SOLTEQ Equipment for Engineering Education & Research
THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF
LIQUIDS AND GASES UNIT
MODEL: HE 156
HE Thermal Conductivity of Liquids and Gases Unit (Model: HE 156) has been designed for students
T to determine the thermal conductivities of various liquids and gases. The unit comes complete with a
control panel and a test module which is basically a plug and jacket assembly. With an optional data
acquisition system, students shall be able to automatically collect experimental data and perform all the necessary
calculations to determine the thermal conductivity of the test liquid or gas.
DESCRIPTION and venting the test fluid. A thermocouple is inserted

into the plug near the external surface. The plug is
