Abstract :
The paper deals with the design, set up and functioning of the remote experiment “Energy transformation” measured via Internet. The experiment is free accessible on http://remotelab10.truni.sk as a part of the e-laboratory at the Department of Physics, Faculty of Education, Trnava University in Trnava, Slovakia. The experiment is based on Internet School Experimental System (ISES) and built using the environment Easy Remote ISES. The main task of the experiment is the study of functioning of individual energy transducers and their energy transformation efficiencies of three types of energy transformation - solar to electrical, electrical to chemical energy of hydrogen and chemical energy of hydrogen to electrical energy. In the results we give the experimental results in graphical form and their evaluation towards the energy conversion efficiency.
