Extended Surface Heat Transfer (SMT-HT-20E)
This apparatus features a long horizontal rod heated at one end, creating an extended surface for heat transfer analysis. Thermocouples placed at regular intervals along the rod enable accurate measurement of the temperature profile. The rod’s small diameter relative to its length ensures one-dimensional heat conduction, minimizing tip heat loss. This setup is ideal for studying pin-fin heat transfer behavior in solids. It supports a touch LCD display for real-time visualization of data. The unit also connects to software for advanced computer-based data acquisition and analysis.
