3.8 Storage of the electric energy
We explore in this experiment whether the energy generated by the steam
engine can be stored.
Picturing the process of storage as followed:
Again we take the example of the water bucket. Now the hole on the bottom
of the bucket is replaced through a crane. The level of the water raise when
the crane is closed and one continues filling in water with a ladle. The water
bucket (capacitor) represents the storage; now at any time when opening the
crane we can take out water (voltage).
3.8.1 Charging the capacitor storage through the steam engine
There are different types of energy storages. One possibility of storage we
find in the electrolytic. The advantage is that they last a long time. There
capacity of storage is little compared to a battery. Though for the
experiments it works well and one can explore the principle of storage
within a short time term.
Note: To explore the effect of charge realistically, please discharge the
electrolytic before each experiment. Attention: the discharge might create
a harmless sparkle.

screwdriver
