Heat Transfer at a Cylinder in Transverse Flow
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-10004
The Heat Transfer at a Cylinder in Transverse Flow accessory (SKU JA-FMAHLE-10004), supplied by JaincoLab, measures convective heat transfer from a cylinder placed across an air stream. A copper cylinder with an integrated temperature sensor is first heated to about 120 °C in an oven that holds the temperature constant, then placed in the air-flow tube to cool. This cylinder in cross flow set records the cooling curve, from which the heat transfer coefficient is worked out.
Specifications
The cross-flow heat transfer accessory is specified by a copper cylinder of 20 mm outer diameter and 120 mm length, a 100 W oven and a temperature measuring range of 0 to 200 °C, with display and analysis in software. The base air-flow unit is confirmed on the quotation.
