Abstract—Basically, wind turbines capture wind power and
convert it into electricity. Conventional operation using a single
set of rotating blades of the wind turbine, thus it will limit the
rotation of the generator’s stator. This condition will cause the
generated output voltage is limited. The purpose of this project is
to design and develop a double rotational generator with a
double rotational vertical axis wind turbine that has the ability to
produce double output voltages and functional in both high and
low wind speed condition. Therefore, a certain shape and size of
the blade are divided efficiently designed for this project. The
output voltages generated by cutting the magnetic flux generator
which combines the use of permanent magnets and a set of
winding. The project performance was analyzed based on the
effect of wind speed on the output voltages that induced by
cutting magnetic flux.

I. PROJECT BACKGROUND
For conventional generators, there usually used single
rotation which is only the rotor will rotate, while the stator
will remain static [1], [2]. Single rotating of generator limit the
rotation and directly limit the output voltage [2], [3]. Double
rotation of axial axis generator was designed to solve this
problem. The generator also is known as a multifunction
generator due to the rotor can be as a stator and a stator can be
as a rotor. Due to this situation, the resulting output produced
by this multifunction generator will be higher compared to the
output produced by the conventional generator.
