Abstract

The need for electricity in Indonesia and throughout the world is increasing, while most of the energy sources for electricity generation are still using fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas and coal. Fossil energy has a high level of pollution which is the cause of global warming, it is necessary to replace fossil energy that is environmentally friendly, namely renewable energy. The construction of power plants such as micro hydro power plants (PLTMh) which are located in irrigation canals or rivers with relatively small water discharge will result in low wheel rotation. The waterwheel rotation in this PLTMh system has a low rotating speed of around 200 rpm, and has a low torque or no cogging torque effect. Based on the needs in the field, a permanent Neodymium Type (NdFeB) Permanent Magnet Axial Flux Generator is built, which is specifically designed for low speeds of 200 rpm and has no cogging torque or low rotational torque effects. And it is hoped that the design of this generator can be used according to the needs of PLTMH. The results obtained in this study are, the generator can produce a voltage at a rotational speed of 200 Rpm and a frequency of 50 Hz is 100 VAC.
