Wind energy systems are energized by the naturally flowing wind, therefore it can be considered as a fresh source of energy. In addition, the wind energy is accessible as a domestic source of power in many countries worldwide and not bound to just a couple of nations, as on account of oil. However, the output of a wind turbine relies on upon the turbine's size and the wind's speed through the rotor. The amount of power created by the horizontal axis wind turbine is proportional to rotor area and power of wind velocity. In present paper the experimental and analytical study with finite element analysis has been carried out with considering dependent factors like wind speed, number of blades, size of blades to evaluate maximum output power. It is observed that, the eight numbers of blades with 1200mm diameter is more effective in terms of power output.
