Before You Start: What Makes the Solar Wheels Turn?

How to Assemble Your Solar Updraft Towers

General Instructions

Safety Information

>>> Solar Updraft Tower Assembly, Continued

Contents

DEAR PARENTS: With this experiment kit, children as young as seven years of age

will be able to perform experiments with the power of the sun. The comparative

experiments, which use two sets of components and two different mounted solar

attachments, will help them learn about solar energy, thermal lift, and solar updraft

towers in a fun and playful way. When assembling the solar towers, wheels, and

constructing their own attachments, they will be actively and creatively engaged. Please

help your young investigators, since the curiosity and comprehension powers of young

children are often better developed than their manual abilities, and make sure to provide

them with any additional materials that are not contained in the kit. Have fun with the

experiments!

› 4 Colored die-cut card sheets

› 2 White die-cut card sheets

› 1 Solar wheel die-cut sheet

› 1 Sheet of clear plastic film

› 2 Wooden sticks

› 1 Piece of clay

› 2 Needles

› 2 Metal caps

› 1 Tracing paper cutout sheet

You will also need:

› Glue

› Tape

› Scissors

› Aluminum tealight candle holder

NOTE! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age. There is a risk of suffocation due

to small parts that might be swallowed or inhaled.

Save the packaging and instructions, which contain important information.

STEP 4

Glue the cone together.

STEP 5

Divide the clay into two equal-

sized pieces, shape them into

disks about 2 cm thick, and

insert the wooden sticks into

them flat-end first.

STEP 6

Tape the needle pointy-end up to the top

end of the wooden stick. Place the metal

cap on the needle. Be careful not to stick

yourself with the needle! Never let the

wooden stick sit around without a cap

over the needle!

STEP 7

Place the clay disk with the wooden stick,

needle, and metal cap in the center of the

cone.

Now the base of your solar updraft tower

is complete.

YOU WILL NEED:

› Colored die-cut card sheet, clay,

wooden sticks, needles, metal caps

› Glue, tape

STEP 1

Tip!

If your cone isn’t perfectly

round, carefully bend it into

shape with your hands.

The wheels at the top of your solar

updraft towers turn with the help of a

stream of warm air. Most substances

“expand” when they are heated. Heat

makes air and other gases expand quite a

bit. You can actually feel that air is not

“nothing,” but is actually a , substance

when you ride your bicycle against the

wind or when you stretch your hand out

the car window while driving along.

Air gets when it expands and rises lighter

upward through colder air. This kind of “air

elevator” is known as an or updraft

thermal. Birds and hang gliders use

thermal lift to climb upward. The term

comes from Classical Greek , therme

meaning “heat.”

You can intensify thermal lift through

something called the “stack effect,” which

narrows the stream of air through a cone

or pipe, just like a chimney. The higher the

chimney, the stronger the upward flow of

air. And that is exactly how your solar

wheels work.

Remove the black card sections from the

die-cut sheets and lay them out in front of

you as shown in the picture. You will need

two card sections for each solar wheel

cone.

STEP 2

Apply glue to the right edge of one card

section.

STEP 3

Affix the left edge of your other card section

to the glued edge, and apply more glue to

the right edge.
