Taking advantage of the wind is one of the oldest ways to acquire energy. Traditional wind power sources are classic windmills. Nowadays, we are trying to focus more on generating electricity from alternative sources and one of these sources is also the energy of the wind. The most often uses of the potential of wind power is to generate electricity. In addition, this energy is attractive today because its use does not produce any waste, does not pollute the air and does not have a negative impact on human health. Recently, we can recognize using of so-called "small wind power plants" in households. This paper provides an overview and technological solutions to be taken into account for designing and realizing the construction of a wind power plant. This paper proposed rotor with a horizontal axis which bears the designation of Savoni rotor. This paper represents a contribution to the development of the use of small wind power plants, as contains a large number of illustra...
Abatract : This project by using Savonius rotor wind turbine adapted for household electricity generation. The design process and justification of the new machine will be described. The innovative technology turbine collects wind energy and converts it into electricity, which in turn produces a output more than 12 volt which is used to charge one heavy duty battery. As a result, the home is served simultaneously by the wind turbine and the utility. In this project, a small electricity generator has been specifically designed for household installation as well as for industrial use also. We are using a savonius rotor. This type of rotor (which is of the vertical axis variety) is chosen instead of a horizontal axis machine due to its simplicity and reliability. The S-rotor has been designed using an analytical method then analysis method is used for checking the blade sustainability capacity on different boundary conditions and finally model is fabricated on which output voltage is at very high rate as multiple DC generator arrangement is used for producing power. The generator runs with the help of spur gear which is mounted on rotating shaft. The design process, analysis and validation will be described in this project.
The wind turbine, which produces virtually no CO 2 emission, has long been recognized as an abundant potential source of electric power. The fact is that wind power is one of the lowest-cost power generation technologies. In this work, a small-scale wind turbine has been designed and fabricated. The measurement, results and analysis of the wind turbine are presented in this work. The construction has been carried out successfully. The turbine comprises of three blades made of pipe, a DC dynamo used in place of an electric motor, a dc-to-ac converter, a hub that holds the blades, a vertical hollowed shaft, and nacelle that holds at the centre of the turbine. Four yards of electric wire is also used. This wind turbine was designed based on proper application of some factors that will aid its smooth running which include: the weather condition of the university, location, properties of materials used, satisfactory performance of the mechanism, economic considerations, and maintenance and repair implications. After the fabrication and assembly of the wind turbine, a test was carried out. The whole setup was placed on a surface of high altitude. After a few seconds, the blade rotates and 0.088 W was obtained, which is the average value. In all, the locally made wind turbine costs N64, 000 ($ 400) to produce it.
This project produces an exploration of a Savonius rotor (S-rotor) wind turbine adapted for household/domestic electricity generation. The design process and justification of the new machine will be described. A prototype has been built and installed at a selected site. The operational experience of this site testing will also be summarised in the paper. The result so far is feasible. This project produces an investigational exploration of a Savonius rotor wind turbine adapted for household electricity generation. The innovative technology turbine collects wind energy and converts it into electricity, which in turn produces a 12 volt output which is used to charge one heavy duty battery. As a result, the home is served simultaneously by the wind turbine and the utility. In this study, a small electricity generator has been specifically designed for household installation. The generator (alternator) is driven by a modified Savonius rotor. This type of rotor (which is of the vertical axis variety) is chosen instead of a horizontal axis machine due to its simplicity and reliability. The S-rotor has been designed using an analytical method and confirmed by natural wind testing. The design process and justification will be described in the paper. A prototype has been built and installed at a selected site. The operational experience of this site testing will be summarised in the paper. The result so far is feasible. At present too few wind projects are being built in the UK, mainly because of planning permission objections. This problem will be eliminated with the development of the household turbine. The concept is to let homeowners generate their own clean power, thereby reducing Carbon Dioxide emissions. In addition, by putting the wind to work, the household electricity bill should be decreased. The Savonius turbine has been overlooked in the past for small household applications. However, this paper indicates that the design could be very useful for reducing fossil fuel energy consumption within the home. If this device became popular, the system would go some way to meeting the UK Government commitment to generating 10% of electricity from renewable sources by 2010, as set out in the Energy White Paper.

