Well see, i have this Science project eh? And for some extra credit, i can make a model of an alternative energy that was assigned to us. Ive got geothermal, and i have no idea how to make a model, because you know, sadly, magma is not allowed for school projects.

DO NOT ATTEMPT ALONE! YOU’LL NEED AN ADULT TO ASSIST YOU IN THIS PROJECT!
Items needed
1. Electric Water kettle (commonly called Tea Kettle) are meant to heat only water. You can paint the outside of the kettle to look like earth!!!!
1. Candy and deep-fry thermometer
1. Child’s pinwheel
Various TYPEs OF COUPLINGS AND ADAPTERS With an increase in the size of the opening-

1) Reynolds Number = inertia flow forces/ friction forces (or viscosity) indicates the type of flow.
Reynolds No.
0-2000
2000-3000
3000 + Range Type of Flow
aminar
transient
turbulent
(2) Heat Gain is the total amount of energy converted to heat energy which will raise the fluid temperature if it is
not dissipated.
(3) Horsepower Lossis a measure of the conversion of mechanical energy to heat energy and is related to system heat gain.
