Abstract

Vertical Axes Wind Turbine (VAWT) power generation for housing areas and campus areas is one save cost project that can help to save electricity usage and get better brightness for small room capacity especially for letcurers rooms. The design goal of this project is to produce a wind turbine that captures drag force of the wind from the vehicles passing by the roadway, and also from nominal wind. Scope of users considered for our project is people who need a better brightness lumen conditions in small room capacity. The aim of this project is to create a wind turbine that generates power from vehicles passing by it, and also from nominal wind, which then stored in 12v motor battery, then power transferred to lighting port to be used by the users. Besides, the product will be manufactured in safety for health, light weight and weatherproof material. The limitations for the design can be viewed from few aspects. When the drag force hits the blades, the blades, which is attached to the rotor of the DC generator, spins and the power is generated by the motor. The 24V DC generator then generates electrical energy from the kinetic energy of the rotating blades, which then transferred to the sealed lead-acid rechargeable battery to be charged. A voltage regulator is connected to the battery.The inverter circuit using IC CD4538/4047 connected to MOSFET drivers and output stage which connected by 230V primary 9V- 0-9V, secondary transformer connected in reverse. The output will connected to the load which using lighting bulb ports to measure an record the brightness and lumen in a small room capacity with 6m2 for 220-230V and 18W-24W types of bulb.
