    The document describes an experiment to create a heat powered turbine. Students will trace and cut a spiral shape from paper and attach it to a wooden stick. They will stand the stick up over a candle so that the heat from the flame causes the spiral to spin, simulating a turbine. After performing the experiment, students are asked questions about how heat produces work in this model and how it compares to real turbines used in machines.

    Grade level and section:


    Heat Powered Turbine
    Materials:
    Scissors and pin
    Mug with circular bottom
    3 Small candles
    Wooden barbecue stick
    Paper (Coupon bond)
    Styrofoam (where to put the stick)

    Procedure:
    1. Trace a circle from the paper.
    2. Cut a spiral from a circle aluminum foil.
    3. Pin the middle end of the spiral to the top edge of the stick.
    5. Make the stick stand on the candle. Make sure that the stick is sturdy enough. (or put the stick to the Styrofoam)
    6. Lit the candle. You may want to add another candle. Observe what happens.

    Observation:
    Post-Laboratory Questions:
    1. How does heat produce work in challenge?
    2. Based on this experiment, how will you compare this to a real powered turbine used in machines?
    3. Give your own conclusion to this experiment.
