Abstract
Abstract
This project focuses on the design and construction of a small-scale wind turbine as a practical demonstration of renewable energy principles for a f. The aim is to create inal year project an efficient and cost-effective turbine that can generate electricity from wind energy. The design process includes selecting appropriate materials, modeling aerodynamic blades, and constructing a sturdy frame. Key steps involve evaluating local wind conditions, optimizing blade shape for maximum efficiency, and assembling the electrical components to convert wind energy into usable power. The project explains and illustrates hands-on learning and practical application of engineering concepts. Testing and evaluation of the turbine's performance were conducted to measure power output and efficiency. The completed turbine serves as an educational tool, showcasing the feasibility and benefits of renewable energy technologies in a small-scale, accessible format
