This paper deals a new method based on analytical approach. The design of rotor and its peak performance production, a blade is divided into 100 radial elements. The blade chord, its twist and its elementary power co-efficient at each station were determined. The iterative process required for the convergence of speed interference factor and for maximization of power coefficient. The design process begins right at maximum power point, rather than searching of point of maximum power and then doing the computations. Mathematical Simulation based on analytical approach for energy estimation correlate with practical reading of 10 kW H.A.W.T rotors at Rajeev Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishvavidyalaya (RGPV), Bhopal and new method developed for the same have been described.
