ABSTRACT
About 1% to 2% of the energy coming from the sun is converted into wind energy. The technology of extracting energy from the wind has evolved dramatically over the last few decades because of the fact that the energy crises that we are facing worldwide. This paper presents design of 5kW Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine using CAD and CAE software for modeling and analysis in order to get rid of conventional methods of analysis, which will be productive for the industry. In this paper, theoretical calculations for the design of 5kW horizontal axis wind turbine is also presented. It also discusses the modeling of blade and its analysis using high-tech software. Lastly it concludes with the comparison of theoretical and computer based design and analysis.
