The erosion caused by rain on the edge of attack of wind shovels is one of the biggest technological challenges facing the wind industry today. It affects both terrestrial and marine wind turbines and is particularly intensified with the arrival of new generation shovels, longer and faster, which increases the aggressiveness of the impact of drops, particles and hail. This damage causes a loss of aerodynamic efficiency and, consequently, a signi…
