Design And Construction Of Horizontal Axis Wind Pump
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Mechanical Engineering
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to provide water supply from wind energy for local area. Wind energy is one the lowest-priced renewable energy technologies available today.The horizontal axis wind pump is designed to derive 48W pump. The blades of wind pump are designed by using the NACA 64-215 series. The multi-blade wind pump can produce 51W. 48W pump can be used with low speed. Blade is divided into 8 elements with equal length forming 9 sections throughout the blade. The blade length is obtained 0.701 m and rotor swept area is 2.5847 m2. Diameter of rotor is 1.8288 m. The rotor speed is 157 rpm. Therefore, the transmission system is used to get less revolution from output shaft of the wind pump. The speed-down spur gear (315 mm diameter, 5 mm module, face width 0.785 mm and 63 teeth) are used. The design of pinion is 140 mm diameter, 5 mm module, face width 0.785 mm and 30 teeth. Material of spur gear and pinion are selected with cast steel. For utilization of house-hold wind generation, the calculation of rotor swept area and selection for height of tower is the most important factor. The technical data, capacity and testing results of the designed wind pump are also presented.
