Wind Energy in the Classroom

No Cost Wind Energy Inquiry Investigation This lesson was adapted from the Science Olympiad Wind Power competition. More information is available at http://www.soinc.org/wind_power_c.

Supplies: Discman-type CD player CD’s Lightweight cardboard Duct tape and/or masking tape Scissors Ring stand Box fan Multimeter

Turbine Set-up http://soinc.org/sites/default/files/uploaded_files/PhysicalScienceLabSetup.pdf

The Klentschy Inquiry Method Engaging Scenario Focus Question Prediction Procedure Data Collection Research Making Meaning Conference Conclusions Reflections/Next Steps/ New Questions

Lesson Ideas: Test turbines at high speed & low speed fan settings. Test turbine for 30 seconds. Record the highest reading. Compete for overall efficiency; power output and overall mass.
