Free And Forced Convection From Flat Pin And Fin Plates

A heated flat plate with surface thermo couple may be directly compared with a similar pinned plate and finned plate also fitted with a surface thermo couple.
A bench top accessory designed to allow students to experimentally investigate both free (natural) convection and forced convection. Three plates with integral heaters and temperature sensors are also supplied that are designed to fit in the central aperture in the wind tunnel. The accessory includes a small, variable velocity wind tunnel with a digital velocity meter and a central aperture.
