Description

Wind energy is utilized to produce electricity using wind electric generator (WEG). In this paper Vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) is designed for 5 watts output and simulation is carried out. The suggested VAWT is analyzed mathematically using MATLAB-2014a to produce an output of 5 watts. Various characteristics, such as wind speed, air density, and turbine efficiency, are assumed. The VAWT model is able to generate mechanical power at low wind speeds of 4 to 6 m/s. Prototype model of VAWT has been constructed.
