Details
Highlights
- Made of a highly durable thermoplastic with dimensional stability, strength, and excellent weathering resistance
- Equipped with flexible and elastic 3M Acrylic Foam Tape die-cuts that provide long-term durability and holding power
- Helps enhance the aerodynamic performance of wind turbine rotor blades
- Engineering support available for determining optimal placement on the blade
3M™ Wind Vortex Generators are polymeric, aerodynamic devices with integrated acrylic foam tape adhesive that can be added to wind turbine blades to help improve aerodynamic efficiency and increase wind turbine annual energy production by 1% or more depending on the application.
3M Wind Vortex Generators are attached to the root section of a wind turbine blade on spots that are determined using a proprietary analytical process. They help improve performance by energizing airflow around the surface of the blade. This helps reduce flow separation and increases the energy generating performance of the entire turbine. 3M™ Wind Vortex Generators are made of durable thermoplastic and feature 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape for bonding to the blade surface. 3M Acrylic Foam Tapes are made with high performance acrylic adhesives, providing excellent long-term durability and holding power.
