Nataurel convection and Radiation apparatus.
Nataurel convection and Radiation apparatus
The setup consists of a brass tube fitted
in a rectangular duct in a vertical fashion. The duct is open at the top and
bottom, and forms an enclosure and serves the purpose of undisturbed
surrounding. One side of the duct is fitted with a transparent good quality
Acrylic window for visualization. An electric heating element is kept in the
vertical tube that in turns heats the tube surface. The heat is lost from the
tube to the surrounding air by natural convection. The temperature of the
vertical tube is measure by Temperature Sensors and displayed by a Digital
Temperature Indicator with multichannel switch. The heat input to the heater is
measured by a Digital Ammeter and a Digital Voltmeter and is varied by a
Variac. The tube surface is polished to minimize the radiation losses
