Abstract

Due to its strategic location and ocean currents, the Sunda Strait has the potential to produce energy that might be used as a source of electricity. As a result, this strait area urgently needs a suitable turbine design. This strait's most significant sea current speed is 1 (one) m/s. The Savonius rotor is one of the rotor kinds of turbines that can operate in the slow sea current—modifying the rotor from semi-circular to use the Bezier curve for the shape to optimize the performance. This paper will discuss the design of the Savonius rotor using the Bezier curve, that have improved performance. The rotor with double stacking will also enhance the performance of the rotor. This design is a novelty for vertical marine current turbine applications in ocean renewable energy.
