Abstract
ABSTRAK Wind energy utilization for area with low wind speed potential such as Indonesia remains low due to its low efficiency value. Therefore This research aim to designing and simulation of small wind turbine that can be use in indonesia. We considered for this wind turbin blade are 3. NACA airfoil 4412 was selected and 1.13 of coefficient lift maximum .We designing the blade of wind turbin using software solidworks. The simulation using software Q-blade for the blade radius 1.3 m with various angle of attack 0°, 10°,15°.
