About This Product
Placed in sunlight or under a strong lamp, the panel produces direct current and the motor shaft starts turning, showing light becoming electrical and then mechanical energy. Blowing air from a fan at the rotor turns the generator through a magnetic field, inducing a current that lights the LEDs, which makes Faraday’s law and the photovoltaic effect easy to compare side by side. Laboratories and colleges in Portugal, Gambia, Afghanistan, Panama and Mauritania can buy the Solar Wind Dynamo Model STEM Lab through an export order.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the wind part of the Solar Wind Dynamo Model tested indoors?
Fit the blades onto the dynamo shaft and direct air from a desk fan or hair dryer at them. The spinning rotor generates a current that lights the LED array.
