About This Product
On a water-resistant surface, a controlled flow of water is directed at the turbine and students watch the turbine and dynamo turn together. Where a meter or indicator is connected, the electrical response can be observed too. The model links kinetic, mechanical and electrical energy in one sequence and can be compared with the Turbine Pump Unit. Afterwards the apparatus is drained and dried.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What energy changes does the model show? Kinetic energy in the moving water turns the turbine, giving mechanical energy, and the dynamo converts that rotation into electrical energy, the same sequence used in hydroelectric generation.
