Data for Heat Dissipiation Experiment
Constants
Hot plate temp (C) 500
Ambient (C) 20
Wind (ft/min) 105
Sun (radiation) n/a
Alluminum Plate: Length 40.25" Width 2" Thickness .25"
Distnace from base (hot plate edge) 2" 6" 8" Temperatures were taken with no forced air convection. Trial 1, 2, and 3 represents three sets of data at succesive time. Trial 1 = time (0) sec. All temps at Celcius.
Temp (trial 1) 55 33 31
Temp (trial 2) 78 35 34
Temp (trial 3) 111 39 35
Heat Dissipitation Alluminum Plate with forced air at 450-500 (ft/min)
Temp 102 32 34 Note: Fan can only cover 2" and 6" zone
Alluminum Rod: Diameter 3/8" Length 38.75"
Distnace from base (hot plate edge) 2" 4" 6" Note: During trial one, 2" was moved to the base to achieve a temp of 200. Then moved back to 2" away from base. All temps at Celcius.
