A water pump powered by hybrid solar and wind energy

Abstract

There is enough wind and solar energy around the world to meet all of humanity's energy needs. Vertical Axis wind turbines (VAWT) can be as efficient as the current horizontal axis system, cheaper to build and maintain than horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT). They have other unique advantages, such as the fact that they are always dependent on wind, which makes them important in everyday life for inexpensive, clean, renewable energy sources. Many rural areas do not have access to electricity, which makes it difficult to water and irrigate livestock. VAWT can even play a key role in solving the problems of stability and reliability of network connections pumped from power producers and suppliers. In addition, inexpensive VAWT can become an alternative to the destruction of tropical forests for growing crops using biofuels. In this project, we will try to design and build a Savonius wind turbine with a vertical water pumping axis. We also produce a hybrid model of water pump driven by solar and wind turbines. The solar energy from the solar panel converts this electrical energy into mechanical energy, which converts the shaft connected to the crankshaft. Using a crank mechanism rotating in an up and down motion, and we use this to lift the water.
