Function and Applications
A significant percentage of power from renewable energies originates from hydropower. To familiarize students with this important topic, this experimenting kit offers both introductory experiments on hydroenergy in general as well as fundamental quantitative experiments on the physics of water turbines. Different types of turbines are used: from a simple water wheel to a modern, highly efficient Pelton turbine.
Benefits
