school project - build hottub

Jun 03, 2006 3 Replies

Hi, I am doing an elementary school grade 8 school project and have to build a hottub using hydrolics and heat - no open flames. Does anyone have any suggestions where to start? I am having a hard time finding information. Thanks.



Read up on a dude named "Joule" And a topic called the "Mechanical equivalent of heat".

If it's your project I'd advise you to learn the correct spelling of hydraulics.

guess we need some more details. A full-size hot tub is kinda hard to make. You need a tub, a BIG pump, some sort of heater, a thermostat, and some sort of bacterial control system.

If you're building just a scale model, I'd suggest an aquarium, an aquarium pump, an aquarium heater, and some clorox tablets.
