WL 362 Thermal Radiation Unit / PC Show data sheet (pdf file) Print page
Technical Description
The benchtop unit contains a blackbody emitter with a thermopile for the investigation of thermal radiation, a light source with luxmeter for illuminance measurements, and absorption plates with thermocouples for the investigation of Kirchhoff's laws. Colour filters and apertures extend the range of experiments. The measured values are displayed digitally on the measuring unit. At the same time, the measured data can be transferred to a PC for further processing. A data acquisition card and software are included.
Learning Objectives / Experiments
