Heat transfer by radiation

Heat radiation involves energy transfer via electromagnetic waves, occurring even in a vacuum. This unit investigates radiation intensity across different surfaces using a concentrated light beam and a thermopile.

• investigation of heat radiation on various metallic specimens
• adjustable halogen lamp with parabolic reflector
• thermopile on a movable carriage for intensity measurement
• integrated microprocessor-based instrumentation
• software for data acquisition and system operation
• LAN/WLAN network capability for remote observation
