Abstrak

The utilization of renewable energy is crucial to reducing reliance on fossil fuels, particularly in Indonesia, where average wind speeds are relatively low. This study aims to design and test a multilevel shrouded wind turbine prototype capable of enhancing wind speed and power generation efficiency. The prototype was tested using different guide angle variations of 30°, 45°, and 60°, as well as configurations with 4 and 8 shroud levels. The results indicate that a 30° angle with 8 shroud levels provides the highest wind speed increase of up to 163% and system efficiency of up to 114%. In contrast, the 60° angle configuration resulted in a decrease in wind speed and efficiency. Therefore, the multilevel shrouded design presents an effective solution for wind utilization in low wind speeds areas. Keywords : Wind shrouded, increases efficiency of turbine.
