The CLRE02 Calorimeter is used for determining the electrical equivalent of heat.
Calorimeters are used to explore the basic physics of heat and energy. Experiment topics include heat and energy interchange, heat and temperature, heat capacity and specific heat, latent heat, and much more. This Electric Calorimeter is well suited for classwork on all of these topics by its robust construction and attention to detail for ease of use. Can be used as either an electric calorimeter or a class standard calorimeter.
