Principle

This experiment shows that a thermo generator can produce
mechanical energy with the help of coldness and heat. The thermal
tension of a thermo generator depends on the temperature difference
across the element.

Benefits


Experiment is part of a complete solution set with a total of
17 experiments for Renewable Energy Basics and Heat energy

Direct protection of the thermocouple against overheating due
to fixed aluminum plates

Additional aluminum block for storage of heat energy


Tasks


Can a motor be put into motion with heat or coldness?

In this experiment the thermocouple is connected to a motor.
You will try to activate the motor  by placing a mug with hot
water or ice cubes on the thermocouple.
