Wind Turbine / Wind Energy - Working Demonstration Model

Wind Turbine / Wind Energy - Working Demonstration Model

Students build from the kit elements a functioning mini version of a wind generator, i.e., a wind turbine, which is the fundamental component of a wind power plant, where the current is obtained by converting the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical rotation of the turbine blades, and subsequently into electrical energy. This is clean and renewable energy. The advanced construction of the turbine allows students to experiment with different blade settings and quantities — the set includes 3 different blade types (a total of 9 blades) inspired by NASA aeronautical research, as well as modern sheet blades. LEDs indicate the flow of current. Dimensions: 47 x 32 x 21 cm

Set contents: • mini wind turbine (wind generator) • stabilizer orienting the turbine toward the wind • 3-phase generator • different blade types • LEDs demonstrating current flow
