This experimental setup allows for the study of heat propagation in different metal rods in a steady state.
The sealed metal enclosure ensures the vertical positioning of the rods through a simple clamping system. The submersible pump (provided) generates a water flow from a temperature-controlled bath (not provided) to the enclosure. This keeps the ends of the rods at a fixed temperature.
The other ends of the bars can be left exposed to the air or maintained at a constant temperature using a second enclosure (ref. 253 146 to be ordered separately).
Steady state is reached in about twenty minutes.

The metal rods are partially covered with a low-reflectivity black strip, allowing for simplified measurements with a thermal camera. This method provides the advantage of accessing the temperature of all points along each rod at any given time, unlike what can be achieved with typical temperature sensors like thermocouples.

To delve further, experiments can be conducted in transient state (kinetic monitoring) using the enclosure plugs (ref. 253 148 to be ordered separately).

Caractéristiques techniques

Thermal conductivity model characteristics:

Observation after approximately 10 minutes of steady state
Validation of a theoretical one-dimensional model of
steady-state thermal diffusion, taking into account
thermal losses in the air using
a Newton's law. The expected temperature profile in
each rod is exponential and the
characteristic decay distance depends on the metal type.
