Wind Power Science Kit

Wind Power Science kit from Thames and Kosmos shows how one of the most promising sources of clean, renewable energy is wind itself.

With this kit, you can assemble a realistic wind turbine complete with electric generator and adjustable rotor blades that are designed with complex aerodynamic curves to look and work like modern-day wind turbine blades. Then, conduct experiments to optimise the turbine’s performance by adjusting the angle of the blades and discover how to use the wind turbine to light up an LED and charge a rechargeable battery.

Convert the generator into an electric motor and assemble a small electric car to demonstrate a tangible application for the stored electricity.
