| Summary: | The use of electrical energy is increasingly rising, cause fossil energy
sources and gas are running low. The use of fossil energy produce high-polluting
and damaging the environment, that is global warming. For that need be
developed new sources of electrical energy and environmentally friendly.
One of the renewable energy is wind energy. Wind energy is a relatively
clean energy and environmentally friendly because it does not produce carbon
dioxide (CO2) or other gases that cause global warming. To convert wind energy
into electrical energy needs of a device called a wind turbine. One type of wind
turbine used is the horizontal axis wind turbines.
Research on Final project including design, manufacture and testing of
wind turbine rotor. Wind turbine rotor designed three pieces of 2.4 meters in
diameter with a NACA 2412 profile. More concerned with aspects of the design is
able to made, so that aspect of the stiffness and strength is very little. Blades is
made of albasia wood and blade shaft of aluminum rods. The process of testing
done to get the wind turbine power characteristics of wind speed. The wind
turbine have a starting wind speed 4.1 m/s and a cut-in wind speed 4.8 m/s. The
wind turbine produces 125 Watts of electrical power at wind speed 11.2 m/s. |
