Abstract

Climate changing, electrical demands, rising diesel fuel prices, as well as fossil fuel-based energy is limited and in fact is depleting ,are subjects to use of renewable technologies. Among the different renewable energy technologies, hydro power generation (large and small scale) is the prime choice in terms of contribution to the world's electricity generation by using water current turbines.CFD simulation using two equations turbulence model was carried out to compare performance of conventional savonius turnine and new consept of vertical axis turbine. This study was coducted to reach suitable desigh of vertical axis turbines for capturing more kineticenergy of current via of others esspecially,low current speed.
