Abstract: A method for manufacturing a blade shell part of a wind turbine blade includes providing a mould for manufacturing a blade shell part of the wind turbine blade. The mould has a first moulding side with a first moulding surface that defines an outer shape of the blade shell part. The method comprises providing a blade shell part on the first moulding surface and providing a support element and attaching the support element to a fastening section of the blade shell part. Attaching the support element includes applying adhesive between the support element and the fastening part. The method also includes providing an air heating assembly having a cover extending in a longitudinal direction between a first cover end and a second cover end and extending in a transverse direction between a primary cover end and a secondary cover end, the cover defining a cavity.

The present invention further relates to preforms comprising the non-woven fabric according to the present invention and methods for producing the non-woven fabric, preforms and wind turbine blades.

Abstract: A shell core (1) configured for being incorporated in a shell of a fiber reinforced polymer composite structure wherein: the core has a first surface (2) and an opposite second surface (3), a first groove (4) is formed in the first surface (2) and divides the core into a first core part (5) and a second core part (6), the first groove (4) is defined by two opposing side walls (7a,7b) and a bottom (8), the distance T1 between the bottom (8) of the groove (4) and the second surface (3) of the core is of such a size that the core is flexible/bendable along the first groove, and the opposing walls (7a,7b) converge towards the bottom (8) forming an angle A1 of at least 45° with each other.

Abstract: Disclosed is a wind turbine blade and a method for its manufacture. The wind turbine blade comprises an upwind side shell part, a downwind side shell part, a leading edge and a trailing edge. A flatback web is arranged at the trailing edge, which couples the upwind side shell part with the downwind side shell part, wherein the flatback web comprises at least one U-shaped end section with a recess, into which the upwind side shell part and/or the downwind side shell part is inserted and bonded to the U-shaped end section by an adhesive.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a wind turbine blade comprising the steps of manufacturing a pressure shell halves and arranging a spar structure (62) within one of the shell halves. The spar structure (62) comprises two parts releasably coupled to each other. The method results in a segmented wind turbine blade for easy transportation and re-assembly.

Abstract: Disclosed is a wind turbine blade and a method for its manufacture. A lower shell part and an upper shell part are provided, each shell part having a leading edge end and a trailing edge end. A flatback profile component and web for connecting an inner surface of the lower side shell part with an inner surface of the upper side shell part are connected. The assembly which comprises the flatback profile component and the at least one web are placed on the lower shell part and the upper shell part is mounted. The wind turbine blade comprises a flatback profile component being arranged at the trailing edge, wherein the flatback profile component is coupled by at least one distance holder with at least one web, wherein the web couples the interior surface of the upwind side shell part with the interior surface of the downwind side shell part.

Abstract: Disclosed is a blade shell section of a wind turbine blade, such as wind turbine blade with a flatback section. The blade shell section extends in a longitudinal direction from a first shell section position to a second shell section position. The blade shell section comprises a first laminate layer forming the outer surface of the blade shell section and a second laminate layer forming the inner surface of the blade shell section. The blade shell section further comprising a first shell section and a corner shell section between the contour shell section and the flatback shell section.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an access arrangement (90) of a wind turbine blade for accessing a hollow space within the blade. The access arrangement (90) comprises an access opening (180) provided in the blade shell member, a cover panel (92) for covering the access opening (180), a sealing member (96) arranged between the cover panel (92) and the blade shell member, and one or more fasteners (98) for releasably fastening the cover panel (92) to the blade shell member. The present invention also relates to a wind turbine blade comprising the access arrangement (90).

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for sealing a joint between a first blade section and a second blade section of a wind turbine blade, a sealing member and a wind turbine blade comprising a sealing member. The sealing member having a first surface and a second surface. The sealing member having a width between a first edge and a second edge. The sealing member being configured for attachment to the first outer shell along the first edge, and for attachment to the second outer shell along the second edge. The sealing member comprising a corrugated section between the first edge and the second edge, the corrugated section comprising one or more valleys and/or ridges extending along a lengthwise direction of the sealing member.
