ABSTRACT
Hydro energy is important as clean energy resource. Savonius rotor is a vertical axis rotor with simple in design and easy to fabricate at lower cost. The rotation of the rotor is due to the drag diff erence between the advancing blade and returning blade. Net driving force can be increased by reducing the reverse force on the returning blade or increasing the positive force on the advancing blade. Former can be realized by providing a flow obstacle to the returning blade and latter can be realized by concentrating the flow towards the advancing blade. Various Design of 2 stage savonius hydro turbine in which comparison and investigation on performance and make comparison between different design of savonious turbine.
