The group designed and fabricated a wind turbine with a helical duct to increase wind velocity and turbine efficiency. Experimental testing was performed with variations in wind speed and pitch distance to analyze turbine performance. Results showed the helical duct design increased wind swirl and velocity compared to traditional designs, improving power output potential for low wind speed areas.

    ABSTRACT:
    The design of wind turbine blade for low wind
    speed area is historically experimented by many researchers
    and give us different results with nearly same parameters. Also
    augmentation of wind turbine improves power generation
    capacity in magnified manner. This paper deals with the
    fabrication of and investigation of augmented wind turbine
    specially prepared with helical flow path. The experimentation
    is done with combination of different parameters such as wind
    speed, Pitch distance and angle of attack of wind flow.
    INTRODUCTION

     A Wind Turbine is a device that converts the wind kinetic


    energy into electrical energy.
     Wind turbine vary vastly in size, Shape and orientation.
     Wind power was probably used in Persia(present day Iran)
    about 500-900AD . The first known practical wind power
    plant were build in Sistan, an Eastern province of Iran.
     These “Panemone” were vertical axle wind mills, which had
    long vertical drive shaft with rectangle blade.
     wind power 1st appeared in Europe during the middle ages The
    1st historical records of their use in England date to the 11th or
    12th centuries.
     An average on shore wind turbine with a capacity of 2.5-3MV
    can produce more than 6 million KWh in a year.
     The ducted wind turbine was first introduced by Lilley and
    Rainbird with the earliest experimental research performed by
    Foremen et al.
    Existing system:
     Ducted wind turbines(DWT’s), in comparison to open turbines
    increase the power obtained by a fixed sized rotor by
    increasing the momentum through the rotor.
     The simple duct was kept to increase the velocity of the wind

    Proposed system:
     The helical flow path in an augmented wind turbine we
    introduce a helical flow path in an turbine.
     The helical flow path thus increases the momentum of a blade
    and increases the swirl of the flow.
    ADVNTAGE OF PROPOSED SYSTEM:
     The swirl path increases the vortex of the wind.
     The vortex increase the turbulence it is possible to increase the
    power.
     Thus this system helps in production of renewable energy.
    APPLICATIONS:
     Reduces the cost than the normal horizontal wind turbine.
     It can be easily placed on the roof of homes.
     It reduced the electricity bills.
    MEATHODOLOGY:
    WIND TURBINE DUCT MODEL & PARAMETER:
     The designing of duct and manufacturing convergent duct,
    a duct has been designed using CATIA and fabricated using
    composite material and epoxy resin.
     A model of a duct is designed in CATIA and analyzed in
    ANSYS how the velocity of the air is increased is calculated
    using software and done experimentally.
     Designing the model and analyzing helps us how
    effectively our design will be in real time process, thus
    increase our model efficiency.
    Blade Design:
    Airfoil selection:
    Initially some assumptions such as tip
    ratio, Number of Blades, Airfoil, etc. SG604X series
    airfoil has been selected.

    HUB DESIGN:

    Generator Specifications:
     RPM: 300-3000,
     AMP: 4amp,
     VOLTAGE: 24V,
     POWER: 140Watts,
     TORQUE: Low Torque.
    FLOW ANALYSIS:
     Thus the above flow analysis shows how the velocity of the
    wind increases from its initial value.
     The velocity has been increased while implementing a ducted
    convergent nozzle design in a turbine.
     This helps in increasing the efficiency of the turbine over the
    available wind energy effectively.
     Adding a helical path it increases the swirl of the wind thus ot
    increases the RPM of the shaft.
    SCOPE:
     Cuts off the electricity bills.
     Easy design.
     low cost.
     Reduces man power.
     Low maintenance cost.
     Easy mounted in the roofs of the buildings.
