Abstract

One promising source of renewable energy is wind energy. Wind energy is an abundant source of renewable energy to produce clean energy. A wind turbine is a device used to convert wind energy into kinetic energy. The average wind speed is 3m/s to 7m/s in Indonesia, classified as low wind speed. Savonius wind turbines can produce high torque values at low wind speeds. Making curvature variations in savonius wind turbine blades is one form of development to improve the performance of these wind turbines. This study aims to determine the effect of blade curvature from 0% to 100% blade curvature variations and wind speeds from 3m/s to 10m/s on the value of Coefficient of Power, Torque, and Rotational Speed. The method used is Numerical using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) Solidworks software. As a result, the largest Coefficient of Power value is in the 10% blade curvature variation which is 52.0224% at 5.5m/s wind speed. The largest torque value is in the 20% blade curvature variation which is 0.1399 Nm at a wind speed of 10m/s. Then, the largest rotation speed value is in the 10% blade curvature variation which is 713.3005 Rpm at 10m/s wind speed.
