| Summary: | The increasing of oil prices in the world had rocked the economy in
developing countries. Indonesia as one of the countries that use oil and gas as the
main energy source and the result create some new energy sources of petroleum
substitutes appeared and began to glance again, one of which is wind energy.
Wind is a renewable energy source abundant in the earth's atmosphere and
an environmentally friendly energy sources. Wind energy can be extracted by
using wind turbines as will be discussed in the final project this time.
Research includes designing, manufacturing, and testing the wind energy
conversion systems. Type of wind turbine is chosen horizontal axis wind turbines
that has five blades and a diameter of 1.8 meters with a trapezoidal blade
geometry. Modifications are done is to provide a twist on the blade in order to
obtain optimal results in extracting wind energy.
Data obtained from the test results will show the power characteristics of
wind turbines to various wind speeds. |
