Unsteady State Heat Transfer

Unsteady State Heat Transfer

•    A controller switches the power to an electric heater to keep a constant ‘bulk’ water temperature inside the vessel. A temperature controller maintains a constant water temperature for the test shape.
•    This gives multiple experiments in heat transfer.
•    Precision instruments measure the temperatures at key points on clear multi-line displays.
•    The test shapes are of different dimensions and material to give different heat transfer areas and thermal conductivities.  
•    The student immerses the test shape and measures the transient temperature changes caused by the sudden immersion.
•    They then immerse the other test shapes and compare the results to find how their different surface area, shape and thermal properties affect the heat transfer.
•    The vessel has a large volume of water compared to the test shapes, so their immersion has a negligible affect on the bulk temperature.
