Turbine specific fatigue life prediction model for wind turbine blade coatings subjected to rain erosion

How Leading Edge Roughness Influences Rain Erosion of Wind Turbine Blades?

“…However, few numerical studies have focused on what happens when rain drops impact damaged surfaces. The study by Kaore et al [30] is an example where impact stress in a surface defect is examined, among few others concerned with surface irregularities [31,32]. There are some experimental studies for the influence of surface roughness on liquid erosion performance [33,34].…”
