The Dr. FuelCell Science Kit - Complete is designed for a "hands on" experience with solar hydrogen energy technology for both student and teacher.
Using the very latest renewable energy technology, students will learn standard science and engineering topics aligned to the NGSS and STEM standards. Watch as your students are inspired by seeing how solar energy can be harnessed, stored and later converted to electricity using a PEM Fuel Cell.
This exciting technology is the same technology being used to build hybrid energy systems, power schools, homes and cars. In addition to covering standard curriculum topics in chemistry and physics, this durable, high quality product also allows students to investigate important renewable energy topics such fuel cells, solar energy, hydrogen and energy conversion and storage.
Each kit includes a four-volume set of text books that contain over 20 experiments that cover topics such as electrochemistry, thermodynamics, energy conversion and efficiency, molecules and chemical reactions and measuring and interpreting characteristic curves. Perform experiments for topics such as Faraday’s First Law, Avogadro’s Constant, Electrolysis, System Efficiency, Greenhouse Effect, Solar Cells (Light Source, Shadow Effects, Angle, Efficiency), Parallel and Series Circuits, Energy Storage and Conversion, and Creation of a Characteristic Curve, to name a few.
Watch as students get hands-on building their own energy system, learn relevant Science and STEM topics and get introduced to renewable energy technology. Prepare your students for a greener future!
