This project is about manufacturing a Vertical Axis Wind Turbines VAWT to transfer the wind speed to a rotational motion using these turbines. Savonius wind turbine is the vertical axis wind turbine. Savonius has the three curved shaped structures. Savonius wind turbine is one of the turbines which are operated in the low speed wind. This produce the high operating torque at the low speed, it is the self-starting turbine. Savonius would use with the magnetic levitation for obtaining the high speed rotation of the generator. Magnetic Levitation is the phenomenon which is anybody is freely suspended in the air without any support with the opposed of gravitational energy. This magnetic levitation occurred due to the repulsion between the two symmetrical poles. The strong levitation is occurred with the used of permanent magnets. This project presents a review on the performance of vertical wind turbine wind turbines. This type of turbine is not commonly use and its applications for obtaining useful energy from air stream is still considered as an alternative source. Low wind speed start-up, working with any wind direction, and the less noise are some advantage of VAWT.
