  • the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for treatment, e.g. cleaning of a part of a wind turbine such as e.g. rotor blade on a wind turbine.
  • the rotor blades of a wind turbine may be so dirty from dust, salt coatings, dead insects, bird droppings and other surface coatings, that the efficiency of a given wind turbine may be reduced by 10 to 15% or even more depending on the relevant wind speed.
  • a special work platform with a through-going slit at the bottom has been fixed to these suspension means so that the rotor blade pointing downwards could be inserted into this slit.
  • the work platform has subsequently been hoisted upwards in a stepwise manner, while the crew has rinsed the surface of the rotor blade manually, e.g. with one person located on each side of the rotor blade.
  • the invention relates to a method for treatment, in particular cleaning, of a surface of a part of a wind turbine such as a rotor blade or a tower whereby - an apparatus and/or a platform is being placed in such a manner that it may be moved in relation to said surface, - a cleaning process is being performed on at least a part of said surface by said apparatus and/or by a person located on said platform,

  • carbon dioxide is also an environmentally friendly substance since it is naturally occurring as a by-product of natural processes and since cleaning with carbon dioxide will not add to global warming.
  • carbon dioxide is cheap and readily available, also caused by the fact that carbon dioxide is available as a by-product of industrial processes.

  • This system may be controlled from ground level, and means for, e.g. monitoring and inspecting the progress of the cleaning operation is provided in the form of a vision system, e.g. one or more video cameras (not shown) mounted on the carrier arrangement 70 and connected to display means in or at the vehicle 8. Further, such vision systems may be arranged to perform an automatic control of the operation of the apparatus.
  • Fig. 6 shows a similar carrier arrangement 70 as shown in fig. 5, suspended from anchoring means via wires 21. This carrier arrangement 70 is designed to climb up and down the wires 21, and as described above it may carry one or more application heads for performing a cleaning operation using carbon dioxide.
  • the carrier arrangement 70 may be designed as a part that provides sealing to the rotor blade 5 and thus provides a cleaning chamber that may be shaped as a ring or that may comprise an elongated chamber on each side of the rotor blade, whereby essentially the complete width of the rotor blade may be cleaned while the carrier arrangement travels up or down the rotor blade.
  • vision equipment will preferably be provided at the carrier arrangement 70.
  • Fig. 7 illustrates schematically an example of such an arrangement.
  • the carrier arrangement 70 is shown featuring several treatment zones, e.g. the illustrated zones 81, 82 and 83.
  • the zones 81 and 83 have been designed as areas with a number of nozzles or the like, which may spray carbon dioxide in any form, e.g. as dry ice pellets, in gaseous, liquid, supercritical or near- supercritical form, onto the surface of the rotor blade 5, and the zone 82 has been designed as a zone for mechanical cleaning, e.g. using rotating brushes.
  • Such a brushing zone may comprise a rotating brush positioned on each side of the rotor blade.
  • Such a rotating brush may be designed with a longitudinally extending middle part, upon which a number of long bristles may be located extending radial outwards.
  • the brush may be positioned with its longitudinal axis across the carrier 70 so that the bristles will brush the surface of the rotor blade, once the brush is rotated.
  • the carrier 70 comprises actuators, for instance electric motors, for driving the brushes, and potentially means for adjusting the distance to the rotor blade, if necessary. Sealing means will be positioned at the ends of the carrier arrangement 70.
  • the cleaning may be performed by means of dry ice blasting, i.e. a blasting method using small, compact dry ice pellets as a blasting material.
  • These pellets or ice crystals are made by letting pressurized carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), e.g. liquefied CO 2 escape through a nozzle whereby the liquid CO 2 is transformed to small pellets or crystals.
  • CO 2 pressurized carbon dioxide
  • These pellets may be accelerated in a jet of compressed air, e.g. similar to ordinary blasting methods, towards the surface, whereby a cleaning of the surface is performed.

  • the source of compressed air or the like may preferably be an air compressor situated on the vehicle or on the vessel.
  • the nozzles for blasting the dry ice pellets and preferably the container for carbon dioxide need to be located at the apparatus placed above ground level at the part of the wind turbine, e.g. the rotor blade, that is to be treated, e.g. cleaned.
  • the compressor for supplying the compressed air can be located at the ground, on the vehicle or on the vessel (in case of sea-based wind turbines), and one or more tubes can be connected to the nozzles.
  • the source of carbon dioxide e.g. containers for liquefied carbon dioxide, can be placed at the ground, on the vehicle or on the vessel and connected to the nozzles by means of tubes etc.
  • the necessary control equipment may also be located here. Such an arrangement will be able to provide effective cleaning of wind turbine parts, e.g. rotor blades, even at a considerable height, e.g. 100 meter above ground level and above, which has been confirmed by extensive testing.
  • the nozzles for blasting of the ice pellets e.g. the dry ice pellets may preferably be configured for being arranged controllably in relation to the surface, e.g. for being movably in the horizontal and/or the vertical direction in order to cover all parts of the surface.
  • a number of advantages are achieved when this method is used for cleaning the surface of a rotor blade.
  • the cleaning is very effective, e.g. caused by the high cleaning speed and the nature of the dry ice pellets.
  • the cleaning method is environmental-friendly since the dry ice is non-toxic (CO 2 is a natural part of the atmosphere) and since no waste material, e.g. water, cleaning solutions, blasting material remains etc. is produced apart from the dislodged dirt.
  • the surface treatment is non-abrasive and gentle to the surface of the rotor blade. Further, the transporting of a substantial amount of water and/or other cleaning agents, e.g. to the wind turbine site and to the apparatus located above ground level, e.g. on the rotor blade, is avoided.
  • the apparatus according to the invention need not be designed for carrying such heavy loads. Also, it is noted that with this method it is possible to adjust the treatment, e.g. the cleaning procedure to the surface in question by regulating the blasting pressure, e.g. the compressed air by means of which the dry ice pellets are blasted towards the surface.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour le traitement, notamment le nettoyage, d'une surface d'une partie d'une éolienne, telle qu'une pale rotor ou une tour. Un appareil et/ou une plate-forme est/sont placées, de sorte qu'il/elle puisse se déplacer par rapport à la surface, et un processus de nettoyage est mis en oeuvre sur au moins une partie de ladite surface par l'appareil et/ou une personne se trouvant sur ladite plate-forme, alors que l'appareil et/ou la plate-forme est/sont déplacé(e)s en plusieurs fois et/ou en continu. Ce nettoyage s'effectue au moyen de dioxyde de carbone (CO2), par exemple par l'envoi d'un flux de dioxyde de carbone (CO2) à au moins une buse se trouvant dans une tête d'application. Le procédé de l'invention permet un nettoyage efficace et sans danger pour l'environnement.
