Thames & Kosmos Wind Power Kit V5.0

Description

With this kit, you can assemble a realistic wind turbine complete with electric generator and adjustable rotor blades designed with complex aerodynamic curves to look and work like modern-day wind turbine blades. Experiment with the integrated hand crank to feel energy generation in your hands. Conduct experiments to optimize the turbine’s performance by adjusting the angle of the blades and discover how to use the wind turbine to light up an LED.

The full-color, 32-page manual offers illustrated instructions and scientific information that explores the different types of wind turbines and windmills, the history of this technology, and how wind energy can be used to power homes and electric cars.
