Abstract

The objective of this paper is to demonstrate that PVC blade profile has better power capacity.Creates scope for designing & Performance evaluation of a specially designed micro wind turbine for area especially in plateau region where velocity of wind is low, invariable average and dry, so where large wind turbine doesn't give satisfactory result.The small wind turbine and their wide scope of application need the comprehensive attempt to be taken place.The small wind turbine i.e. multi blade turbine with increase in number of blades can be run successfully with proper adjustment of swept area and angle of attack.The advantage of the micro wind turbine is that, apart from its low cost, it can be propelled by a wind speed as low as 2 m/s.It is the renewable source of energy which is the clean source.It can be installed over the houses for power generation in our local areas because of low cost and being of economical.Using of small wind turbines for house hold would result in fewer burdens on grid and also plays a vital role in reducing utilization of conventional energy and mobility to utilize the power.
