The main objective of this research was to produce a prototype of a simple water pump using a TSAV (vertical axis wind turbine) wind turbine as a prime mover and to analyze the relationship between wind speed and speed of windmill spin with the dependent variable in the form of water flow from the pump. The study used experimental and design methods. The test results obtained a wind speed of 3.6 m/s in an average windmill rotation of 5.6 rpm. Based on ANOVA test, the wind speed in the morning, afternoon, evening, and night had a significant difference. The highest wind speed occurred during the day at 4.3 m/s while the lowest wind speed occurred at night at 2.2 m/s. Water discharge generated by the pump was 2.0347 liters/minute with an efficiency of 89.7% pump. The results of the analysis showed that wind speed, windmill spin, and water discharge could change linearly. The higher the wind speed, the greater the number of spinning windmills, and the more water discharge produced. Therefore, the results of testing the pump can work well and has the potential to be developed in the region with the existing wind speed.
