Design, Modelling and Fabrication of VAWT based unit for Condensation of Atmospheric Humidity
Abstract:
The project has been made to meet the increasing needs of power consumption in our country
and to get rid of water and energy crisis. Our work is about generation of water from
atmospheric humidity in a unique way by using a hybrid system with wind turbine naturally.
The idea is to use air thrust of windy areas for rotating wind rotor to generate electric power
and a fan to suck surrounding air and condense its humidity into water. The condensation of
humidity to water is a geothermal heat exchanging phenomenon. As the field of interest is
mainly about the suction and condensation of atmospheric humidity, so the geological facts
and surveys information have been discussed for maximum output. Different software's like
SOLIDWORKS and ANSYS have been used for design analysis at the specially designed
turbine blades and suction fan.
