Details
The STEM Experiment Kit: Wind Power (V 4.0) offers a hands-on exploration of renewable energy through wind technology. Users can build a functional wind turbine featuring an electric generator and intricately curved, adjustable rotor blades that mimic the aerodynamic design of actual wind turbines. By altering blade angles, users perform experiments to enhance turbine efficiency, generate electricity to power an LED, and charge a rechargeable battery. The generator can also be converted into an electric motor, allowing users to build a compact electric car that runs on stored wind energy.
The kit includes a full-color, 32-page manual with detailed illustrations, guiding users through assembly and experiments. It also provides background on the history of wind energy, various windmill and turbine types, and practical uses for wind-generated power.
