THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF METAL ROD APPARATUS
Model Number : EIE-HT-01
The apparatus consists of a metal bar, whose one end is heated by an electric heater & the other end is kept in a cooling water chamber, which acts as heat sink. The test section, i.e. middle portion of bar is provided with thermocouples. The test section is well insulated within a shell of asbestos powder to minimize radial heat loss.
Experimentation:-
- Determination of Thermal Conductivity of given bar at various temperatures
Description:-
- The apparatus consists of a metal bar, whose one end is heated by an electric heater & the other end is kept in a cooling water chamber, which acts as heat sink.
