Reliant Lab Joules Calorimeter for Thermodynamic Education

• Product Quantity : 1 Piece
• Product Material : Copper
• Size : 5 x 7.5 cm

Features

• High Purity Copper Vessel: Features a polished internal copper container that provides excellent thermal conductivity and a known specific heat for accurate calculations.
• Double Walled Insulation: The inner vessel is placed inside a larger outer wooden or metallic container with an air gap or insulating material to minimize heat loss via radiation and conduction.
• Heating Coil Compatibility: Often used with a specialized immersion heating coil to demonstrate the electrical equivalent of heat.

Applications

• Specific Heat Capacity: Primarily used to determine the specific heat capacity of liquids and solid fragments using the method of mixtures.
• Latent Heat Measurement: Utilized to find the latent heat of fusion of ice or the latent heat of vaporization of steam.
• Calibration of Sensors: Acts as a controlled thermal environment for calibrating digital temperature sensors and thermocouples.
• Thermodynamic Education: Serves as a standard apparatus for teaching the laws of calorimetry and energy conservation in physics curricula.
