Abstract

The chapter delves into the molecular dynamics of material degradation in wind turbine blades subjected to electrical arcs. It begins by introducing molecular dynamics simulation as a crucial method for understanding molecular structures and properties. The focus then shifts to the damage mechanisms of balsa wood and PVC materials under arc action, with detailed simulations of their pyrolysis processes. The chapter also includes experimental data and SEM observations of damage morphology, providing a comprehensive understanding of the material damage caused by lightning strikes. The comparison between balsa wood and PVC highlights their different damage characteristics and gas product generation, offering valuable insights for the selection of blade materials in wind turbines.
