Description

The trainer comprises original components as used in heating and sanitation systems and is therefore relevant in practice.

There are five expansion sections. In one of the sections, a compensator can be inserted. The elongation of the pipes is indicated on dial gauges. A force measuring device enables the expansion force to be determined.

 

Learning Objectives/Experiments

Thermal expansion of different materials such as PVC, PE, copper and steel

Determination of thermal expansion coefficients and the expansion force

Measurement of pipe elongation

Effect of varying pipe diameter

Expansion compensator

 

Features

Investigation of thermal expansion of different pipe sections

Pipe sections can be individually selected using ball valves

Water connections made using quick-release couplings

Specification
