SL 310 Cross-Flow Heat Exchanger educational lab equipment Thermal Laboratory Equipment
Clear experimental set-up for demonstrating the
Fundamental principles of heat transfer1
Processing of measured data on a PC1
Technical Description
The experimental unit mainly includes a vertical air
Duct. A fan draws the air through the duct.
Interchangeable heaters dissipate heat directly into the
Airflow. The following heater elements are included:
Pipe, pipe bundle and finned pipe. To investigate the
Effect of the flow in the pipe bundle, the heater insert
Can be positioned in different pipe rows.

Electronic sensors are used to take measurements.
The measured values are indicated digitally on the
Learning Objectives / Experiments
- investigation of convection processes
- comparison of heat transfer for different heating
Elements
- comparison between different heating elements
- demonstration of the relationship between heat
Transfer, area of heat transfer and flow velocity (Nusselt)
