Factors and structural parameters of coatings influencing the efficiency of protective coating systems against rain erosion of wind turbine blades are reviewed. The possibilities to enhance the attenuation of wave energy from droplet impact, increase damping and varying stiffness, creating interfaces for wave reflection, adding reinforcement for wave scattering, and creating additional layers or skeleton‐like reinforcing or wave absorbing structures, are discussed in the paper. Formulas for quantitative estimation of these effects as well as qualitative relationships between the structural parameters of coatings and their performance are presented. Recommendations and promising directions for the improvement of the protective coating systems for rain erosion protection of wind turbine blades are presented.

“…Apart from this complexity in simulating rain itself due to size, shape, and velocity of raindrops, the modelling of the rain as an erosive phenomenon is still lacking the proper solutions. The studies to find models of the rain as erosive phenomenon have been carried out mainly using traditionally two different approaches, ie, the approaches have been considering the impact force or the energy transmitted …”

Developments in the wind industry reveal intricate engineering challenges, one of them being the erosion on the leading edge of the wind turbine blades. In this review work, the main issues for the wind industry in the experimentation with respect to erosion are examined. After a historical and general overview of erosion, this review focuses on the rain erosion on the leading edge of the wind turbine blades giving prominence to (1) the rain simulations, (2) experimental erosion facilities, and (3) variables to characterise erosion. These three factors have to be improved to establish a research field enabling the prediction of erosion behaviour and providing useful information about how the rainfall affects the leading edge of the wind turbine blades. Moreover, these improvements in the experimentation of the erosion would be a first step to understand and predict the erosion damage of the wind turbine blades. Finally, this review work also will help to cope with experimental investigations and results in the rain erosion on the leading edge with a deeper critical thinking for future researchers.

“…Early studies have shown that erosive wear resistance is proportional to material toughness, hence ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) erodes more slowly than polyester resin [68]. As can be seen from equation (11.19) the dependence of wear rate on impact velocity is extreme.…”
