About This Product
The model is used in physics and energy lessons to show the principle of a hydroelectric power station on a bench scale. Students can vary the water flow and watch how the LED brightness changes, and use the clear front to study how the impeller blades are driven.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Water Turbine Model show that electricity is produced?
Water passing through turns the plastic impeller, which drives the dynamo; a built-in LED lights when sufficient electricity is generated.
Can students see the impeller working?
Yes. The casing has a transparent front so the impeller can be seen spinning as water passes through.
