TY - JOUR AU - Rasheed, Kamran AB - The purpose of this project is to design a wind turbine which recaptures wind energy from vehicles on the highway. Wind energy is considered as the fastest growing clean energy source; although it is limited by variable natural wind. Highways are good source of wind which left behind wind by the fast-moving vehicle traffic. This wind is useless till it can be used to drive the fan of the wind turbine. This energy is not only unmeasured in potential but also being witnessed going to waste. This energy is unused and could prove to be a boon for power related problems. A preliminary investigation of the characteristics of this VAWT has been done, and a data set has been collected. The objective to design this prototype wind turbine through the re-engineering is to generate power from the wind of the moving vehicle which remains unused. The design of the wind turbine is simple, and it is a low-cost wind turbine. Previously, these wind mills were established in rural areas. The main motive of this project is to install this wind mill in cities for better production of electricity. The wind draft behind the turbine is used as a source, which rotates the blades of wind turbine. This project idea is going to supersede the profanation in atmosphere which was indicted due to scalded fossil fuel.
