behind the step may further advantageously affect the flow field around the aerofoil.
  • the ejected air may energize the flow, strengthening the vortex in the cavity.
  • the strengthened vortex may promote flow attachment, or re attachment of separated flow, reducing drag. Reducing drag in this way may increase the lift to drag ratio of the aerofoil.
  • the at least one rearward facing step may be provided on the pressure surface.
  • the at least one rearward facing step may be provided on the suction surface.
  • a plurality of rearward facing steps, at least one on the pressure and at least one on the suction surface, may be provided on the same blade at different spanwise locations.
  • the blade may have a root end and a tip end opposite the root end in a spanwise direction of the blade, and the at least one rearward facing step may extend in the spanwise direction.
  • the rearward facing step may extend full span or part span in the spanwise direction.
  • the aerofoil section may have a thickness and a chordwise direction extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, and the rearward facing step may have a height at least 10% of the aerofoil section thickness immediately forward of the step in the chordwise direction.
  • the rearward facing step may have sharp edges, e.g. at the inner edge and/or the outer edge.
  • the aerofoil section may be generally in the class known as a 'Kline-Fogleman' or KF aerofoil.
  • the rearward facing step may have one or more apertures for ejecting air into a cavity immediately behind the step.
  • the blade may further comprise one or more conduits for conveying air through the blade and to exit via the one or more apertures.
  • the one or more conduits may extend generally spanwise along the blade.
  • the blade may have a root end and a tip end, and the blade may further comprise one or more inlets adjacent the root end at a location remote from the one or more apertures.
  • the method may further comprise ingesting air through the one or more inlets and ejecting the ingested air through the one or more apertures.
  • the inlets at the root end may be located just downstream of the expected flow separation line. Ingesting the separated air flow through the inlets may reduce the amount of separated air flow at the root end and may reduce the amount of turbulent flow that can feed into the spanwise flow near the trailing edge of the blade outboard of the root end, so reducing drag and increasing the lift to drag ratio of the blade.
  • the one or more inlets may be in the pressure surface of the blade adjacent the root end, and/or in the suction surface of the blade adjacent the root end, and/or in a hub connection interface adjacent the root end for conveying air into the blade from a hub.
  • the one or more inlets in either the pressure surface or the suction surface of the blade may be at a location remote from the one or more apertures.
  • the method may further comprise ingesting air through the one or more inlets and ejecting the ingested air through the one or more apertures.
  • the blade may further comprise an aperture controller for actively controlling one or more of the apertures to vary the flow rate or direction of the air ejected into the cavity.
  • a further aspect of the invention provides a wind turbine comprising a plurality of blades according to the first aspect.
  • the wind turbine may further comprise a hub to which the plurality of blades are attached.
  • the hub may have one or more inlets.
  • the method may further comprise ingesting air through the one or more hub inlets and ejecting the ingested air through the one or more apertures.
  • the method may further comprise passively conveying air from the inlet(s) to the aperture(s) by centrifugal force generated from rotation of the blades.
  • the method may further comprise actively controlling one or more of the apertures to vary the flow rate or direction of the air ejected into the cavity.

  • spanwise is used to refer to a direction from a root end of a wind turbine blade to a tip end of the blade, or vice versa.
  • spanwise and radial directions will be substantially the same.
  • Figure 1 shows a wind turbine 1 including a nacelle 2 supported on a tower 3 that is mounted on a foundation 4.
  • the wind turbine 1 depicted here is an onshore wind turbine such that the foundation 4 is embedded in the ground, but the wind turbine 1 could be an offshore installation in which case the foundation 4 would be provided by a suitable marine platform, such as a monopile or jacket.
  • the nacelle 2 supports a rotor 5 comprising a hub 6 to which three blades 7 are attached.
  • the wind turbine 1 is the common type of horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) such that the rotor 5 is mounted at the nacelle 2 to rotate about a substantially horizontal axis defined at the centre at the hub 6.
  • HAWT horizontal axis wind turbine
  • the blades 7 are acted on by the wind which causes the rotor 5 to rotate about its axis thereby operating generating equipment through a gearbox (not shown) that is housed in the nacelle 2.
  • the generating equipment is not shown in figure 1 since it is not central to the examples of the invention.
  • Each of the blades 7 has a root end 8 proximal to the hub 6 and a tip end 9 distal from the hub 6.
  • a leading edge 10 and a trailing edge 1 1 extend between the root end 8 and tip end 9, and each of the blades 7 has a respective aerodynamic high pressure surface (i.e. the pressure surface) and an aerodynamic low pressure surface (i.e. the suction surface) surface extending between the leading 10 and trailing edges 1 1 of the blade 7.

  • the pressure surface 12 extends generally rearwardly from the leading edge 10 to a surface discontinuity or step 14.
  • the step 14 has a face 15, an outer edge 16 and an inner edge 17.

  • the inner edge 17 is where the face 15 meets a base 18, or floor, of a cavity 19 formed behind the face 15 of the step 14.
  • the base 18 extends rearwardly towards the trailing 1 1 of the aerofoil section.
  • the step 14 is located between the leading edge 10 and the trailing edge 1 1.
  • the step 14 is thus a discontinuity in the pressure surface 12 and is located some distance forward of the trailing edge 1 1.
  • the outer edge 16 and the inner edge 17 are relatively sharp corners in the example illustrated in figure 3.
  • the outer edge 16 is a convex corner and the inner edge 17 is a concave corner.
  • a small radius at the outer edge 16 promotes flow separation and the formation of a vortex within the cavity 19.
  • a small radius at the inner edge 17 may further promote the creation of a smaller secondary vortex adjacent to the inner edge 17.
  • the inner edge 17 may have a larger radius.

It will be appreciated that the height of the step may be varied and tailored to optimise the aerodynamic objective of the aerofoil section.

  • the step 14 may extend part-span or full-span in the spanwise direction.
  • the face 15 of the step 14 is generally planar extending substantially linearly when viewed in plan view as shown in figure 4. However in alternative examples the face 15 may be curved in either the thickness or spanwise directions.

  • a shoulder 22 of the blade is located at the spanwise location of maximum chord length.
  • the inlets 21 are located between the root end 8 and the shoulder 22. Aerodynamic bodies of circular cross section inevitably cause separated flow. In the transition region of the blade, between the circular root end section and the shoulder 22, management of the separated/separating flow can reduce drag.
  • the air inlets 21 near the root end 8 can ingest separated or separating flow back through the suction surface 13, thus reducing flow separation at the root end and reducing the amount of turbulent flow that can feed into the spanwise flow near the trailing edge 1 1 .

  • a valve 24 on the conduit 23 may be opened and closed and used to selectively allow a flow of air through the conduit 23.
  • the system shown in figure 9 takes advantage of the centrifugal force generated as the blade 7 rotates during operation of the turbine 1 .
