Performance and Analysis of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine with Composite Material Blades

In today's life demand of electricity in increasing all over the world. The production of electricity is less when compared to consumption. By renewable sources we can produce energy which is available in huge amount and can be replaced. Renewable sources are necessary because to reach the demand of energy, increasing cost of fossil fuels used for various purposes and main thing is environmental pollution. Thus renewable sources are the new techniques that can produce electricity and also it does not cause any environmental effects to human life and surroundings.In this savonius wind turbine with three blades (Glass fibre) is designed and fabricated. For different air velocities the different parameters of wind turbine such as power developed by turbine, power developed by wind, power co-efficient, speed of wind turbine are calculated.
