Our kit started
off simple me and another two of my
team mates put it together. We thought that it was going to be a hard task to
complete, but ounce the project came along we were able to have fun and
luckily the only problem was trying to generate power through to the diode.
When we were finished this was a small picture of how our turbine kit looked after we put it
together and tor it apart a few times |

This is a
picture of me and my team mate and
that kit that I used as a example to help me build my own kit. I took some
old spear parts off my old kit (such
as the coils) because the coils that I
was attempting to use were very weak and were coated wire. I stole and extra coil to generate an
equal amount of energy to create a current because I had 4magnets and only
the 3coils so I had to add a extra ONE. |

When I
originally started building my own kit from scratch I had to go and find parts
that were similar and identical to the ones we had used in class. Before
running out to RadioShack I had to
make a small list of the items that I
needed. 1.wire 2.Magnets 3.diode 4.wooden stick 5.plastic bottle 6.card board 7. and a glue
gun |

Turbine Costs
$8.00 total for
Turbine Test
Procedures
- Look at the website and find out what parts were needed
- Go out to local hardware store and gather all needed
parts for turbine kit
- Measure and figure out the length of each side of the arms
to hold up turbine
- Determine how many magnets and wire was needed to
generate enough power through the kit
- Test the turbine out and see if it generates any kind of
electricity
