Discussion Heat Conduction Unit Solids.
In the second experiment, only in 2 contact points temperature and thermal conductivity are measured.
In our experiments measured conductivity of brass and VA-steel in 2 contact points were not quite
identical with given values in manual. This can be caused by temperature inaccuracies due to sensor
variations and displays with small deviations. In the third experiment, the temperature and conductivity
were measured in the same contact points, too. However this time it was with smaller diameter
cylinder. The same as the second experiment same graph was witnessed in this experiment as in the
manual.
For the radial heat conduction, thermal conductivity was measured in 6 different points with the same
material. The values were again drastically higher than it is given in literature. However, the line path in
graph was exactly the same as in the manual.
