Abstract

Wind turbine is a device that using the renewable energy to produce electrical power. It converts the wind energy to become electricity by rotating the rotor blade. In international or domestic market, small size wind turbines normally have their market value which can produce electricity for household application. Hence, the purpose of this project is to design a mini size wind turbine which able to use it for household application. Through this project, case study on current trend of small size wind turbine is carried on. Three conceptual design of mini size wind turbine are proposed with power generation analysis using CFD software. Material selection and Finite Element analysis are conducted to determine the best material for it. Cost estimation and weight calculation are done to determine the feasibility of making the designed product.
