About This Product
With one block of each metal, the bundle allows the specific heat capacity of aluminium, brass, copper and mild steel to be found and compared. An immersion heater fits the central hole, and a thermometer or temperature sensor goes in the smaller hole. Thermometers, calorimeter jackets in 50 mm and 75 mm sizes, and an immersion heater are listed as associated products. Besides buyers across India, the Block Calorimeter Bundle can be exported to institutions in Philippines, Kenya, Turkey, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Lithuania and Poland.
