Steam Turbine Model

A small project a had to do for school. It's an alcohol stove made from two soda cans boiling water inside a normal aluminum bottle I got at Target. I poked a very small hole on the top of the cap for pressure. The steam is running a computer cooling fan I got at best buy. When the pressurized steam hits the fan blades at the right angle, the fan spins fast enough to produce enough electricity to light up the LED lights. The bottle itself is held up by 3 toggle bolts held together by bent pieces of a wire hanger.
