This project applies renewable energy technology, the calculation and design of an experimental Savonius vertical axis wind turbine is described. The objective is to acquire the necessary information for the construction and modeling of an experimental wind turbine. This prototype was constructed to use the movement of the air to generate electricity in a clean and non-contaminant way. The parts were assembled to make as much energy as its possible, those designs were calculated using the formulas of wind resource harnessing. Following this clean and non contaminant ideas, we recycled most of the materials used for the construction of this prototype. We calculated the rotative speed of the device according to the wind, we also calculated the electric energy that the device could generate with the wind. We studied the environment data such as wind speed, temperature for three weeks, where installed the experimental device it is going to be.

The demand for electrical energy that continues to increase along with the advancement of civilization and also the increasing number of people as well as the reduced level of fulfillment and availability of non-renewable energy sources, it is necessary to have renewable energy resources that capable of fulfill these energy demand in a more environmental friendly. One of the natural energies that we can use is wind energy, which is easy to get and lasts continuously. This research examines the comparison of the power generated from the vertical axis wind turbine savonius type and darrieus H type. The wind that use in this research get from from the fan. The test is doing by varying the wind speed by adjusting the fan speed. The fan is directed to the wind turbine to rotate the wind turbine. To measure the wind speed produced by the fan, a digital anemometer is used. The result of this research is the relation data of voltage to rpm and voltage to wind speed of wind turbine.

Several types of renewable energy have been developed, such as solar energy, biomass, hydro energy, geothermal, and wind energy. Wind energy is an up-and-coming alternative and renewable energy. Wind energy is more environmentally friendly than available energy sources and has more accessible operational and maintenance costs. Indonesia has a relatively small natural wind energy potential because the wind speed in Indonesia is on average 3-6 m/s due to its location. Geographically, it is located in the equatorial area, especially the Muara Enim area, South Sumatra. This study aims to design a prototype the four-blade darrieus type vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) needed for the utilization of wind energy which is used for Coffee Shop electricity needs at the Jamik Bukit Asam Tanjung Enim Mosque complex, South Sumatra, with the conclusion that the wind turbine, wind turbine rotation, the magnitude of the output voltage and The current generated significantly affects the wind speed in the area.

PurposeThis paper aims to design an optimum vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) and assess its techno-economic performance for wind energy harvesting at high-speed railway in Malaysia.Design/methodology/approachThis project adopted AutoCAD and ANSYS modeling tools to design and optimize the blade of the turbine. The site selected has a railway of 30 km with six stops. The vertical turbines are placed 1 m apart from each other considering the optimum tip speed ratio. The power produced and net present value had been analyzed to evaluate its techno-economic viability.FindingsComputational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) 0020 blade has been carried out. For a turbine with wind speed of 50 m/s and swept area of 8 m2, the power generated is 245 kW. For eight trains that operate for 19 h/day with an interval of 30 min in nonpeak hours and 15 min in peak hours, total energy generated is 66 MWh/day. The average cost saved by the train stations is RM 16.7 mil/year with battery charging capacity of 12 h/day.Originality/valueWind energy harvesting is not commonly used in Malaysia due to its low wind speed ranging from 1.5 to 4.5 m/s. Conventional wind turbine requires a minimum cut-in wind speed of 11 m/s to overcome the inertia and starts generating power. Hence, this paper proposes an optimum design of VAWT to harvest an unconventional untapped wind sources from railway. The research finding complements the alternate energy harvesting technologies which can serve as reference for countries which experienced similar geographic constraints.

A small vertical axis wind turbine with wind speed self-adapting was designed. The diameter and height of the turbine were both 0.7m. It featured that the blades were composed of movable and fixed blades, and the opening and closing of the movable blades realized the wind speed self-adapting. Aerodynamic performance of this new kind turbine was tested in a simple wind tunnel. Then the self-starting and power coefficient of the turbine were studied. The turbine with load could reliably self-start and operate stably even when the wind velocity was only 3.6 m/s. When the wind velocity was 8 m/s and the load torque was 0.1Nm, the movable blades no longer opened and the wind turbine realized the conversion from drag mode to lift mode. With the increase of wind speed, the maximum power coefficient of the turbine also improves gradually. Under 8 m/s wind speed, the maximum power coefficient of the turbine reaches to 12.26%. The experimental results showed that the new turbine not only improved the self-starting ability of the lift-style turbine, but also had a higher power coefficient in low tip speed ratio.

<p>A vertical axis wind turbine triple-stage savonius type has been created by using simple materials to generate electricity for the alternative wind power plant. The objective of this research is to design a simple wind turbine which can operate with low wind speed. The turbine was designed by making three savonius rotors and then varied the structure of angle on the three rotors, 0˚, 90˚ and 120˚. The dimension of the three rotors are created equal with each rotor diameter 35 cm and each rotor height 19 cm. The turbine was tested by using blower as the wind sources. Through the measurements obtained the comparisons of output power, rotation of turbine, and the level of efficiency generated by the three variations. The result showed that the turbine with angle of 120˚ operate most optimally because it is able to produce the highest output power and highest rotation of turbine which is 0.346 Watt and 222.7 RPM. </p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Output power; savonius turbine; triple-stage; the structure of angle</p>

Vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) can be operated in any direction of wind speed, but it has low rotation. To improve the performance of VAWT in which low rotation, this paper presents a simple control strategy of VAWT using a DC-DC boost converter to tap constant voltage in a standalone application. The main objective of this research is to maintain a constant output voltage of converter despite variation input voltage affected by variable wind speed. A simple proportional-integral (PI) controller has been used for a DC-DC boost converter and tested in MATLAB-Simulink environment, with the closed-loop system of the converter maintain constant output voltage although the wind speed is kept changing. The PI controller obtains the feedback from the output voltage of the boost converter to produce the correct pulse width modulation (PWM) duty cycle and trigger the metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) following the reference voltage of the turbine. This system has suppressed the value of overshoot and increased the efficiency of wind turbines as 34 %.
