Heat Transfer From A Pin Fin Apparatus
DESCRIPTION
The setup is designed to study the heat transfer in a pin fin. It consists of pin type fin fitted in duct. A fan is provided on one side of duct to conduct experiments under forced draft conditions. Airflow rates can be varied with the help of damper provided in the duct. A heater heats one end of fin and heat flows to another end. Heat input to the heater is given through Variac. Digital Temperature Indicator measures temperature distribution along the fin.
Stefan Boltzmann Apparatus
DESCRIPTION
The apparatus is designed to determine the Stefan Boltzman constant.The apparatus consists of a hemisphere fixed to a Bakelite plate, the outer surface of which forms the jacket to heat it.Hot water to heat the hemisphere is obtained form a hot water tank, which is fixed above the hemisphere. The copper test disc is introduced at the center of hemisphere.The temperatures of hemisphere and test disc are measured with the help of temperature sensors.
Thermal Conductivity of Liquids and Gases
DESCRIPTION
The Thermal Conductivity of Liquids and Gases Unit has been designed for students to determine the thermal conductivities of various liquids and gases. The unit comes complete with a control panel and a test module which is basically a plug and jacket assembly. With an optional data acquisition system, students shall be able to automatically collect experimental data and perform all the necessary calculations to determine the thermal conductivity of the test liquid or gas.
