How Do You Make A Model Wind Pump For A Science Project?
Making a model wind pump for a science project challenges budding scientists and engineers to learn to create electrical power using wind turbines. By hooking the turbine to a miniature water pump, students can explore the practical uses of the green, clean wind energy that is present all around us. Put on your safety goggles. Insert four 6-inch straight PVC pipes into four separate 90° corner joins. Connect two of these assemblies with a T-join. Do the same with the other two, making sure that the corners are pointing the same direction, as these will be the feet of your tower. Lay the footed assembly pieces across from each other with the open end of the T-joins pointing in. Insert a 6-inch straight PVC piece in the open T-join on both sides. Drill a small hole at the center top of another T-join. Insert each side of the footed assembly to this T-join with the open end pointing up. Insert the 24-inch straight PVC into the open T-join to create the tower. Attach a 90° corner join to t
