Description and Specification for Lab Tenders
Thermal Conductivity Of Metal Rod.
The experimental set up consists of metal bar, one end of which is
heated by an electric heater while the other end of the bar projects
inside the cooling water jacket. A cylindrical shell filled with the
asbestos insulating powder surrounds the middle portion of the bar. The
temperature of the bar is measured at different sections. Heat Input to
the heater is given through variac and measured by Digital Voltmeter
& Digital Ammeter. By varying the heat input rates, wide range of
experiments can be performed. Water under constant head condition is
circulated through the jacket and its flow rate and temperature rise is
noted.
