Characteristics

	1. The model is an easy to understand representation of the principals of renewable energy that use heat energy from the sun stored in ocean, and low temperature heat sources such as hot spring water.
	2. The model can reenact actual power generation by preparing hot and cold water for the system.
	3. The main components of the system such as the heat exchanger and turbine, are made with transparent materials so that the evaporation and condensation of working fluid can be seen.
	4. Generated electricity is confirmed through the use of current and voltmeters. The load can be switched at the LED/Blub Board. You can also demonstrate power generation by connecting an LED lit diorama.
