| Summary: | Electrical energy that is always used by human beings in performing a variety of activities. Utilization of renewable energy that still can’t be utilized all. In this study is a wind energy. In Indonesia needs a wind turbine that can operate at lower wind speeds and easy to maintain because the distribution of winds tend to be low. Therefore, for this study wind turbine blades are made <br />
<br />
<br />
with 6 blade diameter of 1.5 meters with albizia wood materials coated with polyester. <br />
<br />
<br />
The study began with the design width, platform shape and twist angle of the blade. By getting the necessary numbers, turbine blade were made. To prevent imbalances balancing process prior to installation. With the installation of turbine blades on the generator data in the form of electrical current from the turbine and wind speed from the anemometer were measured. <br />
<br />
<br />
The study has successfully made wind turbine blades from albizia wood coated with polyester. Wind turbines start rotating at 2.7 m / s and began to produce currents at 4 m / s with a maximum power of 16.8 watts at wind speed 7.5 m / s. Using reference of the current study, future of wind turbine is expected to give better power result. |
