Pool Boiling Apparatus
The apparatus consists of a hot water bath. A heater is fixed in the water bath to heat the water at desired temperature. The temperature of the bath is controlled with the help of a digital temperature controller. A Test heater is also provided with an arrangement to replace the heater element with ease, as and when required. This test heater (Nichrome Wire) is connected to mains via a dimmer stat and a voltmeter, to read the voltage. A micro controller based peak detector has been provided to measure the maximum current during the process. The heater wire can be viewed through a transparent window.
