Abstract:
A blade made of layered material, such as composite material, configured for exposure to a fluid flow, comprises skins (1, 2) defined between a leading edge (3) and a trailing edge (4) which skins in cross-section form a flow profile. The layered material may consist of several layers of fiber material (5, 5′, . . . ) impregnated with a matrix material, wherein layers of fiber material each comprise a respective body portion (6, 6′, . . . , 13) between and transverse to the skins and each at least a respective skin portion (7, 7′, . . . ; 8, 8′, . . . ) that forms part of the skins. The said skin portions all extend from the related body portion in the direction of the trailing edge. Of said skin portions at least two consecutive skin portions of the one skin overlap and/or two consecutive skin portions of the other skin overlap each other.
