Wind Energy Power Curve Logger Kit with Arduino Uno + Sensor
Log Wind Turbine Power Curves Over Days with Arduino Uno and Precision Sensors
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Turn a small homemade turbine into a scientific instrument that reveals the real relationship between wind speed and electrical power. Using a hall sensor to count rotations and an INA219 to measure voltage and current, you’ll capture timestamped data over hours or days. The result is a genuine power curve you can analyse for physics projects, renewable energy studies, or hackathon demonstrations.
What You'll Build
A complete wind energy monitoring station. Wire the A3144 hall sensor to detect turbine RPM, the INA219 across a load to log power, and the DS3231 RTC to attach precise timestamps. Live readings glow on the 0.96‑inch OLED, while every measurement streams to a microSD card for later analysis. Fit the sensor assembly onto a small DC‑motor turbine and you’ll generate a power‑versus‑wind‑speed dataset that grows more insightful with every passing gust.
What You'll Learn
- Convert hall‑effect pulses to RPM and estimate wind speed using a calibration factor
- Interface the INA219 via I2C to read voltage, current, and power with 1% accuracy
- Operate the DS3231 RTC to stamp each log entry with the true date and time
- Store comma‑separated data on a microSD module and import it into Excel or Google Sheets for power‑curve plotting

Who This Kit Is For
CBSE Class 11–12 students assembling physics or environmental science projects on renewable energy will find it a perfect fit. B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates preparing mini‑projects for Smart India Hackathon can use the logged data to model wind‑turbine efficiency. It’s also designed for ATL Tinkering Lab members who want hands‑on experience with Arduino‑based sensor integration and long‑duration data logging.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code on the box to open the AI companion — it knows every wiring step and code block for this wind logger. WhatsApp help from our team is also available during Indian business hours.
Does the kit include a wind turbine?
No, the kit contains all the electronics and sensors to build the data logger. You can use any small DC motor as a generator (from an old toy or hobby store) and a fan or natural wind to spin it.
How long can the system log data?
The SD card stores a timestamped line of voltage, current, and RPM each second. Even a small card holds thousands of hours of readings, and you can adjust the logging interval in the code to suit your experiment.
Can I submit this for a science exhibition or college project?
Absolutely. The kit demonstrates energy conversion, data acquisition, and Arduino programming — core elements for CBSE exhibitions, B.Tech mini projects, and ATL innovation challenges. The AI companion can help you prepare charts and explain your findings.
Anemometer hall sensor and INA219 on mini turbine build a power vs wind speed curve over several days.
