My Wind Turbine Science Experiment.

Posted by: admin

Need a Science Fair Experiment?

Always wanting to try this, here are the results of my experiment.
For more on electricity old theories and new ones, visit:

You can do the same.
Note:. I used random parts and tried to keep the LED values low, with what I had on hand.
Transistors are like electronic (one way) valves.
The center leg controls the opening and closing or amplification of the valve. Using only that part of a PNP transistor, I devised my own diode for this experiment.

Transistors replaced vacuum tubes. They are used mostly 2 ways. To amplify the signal passing through, or to act as an “electronic switch”.
Current only goes through one way, and by increasing or decreasing the bias current on the center leg, you can control the flow though it.
In most cases, adding even higher voltage, increases the output, thus making it an amplifier.

Diodes allow electricity to go only one way, which makes a great gate.

DC electricity’s electrons always flow from Negative to Positive.

Same as Earth’s Negative electrons flying to a positive charge in the sky. AKA lightning.

Yes, it is a scientific fact. Ask Ben Franklin!.

Thanks for watching and keep using your heads.

Lecture 6 | Woods Energy Seminar Winter 2009

Posted by: admin

February 11, 2009 lecture by Jefferson Tester for the Woods Energy Seminar (ENERGY301). In his talk “A Pathway for Widespread Utilization of Geothermal Energy–the Roles of Multi-scale Resource and Technology Research and Systems Analysis,” Tester talks about the benefits and challenges of harnessing geothermal energy, and he erts that it is a large resource that complements solar and wind energy and is both carbon free and scalable.

The Woods Energy Seminar is an interdisciplinary series of talks primarily by Stanford experts on a broad range of energy topics. Jefferson Tester is the David Croll Chair for Sustainable Energy Systems and ociate Director for the Cornell Center for a Sustainable Future in the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Cornell University.
