Wind Turbine Kit Class Set

Class set (25-30 students)

This kit provides learners with the opportunity to design blades to
generate electricity with a model wind turbine. Learners will explore
the impact of materials, shape and number of blades on the generation of
electricity in a wind turbine assembly. This kit is paired well with an
industry expert to consult on the design and generation of wind
turbines. There are enough blade materials for a class of 25+ to each
design their own set of blades, and then test them on one of the three turbine set ups.

  1. Wind turbine (3)
  2. Vernier Resistor Board (3)
  3. LED board (3)
  4. Blade Pitch Protractor (3)
