About This Product
One kit lets a teacher move through the main thermal topics in turn, from measuring temperature to comparing how heat travels by conduction, convection and radiation. Students record temperature, time and expansion readings for each set-up and compare the results. Educational Instrument can dispatch the Thermology kit to laboratories in South Africa, Suriname, Vanuatu, Brazil and Equatorial Guinea.
