Wind Energy Explorations - E-Book

The Vernier Resistor Board has seven 1 W 5% resistors mounted on a circuit board. Test clip holes on either side of the resistors allow for easy connections to clips on wire leads.The Vernier Resistor Board provides an ideal set of load resistors for KidWind wind turbines and solar panels. Resistor values: 10 Ω, 15 Ω, 20 Ω, 30 Ω, 39 Ω, 51 Ω, and 100 Ω Dimensions: 3.5 in long by 2 in wide Four insulated jumper wires fitted with mini-alligator clips included

Si tratta di una turbina facile da costruire che accende una lampadina LED e suona una melodia. Le pale altamente efficienti producono molta energia in un leggero vento.

Explore wind energy affordably and easily. This kit, one of our most popular, allows young scientists to test a variety of blade designs, generate electricity (0.5 –3 V range), and lift weights. The Basic Wind Experiment Kit has all the materials you need to get started understanding wind power. Great for classrooms, as well as individual science fair projects.  

Description Simpler to use than a multimeter, the Go Direct Energy Sensor measures the voltage and current oputput of a renewable energy system. Connect a source, such as a small wind turbine or solar panel, and our free Graphical Analysis 4 app displays voltage, current, power, and energy output. For simple energy measurements, Go Direct Energy includes a fixed load of 30 Ω. For more advanced experiments, electrical contacts are built into the sensor to connect to an external load, such as the Variable Load, a resistor on Vernier Resistor Board, a water pump, or lights. The Go Direct Energy Sensor is ideal for a wide variety of renewable energy experiments:  Investigate the electrical energy generated by a wind turbine or solar panel. Explore the effect of load on wind turbine or solar panel output. Test blade design variables and evaluate data to determine optimal blade design. Rechargeable Battery—Ready When You Are The robust rechargeable battery offers long battery life and provides always-ready operation when using the sensor wirelessly. Monitor battery life directly from our free Graphical Analysis™ 4 app or LabQuest 2 App. Should the battery run low, simply connect the sensor to the charging cable and keep on collecting—no interruptions or inconvenience to you or your students. Wired or Wireless—The Flexibility to Choose Our Go Direct sensors connect directly to your mobile device, Chromebook™, or computer using our free Graphical Analysis™ 4 app—no additional equipment or software purchases are necessary. Go Direct sensors can be used wired via USB or wirelessly via Bluetooth® wireless technology, allowing you to choose the solution best for your classroom or laboratory.
