Radiation cans are used to compare the difference in thermal conductivity between darker and lighter colours. One can is coloured black and the other coloured silver.
Fill the cans with tap water, place a thermometer in the top and see which can conducts the most heat, or fill with hot water to discover Newton’s law of cooling! Experiments: Cooling by Conduction, Cooling by Convection and Conduction, Heating by Radiation.
Measurements:
- Diameter of the opening of the can: 19mm
- Diameter of the base of the can: 40mm
- Total height of the can: 175mm
