REKONTRUKSI BLADE TURBIN ANGIN DI DAERAH PEDESAAN JENEPONTO

Abstract

The profile of the wind turbine blade used by salt farmers in Paccelang Village, Jeneponto Regency, South Sulewesi Province is rectangular shape, certain size, and made of wood. Although wood is easy to shape and can be found in the village, the blade size is too large which causes the blade to bend and break easily. In addition, the rectangular blade profile produces static characteristics that are not optimal. This article aims to review and recommend blade profile shapes with certain sizes according to the needs of salt farmers. The method used is numerical. The blade profiles in Paccelang Village, NACA 0010, and NACA 0020 blade profiles were formed to the appropriate size and assessed for their characteristics numerically. The results of the review recommend an applicable NACA 0010 blade profile
