Abstract
This research carried out the design, construction and performance analysis of locally made portable wind turbine for domestic applications. Today, world is immensely seeking clean, renewable and cost effective energy to reduce greenhouse gases, which problem is becoming a global issue. Constructing a small wind turbine provides useful quantity of environmental friendly energy, to supply houses and workshops, without ejection of carbon-monoxide into the atmosphere. The conversion of kinetic energy in form of mechanical energy is transformed to generate electrical energy by vertical axis wind turbine, derived from 12 Volts car alternator. The car alternator used differs from a DC motor in that it contains no permanent magnet, instead there are two
concentric wound coils of wire within the alternator. A stator coil, which does not rotate and a rotor coils were attached to the alternator’s shaft for movement. Electromagnetic field is created whenever current flows through the field coil, the resultant magnetic field sweeps clockwise through the coil of wire and electricity is generated in the stator coil.
