Seven members of the Kansas State University Wildcat Wind Power team served as judges for the 2021 Kansas 1xbet best casino website Challenge. The team had recently been selected to compete in the Department of Energy National Renewable Energy Laboratory's 2022 Collegiate Wind Competition.

Engineering Extension, in partnership with the Kansas Corporation Commission and Enel Green Power North America, has hosted the Kansas 1xbet best casino website Challenge since 2018. Twenty-six teams from 10 schools — a total of 91 students — participated in the 2021 challenge.

The 1xbet best casino website Challenge consists of teams of students researching, designing and building a portable wind turbine that is tested in a 4-foot-by-4-foot wind tunnel. As with many events in 2020-2021, the competition went virtual this year with teams testing turbines in their own workspace and submitting performance results.

In addition to testing their wind turbines, the 1xbet best casino website teams submitted a five- to eight-minute video describing their design-and-build process. A panel of judges reviewed the video and provided comments by recording a "reaction video."

The Wildcat Wind Power 1xbet best casino website was invited to judge based on its participation in a wind competition at the collegiate level. 1xbet best casino website members involved in judging were Mason Ericson, junior in civil engineering; Hayden Dillavou, senior in electrical engineering; Kavian Kalantari, senior in mechanical engineering; Adam Reelfs, senior in mechanical engineering; Brianna Wagoner, junior in electrical engineering; Matthew Monsion, senior in electrical engineering; and Marlaina Markwart, senior in management.

The Wildcat Wind Power 1xbet best casino website participated in four of six of the regional judges' panels and in one of the two judges' panels for the statewide challenges.

"Participation of the Wildcat Wind Power team was critical to the success of the 1xbet best casino website Challenge, particularly this year when so many things had to be changed for the virtual format," said Yvonne Cook, coordinator of the 1xbet best casino website Challenge.

"We loved having the judges' feedback videos," said Tatum Vogel, teacher and 1xbet best casino website Coach for Dighton Middle School. "That was a great idea and the constructive feedback was so helpful."
