    摘要: Method for manufacturing a preform building element used for building a wind turbine rotor blade, wherein the preform building element is manufactured from one or more fiber mat components (11) and at least one further component (12), wherein the further component (12) is arranged on a molding surface (3) of a mold (2), wherein one or more fiber mat components (11) are arranged one after the other on the further component (12) and/or on previously arranged fiber mat components (11), wherein the or each fiber mat component (11) is laid out at least sectionally on the respective directly subjacent component with a moving boundary (14) of a contact area (13), at which the laid out fiber mat (11) comes into contact with the subjacent component, wherein during laying out of the or each fiber mat component (11),
    - a binding agent is applied at least sectionally to the boundary (14) and/or
    - a binding agent supplied in the laid-out fiber mat component (11) and/or in the subjacent component is activated at least sectionally at and/or behind the boundary (14),
    wherein the applied binding agent and/or the activated supplied binding agent adheres the laid-out fiber mat component (11) to the subjacent component.

    摘要: A wind turbine blade (3), comprising two planks (8, 9) joined with each other in a longitudinal direction (L1) of the planks (8, 9) at joining surfaces (12, 13) by a butt joint (14), wherein
    each plank (8, 9) comprises a main portion (18, 20) with a wedge-shaped recess (19, 21) and a wedge-shaped portion (15, 16) filling the recess,
    each wedge-shaped portion (15, 16) has a respective one of the joining surfaces (12, 13) and is tapered from its joining surface (12, 13) in a direction (D1, D2) away from its joining surface (12, 13), and
    a stiffness of a material of the wedge-shaped portions (15, 16) is smaller than a stiffness of a material of the main portions (18, 20).
    By having the wedge-shaped portions, the load is transferred to the surrounding material over a larger area which reduces the stress concentration.

    摘要: A wind turbine blade (3) having a lengthwise and a chordwise direction (14), the wind turbine blade (3) comprising:
    a first blade element (22) extending in the lengthwise direction (21) and having a first airfoil (46, 46') in the chordwise direction (14), and
    a second blade element (23) extending in the lengthwise direction (21) and having a second airfoil (47, 47') in the chordwise direction (14),
    wherein the first and second airfoils (46, 46', 47, 47') are arranged besides each other when seen in the lengthwise direction (21).
    By having the wind turbine blade comprising the first and second blade elements, the blade can be manufactured by manufacturing the first blade element and the second blade element separately. Thus, larger wind turbine blades can be manufactured by using conventional production setups having limited production space. Further, as the first and second blade elements have a smaller chord length than a conventional wind turbine blade, they can be manufactured by an extruding and/or pultruding process.
