Abstract:
Aerodynamic element having a cross section in an airflow direction with a suction side surface, a pressure side surface, and a trailing edge extending between the suction side surface and the pressure side surface. The aerodynamic element further comprises an extension body attached to the trailing edge near the suction side surface of the aerodynamic element. A top surface of the extension body is flush with the suction side surface. The aerodynamic element (10) is e.g. applied in a rotor blade for a wind turbine.
