Demonstration kit Solar thermal energy conversion
Demonstrating Solar Thermal Energy Conversion and Heat Transfer
Use: Demonstration experiments on thermal radiation, heat absorption, convection, solar collectors and the use of solar energy for water heating
With the Demonstration kit Solar thermal energy conversion, you can teach the fundamentals of using solar heat as a renewable energy source through clear demonstration experiments. The set shows how solar energy can be used for water heating with a solar collector.
The experiments first cover fundamental thermal processes such as thermal radiation, absorption of thermal radiation and convection. Building on these principles, students investigate how a solar collector works. Different experimental setups make it possible to demonstrate and compare their effectiveness.
The equipment includes a demonstration solar collector, heat exchanger and circulation pump. Experiments can demonstrate both a solar collector with thermosiphon circulation and a setup with pump circulation and a heat exchanger.
A comprehensive teacher's guide supports classroom use with illustrations and descriptions of the experimental setups, detailed experiment instructions and explanations of the results
