Radiant Transfer Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-VATP-11381
Quick Answer: The Radiant Transfer Apparatus has two parts, an aluminium experiment frame and a control box, and measures radiant transfer from both a heat source and a light source. A movable thermopile and a movable lux meter read the radiation at varying distances.

About This Product
Moving the detector away from each source lets students check the inverse square law for both heat and light radiation. The extra plates show how surface finish changes emissivity and absorptivity and how the area factor affects radiant heat transfer between surfaces.
