Principle

When fluids or gases are heated, convection occurs. The warmed medium rises due to its smaller density. A circulation tube is filled with water and heated on one side. A drop of food color makes the stream visible. Heat convection in air is demonstrated with a spiral over a flame.

Benefits

  • Optimised for demonstration experiments: Transformation from horizontal into vertical direction
  • Secure fastening of burners and hot vessels
  • Glass equipment, liquid levels and flowing liquids can be observed easily on the plain background
