The aim of this research work is to find the optimized efficiency of Vertical Axis Wind Turbine with different types of rotor blade profiles. A scaled down model has been designed and analysis is done to determine the performance of Vertical Axis Wind Turbine based on different series of blade profile sections, solidity ratio, wind speed and the number of blades. Experimental testing of these blades is done using low speed wind tunnel .The experimental results will be validated with theoretical results obtained from simulation software i.e.,ANSYS. Based upon the results obtained the performance characteristics of VAWT based on various parameters will be formulated.
