Abstract

The key objective of the research is to calculate and design the Small Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) that can meet Pakistan’s energy needs. This is the plan for producing approximately 20 kW of electricity to distribute the load used by common household appliances. This study will focus on Jamshoro, Sindh, Pakistan, where a wind turbine is considered to generate electricity. The appropriate design is required to make the turbine more efficient and decreases the cost. Q-blade wind turbine software verifies the design parameters. The maximum power factor is achieved at the design speed of 8 m/s. Design analysis is also performed in Q-blade wind turbine simulation software.
Keywords: horizontal axis wind turbines; power factor; Q-blade software horizontal axis wind turbines; power factor; Q-blade software
