Abstract
The water energy is one of potential alternative in creating power generation specifically for the picohydro energy. Savonius is a kind of wind turbine which now proposed to be operated utilizing the energy from low fluid flow. Researches about the utilization of Savonius turbine have been developed in the horizontal water pipelines and wave. The testing experimental on the Savonius Horizontal Axis Water Turbine (HAWT) by observing the effect of the blade curvature angle (ψ) of 110°, 120°, 130°, and 140° at the debit of 176.4 lpm, 345 lpm, 489.6 lpm, and 714 lpm in order to know the power output was already conducted. The optimal result in every debit variation was obtained in the blade curvature angle of 120°. In the maximum debit of 714 lpm with blade curvature angle of 120° the power output is 39.15 Watt with the coefficient power (Cp) of 0.23 and tip speed ratio (TSR) of 1.075.
