Fan Blades: From 2-Liter bottles Generator: 20 small magnets positioned around a metal disk with alternating poles -magnets spin over 12 coils of wire Blades attached to brass pipe that spins within two ball bearings.
4
Wind enters through one side of the blades and exits through the other side of the overlapping blades --Two-tiered blade design Fan blades are attached to a brass rod which spins the magnets over the coils
5
Magnets are placed around a metal disk and alternate in polarity ◦ This gives an alternating current when passing over the coils ◦ Coils are attached in series (makes voltage additive)
6
Any variation in orientation of the coils significantly impacted the power created. We had to add more coils than we intended. The 2-liter bottles were hard to position in the styrofoam.
7
Measured voltage=1.75 volts For the wind produced by the fan:
8
Our windmill created enough voltage and amperage to light the light bulb. We had a few minor difficulties, but our original design ultimately worked.
