Abstract :In this study, transverse flux generator design for micro-wind turbines has been realized. In parallel with the developments in telecommunications in recent years, the use of cell phones and satellite internet has increased. Renewable energy sources are an important candidate to provide energy access and sustainability in rural areas. In this respect, a low-cost, easy-to-build generator that can be produced with 3D printers has been designed. The generator produced has a simple coil and core structure and is a low-cost design. In addition, ANSYS magnetic analyzes were performed together with the 3D solid model of the design. In addition, the core width was optimized and the cogging torque had been improved by 18.29 %.Keywords : Cogging torque, ANSYS Maxwell, Transverse flux generator
