Neodymium Maglev Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

Abstract

This project titled is Neodymium Maglev Vertical Axis Wind Turbine. This project is about implementation of the neodymium magnet as alternative of conventional bearing. Using the effects of magnetic repulsion, shaped wind turbine blades will be fitted on a rod for stability during rotation and suspended on magnets as a replacement for ball bearings which are normally used on conventional wind turbines. The result, rotation will be more smooth, no friction, no noise, low maintenance needed etc. The output power will be generated by the DC motor pulled with the rotor shaft gear. The DC Voltage output will be monitored using monitoring system which is LCD panel. The load specification used is LED lamp.
