摘要
Global focused on green technology in the midst of energy escalating costs and the risk of global warming. Wind power is one of the realistic strategic choices to solve the problems. This paper focused on the development of a permanent magnet generator for a vertical axis wind turbine. High starting torque issued problem to vertical axis wind turbine. Therefore, application of magnetic levitation resolved the problem. Magnetic levitation reduced wind turbine weight acting by the gravitational force. The prototypical structure on customize design are analyzed on its geometry and output voltage are measured.The prototype produced is capable for voltage generation of up to 5.48 volts or more depending on the number of coils and the constant speed of the air flow.
