Abstract

Renewable Energy Sources is the term used to describe natural, continuous, widely available, and environmentally benign energy sources. Renewable energy sources are constantly available and do not run out, as mother nature continually replenishes them at the same rate or faster than they are consumed or used up. This project is focusing on the turbine system and aim for making a portable energy generator using turbine. For the turbine system, this project study on wind turbine and hydro turbine system, for wind turbine the wind speed is divided into four categories, based on wind turbine operation. Firstly, it is a start-up speed, this is the rate at which the assembly of the rotor and blade begins to rotate. Secondly, it is a cut-in speed, Cut-in speed is the minimum wind velocity at which the wind turbine produces usable energy. As for hydro turbine, it is dependent on weather conditions, such as rainfall, temperature, humidity, and other factors besides the system itself. The assembly of the rotor consists of several blades (usually three blades) connected to a common core, a nose cone, and fasteners. As from the result that have been collected, this turbine will start functioning to charging the battery when the blade turbine reaches the speed at least 5.6 knots with voltage range at 3.676V. The best and most efficient output are when the speed turbine reaches 8.4 knot and produce voltage output around 4.012V. As for the conclusion, this project efficiency is that it can charging the mobile phone each 1% equivalent to 5-minute time taken from the maximumin put of the generator. As for the conclusion, this project is successfully achieving all the objective. Lastly, for the improvement this project need to be more compact and an addition of using IOT would be perfect.
