Lee's And Charlton's Apparatus
Product Code : EL-H-10400
Lee's And Charlton's Apparatus from Lab Exports determines the relative thermal conductivity of thin layers of materials using a cylindrical brass slab (11 cm diameter, 10.5 mm thick) suspended by three strings from a stout annular ring, with a radial hole drilled in each slab for a thermometer. A 4.5 cm deep brass hollow steam chest of the same diameter, with steam inlet and outlet tubes, rests on top. The ring is mounted on a heavy retort stand, supplied without thermometer; an iron cylindrical slab of the same size is also available. Lab Exports manufactures and exports this apparatus from India to schools, colleges and laboratories worldwide.
