ASR3029 Heat Conduction and Convection equipment teaching Thermal Demo Equipment
The unit shall perform the following experiments and investigations:
Learning Objectives / Experiments
effect of heat conduction and convection on heat transfer
effect of free and forced convection on heat transfer
calculate convective heat transfers
effect of different materials on heat conduction
effect of sample length on heat transfer Specification
[1]investigate heat conduction and convection using the example of a cooling fin
[2]cooling fin: sample heated at one end, made of metal
[3]6 samples made of different materials and with different lengths
[4]6 fans for experiments with forced convection
[5]continuously adjustable heating power and fan power
[7]due to integrated microprocessor-based instrumentation no additional devices with error-prone wiring are required
