Includes 2 Boulder 30 Solar Panels, Goal Zero YETI 400 Portable Power Station (battery), Boulder Solar Tripod, clips, and charging cable.
This Solar Thermal Exploration Kit is modeled after a domestic solar water-heating system. How you design the solar heating system will dramatically affect how quickly the water will heat and the maximum temperature the water will reach. The kit allows you to explore variables such as box color, light intensity, tube design, rate of water pumping, and amount of time it takes to heat the water.
This kit includes 3 solar panels that allow students to explore series and parallel circuits. Experiment with variables like the amount of shade, temperature, or load on solar panel output. Harness energy to pump water or power a small motor. Track and document the path of the sun by testing angles and collecting data throughout the day.
100 small experiments! Create a wind turbine, solar boat, power a house with a wind turbine, etc. This might be best used as a teacher demo kit.
Students can explore solar, wind, and water energy by building a windmill, sail car, wind-powered water lift, hydroelectric generator, hydro car, grist mill, solar car, crank wheel, and shuttle ride! It comes with a teacher guide and allows up to 3 models at a time.
Power an electrical circuit by solar panel or a wind tunnel! Generate hydrogen through water electrolysis and convert it into electricity using a PEM fuel cell. Ability for 9 different experiments and 10 class periods.
