Blade

• SGRE next-generation blade technology for larger rotor designs to deliver optimum weight and strength.
• Aerodynamic design
• Combination of airfoils in the blade design for optimal balance of AEP, loads distribution and noise.
• High-efficiency airfoil families implemented in SG 5.8-155 and SG 5.8-170 accumulate significant operating track record in previous
Siemens Gamesa platforms. Aerodynamic design risks eliminated through wind tunnel validation.
• DinoShells and Vortex Generators implemented at the root to improve aerodynamic performance.
• DinoTails at the blade outboard enable keeping noise emissions to a low value while operating the rotor at a faster speed.
• Material
• Glass and carbon fiber reinforced epoxy to reduce weight and rotor loads.
