Group Brainstorming

Brainstorming is when a group produce an idea or way of solving a problem by holding a Wind Turbinecreative group discussion. The class had to choose an science experiment based on sustainability. After research and discussion our group finally decided on building a wind turbine using LabView. I have always been really passionate about wind turbines since they were built on the mountains in my hometown. From my personal experience with them I thought it would be an interesting project to build one of our own to understand better how they work. Previously the group looked at options such as greenhouse gases, insulation, and solar panels. Solar panels were quickly removed because we couldn’t do our experiment outside and a flashlight would be boring. Insulation and greenhouse gases were eliminated because they weren’t as involved an experiment and we didn’t know where we would beTurbine Diagram able to boil water. Our professor after mentioning that the group wanted to build wind turbines, suggested we use LabView and that a kit will be ordered. When the kit comes in on Monday the group will look into setting it up and writing out our own lab and proposal.
