Abstract—this paper deals with testing of power and torque coefficient of savonius rotor using numerical analysis. Numerical analysis least costly quick time response so that it is better than experimental method. Due to poor aerodynamic coefficient of savonius rotor, many people perform analysis. Some factor like as TSR, overlapping condition, geometry of rotor etc. affects the coefficient. Numerical method is very effective for testing of rotor geometry for extracting more power from wind. Numerical analysis can be done as steady and transient analysis, where steady analysis in which time is steady and transient analysis time is varying. Using this flow of wind can be analyze complicated phenomenon of flow can be observed. Aim of this paper, …show more content…

They will vanish in few years. Savonius rotor can be fulfilling the demand of electricity for domestic purpose. India is divided in many village where the electricity unable to reach due to geographical problem such as mountains, forest. It is necessary to give an attention on savonius rotor which small power generation unit which will cover the demand of individual houses. But the problem with savonius rotor is less efficient. Many people have worked on improve the geometry of rotor which will give efficient performance .by using numerical analysis.aim of paper is to bring them into discussion: IV. METHOD Numerical analysis is also called as CFD analysis. Different analysis software are available in market. Main advantageous of CFD is complicated flow visualization using some governing equation by solving differential equation. Using some problem computes the results in computer. CFD contains 3 basic steps preprocessing in this stage rotor geometry called up placed inside the domain generates mesh by means of finer near to rotor for getting better result. It necessary to define all required boundary conditions, Property of flow also defined. Solver this stage deals with various solver specifically in fluent pressure based solver another is density based solver are used for solving flow governing equation manipulated
