- Water tank
Material: Acrylic board walls
1mm thick pyrex glass base and coverHeight: 6cm Depth: 20cm Width: 20cm The tank was built like a set of nested boxes, so by changing the middle box, the depth of the working fluid can also be changed.3)
- Working fluid
- Water
- Visualization
- Liquid crystal capsules were used to make the temperature visible.
- Experimental process
- After placing the water tank on the rotating table, by putting cold water in the section above the working fluid to be observed, and warm water below it, a temperature gap is caused, which results in convection.
