Estudo e projeto teórico de viabilidade econômica de um gerador eólico de baixo custo

Abstract

The use of electricity in the modern world and its scarcity or increasingly high cost has been a very important factor and discussed, as well as in it, the search for new energy sources. In this work will be used in a study of the most used energy sources and a principle of renewable energy today, so that you can adapt a type of wind turbine to generate clean energy and low cost. For this to occur, the project will use low-cost equipment or end of life, it can be easy to manufacture, aiming economy. Thus, a wind turbine savonius type made by a plastic barrel will capture wind energy and is adapted for a transmission system to move the pulley of an automotive alternator that will be responsible to turn this captured energy into electricity, which can be stored in batteries or converted directly to the household, keeping some appliances such as air conditioning running. This system is based on economics and equipment are selected and dimensioned according to the characteristics of each system-wide and site to be implanted. Overall, for the manufacture of a product or project as a whole, there are occupational safety standards which will be identified key that will be used during the process and also a base on the types of maintenance in general and which will be applied and how it will be done. Finally, what is the viability of the project and their economies and applications.
