Radiometers

The solar radiometer demonstrates through motion how light or solar energy can be transformed into mechanical energy or motion. It was invented in 1873 by Sir William Crookes.

Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but transformed. This physical principle is demonstrated on the radiometer.


Sunlight heats the interior, the air rises, and the elevation of the air is transformed into mechanical energy that moves the metal lamellae inside.
