TEST CHARACTERISTICS OF THE TURBINE SAVONIUS 4 LEVELS SECTIONAL, PARTITIONED, 0.25 DIAMETER OVERLAP AND 45o SLIDING ANGLE WITH COMPARABLE STANDARD TURBINE
ABSTRACT: The energy
and environmental crisis
where CO2 causes
global warming and
climate change. This condition encourage the world community
take advantage of new renewable energy non-CO2 as wind, water currents,
geothermal, solar, etc. Savonius Turbine has a simple construction can be made
by the public so they
can be used
for wind power
or hydro countryside.
In this study
aims to improve
the efficiency and reduce the amplitude of vibrations to the
modification of the 4-storey Savonius turbine, partitioned, sliding
angle 45 degree
and 0.25 diameter
blade overlap. The
location of research
is Cokro Tulung Channel
Klaten and Parangrucuk
Baron Beach Gunungkidul.
Measurements such as water
current and wind
speed, turbine rotational
speed, torque of the turbine
shaft and power.
The turbines analysis are
torque, power and
efficiency characteristics and
comparing by the
turbine Savonius standard (one pair of blades). Results as hydro turbine
at low velocity 0.3166 m/s Savonius 4 level had better revolution and efficient
(0.0826) than 1 level (0.024), but as wind turbine at 3.056 m/s velocity the
Savonius 4 level had worse efficiency (0.039) than 1 level (0.025) because the
inertia load.
