    摘要: A rotor blade for a wind turbine, wherein the rotor blade includes serrations along at least a portion of the trailing edge section of the rotor blade is provided. The serrations include a first tooth and at least a second tooth, wherein the first tooth is spaced apart from the second tooth. Furthermore, the area between the first tooth and the second tooth is at least partially filled with a plurality of comb elements, wherein the comb elements are arranged substantially parallel to each other and in substantially chordwise direction of the rotor blade such that generation of noise in the trailing edge section of the rotor blade is reduced. The rotor blade is further characterized in that it includes a plurality of ridges including a first ridge and at least a second ridge for manipulating an airflow which is flowing along the ridges.
