Windy Joules

A kit originally developed for a project in the Australian Outback. Used to measure how much energy can be obtained from the natural environment in terms of solar and wind power.

• measures light level in milliwatts per square centimetre
• measures wind speed in revolutions per second
• logs light or wind values every 15 minutes over 24 hours
• calculates peak and average values
• can also be used as a simple anemometer

Microsoft Excel spreadsheet for plotting light levels & wind speeds and calculating 'available power'.
