Abstract
Vertical axis wind turbines are most effective for home energy generation especially in urban environments. Wind energy creates a stand-alone energy source that is relied on any place. The main criteria for this work is the design of micro wind turbines for all kinds of applications. Design of Twisted Blade Micro-Wind Turbine system is accomplished using computer aided design with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The flow characteristics in the wind turbine blade were analyzed by varying its twist ratio. The wind turbines with vertical axis utilize the wind from any direction with no yaw mechanism. The risk of blade ejection besides catching wind from all the directions is avoided by using the helical tye vertical axis wind turbine.
