Raegan's project was chosen to be displayed for the science fair at her school!! The teacher of each 4-6th grade class got to nominate 3 projects from their students based on the idea, presentation, and notebook for their project. Raegan chose to experiment with the temperature of the water being able to turn a turbine faster. She got the idea from the Glenn Canyon Dam tour we took in October of last year. By changing the temperature of the water, will the turbine spin faster therefore generating more electricity than colder water? Her results said yes! A 40 degree increase in temperature resulted in an average of 1 whole second faster in her multiple trials. Great job, Raegan!!
