Energy Table Exhibit
The Energy Table exhibit is an ideal addition to science centers, science museums, interactive learning centers, and educational environments. It offers a captivating journey into the world of clean energy, promoting sustainability and sparking curiosity about renewable power sources. Join us in exploring the future of energy with the Energy Table exhibit.
Here, visitors delve into the world of clean energy as they explore the principles behind solar, wind, and hydropower. Discover how these renewable sources of energy work and compete with fellow visitors to generate the most electricity.
Visitor Experience
The Energy Table offers an immersive experience that allows visitors to interact with clean energy sources and understand their inner workings.
- Solar Power Showdown: In the solar power section, visitors encounter two light sources, two solar cell panels, two voltmeters, and two mirrors mounted on the table with a joint. Each mirror is controlled by one visitor, sparking a friendly competition to generate the highest current. Adjust the mirrors to capture the light more and maximize electricity production.
- Wind Power Activation: At the wind power station, visitors take charge by pushing a button to activate a hidden wind source that sets the wind turbine in motion on the table. Observe the voltmeter to measure the current level generated by the spinning turbine. Compare your wind energy output with others and learn the power of harnessing the wind.
- Hydropower Simulation: The hydropower station comes to life as visitors press a button to activate the simulated hydropower plant. Watch as virtual water flows towards a scaled-down Pelton wheel, causing it to turn slowly. Experience the fascinating process of converting flowing water into electricity and gain insights into hydropower generation.
