Thermal Expansion of Solids

IPS section 3.6 first edition. Kit demonstrates that materials expand at different rates when heated. The apparatus consists of a number of long tubes through which steam, generated by an alcohol burner, is passed. The expansion movement of the tube causes a calibrated dial to rotate against an indicator point. Kit consists of 5 tubes each of 3 different types (15 tubes Al, Cu and glass), rubber and neoprene tubing, calibrated dials, clamps, drip pans and fasteners. With instructions.
