Abstract

The RTM filling process of a wind turbine blade was simulated in 3D using the RTM simulation system to optimize its RTM process. The simulation results of two different injection ways are compared and analyzed to find the optimal injection means. As a result, line injection on the side of the blade is the better way. 8 simulations are carried out for different injection locations on the side to find the optimal injection location and reasonable outlet locations are ensured. Finally, The optimal process is applied successfully to manufacture the blade. Using the system of RTM simulation to optimize the process is cost-effective and the optimal process for blade manufacture is of great reference value for other shape-similar components.
