Marcet Boiler Unit

Product Description

Marcet Boiler UnitDescription of Marcet BoilerThe Marcet Boiler is a simple experiment to show the relationship between pressure and temperature for saturated steam for comparison with published results. The apparatus consists of a rigid frame containing an insulated pressure vessel and an instrumentation and control unit. The frame also has extra space for the optional VDAS interface.The electrically-heated boiler holds water. As the water temperature increases, so does the pressure in the boiler. A transducer and a thermocouple measure the boiler pressure and temperature. A digital display shows the values in both SI and traditional units.The Marcet Boiler includes a special-purpose glass window. It allows students to see the internal construction of the vessel, to see the boiling process and to check the water level.Experiments ofMarcet Boiler Unit Variation of saturated steam pressure with temperature Confirmation of the Antoine Equation Technical Details ofMarcet Boiler Unit Nett dimensions: 800 mm wide x 410 mm front to back x 640 mm high and 40 kg Approximate packed volume: 0.5 m3 and 50 kg Digital display: a.Shows temperature in Kelvin and Celsius b.
