PENGARUH SUDUT KELENGKUNGAN SUDU SAVONIUS PADA HORIZONTAL AXIS WATER TURBINE DI ALIRAN DALAM PIPA
ABSTRACT: Water turbine is a
device that works to convert water energy into mechanical energy in the form of
a torque in turbine shaft. In this study, the angle of attack of Savonius water
turbine with horizontal axis (HAWT), simulated using “Solidworks Flow
Simulation” software, is obtained by applying the model in a flow through a
pipe. The angle of attack used in this simulation is varied from 110 , 120 , 130 and 140 . The
aims of this research are to obtain the optimum angle of attack with a
debit of 0,0122 m 3 /s. Then the angle of attack of the blade is evaluated
based on the torque, pressure contour and fluid velocity distribution. The
results show that the optimum angle of attack is found at 120 with the torque about 3,8 Nm.
