HORIZON WIND TO HYDROGEN SCIENCE KIT
Enable your students to invent their own clean energy applications using a small electric motor powered by a fuel cell. Hydrogen is produced through water electrolysis by a reversible PEM fuel cell that is itself powered by a wind turbine with profiled blades based on NASA aeronautics. This hydrogen is then converted to electrical energy by the fuel cell and can be used to power a small fan.

Features:
• Turn wind power into hydrogen energy
• Build your own hydrogen fuel cell powered inventions
• Revolutionary new Horizon wind turbine
• Includes Horizon’s complete curriculum on renewable energy on CD
• Demonstrate the principles of wind energy, hydrogen fuel cells, electrolysis and basic electronics

Energy from Hydrogen Experiments:
• Electrolysis mode generating H2 and O2
• Fuel cell mode generating electricity from H2 and O2
• Determining the minimum water decomposition voltage
• Polarization states for hydrogen fuel cells

Wind Energy Experiments:
• How many blades are best - 1, 2, 3 ... more?
• Using three different curved blade shapes
• Using blades you make yourself
• Turbine efficiencies
• Measuring RPM
• Tuning for maximum power
• How blade angle or pitch affects output power
• To generate hydrogen

The FCJJ-24 Horizon Energy Meter is the ideal accessory to feed live experiment data to your PC to be displayed as graphical data
