Searle's Thermal Conductivity Apparatus
Product Code : EL-H-10399
Searle's Thermal Conductivity Apparatus from Lab Exports determines the thermal conductivity of a metal using a cylindrical copper rod, heated at one end by a steam jacket and cooled at the other by a stream of water flowing through a spiral tube. The rod is fitted in a wooden case lined with felt, with a removable front for access, and is supplied without thermometers and steam boiler. It is available in three rod sizes: 30 cm long with 3.7 cm, 2.5 cm or 1.8 cm diameter. Lab Exports manufactures and exports this apparatus from India to schools, colleges and laboratories worldwide.
