Science Project for Kids - Making of a Steam Turbine

Science Project for Kids-How to make a Steam Turbine?

I have published curiosity series related to manufacture and use of science equipment for lower secondary and secondary level home experiments. These type of project can be also considered to be fun science. Some of our topic related to these are - Elementary Science Project, Science Project for Kids, Stem Fair ideas, Fun Science etc, Easy Science project ideas etc.

You may curious about How to make a water turbine? by a very simple idea and with affordable  material.  Water Turbine model that I am going to show is very Simple. But do you know what is a Steam Turbine?

What is a Steam Turbine?

How to make a STEAM TURBINE? - A Easy Science Project for Kids.

NECESSARY MATERIALS:

A container made of tin, water, fine but strong wire, a piece of refill, a source of heat, a piece of tin sheet, a wooden block, stand, wire-gauge.

Model : Steam Engine - Science Project for School

METHOD:

Make a wheel of tin as in water turbine, and set the refill in the wire and then set the wheel in it. Then bend the wire and fix it on the wooden block.

Make a hole through the upper portion of the container. Fill water almost in its half and it with the cap. Now, set all the materials as shown in the  picture and heat the water of container with a spirit  lamp or any other  source of heat. Water will get heated and then push the fans of the wheel. As the result, the wheel will start to rotate.

REASON: 

as given in water turbine. visit here.

      Note:The water vapor may push and open the cap. Hence, if 2-4 more holes are made, vapor can’t open it.
