The blade is the most distinctive and visible component of a wind turbine. It is also responsible for carrying out one of the most essential tasks of the energy conversion process: transforming the wind kinetic energy into rotational mechanical energy. Blades have greatly evolved in aerodynamic design and materials from the early windmill blades made of wood and cloth. Modern blades are commonly made to provide the necessary strength-to-weight ratio, fatigue life, and stiffness while minimizing the weight.
The cost of the materials and the cost of processing the materials into the product or part. Availability of the materials, most especially in large enough quantity, for the intended application necessitated this project. Hence the project intended at replicating, indigenously, the broken turbine blades made of Glass Re-enforced Plastic material.
