Wind Energy Kit

Model No. DL WIND-L

This system provides you with all the answers you need concerning the basics of using wind energy.
It discusses different topics, which are necessary for understanding the functions of wind power plants.
The study of how wind force, wind direction or rotor type influences the power output are only some examples of possible experiments.
Both qualitative and quantitative experiments are described in detail in the manual provided with the kit.

EXPERIMENTS
– Measuring the wind speed
– Installing and replacing the rotor blades
– Influence of the wind speed on a wind turbine
– Changing wind speed by changing the distance
– Start-up wind speed at a wind turbine
– Comparison of the start-up wind speed of a Savonius and a three-blade rotor
– Change the turbine voltage by connecting a consumer (with resistance)
– Change the turbine voltage by connecting several consumers
– Examine the wind speed behind the rotor
– Energy balance sheet at a wind turbine
– Calculating the efficiency of a wind turbine
