Popis: The solution to various environmental problems now is the development of renewable energy. One of the renewable energy that was sociable to the environment and easily obtained is wind energy. Savonius wind turbines are proper to be applied in Indonesia which have low wind speeds, besides that Savonius also has many advantages over other wind turbines. In this paper experimental study is done a study on conventional Savonius wind turbine and modified Savonius wind turbine by added multiple layer 90°, 115°, 135° at positions 0° and 30°. The schematic supportive testing is done by blower fan. The wind speed used in testing with a range of 4.99 m/s to 7.27 m/s. The test results showed that the addition of multiple layers could be increased Savonius’s power coefficient to 17.6%. The maximum power coefficient obtained by Savonius turbine was 0.120 with variations multiple layer 90° at 0° position. So, the addition of multiple layer can be improved the performance of the Savonius wind turbine
