Windmill Tesbed
thingiverse
This lab apparatus was designed for the University of Aberdeen to study wind turbines. Moray generated .mdl files that were compiled using OpenSCAD's included plugin. To use it, students create wind-turbine blades attached to a hub, which slots onto a lego shaft and faces a desk fan. If the turbine works, the 30:1 gearbox rotates, winding up to one kilo mass on a bobbin, indicating power via potential energy (joules or watts). Print files specify materials like PLA/ABS, print nozzle sizes (0.2/0.4 mm), and build layers (0.2/0.1 mm) in their filenames for easy reference during printing. Incomplete shopping lists can be completed by downloading the attached RAR file instructions, which include numerous pictures for guidance.
