Wind Turbines

Here are the amazing wind turbines, designed, built and tested by 5D.  The students worked in groups to create a wind turbine that would take wind energy and transform it into electrical energy.  The turbine had to be a stable structure that could resist the force of the wind.  It also had to have a theme and be decorated as something interesting.  The students chose the materials that their turbines were built from and decided on the size, shape and number of blades.  They tested the strength of their turbines using a multi-metre to measure the volts.  Students then, revised their designs to make them more powerful and/or more stable.  Well done everyone!
