Fête de la science / Science festival

The Fête de la science, i.e. the Science Festival, is a national event which takes place each year in October. CETHIL participates with a local event from Wednesday morning to Saturday. During the working days school kids can come, while the general audience is expected to join on Saturday. About 200 to 400 persons are able to visit us and discover the animations, which are all realted to heat transfer and heat-to-useful energy conversion.

Menu:

  • fun experiments realted to temperature and heat transfer
  • a maquette (about 1 m3) of an energy-autonomous house, realised at the Lycée Albert-Camus in Rillieux-La-Pape
  • a Stirling heat engine (the "locomotive"...) and a thermoelectric converter

If you cannot wait...
