Radiometer
The Radiometer, also known as a Crookes Radiometer or light mill, is a classic scientific demonstration device that converts radiation (visible and infrared light) into mechanical motion by spinning small vanes inside a glass bulb. It works on the principle of thermal transpiration, where gas molecules near the hotter surface gain extra kinetic energy, producing a net force that pushes the rotor. This device is for laboratory testing, medical procedures, and scientific research, providing a unique demonstration of energy conversion from light to motion.
