Description
Heat Transfer by Conduction
Heat Transfer by Conduction In this experiment, we determine the thermal conductivity of copper rod. The rate of heat transferred through a metal rod depends upon many factors like:
The length of the metal rod.
The cross sectional area of the rod.
The temperature difference between the two ends of the rod.