The conventional sources of energy are fast depleting and are causing very serious problem to the environment, for example combustion of fuels causes atmospheric pollution which is not suitable for human beings as well as other species living in the environment. The other major drawback of conventional sources is their high cost. The processes by which the conventional sources are extracted are also expensive. So there is a need to search for alternate source of energy and to extract them to meet our needs. An attempt is made to extract alternate source of energy that is wind. Wind energy is used to rotate the blade which helps the dc motor to produce dc current. By installing small wind turbine in the village and city which is situated in western ghat of Tamandu and Maharashtra, the state of Gujarat and Karnataka we can easily produce electricity due to its geographical location. This small wind turbine is able to generate the enough power for a household application in remote area. This will help the nation to overcome with the power crises problem specially in summer season

Review Paper on Wind Turbine2016 •
This paper presents advantageous concept of the present day situation, energy is a foremost necessity for human life. A wind turbine is a gadget which converts the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical energy. This mechanical energy can be used for many fields (such as grinding grain or pumping water) or for driving a generator that converts the mechanicalenergy into electricity that is supplied to the power grid users here we study of wind energy through the wind turbine mechanism. There is a must to cultivate non-conventional bases for power generation due to the purpose that our conventional sources of power are attainment scarcer by the day. This paper highlights on the knowledge that the kinetic energy receiving wasted while blades move can be used to produce power by using a special Windmills, wind pumps and sails to propel ships. Wind power as an alternative to fossil fuels, is plentiful, renewable, widely distributed, clean, produces no greenhouse gas emissions during opera...

The objective of the project is to design a new blade mechanism to reduce the blade damage caused due to high wind speeds during operation of the wind turbine. There has been a very sturdy increase in harnessing wind energy all over the world. In today's world there are many types of turbines which are used for harnessing the wind energy. One such type is the savonius wind turbine which we have concentrated on in this project. This is a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). There are two type of mechanisms used in a VAWT to convert the wind energy to mechanical energy.They are lift type and the drag type. Savonius turbine is a drag type wind turbine which uses the drag force created by the wind on the turbine blades to rotate the blades over the axis of the turbine. Due to high wind speeds during various climatic conditions the blades of the turbines are damaged and hence reduces the efficiency of the blades. They are also expensive to repair. Hence we have come up with a new speed limiting mechanism to safe guard the blades from getting damaged. Research in this area will contribute in overcoming the disadvantages of the technology and move towards a more viable technology for mass use. They are very compact against the horizontal wind turbines. They can coexist with the existing infrastructure without high cost. I. INTRODUCTION Wind Energy has become significant part of the worlds overall power grid. Having a lot of advantages over the traditional non renewable source of energy. Technology to harness this form of energy has been there for a very long time. In the earlier days it was in the form of windmills which converts the wind energy to mechanical work which are used to pump water etc. whereas now the technology has evolved and we are able convert the mechanical energy and store it as electrical energy in batteries and use it for various applications by the use of wind turbines. Now this technology has the capability of contributing to the country's power requirement. There are two kinds of wind turbines based on design, they are horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) and vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT).The advantages of vertical axis turbine are that they are easy to design and construct, lower cost to build, they don't need a rotor yaw mechanism as they can operate in any direction of the wind and ecosystem damage is less. The disadvantage of this type of wind turbine is that its efficiency is less, high fluctuations in power production, lower blade speeds and lower energy yield. Due to population growth there has been a steep increase in the energy needs in the world. Since in the advancement of science the average power consumption per house has also been increased due to the increase in electronic goods. Due to all this all the countries are looking for a renewable energy source to balance the needs and the non renewable energy source is depleting in a very fast pace and environment damage it causes has been significant. To counter all this there is a need to reduce our dependence on nonrenewable source of energy This project determines the optimal size for a wind turbine to supplement power requirement to light at least a bulb.
