Block Calorimeter - Aluminium
Block Calorimeter - Aluminium
Product code: HE1008268
Product Description
This Aluminium Block Calorimeter can be used for the experimental determination of the specific heat capacity of aluminium.
The block is drilled with two holes: a large central hole, 12.5mm diameter for an immersion heater (B8A42584), and a smaller hole, 7.5mm diameter to suit a thermometer or temperature sensor.
- Specific Heat: 878J/kg/K
- Diameter: 75mm
- Heat Capacity: 86
- Mass: 1kg
- Accuracy: ±2%
- Thermometer Hole Dimensions: 7.5mm diameter, 72mm depth
- Immersion Heater Hole Dimensions: 12.5mm diameter, 75mm depth
Alternative Block Calorimeters are available:
- Copper - B8H25456
- Mild Steel - B8H25444
- Brass - B8R06813
- Calorimeter Bundle (1 each of Copper, mild Steel, Brass, Aluminium) - B8R06830
Associated Products:
- Calorimeter Jackets - B8R07701
- Immersion Heater - B8A42584
- Thermometers - B8R01905
- Key Stage 3 Physics - Energy: Comparing amounts of energy transferred (J, kJ, kW hour)
- Key Stage 4 Physics - Structure of Matter: Calculating energy changes involved on heating, using specific heat capacity; and those involved in changes of state, using specific latent heat.
- Key Stage 4 Physics - Energy: Energy changes in a system involving heating, doing work using forces, or doing work using an electric current: calculating the stored energies and energy changes involved. Power as the rate of transfer of energy.
