About This Product
In use, an immersion heater placed in the central hole warms the brass, and a thermometer or temperature sensor in the smaller hole records how its temperature changes. Mild steel, copper and aluminium blocks are also listed, together with a bundle holding one block of each metal. The Block Calorimeter - Brass is available for supply within India and for export to Trinidad and Tobago, Rwanda, Honduras, South Korea, Tunisia and Egypt.
