Effects of surface curvature on rain erosion of wind turbine blades under high-velocity impact

Rain erosion induced by raindrops impacting wind turbine blades at high velocity can change the aerodynamic characteristics of the blades and increase maintenance costs. Previous numerical studies on rain erosion have not considered the curvature of the blade leading-edge surfaces and assumed them t...
