Heat Transfer

Heat Transfer

Purpose

In this experiment, students will discover the different rates at which materials can conduct heat. Aluminum is a better conductor of heat than high-density foam.
 
Discussion
Materials have different properties when it comes to conducting heat than you might expect, how do the results of the lab change your understanding of heat transfer?
