This Heat Conductivity Apparatus includes four metal bars-steel, brass, aluminium, and copper-each designed to demonstrate varying rates of thermal conductivity. When placed in hot water, each metal bar conducts heat at a different speed, easily observable using the included liquid crystal thermometers.

Housed in a compact plastic unit, the set is a safe and effective way to introduce comparative thermal conduction without open flames. Perfect for primary or secondary classrooms studying energy transfer, material science, or applied physics.

Educational Benefits:

  • Demonstrates comparative thermal conductivity
  • Introduces scientific measurement tools (thermometers)
  • Encourages hypothesis testing and analysis
  • Reinforces energy transfer and heat flow concepts

Classroom Ideas:

  • Rank metals by heat conduction rate
  • Test with stopwatch and thermometers for accuracy
  • Discuss everyday applications of conductive materials

Specifications:

  • Metals included: Steel, Brass, Aluminium, Copper
  • Includes: Liquid crystal thermometers
  • Housing: Plastic enclosure
  • Note: Use with boiling water (not open flame)
  • Units: Set of 4
