发明名称 Rotor blade assembly for wind turbine
摘要 A rotor blade assembly is disclosed. The rotor blade assembly includes a rotor blade having exterior surfaces defining a pressure side, a suction side, a leading edge, and a trailing edge extending between a tip and a root. The rotor blade further defines a span and a chord. The rotor blade includes a skin layer that includes the exterior surfaces. The rotor blade assembly further includes a passive spoiler assembly operable to alter a flow past an exterior surface of the rotor blade. The spoiler assembly includes a spoiler feature movable between a non-deployed position and a deployed position. Movement of the spoiler feature from the non-deployed position to the deployed position is caused by a change in an applied force to the spoiler feature by the skin layer.

主权项 1. A rotor blade assembly, comprising: a rotor blade having exterior surfaces defining a pressure side, a suction side, a leading edge, and a trailing edge extending between a tip and a root, the rotor blade further defining a span and a chord, the rotor blade comprising a skin layer that includes the exterior surfaces; and, a passive spoiler assembly operable to alter a flow past an exterior surface of the rotor blade, the spoiler assembly comprising a spoiler feature movable between a non-deployed position and a deployed position and a biasing element providing a biasing force to the spoiler feature, wherein movement of the spoiler feature from the non-deployed position to the deployed position is caused by a change in an applied force to the spoiler feature by the skin layer.
